Arif is a hole in the wall and my ratings and reviews are in that context.
After seeing it on Google I wanted to go and drove into Dallas to try it out. It's a little hard to find as the entry doesn't face eastbound Park Lane, but well worth the trip.
The dining area is small and functional. Table
Phenomenal Ethiopian food that is authentic and extremely well made. Pleasure meeting the cook and owner who welcomed us into her restaurant and made sure our questions were answered. The menu is very short but appears there are endless possibilities in combinations which can feel overwhelming.

Popped in for dinner and liked that my food came quickly unlike some Ethiopian restaurants. It is very small inside with only 4 tables and some counter space, not much ambiance or privacy if that is what you are looking for. I had the vegetarian platter and the food did not disappoint. Everything wa
If you ever or never have tried Ethiopian food, you are missing out! This is a great 1st experience for traditional family style meal! Wonderful prices and amazing staff! Don't miss out on this opportunity to expand your taste buds! 👌 It was a little warm inside the restaurant but not uncomfortable,
Tiny little place, but you can tell the lady that runs it loves making food and serving. The flavors were amazing, and having never tried Ethiopian food before we asked for her suggestion on ordering. What she picked for us exceeded our expectations. 10/10 will def try again. Super affordable too! S
This was our first time trying Ethiopian food and the owner was so nice! It’s this small place tucked away in a shopping center that you wouldn’t expect to have great food but it does! We let the owner know we have never eaten there and she suggested the veggie combo and the beef or lamb tibbs. We g
Hole-in-the-wall, supremely authentic, and run by a very sweet and welcoming woman. After passing by an upscale Ethiopian restaurant in San Francisco, finally having Ethiopian food has been a thought rattling in the back of my head for a while. Finally had a chance during a pit stop at the Half-Pric
I absolutely love Arif Cafe, tebib is the owner. Her food is always fresh and her restaurant is always clean.
I went for lunch on a Sunday at 1:00pm. It’s a discreet location tucked in a small shopping area. The place was empty, and you seat yourself. There’s no menu, we just told her what we wanted. We’ve been to a couple places before and usually order the veggie combo and one or two meet portions. The la
We were traveling to dallas for the first time and were looking for a great place to dine. This ethiopian resturant was amazing very calming and relaxed atmosphere evreything was very comforting. The food itself was delicous so much to choose from. Great cuisine. The service was pleasent as well!!
The best Ethiopian place I’ve been to. Taste just like home and amazing service. Very respectful & loving. Will definitely visit again.
In a humble strip mall, you'll find a hearty owner, soothing music - and excellent Ethiopian-Eritrean cuisine, including vegetarian and vegan choices.
Excellent vegetarian food and good price. Will come back

Great authentic food. The owner cooks the food and is the sweetest lady.
This is exactly the kind of place I love— no frills, no pretension, just great food and genuine service. The vegetarian combo was excellent, and a lot of food, and the enjera was perfect. The owner runs the whole show- from making the food to serving it. She’s incredibly helpful and sweet, and reall
