Review Addis Bar & Grill - Louisville

I loved this place. The food is fantastic. Very high quality food and the portions for the main meal were huge (probably enough for 2 meals for the majority of people). I tried the kufta and chicken plate (with hummus, rice, and salad) as well as the baklava. The chicken was super tender and delicious. The garlic oil sauce gave it extra moisture, but it was already great the way it is. Cooked to perfection. The chunks are a bit big, but easy to eat. The kufta was equally delicious. It had a bit more seasoning than the chicken, which I liked. Once again, great flavors. They give you a fair amount of rice which is very fluffy and well cooked. It came with a vibrant little salad. It was fine, nothing too crazy. I really liked their take on croutons. They were more crispy than the average crouton and added a ton of savory flavor. Great hummus that was creamy and flavorful. Really what set this place apart from others was the service. I was trying to find this place and randomly ran into the owner, who helped me find it. He was very nice and talked to me about his life, the restaurant, the food, and his experiences in Pittsburgh. He even gave me a free drink! What a great guy. All in all, I highly recommend this place. It's run by awesome people and the food is also super tasty. Very reasonable prices, high quality food, and great portions.

We went for office lunch. We placed order over phone and when we reached there it was still not ready. But it was due to heavy crowd on that day I believe. The manager was trying to do his best and take orders. We ordered lamb kebab, shrimp masala, fish masala and Chana with fajitas. Food: taste wise it was good. Lamb could have been better. Fish masala was great. Ambience: Ok OK. Don't expect much with the Ambience. Location: it's on 4th main street road so that is close to our offices. Overall it's good to try.

Can’t imagine a more tender or tastier lamb kabob. Hummus and salad with it were excellent as well, and the bed of rice underneath was perfectly cooked.

Absolutely delicious!! Everything has amazing flavor. I had Chicken Kebab, with rice and hummus - extra pita and tzatziki sauce. O. M. G. You have to try!!

Peace! Internets, this spot is poppington. Can’t go wrong! Chicken kabab w the rice and the fire humus! B faithfully been coming here for a few wks now. BELIVE THE HYPE !

Thinking of eating here? Stop thinking and just go. The service is amazing and the food is dance in your seat good. I wasn’t sure what to get and Addi said his curry was the best… he wasn’t wrong. Although, I doubt anything in the menu would disappoint! Just go. You won’t regret it.

This was a great little spot to grab some fast lunch. I got the Kufta and Chicken which came over a really nice dish of yellow rice and included hummus, salad and a pita. I had leftovers, and all that with a drink was just under twenty dollars. I would absolutely come back again!

Delicious and healthy Ethiopian and Mediterranean food! So very happy to find this place! Deliciously seasoned vegetarian, and non-vegetarian food. A choice of rice, or injera with some dishes, and everything was 😋

I have very specific dietary needs. This place was very accommodating to withhold all the carbs from my meal at my request. The steak kabob was delicious and the salad was fresh with homemade vinaigrette dressing. The place is a little hard to find but well worth the search.

Absolutely love this place! Great, authentic food with the best humus I’ve ever had in my life and believe that’s say a lot, for I am well traveled.

Really good food. Baklava just ok and quite a small piece for the price. Overall, pretty good and would go back.

Love this place! Today was my husband and I's first time eating here! Nice and quiet atmosphere. The food was very very good! Can't complain! It was very nice that the bar is COMPLETELY SEPARATE from the restaurant. Family friendly!

I got the lamb kebabs and they were perfectly cooked and delicious. I ordered two orders of hummus to take home to have for snacking, and only one of them made it home. In my opinion, the very best hummus in the Louisville area. 12/13/2023 Again, I go there every 2 or 3 weeks when I work downtown. Got the lamb kebobs with one extra chicken kebob. That way I have at least 1 meal extra, maybe a snack later. The lamb is beautifully cooked with amazing flavor and the chicken is one of the most tender, juicy, flavorful I have had in any restaurant of any style. And finally I cannot say enough about the best hummus in Louisville or within 100 miles. They make it fresh daily, I hear, and it shows. Please never leave me.. er.. us. Great service, great owners and nice and clean place.

Cozy place to eat, very authentic cuisine and super friendly staff. Average size dining area, try to arrive before 12 or you will have a long wait... the food is that good.....

The lamb, for someone who hasn't had it often, was fantastic! The service was friendly and fast as well. All in all, a great place for lunch!

Even during a heavy lunch rush, service and food were prompt. Portions were generous, and everything was delicious! Would absolutely return.

Amazing relaxed place with very rich in flavor meals i love this place i come here at least twice a week. People are very nice and if you dont know about Ethiopian food they are more than happy to explain in person what you are getting. Keep in mind this place is very popular and it get very busy.

Absolutely fantastic food. I got the Athenian Chicken and it was great, not spicy and a really nice creamy sauce. Their hummus is good as well.

Amazing really. Best Med food I've had in a long time

This restaurant was a great place! Definitely amazing food for vegans and vegetarians! Totally authentic, the owner and his wife are both from Ethiopia. Rumor has it the bar next door could be opening up at night here soon..

Love this place and the owner is very personable and nice. The food is awesome.

The wait was 45 min long and then the owner wanted to come out and yell we were eating it the wrong way and grabbed a knife to start cutting our food.

Great lunch venue. I am addicted to their kabobs. Friendly staff. Never had a bad experience here.

Falafels are flipping incredible.... I'm so stuffed but I'm still cramming it down my neck

Delicious hummus, many vegetarian options, fresh food. Friendly staff. I look forward to see this place grow. Hidden gem :)

Athenian chicken with a side of curry is my fav. Sometimes the wait is long but at the end its worth it. Fresh all the time. You wont be disappointed.

Amazing food! Great atmosphere... will return soon!!!
