Good vegetarian options. I tried the abbeys vegetarian combo and baklava. The combo had 4 of the standard items one would get in a veggie Ethiopian combo (2 red and one yellow lentil, side made of cabbage carrot potato), some salad and also a dish made of okra which I really liked. The red lentils were really good. I also liked the baklava. The injera itself was a little sourer than what I would ideally like but overall great food.

Delicious Eritrean food! Definitely the kind of place to order 3-4 dishes with a group of friends and try a bit of everything!
All of their main dishes were delicious but make sure to get the Sambosas while you're there!
Overall price is solid, food is delicious and the owner is wonderful so come support a local business!

I enjoyed the food and the ambiance of the outdoor seating area. Everyone that worked there was friendly and helpful. My friend and I shared the Abby's veggie combo (vegan). My friend also had the Shrimp Tibsy, which he liked. They take reservations online through Yelp. Worth a visit if you are in the area.

The best veggie combo, mushrooms and Okra I've ever had in this style. Abbeys combo is my go to. And the owners are so amazing. Never disappointed

Absolutely delicious. We got Abby’s veggie combo, which fed two. Packed with flavor and cooked with love. Was pleased to see so many vegetarian options too! Lovely staff. Will be back again soon.

Nice Ethiopian food and very good service. The food is little spicy, but kids really like it. Definitely we will go again to try different dishes.

A wonderful place to try Ethiopian food for the first time.
I had lamb and red lentils because I couldn't decide which sounded better. I think I liked the lentils more, but when the lamb mixed with some vinegar on the plate (I think it was the salad dressing) I had one of my favorite bites!
I enjoyed using their flatbread as my utensils too, it was not intimidating at all and allowed me to feel kind of like a kid again eating with my hands. Be aware the flatbread does have a fermented flavor, which for me, took a moment to get used to.

Absolutely no complaints here. I had the Lamb Tibsy and it was delicious. Nice tender little chunks of lamb swimming in an outstanding red sauce of onions fried in butter with a bunch of excellent seasonings. Great portion, great injera, great spices.
I was just left wishing that I had a bigger stomach so I could go back for seconds. Seriously good stuff and a fun dining experience. I'll be back!
