I came to Chef Cafe regularly for 12 years, usually for the veggie combo, lamb tibs, kategna, or foul. Their foul and their gomen wot were the best versions I have ever had of those dishes, and were among the best foods I have eaten in my whole life. I tried to stop there last weekend to get some takeout foul for breakfast, but their phone number was disconnected, and when I got there I saw inside had been gutted. I saw someone walking around inside, maybe doing some demo work, so I knocked on the door and asked what happened. He told me the family who ran it retired. I'm not sure how much he actually knew, though—he may have just been a contractor working for the landlord. I hope the family who ran this place knows how much joy they brought me over the years. I will remember Chef Cafe forever.

MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE PLACE! The owner knows my whole family, they ask about my kids and husband every time I’m in there! Telling you I’ve never met such nicer people they give you that warm home feeling! No to mention the FOOD IS AMAZING! I told them I was trying to learn how to cook it at home and the fist time i failed but Chef gave me tips and walked me thru how to make my favorite from there. And for that I will forever be grateful because Lamb Tibbs is my husband’s favorite! They will forever have our business!

I strongly recommend Chef Cafe for excellent Ethiopian food! It had been multiple years since we had eaten here, and because very recently a visiting friend was craving Ethiopian, we visited again. We arrived and were warmly welcomed. We ordered multiple menu entrees for take out. Our order took less than 10 minutes to prepare, and the wait was worth it as every item we ordered was delicious! Each entree also came with generous portions of injera and salad, which was especially good. We will definitely be back soon, and recommend others try Chef Cafe!
