Had a catered vegan meal yesterday, for 30 people or so, by them. I'm not vegetarian and neither is Abyssinia, but I was extremely satisfied with a delicious, wildly creative, diverse bounty. The owner served us a well-organized buffet, and then roasted coffee beans on the stovetop, and brewed for us the perfect little cups of richness to top it all off. Eat there. Period.
Abyssinia is one of our favorite restaurants. The ambiance is very low key, and the food is amazing. I love their combination platters, especially the vegetarian combination -- these include so many different foods to try at a very fair price. The owner is so wonderful and provides exceptional service.
Nice little place to try. Good sampler for vegetarian and non-vegetarian alike. Really nice, friendly service. I look forward to returning to try the coffee , Ethiopian beer and some of their desserts
I definitely recommend either dining in or calling your order in because I've had online ordering issues twice. Last year I ordered online, I arrived and the door was locked with no one there during operating hours, no updates anywhere online, had to get a refund through whatever third party ordering system I used. Today I ordered through their actual website, my husband arrived and they said they never got it, despite me having a receipt and a screenshot from my bank account showing they took money out, they tried to get him to pay twice. They said to just cancel the order online but that wasn't an option. They claimed they won't get the money for it which is crazy because where is the money I paid going then?! And weird that I should have to pay twice because of an issue with their website, that's something they need to sort out on their end. Onto the food, it was amazing! And a massive portion for an affordable price. I got one sambussa and the veggie combo, which had some lentil and veggie dishes on injera. The sambussa was spicy, everything was super flavorful and perfectly spiced! Would be great to share or to have as two meals!
So good and so lucky I found this place! Had a veggie platter and it was fantastic. Also had some tej at the hostess's recommendation, and that was phenomenal. If you haven't been here, and you are in Phoenix, make sure to stop by. You won't be disappointed!!!
Very kind staff, always welcoming, and great food. There was a very strong incense that was scenting the place, but we didn't mind it.
This place was great! It was very authentic, and yet they have many options that are not that spicy. Everything was delicious, fast, and the service was super friendly. Would recommend 100%!
Was stunned at the food! 10/10 experience. Went late on a Saturday and service was great. Was cute for a date night, because the plates can be served family style or individual
