Ate in this wonderful Ethiopian restaurant last night with my husband. Best lamb that I have ever eaten. You can not get a better cup of freshly roasted and ground coffee any place else in town. True espresso! The owner and his wife are very sweet and wonderful people serving food that they learned to make back home in Ethiopia. The ambience is very relaxed and the jazz music was exceptional. The food ranges from mild to super spicy and served up on a delightfully light sourdough plate, which you will eventually use to wrap and eat your food their traditional way. I plan to stop back over there tomorrow for more coffee. Best prices hands down for really large portions. Teddy and Rohoa thank you for your hospitality and kindness. May your restaurant "Beautiful Flower" overflow with business and flourish.
