Vegetarian combo for two. We always think it won't be enough, but it always is. Great service and delicious food.

suzanne ????

I believe I order the veggie platter whenever I'm here. I'll try something new, but in addition with the veggie platter . Ethiopian coffee black is delicious. I might as well ????????

Adriano Chiaretta

One of the few Ethiopian Restaurants in SF. Vegetarian combo is a great choice, and they can swap the default veggies with others within the menu.

The DORO WOT and okra wot were so good! And the TEJ was AM-A-ZING! So glad I dropped in. I swear habeshas are the most hospitable people in the world felt right at home. Awesome music ,Super cozy spot .

WhiskyAvenger

Feel like a beer ? They often have an assortment of African beers on offer. One of my favorites is Hakim Stout . Goes well with the meet dishes while quelling the intense spices.

Roll up your sleeves and dig in injera-first to this Inner Sunset spot’s hefty combo platter. Bonus level: wash it all down with some seriously-sweet honey wine . Read more

Great vegetarian and meat options, honey wine , ambiance, super friendly owners . (i.e. One of them saw me struggling to carry my bike up the stairs after a long ride and carried it up for me!)

WhiskyAvenger

The Vegetarian options are very delicious. I am a carnivore but the veg options are fantastic and a great change of pace.

Stove Chops

I had great pleasure in enjoying the meat and veggie combo plates! My first time eating Ethiopian food , I would happily go back!

Yoël Ramos

DO NOT MISS the Kantisha Mushroom dish. Mana, the owner, is the nicest restauranteur I have ever met! This photo is the Kantisha + Alicha Ater, family style !

Todd Persen

The kantisha is fantastic. If you get the House Sampler, I recommend trying to swap something out for it.

Thaisa Fernandes

The food is delicious. They have some South Africa wines . And the price is affordable . The staff are very friendly .

Athonia Cappelli

The spicy okra dish is the best among the vegan items . Wine here is pricy : $7 for 4 oz ???? though. Request ???? hot paste as a condiment from the kitchen‼️

Hap Kom

Place is awesome. Great service, delicious good, good portions and you won't have to leave your first born as a form of payment

Rachel Rebecca

There dishes here are really good, and it is very traditional. The owner is quite friendly and the service is really good

Kian Lavi

Everything is so good. Everyone here is sweet. Get the Eritrean beers

Fred Stevens-Smith

Lovely service. Mediocre decor. Have had better and have had worse Ethiopian food around the world. Definitely the best in SF. Well worth a visit.

WhiskyAvenger

Can’t decide? I recommend one of the vegetarian or meat combination plates.

Chinarut Ruangchotvit

ask nicely & they are happy to do 1 substitution on the veggie combo :)

Megan Masters

Come with a group and sample a ton of options! The massive plate of food will go quick !

Kathryn M

Vegetarian sampler and meat sampler covers everything. Food was awesome and such a chill vibe.

Peter Levi

Meat combination was great. Hadn't eaten in an African restaurant before, using your fingers to eat feels fresh.

ClandestineDrinker

Easily the best Eritrean restaurant and one of the best African restaurants in SF!

Keri Casler

Love this place!!! The staff are very kind, food is delicious and we had our very first date here !!!

Onur Erbilgin

Veggie combo plus one of the house special meats, can't go wrong! Friendliest wait staff ever.

robert

My favorite dish is the one with the hard boiled egg . Like SWV, this place makes me weak!

Tim Haines

Incredible, authentic Ethiopian food . The gored beef and collard greens are particularly tasty.

WhiskyAvenger

In my opinion,this is the best Eritrean restaurant in the city .

WhiskyAvenger

If you don’t like super spicy , their milder heat level is also delicious.

Karen Hammond

Really good and interesting meal. Great veggie food and a nice atmosphere

Alex Priest

Honey wine ! Also, literally all the food.

Chris Jennings

Vegetarian Combo blew me away. Best Eritrean/Ethiopian food I've had in SF.

Michelle O'Riordan

Get some sambusas to start with and a giant vegetarian platter for the main ;-)

Sherry Li

Get the veggie combo and a meat or seafood entree to share, family-style, of course!

Lauren Curler

Meat combo 11 is a great way to try a few things. Beef , chicken , lamb , veggies - all good!

Carrie Higgins

GO! You will be happy and leave full!

Kyle Warren

Order a combo for all the things.

Dan Kim

Vegetarian combo with honey wine .

Doc Pop

Coming for the gluten-free Injera ? Be sure to call ahead of time to confirm. They often use wheat with their teff, but if you call in advance they can make a special batch for you.

Azra Crnogorcevic
