Habesha - Ottawa

Right now, I think this is the best Ethiopian option in the city It has a homey, casual feel to it and I keep coming back This is the restaurant I pick for first timers to Ethiopian food Its an easy go to pick for me generally

I preordered atkilt wot and shuro wat and injera on Skip the Dishes for 1:30 pm. The food showed up right on time, and was hot and had large portions. I'll admit we're no experts on Ethiopian food but but my friend and I thought everything was delicious.

We have ordered from Habesha multiple times in the past year. Generally, they provide quick service and delicious food. We typically order the Habesha platter (meat) and the Vegetarian platter. They are always flavourful and packed with lentils in different sauces. Last night we used the Order Ahead function on Skip the Dishes and put our order in at 4:00 requested delivery at 6:00. THe restaurant didn't open until 5 . Our order didn't show up until 7 and the food was cold. At 6:45 I called the restaurant to find out where the order was and they said it had just been picked up. The app kept saying the restaurant needed more time. This was the first time I had been disappointed by either the restaurant or the app, so I don't want my review to reflect it, which is why I've still given them 4 stars. I hope to order from Habesha again, and I think you should try them too.

Fantastic meal, with great staff. A unique and interesting experience, the Meade wine is a very nice complement to the meal.

Amazing Ethiopian/ Eritrean food at a lovely family restaurant! They willingly make small changes to the dishes if asked, and make sure you leave with a smile on your face every time. When we go my partner gets the zizil tibs, and I devour the veggie platter. Them being closed during the Covid lockdown was tough, and I was first to dine in when it re-opened!
