Sankofa TafariJuly 31, 2017Totally loved the atmosphere and the coffee was awesome. It will be my regular dinner place on Sundays.
Barbara Ann RogersMarch 18, 2017Amazing food, warm service. The vegan combo is the way to go, but next time I may just get the mushroom tibs, which sounds divine too.
That GirlJanuary 17, 2019Vegan plate for two is delicious and filling, even for your meat eating friends. Lamb is also incredible. Great date spot.
JohannaMay 10, 2015The missir wett is so good - get the vegetarian combination with that and 3 others (also great: the buticha and key sir).
Arguably the best Ethiopian restaurant in New York City
Murtada ElfadlAugust 6, 2011Fantastic Ethiopian food, among best in NYC. Go on a weeknight when it's quiet and there is no wait.
eric mortensenJune 3, 2012Very tasty. The mead compliments nearly everything. And nearly everything is delicious.
martha dentonDecember 19, 2013If you order a day in advance, you can get a gluten free meal. We are told it's even tastier than the already very tastey typical options.
Edomia zaide BereheJuly 7, 2017Veggie combo was great and the service excellent. Warm and friendly staff!
I had the special this evening " Gomen Kitfo". An amazing substitute to meat "Kitfo" to those who are vegetarians. So yummy!
Thaniya KeereepartMarch 2, 2014Fantastic food. Slow service. Worth the wait if you are down to linger around but definitely not a pre-show dinner spot.
The New York TimesMay 6, 2010Bati’s injera is the real thing, dusky in color and springy to the touch. Whole hard-boiled eggs pop up like Cracker Jack prizes in the doro wett, a chicken stew. Read more
the veggie combo is great and for u extra spicy lovers, ask for awaze sauce on the side. ;0)
Jim RossMarch 25, 2011Doro Wat was pretty good, but the Bati Tibs were brilliant! Awesome food. Very helpful service too (recommendations etc).
Alice QNovember 20, 2019Smallest portions I’ve ever seen. you only get 1 injera at a time and after 2, they charge you. That being said, the food was better than average and they have good service and ambiance.
It’s not BYOB anymore and they’ll only accept two credit cards max!- The vegetable combo is addictive. I somehow end up at Bati every week.
Pratheeksha KSDecember 27, 2018This place has reasonable food but the service is subpar. The entire restaurant was pretty much empty, but they insisted 3 of us sit around a 2 person table which is worse when it's Ethiopian
Journo GirlDecember 31, 2012Food is good, but spicy. Nothing for little kids. $15 and up per entree, but most are shareable.

"Coolest opera house I've been to. In general shows at BAM are half the price and twice as good as most things in manhattan. Get more BAM for your buck"
