Daniel WeinbergAugust 6, 2019Really solid - I get the veg sampler, which is vegan. I've been to a few of the Ethiopian places in the neighborhood, and Ethiopian Diamond is near the top.
If you are new to eating Ethiopian food, I recommend the E2 for the meat eaters and the vegetarian sampling for those that don't. Both are pictured here.
Chad CurryAugust 11, 2014The veggie combo is a great way to explore dishes and it's not badly priced. Our kids love the njerra bread which is naturally gluten free.
Emily SDecember 7, 2014This place is amazing. Get the Tour or Taste of Ethiopian so you can sample lots of dishes with your table- Chicago Cab FareOctober 5, 2011Verified authentic by Ethiopian cab drivers. Go for one of the Taste of Ethiopia combos. Visit ChicagoCabFare.com for a full list of 50+ authentic ethnic restaurants in Chicago.
Sabina KajtezovicNovember 19, 2012Food is yum. Order lamb or chicken with boiled egg. Lentils to die for.. try both Ethiopean and one Kenyan beer.
Anne-Marie HodgeAugust 12, 2014The vegetarian sampler is excellent, and the "tour of Ethiopia" meal is a good value.
Jessica ReynoldsApril 29, 2012If this is your first time here, yes -- eat with your hands. Use the breading to pick up meats and veggies.
Time Out ChicagoSeptember 20, 2010There’s no shortage of brunch options in this town, but few offer doro watt, those addictive, ginger-kissed chicken legs, and yesimir watt (spicy, savory lentils). Read more
Wayne KeithSeptember 19, 2011Truly Amazing! When your down south in Atlanta try Desta Ethiopian Kitchen you will also love it!
Door tibbs without green pepper, sprinkled with lemon juice. It's my favesies.
Tyler KamigakiDecember 1, 2012One if the few businesses where its actually kind of OKAY to use the typeface Papyrus!
Mike LewisJanuary 10, 2010I am in love witht the "taste of ethiopia" veggie combo. It is 16$ well spent.
Le WangFebruary 19, 2010My favorite Ethiopian restaurant. Love the doro watt and all the spicy tibs. Spicy dish not for the weak!
Xavier MMarch 25, 2011Taste of Ethiopia was amazing, not sure worth $38 for 2 but great nonetheless.
Jeiran HasanMay 29, 2016Food was fantastic! Disappointed with the mango drink, it was just ok, but the honey wine was tasty.
order a Hakim Stout to stand up to the wonderfully spicy fare! :)
Francesca CarolinaNovember 3, 2012Food was delicious-service atrocious. We had a quick question about the menu & the guy (owner?) actually said "I'm too busy to explain this," and walked away. The waitress later threw napkins at us.
Chet FarleyJune 9, 2010The food is amazing, despite being written and described on the menu in Papyrus font.
Matty HerzbergJanuary 22, 2010The food is good here, without question, but have you tried the hand dryer in the men's room? WOW!
Nathan RuhlMay 3, 2013Awful service. Small portions. Food much better (and cheaper) at Ras Dashen. Skip it.
