"I recently had the pleasure of dining at Lucy Ethiopian Restaurant, and it was truly an exceptional experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm welcomed Overall, my visit to Lucy Ethiopian Restaurant left me thoroughly impressed. The combination of cleanliness, attentive service from the owners, and delectable food made for an unforgettable dining experience. I highly recommend Lucy Ethiopian Restaurant to anyone looking for a taste of authentic Ethiopian cuisine served with a touch of warmth and hospitality. Good Job!"

"There is a huge difference between upselling and taking advantage of your guests. When I was greeted and seated by who I presume to be the owner, I was asked if I’d ever had Ethiopian food. Yes, about 3 times but it’d been awhile. I went with one friend and told him she wouldn’t be eating, only me. He recommended that if I like meat and vegetables, to get the combination platter, while pointing to the menu with a photo of a large dish and a price of around $27. He told me if I got the combination I would have plenty to take home. I should have confirmed the price with him but figured it would be around $40 considering most single serving entrees are priced around $18, and I was the only one eating. I’ve attached a photo of the food that came out. It is egregious to recommend something this large for one person. That already soured my experience but the food was fine so I tried to enjoy it. When he visited the table and I said it was too much, he smiled and said that he told me I’d have leftovers. Well I left without about 3 pounds of them and a bad taste in my mouth that hardly makes me want to eat them. When the bill came, he had sold me two combination platters at the price of $39 for the meat and $25 for the veggie. He knew I was one person eating and proceeded to order $64 of food for one person, when a single portion entree is less than 1/3rd of that price. After leaving a 20% tip as this was no fault of the server, my bill came out to $94.94. Between me and my friend we spent about $10 on water and tea. As a hospitality worker in Vegas, I appreciate the thrill of an upsell but if it is a significant price jump I confirm that with guests because I care more about hospitality than my bottom line. I left feeling completely taken advantage of, and on top of that I am not in a financial position to spend that kind of money. Vegas is full of sleazy people and unfortunately my experience at Lucy reaffirmed this. I’d recommend knowing what you want when you get inside - which is no fun if you enjoy a hospitable dining experience - or simply getting your Ethiopian food anywhere else in Vegas."

"Had an amazing dinner at Lucy. I came for a conference and wanted to get away from the noise and craziness of Vegas hotels. I’m glad I found this place. Definitely recommend. Our host was Senaite, she was awesome!"

"Delicious & fresh Ethiopian dishes. Friendly staff. It is a large restaurant could host 100+ people. Nice patio area outside. Plenty of parkini had the lamb dish. Again delicious…."
