Abyssinia Restaurant

"I absolutely love Ethiopian food and was desperately trying to find a good place when I moved back to California. Abyssinia Restaurant is the place!! It's so delicious!! If you never had Ethiopian, I definitely recommend this place and try it out. I would compare the eating style to Indian food in terms of using naan as a utensil to scoop up food to eat. As a vegetarian I get the Veggie Combo which is different dishes placed on injera (a spongy fermented flatbread) which you tear and use to scoop the food. So sooooo gooood. I definitely plan to go again and introduce more friends and family to Ethiopian cuisine."

"We are very fond of Ethopian food and tried this place last weekend. We loved the people and the ambiance. The welcome with roasting coffee beans was a unique experience. Loved the warmth. As far as the food goes, the vegetarian portion of the meal was great, but alas, the lamb and chicken weren't. The sauces were so good, but the lamb was tough, and the chicken had the flavor of boiled meat. The traditional Injera was perfect. Our server was very helpful and courteous and suggested great beers from Ethopian. The coffee at the end of the meal with the popcorn was very aromatic. All and all, a great experience."

"Oh my gosh, wow!! Just got home from an incredible dinner. The owner is such a sweet hospitable man. The food is incredible!! You can taste the care and quality in every bite. I had the Ethiopian honey wine which is served cold and bubbly and packs quite the punch. It’s not sweet like I was expecting, which I really enjoyed and preferred. We shared a veggie combo along with the number 1 from the lamb menu. Everything was so delicious and high quality. After speaking to the owner, he told us he is a chemist, which makes total sense! His food and flavors are articulated down to the molecules. He serves filtered water NOT tap water which is so rare at a little ma and pop place such as this. We felt very cared for and takes care of. The Ethiopian coffee is so good! They roast and grind the beans in house. Everything is amazingly curated and so much food and an overall very pleasant experience. I would eat here every week and am looking forward to our next visit. Can’t recommend this place enough!"

"A rare find in the area for an Ethiopian cuisine. The place is decorated nicely and the decor is nicely done in the East African style. The menu was adequate and the vegetarian options fantastic. I had the Vegetarian Platter . The injera was soft and nice. The variety and arrangements were very good and all the dishes well made. I will be going again . This place saved my long drive to Fairfax for Ethiopian fare. Five Stars for this visit."

"Excellent halal Ethiopian food in Anaheim. Super nice family and seriously delicious eats! The injera bread has that nice sour taste to it, as it should. Generous portions. We got the special combo for 4)5 people and it was more than enough for our family of 5. Family friendly, kids loved the food and the experience of eating from the same.plate and with our hands. Also order the Ethiopian water with bubbles, natural spring, it's so good . Will definitely be back."
