    We always enjoy Das! The wait staff are attentive and your water glass is always full. We got the cheese appetizer, beef awaze fit fit, fish asa, and vegetarian sampler. Everything was excellent. The staff checked on us multiple times. Our daughter got a takeout of the soaked injara and left it on the table. The restaurant called me twice and left a voicemail saying they had it for her but I got the message too late. They are one of the best restaurants I’ve ever eaten in. Will always go back

    Worst Ethiopian Food & Service we ever had. 1. Staff was somewhat rude. They were behaving as if there was a big wait outside, though it was 80% empty. 2. We went there as it was a Michelin Star, but was the worst tasting Ethiopian food ever. 3. They were mopping the floor, while we were sitting (can't they do that before letting people in). 4. We wanted to try a few dishes and order more depending on what we liked, but were forced to order everything upfront. 5. Even after telling them to bring orders separately, they combined all of them in one plate 6. They even got the wrong order, and after notifying them, they removed part of it from the common plate. Really not sure how they got the Michelin Start, which they are using to get business, but we had a very bad experience, and will be very careful in trying any another Michelin Star...
