Delicious food, tasteful and at a great price. Thank you, it was excellent! And delivered with joy and smiles.

Smallish place with a wonderful atmosphere. Stands out from the street with it's vibrant colors and delicious aromas. Only having one Ethiopian experience in the past and was craving the food. An absolute pleasure to eat here!<br><br>Happened to park right in front of the restaurant by chance. Standing in the front of the place reading the menu, I could smell something delicious, and decided on the spot we would eat lunch there. After a nice walk around town, we came back to eat. Not knowing what to get, we asked for some suggestions and ordered a few things. Everything was so delicious!! The spicy dishes were great, the not-spicy dishes were so good as well! Everything was made in house, and served by such a friendly lady. I'm not sure if she was the owner, but she was enthusiastic about all their dishes and happy to answer our questions.<br><br>I will be back to try more!!

I love Ethiopian food so I had to find somewhere to get it when I was in NYC. I went during a quiet lunch hour and really enjoyed myself. The atmosphere and service were great. The food was good, although not as good as other spots I’ve been to in the US. This surprised me a bit, as I thought NYC would give the best. Overall a great experience and I recommend this spot.

Titi was so welcoming and nice to me and my fiancé. She informed us on what we were eating and even wanted to know our comfort level of spice to make sure the food was cooked accordingly. The food was a hit !! I had the Awaze tibs and my fiancé had the doro tibs and they were fuego 🔥🔥 on point !! We loved it !! We will be back !!

By far the best restaurant in the neighborhood. The soft, fluffy injera is made daily, the food is packed with flavor (especially the tomato salad and sambusas with red pepper sauce), and the waitstaff is lovely and warm. Truly a fantastic experience all around.

I had a good experience here. I'm not an Ethiopian food connoisseur so I can't speak to how authentic it is but I enjoyed the veggie combo and as a vegan I was glad to have options. My friend got the beef and it was a bit spicier than expected but not bad. I would come back here to try more things!

Great place! First time here and first time trying Ethiopian food. Delicious. Plenty of flavor. The ladies here were so lovely, kind and welcoming! Wrapping up my meal with an Ethiopian coffee. Stop by and have lunch here it’s great!

This small yet cozy spot is a great find! Delicious and authentic food only outdone by the amazingly friendly and attentive staff. Great for meat lovers and vegetarians alike! The attention to detail is evident in everything they do from the food, to the service, to the decor, and even the bathroom :) You can tell how much thought and care they put into this place, which somehow makes the experience and food even better. Even if you don't live in the area (I don't!), it's worth the trip to Washington Heights!

My wife, Marty, has been here before and did me the great favor of taking me here today, in my last hours before I turn over another year, birthday eve.<br><br>OH, MY! What a gem in a still growing neighborhood. Sure there’s a couple local diners, yer usual pizza joints, coffee places, Ethiopian is sooo much fun and the food is delicious, the decor is beautiful and comfortable, the service is great and welcoming.<br><br>Co’mon! Skip pizza or take out Chinese! Make tonight ETHIOPIAN! You’ll thank me later! Tell ‘em Marty and Fitz sent ya!

Food was so tasty, and the awaze (lamb) tibbs was our favorite. The coffee was great and the baklava was delicious. The best part was the friendly staff and the welcoming atmosphere. We genuinely felt at home.

The most delicious and authentic Ethiopian food you can find outside of Addis!! The owners are kind, welcoming and so hospitable. 10/10 food and service! Can’t wait to go back.

First time trying Ethiopian food and the food here is absolutely delicious! Highly impressed by both the exquisite cuisine and the impeccable service.

The ambience is very casual but the service is superb; better than most fancy restaurants. The server was very attentive and seemed to read our mind before we asked.<br>The food was all top notch as well. Ordered the Ethiopian spiced tea, the beef combo, and baklava. The tea was bold and spicy, similar to a great chai tea.<br>The beef combo injera was absolutely delightful, with bold spice, tender meats, and some lentils too!<br>11/10 definitely recommend

What a spectacular find! This lovely Ethiopian restaurant has a welcoming ambiance and delicious food cooked by sisters with complementary talents — one specializes in the vegetarian dishes and one in the meat dishes. Both are perfectly spiced and served with the care that such beautifully crafted food deserves.

The staff at this Ethiopian restaurant create a warm and welcoming experience, adding to the great quality food being served. 🇪🇹<br>In my visit to NYC I was looking forward to dining at an Ethiopian restaurant. I visited Addey Ababa as a first timer and the restaurant definitely deserves a second visit. I have to give the staff a 10/10 for their service and kindness. In terms of the food, the restaurant can cater to both vegans and meat eaters. I ordered the Shiro Wot, a very tasty, non-spicy chickpea stew. I also had a coffee, which was delicious and needed absolutely no creamer added. High quality restaurant. I recommend you give Addey Ababa an have the experience for yourself.
