If you're planning on coming to Meskerem, leave yourself some time, because you won't want to leave. Between the great sponge bread and Ethiopian dishes, the steaming hot towels brought out for you to clean your hands and the soothing music, Meskerem is an experience. The decor is authentic and colorful. The food is wonderful. Service is very quick and very good. Prices are a bit on the high side, but it's worth it. If you're from Washington, you know the deal about parking in this neighborhood...nonexistent and/or a pain. There is a newer pay lot and Metro does have extension buses that run from the Woodley Park metro stop.
