While this may not be the very best African food in Portland, this is the best African restaurant. The atmosphere is wonderful with comfortable chairs and lighting that's not too bright or dim. \r

the menu is varied and the stick-in-the-mud in your group who doesn't want traditional Ethiopian will be sated by their steak sandwich or a vegetarian Mediterranean dish. This is a full service restaurant, and while I have not had breakfast there yet, the coffee is fantastic. The focus is on fresh ingredients with organic whenever feasible. My only complaint with food is that is not very spicy at all.\r

Also, the owners/staff are very classy and know how to make you feel welcomed.
Pros: Nice variety of dishes, pleasant ambience
Cons: Out of lamb
