  • ThePurplePassport.comEtete has all the dishes you’d expect from a traditional Ethiopian restaurant cooking up mom’s family recipes: hearty stews, spicy lentils, and spongy sourdough injera bread to soak it all up

  • Alex O.Best Kitfa I have ever had. Get it raw.

    33333 by Alex O.


  • Daniel A.Get the sambusas, goden tibs, veggie combo and fried fish. They are delicious.

    55555 by Daniel A.


  • Neal J.Etete's Special Kitfo is the best kitfo I have ever had (and I love kitfo). Wow.

    55555 by Neal J.


  • Mike R.Lega Tibs......cubed pieces of marinated lamb sautéed in onion, jalapeno, spiced butter = yumm-o.

    55555 by Mike R.


  • Les T.Do yourself a favor and don't eat here. Walk across the street and go to Habesha Market instead. The veggie combo was a joke. The put a tablespoon or two of the veggie dishes and they were tasteless.

  • Anthony M.Yewaz tibs are good and have good spice. One of those and veggie platter is a solid dinner for two people. Especially if you get the sambusa thingies.

    55555 by Anthony M.


  • azewdeWorst Ethiopian food I have had in a long time. Awefuly done Kitfo not cooked to order, tasteless Tibs with hard meat to chew and friend's veggie combo also not very good. Overcrowded, poor cust srvc.

  • Graham H.Get the sambusas. Yum!

  • Nick B.The Yemisir Kik Wat (spicy red lentils) are excellent here.

    55555 by Nick B.


  • Matt R.Veggie combo with fish. Do it.

    55555 by Matt R.


  • Nikki M.Washintonian listed it on the 2011 cheap eats. But it is a little pricier than I was expecting. But very good and very filling.

    55555 by Nikki M.


  • Washingtonian MagazineWe recommend: Sambusas; yebeg wat (lamb); doro wat (chicken and hard-boiled egg); kitfo (beef tartare); kik alicha (split peas); gomen (collards); azifa (green lentils).

  • Gina C.Try the potato dishes they are soooo delicious!

    55555 by Gina C.


  • Emily W.really tasty injera!

    55555 by Emily W.


  • Jared B.Bring cash. They can't split checks apparently. I just sat for 10 minutes with a pen and paper doing the math to split the check between 5 cards.

  • RobinExcellent! The kitfo is delicious, and the veggie combo also highly recommended.

  • Travel ChannelThe hottest ticket on this city's dining scene is Ethiopian food. Restaurant Etete is jam-packed with locals and Ethiopians, which always says to me it's the real deal. – Samantha Brown

  • GourmetLiveChef Tiwaltengus Shenegelgn's doro wat, a berbere-spiced stew that includes a chicken and a hard-boiled egg, takes five or six hours to cook and begins much the same way a French onion soup does.

  • Danielle R.Ask for a Vanilla Absolute Vodka and Ginger Ale. It taste like an adult cream soda!

    55555 by Danielle R.


  • LiJia G.Good for groups

    55555 by LiJia G.


  • Joanna C.Best Ethiopian Food

    55555 by Joanna C.


  • Susan W.While many of the meats are good, the veggies are excellent. Be sure not to miss the first veggie combo on the list.

    55555 by Susan W.


  • Michael H.Pick a meat dish, order a veggie combo dish and share! my favorite Ethiopian restaurant in DC.

    55555 by Michael H.


  • Anthony N.Quite possibly the best ethiopian food in the world.
