Ordered the works for 4 adults (1 male, 3 females) and I would say it’s more for 5-6 adults! It was very delicious and filling, we had leftovers to take home. Service was quick and staff was very nice. Highly recommend checking this place out for lunch or dinner.

Absolutely the best Ethiopian in town! I love that they are seemingly always open. Very reasonably priced. Charming ambience. Really beautiful building. They have great juices and if you prefer beer or wine with your meal you can byo.

This was my first time having Ethiopian and it was amazing! My husband and I shared a combo for 2 and LOVED it! The food was delicious and they even brought out some rice and lentils for our toddler (free of charge). We ended our night with Ethio Lattes and I cannot recommend those enough! The perfect ending to our night. The servers were so nice and friendly and the food was wonderful. I highly recommend Cafe Desta!

Amazing food, and service. My wife and I have been looking for some good Ethiopian food, so we came here. We were not disappointed. Every Ethiopian dish we knew, and more were available, and tasted great. Even if you are not looking for Ethiopian food, everything is great. We got the works, so we tried everything, and it was amazing. The service was also superb. I would recommend getting the Works, so you can try all their amazing foods, and end the night with an Ethio Latte. You will not be disappointed!!!

Nice little spot to grab some of the best Ethiopian food in town. The lunch specials are perfect! You can share 'The Works' with family. Something for everyone on that platter. :)

Vegan food not normally my thing, but this place had flavorful offerings – the combo platter had everything vegan. It was delicious and plentiful! Great, friendly service.

Some of the most amazing food I've ever had. The depth and complexity of the flavors are incredible. The restaurant is small, cozy and very vibrant at night. Service is beyond reproach! Anytime I am in town I will make this my first stop.
