What our guests are saying

First time trying Ethiopian food and loved it! The sambussas were freshly fried and crispy on the outside. We ordered chicken, but the chef also gave us the veggie platter on the house. Loved all the sides on the platter and their distinct spice. Definitely worth a try if you've never had Ethiopian food before.

Walia is our go-to place for the most amazing Ethiopian food. We usually order the veggie sampler with chicken tibs...it's delicious and just the right amount for the two of us.

I've been here several times and have never been disappointed by the quality of food and customer service. Great options for both vegetarians and meat eaters. Even offer gluten-free options. Parking can be tough sometimes, but the struggle is well worth it. Joseph has been our waiter almost every time I come in and his energy level and kindness always keep the vibe positive. Highly recommend!
