In 20-30 years, African restaurants may fill out the hip downtown streets. For now, you can enjoy Awash's Ethiopian standards. I chose one of the meat combinations, which feeds 2 and is served on the large, spongy pancake (no fork/knife allowed). All meat and vegetables were tasty, though not necessarily memorable (after all, this is peasant food--cheap, appetizing, and satisfying).

Pros: Tasty, cheap, exoti

we walked in awash resturant with my family and freins for the labour,1st we were standing at the door to bre seated for almost 20 minutes and i decided to walk towards the bar I asked the girl ,if someone can seat us she was very rude did not have the cortesy to even look at me ,she was filling glass and stated ''well you are not the only people waiting look at this customers seated on the bar waiteing foor open seat''in a very rude tone while ther was towo separete tables open ,my father inlaw staed lets just put these table together and we did he had ankle surgery could not stand long ,okay we sat ourselves and waiting to get some water or a waiter there were two girls for the resturant ,whenever they pass by no eye contact or sorry for the delay or no word ,total time to get water 220 minutes to give order another 10 minutes and by the time we get our food30 minutes total waiting time from the door to be served over an hour .food was okay not bad but did not get enough injera so we have to wait 10 minutes ,by then everybody was frustrated nit a good experience such a negative energy in the whole restaurant .i understand when you are busy it is hard but you can actually talk to the customer with respect not with the attitude of if you want to eat here you have to endure all the abuse from us so I am actually boycotting the restaurant in Colombia university campus ,please do not go there unless you want to be treated with so mush rudeness and pay the big paycheck,by the way when we asked our bill it took them less than 2 minutes to bring to us so sad ..
