Kaffa Crossing

We came for lunch and there was no line or wait when we arrived. We ordered the Yebeg Tibs, spicy regular Tibs, and Shiro Wot. It came on a bed of injera (Ethiopian flatbread) with extra on the side. It also came with yellow split peas, spiced split lentils, collard greens, and carrot with salad. Everything was delicious but I especially liked both of the Tibs as well as the Shiro Wot. It wasn't very busy and the staff checked in often enough.

I ordered online for pickup and got what is just called “Tibs” on the menu (not any of the special ones with another descriptor; note it is beef). I went with the spicy version and it was INCREDIBLE. It was spicy but not overly spicy, very juicy, and everything had so much flavor! It came with cabbage and lentils. The meat was amazing, but the lentils might be my favorite part. Everything came wrapped in injera and with extra on top in the container. The woman at the counter was very nice when I went to pick it up. I will definitely be ordering from here again Some useful notes: The food is delicious. Reasonably priced. There is a small service fee ($1) when ordering online. If paying by card instead of cash, they only take Visa or Mastercard, so plan accordingly.

My first time trying Ethiopian food and I’m glad I tried here! The lady behind the counter was super nice and recommended the best smoothie (fantasy island) I have had in a long while. Everything we got came quick, fresh, and delicious. In addition, this place is very vegan/vegetarian friendly, and also have great meat options. If you had a group of friends with all different tastes and preferences, this is a great place for you all.

This is a cozy little restaurant on Chestnut Street in University City. The hostess was exceptionally kind and accommodating to us. The food deserves 4.5 stars. The atmosphere and service gets 5 stars from me. We had Doro Wot, Veggie Combo for entrees. We also got a small smoothie and an Ethiopian beer for drinks. First off, the drinks were great. I highly recommend the Ethiopian beer (It’s named ‘Habesha’). It’s not too overpowering, has a pleasant taste and goes exceptionally well with the food. The food itself was great. Both dishes came with ample helpings of injerra (Ethiopian bread). I found some pieces of chicken in the Doro Wot to be a little hard to bite, but it was fine. The other servings of vegetables on the platter went great with the Doro Wot.
