"Located at the bottom of an apartment complex on South Congress, Taste of Ethiopia II is the second location from the same owners (you can probably guess the name of the first). The dining room is large, but thanks to the woven baskets on every table and friendly service, a meal here feels cozy and inviting. There’s a buffet during lunch on weekdays—with lots of meat and vegetable options—but you can also order off the full menu anytime. Everything we’ve had has been cooked well, but most of the dishes have a more mellow spice profile than other Ethiopian spots in town. The added bonus is that there’s a full bar where you can order your usual Heineken, or from a small selection of Ethiopian beers and honey wine." - Nicolai McCrary
