"A nearby restaurant offering Ethiopian cuisine, contributing to Inglewood's busy dining scene." - Mona Holmes
"When your kids eat with their hands, it’s a messy disaster. But if you and your love can pull it off, then this Ethiopian star in Inglewood makes for a fun night. Make your way to the back patio and order a mix of stews (the shiro, a spicy chickpea mix, is a favorite), eaten by hand using injera bread as a scoop, and a glass of honey wine for a romantic evening." - Robert Spuhler
"Inglewood’s Emma Habesha is among the best Ethiopian spots in the city. You can’t go wrong with anything, but our favorite is the special kitfo - minced raw beef - which is served with a super spicy butter, ayb (Ethiopian cottage cheese), and fantastic braised collard greens. The vegan platter is also very good - there are five different kinds of vegetables, including some excellent green beans and a lentil stew. It’s great for a fun lunch with your coworkers, or as a casual date night - but no matter when you’re there, be sure to end the meal with their fantastic coffee service." - Brett Keating
"Emma Habesha’s cozy Inglewood space makes it easy to share ample and flavorful options, where aromatics fill the air as staff drops off stewed lamb, sauteed beef tibs, or a vegan agelgil fitfit. They never forget the injera." - Mona Holmes
"Find your way to the back patio of this Ethiopian eatery (because every meal is better with lights hanging overhead) and be ready to share plates of doro wat, awaze tibbs, and ye beg alicha (chicken stew, cubed beef, and lamb stew, respectively). If your group has some herbivores, Emma Habesha makes a particularly inclusive pick for dinner, with great vegan and vegetarian combos, as well." - Vox Creative
