Kibrom's Ethiopean & Eritrean Food

kibrom’s was a nice first experience with ethiopean/eritrean food for us. we arrived 6:30pm on a friday and were seated right away. service was prompt and polite though not particularly warm or welcoming. got the 6 item large portion beyaynetu plus samosa starters to share for our family of 4 (incl 2 little ones) and it was the perfect amount. to be honest, we had really high expectations due to all the amazing google reviews and even though we thought the food was good, the flavor profiles of what we tried were not as complex/intense as what we were expecting. my favorite was the red tibs & beef and even then, it was much less spicy than i expected/hoped for, though the beef was nice and tender. next best was gomen. the injera was soft, pillowy and generously portioned. also ordered avocado and sprice (avo, mango, banana) juices. note that these have more of a thick smoothie consistency - not my preference but the kids loved them.

I’ve been coming to this place for years and it never disappoints. If I have someone who wants to try something different, I take them here. If you order something you don’t like the first time around, try again. You’re bound to discover something tastier!

It was my first time having Ethiopean food... food was full of flavor and the texture of the bread was surprising yet tasty. Our host told us how to eat our meal in the authentic way, as done in Ethiopia, but he did have forks for us just in case we couldn't cope with the traditional custom. Good food, good service and the price was just fine too!

Very unique and delicious food. Highly recommend if you're looking for something different to try!

This place is by far one of my favorite spots to eat at when I’m visiting Boise. The people here are just so nice and so helpful not to mention the food is absolutely amazing! There hasn’t been one single thing on the menu that I haven’t liked. It’s always fresh! The atmosphere in kibroms is so relaxing and just a great place all around to take your family and friends to. I 💯 love the food at kibroms if you haven’t had ethiopian food please do you will not be dissatisfied not dissapointed.

This was a such a special little gem of a restaurant I know my family and I, (7 total) Superbly enjoyed! The staff was friendly and welcoming, smiley, and the food was delightful! 5 stars was such an easy decision and I hope that their brand continues to succeed, and sees this!! Thank you. 🤩😍

I'm in love. Had this delivered. First time trying Ethiopian food. The Veggie Samosa was so good, packed full, and very flavorful. The beef one was also stuffed with filings, but I prefer the flavor of the veggie and the sauce that came with them was unique and perfect. I got a side of rice, delicately spiced, ideal to go with the mains. I got the veggie and meat 6 items. The Tikel Gomen was my least favorite, but still a good dish. Selsi was very good, not as spicy as I thought. Foselia was super good, great textures. Dero Wat, I loved it was on the bone, and tender. Red Tibs Lamb had larger chunks, good flavor. The Zilzil Wot was my favorite! I got the gluten-free Injera, I enjoyed the texture and tang. The salad, while simple, was so well done, fresh and bright, and held up through the 30 min drive. Cons? my samosas were over cooked. It got sloshed around during the delivery, but that's not the restaurants fault.

I try Ethiopian food whenever I can, which is maybe twice a year. First time here and it was the BEST I have ever had. Our server was great, and the food was out of the park. Highly recommend. (Note*the avocado juice with milk was spot on)
