Our Guestbook
“ I forgot to write my review for this place. I have been here in the past as well and the food is always flavorful and delicious! The lady at the front is nice as well. When I come I usually have someone else with me and we get the vegan and meat combination. It's a good way to try everything. The place is clean and there is parking on the side of the building but not that many. There is a small bar as well. The food here is delicious, I like this place and one other place close by. I'm sad we don't have any Ethiopian restaurants where I live. ”
“ Amazing! We ordered the Addis combination for the table and split it. It comes with the meat combo and vegetarian combo. The meat is cooked perfectly in its spices. Amazing with the Injera bread! Service was good, friendly staff. Nice spot to check out in the area. ”
“ My wife and I love Ethiopian food and have been exploring the numerous restaurants in Oakland. The Yelp reviews and photos looked really great and we just had to try Addis. We both get our go to dish, the vegetarian combination and it was delicious. We especially enjoyed the red lentils which had a lot of flavor and a little spiciness. The injera was fresh and nice and thick to hold up the food. Addis had something unique and awesome...a sink to wash your hands outside of the restroom...Brilliant!!!! They also have a private parking which is a bonus. We will definitely be back :) ”
“ Came midday for a nice meal, and was happy with what I got.It was my first tome getting ethiopian food, so I didn't know what to expect. After eating here, I'd definitely reccommend ethiopean cuisine to one who havent tried. I reccommend getting any kind of combo platter, and a warm drink. ”
“ Love this place! The fassolia is unlike anything I've had before and it is an absolute must try. SO delicious. ”
“ My cousins and I were craving Ethiopian so we decided to try Addis for the first time! We ordered the veggie combo, kitfo dulet (raw), fassolia, and the Kornis. Kitfo dulet (4/5): we got the kitfo dulet raw. The kitfo dulet is minced beef with mixed with ghee, onions, and green peppers. Veggie combo (4/5): nothing outstanding, but still a solid choice if you want to try different vegetarian options. Kornis (3/5): this included the kitfo, sautéed injera, and lamb tibs. Everything tasted fine. It's a good choice for those who want variety. Fassolia (5/5): this is a dish of stewed green beans and carrots. This dish was surprisingly all of our favorites for the night. The vegetables were soft, warm, and perfectly spiced. I'd definitely recommend the Fassolia to anyone coming to Addis. Overall, the food was pretty good. The interior of the restaurant was clean, and the service was good. The staff are friendly and helpful and check in with you once in a while. ”
“ I love Ethiopian food, and there are so many wonderful Ethiopian restaurants in Oakland but I always come back here. I love their food and ambiance and warm service. I always recommend this place and it never disappoints. ”
“ Tonight was my first time ever having Ethiopian food and man, have I been missing out. I am visiting on a work trip from California and was taken here by a coworker whose friend is Ethiopian. This was one of the four restaurants the friend had recommended and we enjoyed our meal here. The restaurant is definitely a place for the locals as there was a group of friends sitting around the bar during our entire meal. It smells heavily incense inside, which you quickly get used to as you dine. While there were one or two servers, the service was not inattentive. We ordered both of the vegetarian and meat, combination dishes, as well as Ethiopian spiced tea to drink. The spiced tea reminded me of a simmer pot I might boil on my stove to make my house smell good; it tasted great too. Really lovely use of spices in all of the dishes. We did run out of injera at a point, but were able to order more to scoop the last we could eat of the platter. Sharing the two platters was a good size order for two women and there was some left over. What I love about this cuisine is that you feel full, but not disgusting. I can't wait to try more Ethiopian restaurants in the future. ”
