love the place. One thing i'm not big on is that they reheat the food in a microwave before they serve it to you. Hopefully that will change. Besides that, super friendly and accommodating staff. I've only tried their veggie meals, so flavourful and clean tasting.

Best coffee/Latte I've tasted in my 23 years of life. Great friendly customer service. Ask for the Roxy Sandwhich and you will be delighted.

I was passing by this place and decided to stop in for a coffee. After a warm welcome by the owner, Elsabet, I was made an incredible coconut latte I will never forget! I hope I am in the neighborhood again soon so I can have another!

This unassuming little café is serving up the best Ethiopian food in the city. I've tried basically everything on the menu since discovering it and everything is so fresh and simple and delicious. So far, I've not had anything re-heated in a microwave (except maybe one legume dish once?), but I think that the cooking is so good that it would still be great even if it were nuked before serving. This café proves that, once again, simple is best; you don't need a menu with 30 items on it; you don't need fancy decor; you just need a perfect cup of cardamum-spiced coffee and a warm plate of ful or spiced eggs or lentils and you will find greatness!

Tried this place today at the recommendation of a friend, and it is a Corktown secret gem! The prices are very reasonable, the service is friendly, coffee is delicious (I usually don't even like or drink coffee) and they will make make anything without dairy if you ask. Their coffees and teas are fair-trade and organic. I believe their injera is also gluten-free (not 100% certain, but usually it is. I'll ask next time I go.) Also, they have a cute patio in the back and free wifi. This place is totally grass-roots, DIY and everything is homemade. I think I have a new favourite hangout. :)

Wow, I am so happy I found this wonderful place. Best hot chocolate I have ever tasted ! I had it with almond milk.. I can't wait to go back and get another. Also, the friendliest customer service.

Best Ethiopian food, made from fresh ingredients bought from the markets. On top of that is the friendliest experience every time you go, she remembers who you are regardless of how long ago you were last there. The Chai latte is to die for, wonderfully made. Last time she scooped some flex in my chai and it made my latte heavenly. I hope more people would know about this cozy place.
