"Very tasty, filling, well spiced Ethiopian food. One of my favorite ethnic cuisines, Lucy serves delicious Ethiopian dishes. Even my non vegan family member enjoyed her dinner, though she did order a meat dish as part of her meal My choice is vege (menu lists as vegetarian; though the owners assure me it's actually vegan) combo of 6 items, gomen wot (chopped collards), atkilt alitcha (spiced cabbage, carrots, onions, potatoes), miser alitcha (green lentils), miser wot (spicy red lentils), kik alitcha (yellow split pea stew). Served with side salad, house made injera (bread) yellow rice. Lentils veggies well cooked seasoned, without being over done. Light, fluffy rice. Gluten free injera available on request. The soothing smells platter presentation of the food had us enjoying it immediately. Almost forgot to photograph the food! Spiced teas are available, but the sweetener offered was honey. Water suited me just fine. Lovely decor. Wonderful owners. Mostly Ethiopian servers; suggest patience with ordering."

"I have vegan family in Oakland and this is their favorite restaurant. After browsing their online menu and seeing a few new to me menu items, I was excited to come here with them. I ordered 3 appetizers: DENITCH FRIES Thin cut and deep fried potatoes, resembling potato chips in appearance, but not as crisp as a chip. A delightful snack on which to munch while awaiting your main course. Ketchup is available. Portion is large. YE MESSER SAMBUSA golden fried pastry puffs (similar to samosas) filled with lentils spices. Served with a spicy sauce. Delicious! Comes with triangular 4 pieces. BUTACHA Homemade Ethiopian hummus. My DD is part Ethiopian and neither of us had ever heard of this being apart of Ethiopian cuisine. Comes with 4 scoops. Tip: scoop up some of the hummus together with the Messer Wot for a super dose of deliciousness. For my entree, I ordered the Vegetarian Sampler, aka Ye Tsome Bayaynetu. It comes with Messer Wot (somewhat spicy red lentils), Kik Alicha (yellow split peas), Ata Kilt (cabbage potatoes), Gomen (greens), and salad. On my first visit, I ordered the veg sampler along with an extra order of Messer Wot. It all came out on one platter, which was nice, but it was a lot of food. On my second visit, I requested, and was allowed, to get double Messer Wot instead of the Kik Alicha (which I don't like) and it was the perfect amount of food. All of the veggies were excellent and they give plenty of injera. If you’re a fan of Ginger Beer, they serve a pretty good one here. There have a new vegan dessert, which is banana and cream based. I’m not a big banana fan so I skipped it, but was happy to see it being advertised. I only had a couple of dislikes. I thought service was a little lacking. It was hard to get our waitress's attention on both visits, and my hummus didn't come out until we were almost finished eating on the second visit. Also, gratuity is automatically included on tables of 4 or more. This peeves me. 4 is not a large party and it's probably why the service was sub par."

"The waitress was nice when we first came in but shortly after seating us she quickly forgot about us. It took a long time to get our drinks (water) and we waited an hour for the food. There was a gathering at the bar of the workers who clearly knew or were kin to the guest at the bar. The focus was talking and catching up with them. The young man who was not our waiter felt sorry and came to finally apologize to and check on us. My first Ethiopian restaurant experience was not a good one. The food was hot and tasted pretty good."

"What a cool experience ! We started off with some amazing appetizers. The cauliflower and injera rolls were amazing ! For main courses we got some of the Ethiopian specialties and a fettuccine alfredo. The Ethiopian main was not our favorite to be completely honest. It may have been because the chef left early that day but it just didn’t taste good at all in my opinion. The fettuccine alfredo was actually phenomenal, I would come back just for the Ethiopian influenced Italian dishes ! Lastly what is holding this review to 4 stars is the phenomenal dessert. I think this is one of my top 5 desserts in Dallas now. It was to die for ! Lastly, the staff and service are hands down the best you can ask for, they make you feel at home and always check up on you ! They even gave away complementary chocolate boxes to mothers on mother’s day. This was very nice of the staff, amazing folks ! I hope to come back to get the Italian dishes and the dessert and maybe give the Ethiopian food another try with the main chef there !"

"We wanted something different in a relaxed, unhurried environment. We wanted food suitable for vegetarian and carnasaur palates. Everyone was happy. Everyone got to try something new. Beyond that, the ambiance was an unexpected bonus. Chic, welcoming, and convivial; as mellow as a tropical resort. We asked our waiter to pick out some food for us and she did a great job. We pretty much covered the gamut and it was equally wonderful throughout. We'll be back. Warning: leave a few minutes for parking!"

"I had never eaten Ethiopian food before. It was an enjoyable experience. A friend and I came here to celebrate her graduation. Employees were so nice and the server was very patient. We ordered the beef and cheese sambussas. Delicious with the sauce they were served with. We shared the Demera Messob for 2: Doro Wot, Ye-beg Wot, Lega Tibs, Dinich Wot(very spicy , Tikle Gomen(omg! , Yatkilt Wat. Honey Wine Sangria and Indaba Sauvignon Blanc, South Africa were both delicious. I’m not into vodka but I’d surely order the sangria myself. We shared their take on Tiramisu which was fantastic! It has their homemade ice cream instead of the custard. I can’t recommend this place enough. It was delicious!!"

"I don't know if this still has the restaurant attached, but I have been to the restaurant twice (December 2012 and spring of 2013) and both times the food has been superb. My classmate who is Ethiopian recommended it as her favorite restaurant so the first time we went it was for my birthday. It was my husband's first time trying Ethiopian cuisine and we both loved it. The honey wine was also delicious. The second time I went was with several classmates and it was again the best food. Some of them had not had Ethiopian food before and everyone liked it. I would highly recommend this place above some of the more popular well-frequented locations. This is more of an authentic experience. And FYI, injera as a leftover is quite good with fried eggs, onions, and peppers the next morning!"

"I took my wife to Mazza29 for her birthday since we enjoyed our last visit to this fine Ethiopian restaurant in Gainesville. We were quickly seated at a quiet corner table. In a few moments, our waiter indicated that the chef/owner had a proposition for us. The chef then came to us, introduced himself, and indicated that he wanted to prepare us a special 5 course meal with paired wines in honor of my wife's birthday. We obliged with little hesitation. We were then treated to a fantastic selection of chef inspired, well prepared courses including stuffed meatballs, Lamb lollies, monkfish with spicy polenta, chicken supreme, and a chocolate truffle that was quite possibly the best dessert I've had in 10 years! All credit to Emmanuel. He seemed to enjoy the evening as much as we did by getting off the normal menu and preparing a few spur of the moment dishes. The ambiance was very good and just what we were looking for quiet, secluded, and comfortable. We took a star away from Service due to our waiter not paying us much attention in keeping our wine and water glasses filled. That aside, the meal rather the experience, was delightful and was an incredible value. We strongly recommend trying Maza29. We will definitely be back with family and friends."

"There?s a restaurant and a grocery. We always order the combos. The two person combo is really too much food for two people. There?s no dine in option unless you don?t mind smoke (incense? but the patio is nice. If it?s groceries you want, this is a great place to come for spices if you plan to cook Ethiopian for like 50 people."

"Delicious! Order both the veggie platter and meat platters to share! Worth it! Delicious beef tibs, collard greens, lentils, cabbage, and beets out of this world! Love the food at place. Tenderness of tibs has been variable. Sometimes it's super soft, but honestly, a few times it's a bit tough. Everyone has their good and bad days, so I highly recommend this place. Affordable for NYC. Staff is nice and helpful."

"I wish I could give them 10 stars. Its the best Ethiopian food we’ve had. My husband and I always get the meat/veggie sampler for 2 and it is so delicious and filling. Everything tastes so wonderful, the blend of spices, the tenderness of the meats, the freshness of the vegetables. Every bite is a big warm hug, and feeds the soul. You’ll always leave satisfied. And the owners are so kind and welcoming. You won’t regret, it’s a must."

"I think this is one of the best restaurants in crystal city. eating is delicious and the waiters are friendly. meals here may be expensive if they order several dishes, but if they do not try to order too much, it is not too bad (at least until dmw prices go.) our dishes are derek tibsi and spicy lentils. the seasoning levels vary a little, based on cooking, but eating is consistently delicious. highly recommended!"

"We went to the Red Sea three times when we dumped him for college. It is always delicious and fresh. The Veg plate feeds 4 people with some remains, although we always get extra Injira. The servers are always friendly and service is fast. It is cozy inside and attracts a very diverse crown. It is in no way unusual and connected to a nightclub next door."
