Flavorful with plenty of delicious options

Ethio Beans has clearly labeled vegan options that can be tried as a combo, or as individual dishes. The coffee service is great, and the portions are generous. The veggie combo can feed two people. The food is delicious and not overly salty. The lentil sambussas are delicious, and our favorites were the misir wot and alicha wot, but everything is excellent.

Pros: Flavorful, Generous portions, Clearly labeled vegan dishes

Unique cuisine!

All dishes are served with a huge teff flour bread. The food is very tasty, but traditionally you are expected to eat with your hands. Silverware is available upon request.

Pros: The owner is very friendly., The food is surprisingly unique., Several vegan options.

Delicious and plentiful options

Great, clearly marked vegan section of the menu. Food was excellent! I got the veggie combo which was a massive amount of food for $15- easily 2 meals. Very authentic and delicious.

Small ethnic grocery/supplies store with food counter - get the vegetarian plate

This is basically a grocery/"stuff from home" small ethnic business with a coffee / food counter and small eating area. They also have a selection of jewelry and embroidered clothing, and you can pick up coffee beans (whole or ground, roasted on premises) in addition to Ethiopian groceries, such as teff flour. Staff was super nice.

It was great to find delicious Ethiopian food without having to drive into Chicago. Options are somewhat limited, however they have a vegetarian plate.

The lentil curry was delicious and I liked the cabbage (not usually a fan). The injer (powdered broad beans or chickpeas in a spicy tomato sauce - the only other veg item on the menu besides the veggie combo) is also worthy of note.

Pros: Shop while you wait for your food, Tasty!

Cons: limited options
