About Ethiopian FoodEthiopia is like an island in the middle of Africa, a mountainous region with different climate and culture than all the surrounding countries. Over the centuries, traders brought back spices and ideas from other cultures, which we made our own. Following are descriptions of a few items that are unique to Ethiopian cuisine.Injera - This soft crepe is made from teff, a grain native to Ethiopia that grows nowhere else in Africa. We traditionally eat with our fingers, using a piece of injera to hold our food, and then eat the injera.Berbere - Though chili peppers are native to the New World, there are records of them being used in African and Indian cooking as long ago as the 1700's. One of the most typical uses in Ethiopia is to make berbere, a spice mix that also includes ginger, cinnamon, cardamom, allspice, coriander and other seasonings. Berbere is used as a base for many Ethiopian stews and sauces.Niter Kebbeh - Every cook has their own recipe for the spiced clarified butter known as Niter Kebbeh, which is used for frying and for flavoring grain dishes. The butter is heated with onion, garlic, ginger, basil, fenugreek and other spices, then is cooled after it has absorbed the herb flavors.

Nice menu selection especially lots of seafood. Live music. Service was good. It’s a little loud. No view through the window at night which was a bummer.

Food and service were great. I was a little stunned to pay $8 for a bowl of romaine lettuce and tomatoes. That was my only complaint.

Love the food. Injera is the best bread in the world. The green beans in tomato sauce were really tasty.

Pleasant, peaceful, well-priced and tasty option with some street parking in the area. One of the 2 or 3 restaurants I patronize most often in LA. :-)

the rice served with the fish tacos should have something on it.....butter or some flavoring in the form of a sauce.....it could be a light sauce. the Buffalo chicken was chicken with hot sauce (granddaughter wasn't happy with it) everything else was fine.

Love this place. We brought some friends to celebrate ones birthday. We first brought them to City Grille about a year ago and now it is their favorite. Just the best food and service one could ask for.

The food and service were great. Sadly the loud music and hooka smoke were a huge turnoff.
