Ethiopian cuisine is traditionally served on a large, thin, sourdough pancake called injera. Injera is a yeast-risen flatbread with a unique, slightly spongy texture, made from teff.
The traditional way of eating is with fingers, from a large plate with the injera placed on the plate and the variety of dishes decoratively arranged around it. Sharing food from a common plate signifies a bond of loyalty and friendship.
“Habeshas has become one of my go to restaurants. The food is delicious and always taste fresh. It has always been clean, the food ready quickly, and the waitstaff helpful. And for an afternoon break be sure to try the coffee service!”
“Absolutely wonderful selection of veggies. Whenever I bring people to Habesha, I usually start with the Veggie combo as you get a lot of food for the price and I'm a huge fan of the lentils.”
“This stuff is absolutely amazing. Been back 7 times in the past four weeks lol”
“Very delicious dish with a melt in the mouth feel..I tried Ethiopian cuisine for the first time and really loved it! Cool ambience with reasonable pricing and excellent service. Looking forward to try the other dishes too”
“My wife and I have a long history fo visiting all the Ethiopian restaurants in whatever city we live in. We've tried Ethiopian food from coast to coast! We've lived in the Austin area for almost a year and just recently found Habesha! Any good cuisine starts with a great foundation and Habesha's gluten free injera is perfection, both spongy and tangy in all the right ways. We love vegetables and the chef at Habesha knows how to season until the flavors are balanced. Oftentimes chefs will put too much seasoning and it is rough on the pallet or not season enough and the food is watery (which is way worse!). This is not a problem at Habesha, where the chef know how to cook this delicious African cuisine. We also enjoy Habesha because most of the veggie dishes that come with combo can also be given to our one year old son, as it is healthy food. Any time we pick up Habesha, the whole family is happy! Thank you, Jamila”
“This was so good. Me and my one year old daughter could not stop eating. Even when I was going into a food coma”
