Reviews For Nazrawi Ethiopian Restaurant

By a far landslide, this is the best Ethiopian food in the area. Whether you’re vegan, gluten free, carnivore, etc, all the options are top tier. My favorites include the Asa goulash (fried fish in stew), beef tibs and special kitfo. I also recommend the veggie platter and veggie sambusas. If you’re into unique alcohol, try out their Ethiopian beers. The staff are kind, knowledgeable and so accommodating. Perfect place for dates, family dinners, birthdays, or just a chill vibe.

I found this restaurant after doing a Google search because I wanted authentic Ethiopian cuisine. The 5 star reviews were the truth! From the time I walked in for late lunch, the host and I believe manager, welcomed me to their restaurant. I had an appetizer and a main dish (vegetarian), all of which was absolutely delicious. This was more than enough for one sitting so I have dinner or lunch tomorrow and priced nice. Shout out to the entire ladies in the kitchen, at the bar and serving...

Having enjoyed the local Ethiopian dining scene since I was a kid visiting old AdMo places, I was amazed to discover Nazrawi. This place is amazing. My clear new favorite that I think stands out above all the other great places in SS. The spicing all around and the quality of their meat is stellar. Very welcoming and not overly loud or clubby.

Amazing Ethiopian restaurant in the DMV. Beautiful restaurant and fun atmosphere. The food is top notch. We came on a busy night and service was a bit slow near the end of our visit but it was worth it overall. Staff was kind in explaining any dishes I didn't know and very friendly. The menu offered so much compared to the simple dishes we got this time!

Delicious food, good music playing in the background and prices are comparable. The whole restaurant only had one waitress plus the bartender. She was very friendly but had to wait a while for our drinks and refills.

The vibes reminded me of an evening in Addis Ababa. Would come back just for the herbal tea (spicy of course) but the injeera and various meats were all delicious!

Nazrawi was a delightful experience. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot for both casual and special occasions. The staff was attentive and friendly, ensuring our dining experience was smooth and enjoyable. The highlight, of course, was the food. The Kitfo and fish Gulash was a standout, perfectly cooked and bursting with flavors. The portion sizes were generous and the presentation was visually appealing. Ending it with authentic Ethiopian coffee made in the middle of the restaurant. Overall, Nazrawi offers a fantastic dining experience with its combination of delicious food, excellent service, and cozy atmosphere. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable meal.
