I really like Massawa, it was walking distance from home and when anyone said: "I want something tasty and different tonight" well it was an easy choice. Take some friends who like to talk and eat with their hands

Pleasant but nothing more. The preparations are relatively simple and the unhot dishes taste like Italian food. I would prefer a fork, but none was offered.

It's not the ambiance that inspires my cravings for this place but the delicious combination of spices for my palate and my nose. It's a truly sensuous experience. The family style presentation of the food is a joy to the eye - one could almost call it a food tapestry. And as I've mentioned, The aromas and tastes are delightful. Of course, the sense of touch isn't excluded. Eating the fermented spongy bread presented under the food which soaks up the sauces from the dishes is also provided on the side to scoop up the food in place of tableware (which is also available). Finger-lickin' good. The honey wine is odd - not in a bad way, and is definitely worth checking out. It's a welcome oasis.

This is a great restaurant to go to with a group of people because they can partition off a section of the restaurant with lattice which makes your gathering more intimate. We had a group of 7 adults, and we ordered 4 entrees and drinks, and we each only paid $10 for dinner! We were really full too! The Mamba beer from Africa is definitely worth trying. The zuchinni dish was a spicy but delicious entree. I'll be going back there!

My boyfriend loves this place, but the food is a bit spicy for me. If you like spicy food, go here! But overall, I'd say the food is fun and definitely different, as well as being quite good. Excellent place also if you want something different.
