" Best Ethiopian food in the city. "
Food Explorer
" Been craving Ethiopian food and found Gohe easy to locate with an extensive menu. The meat platter — including Doro wot, Alecha Wot and Key Wot beef stews plus vegetable dishes and plenty of injera — was very tasty and very spicy. Quick, attentive service and satisfying Ethiopian espresso to finish the meal. "
Regular Diner
" Gone here many, many times and it's always been amazing food. You get lots for your money and the hot sauce is to die for. Pickup orders are ready in a reasonable time and although food can take a bit longer when dining in, the wait is worth it. "
Vegan Food Lover
" The veggie platter served over rice is large and delicious. Gohe's food is spicier than some other Ethiopian options in the city in a way that will appeal to spice lovers. The variety and preparation of lentil and vegetable dishes is excellent. Staff are sweet and friendly. Strongly recommend for tasty, affordable vegan choices. "
