This beloved East Village institution has earned its place among NYC's finest Ethiopian restaurants through decades of consistent excellence, signature dishes like Kitfo and Misir Wot, and a devoted following that spans decades. The communal dining experience—eating injera with your hands and sharing generous platters—creates an intimate, celebratory atmosphere where attentive staff and fresh, flavorful cooking command equal attention. From Valentine's Day dinners to first-time Ethiopian experiences, Awash transforms casual meals into memorable occasions with authentic preparations, reasonable prices, and an impressive array of vegetarian and vegan options that satisfy both traditional and plant-based diners.
Reviewers consistently praise Awash's flavorful, well-executed Ethiopian dishes—particularly the Kitfo, lentil dishes (especially misir wat), vegetarian and vegan samplers, and lamb with collard greens—as well as generous portions and fresh injera that work well for both dine-in and takeout. Multiple guests highlight attentive service and staff friendliness, with several noting they've been loyal customers for years or decades, though one reviewer mentioned service could be more attentive and another encountered cleaning chemical odors during afternoon opening hours. The restaurant is noted as notably vegan-friendly and offers reasonable prices.
