This family-owned Ethiopian gem has earned devoted followers for its bold, authentic spices imported directly from Ethiopia and its exceptional hospitality that makes every visit feel intimate and special. The carefully crafted dishes—from rich, tender Siga Wat to aromatic Doro Wot—showcase deep, perfectly balanced flavors, while the beautifully designed space strikes an inviting balance between cozy and vibrant. With a 4.8-star rating from nearly 500 reviews and a passionate staff that goes above and beyond to educate diners and keep the injera flowing, Teff stands out as a destination-worthy restaurant that rivals Ethiopian establishments across the Northeast.
Reviewers consistently praise Teff's bold, deeply-flavored dishes, with specific standouts including siga wat (described as "rich, spicy, and fall-apart tender"), tel wat (goat), and dorho wat (spicy chicken), alongside an extensive vegan menu featuring items like Atkilt, Dinich, and Shiro. Staff attentiveness and knowledge are recurring themes, with reviewers highlighting servers' willingness to explain dishes, provide recommendations, and ensure injera bread never runs out, alongside creative cocktails and Ethiopian wine. The restaurant's intimate, welcoming atmosphere and reasonable pricing appeal to diners, though one reviewer noted the dining room felt slightly cold.
