Welcome to Enat Ethiopia Café

Enat Ethiopian Café & Mart is the culmination of a love story that is the reflection of a mother’s legacy, a tradition of hospitality, the need to serve, food and culture. Martha Kebede is the owner of Enat Ethiopian Café & Mart and the restaurant is a tribute to her Enat, which means mother in Ethiopian.

Martha’s mother’s given name was Assefasch. Assefasch was known throughout her community for helping citizens in need, and the local clergy would refer them to her. She would open up her home to them cheerfully with a warm smile, an endearing hug, accommodations, and a good meal. For her charity the local priesthood honored her with the name Enat Ethiopia, because she symbolized the best traits of Ethiopia.

Ethiopian dishes enjoy an international reputation for excellence. The opportunity to sample them in their original surrounding should not be missed! Our Restaurant has traditional sitting and decoration. All items on the menu are prepared from herbs and spices imported from Ethiopia and the recipes have been handed down from generation to generation for over three thousand years. Ethiopian utensils are your God created hands. Dipping or scooping food is an Ethiopian tradition using the flat bread called injera.
