I happen to love Ethiopian food and was happy to discover Gojo. I thought the lunch buffet was great and the price of $7.95 reasonable, and the owners warm and professional. I've often eaten there when there were only one or two other people there. It's a bit off the beaten track physically and cuisine wise so I'm not surprised. It's not a reflection of the quality of the food which is excellent.

Went there at noonish - no one else in the place for the lunch buffet, now I know why. VERY overpriced at $7.95 for the meager selection. The man said he'd "guarantee" we'd (three of us) like the food (we explained we'd never had ethopian food before). One of us made a small plate, took two bites, and said he could not eat it. The man looked at us and said "oh well." Being a vegetarian, there was actually a better selection for me, but not enough for the price and no dessert or anything, plus beverages are extra. A meat-eater in our party said there was hardly any chicken in the lone chicken dish on the buffet. Won't be going there again!!!

I've been enjoying the cuisine at Little Africa ever since it opened and have to wonder where the other reviewers were eating. . . the food is absolutely the BEST Ethiopian food I've ever had. The injera bread is fantastic, it's never once broken ap ...

I was regular at one time. The food actually made me feel energized which made me hooked on going there. I'm now in Iraq and will be home soon. I can't wait to try one of the combos.
