Great, flexible staff & delicious food. The menu had a lot of breakfast and sweet drink options. Great community and lots of flavors to try.

Fast internet, delicious coffee, delectable injera and eggs. Great Ethiopian tunes. The best spot to get some work done, meet with friends, or relax. And all time great spot.

This place absolutely rules. The food is excellent - the best in the neighborhood by my measure. Adding to the delicious food, the service is fantastic. If you're looking for Ethiopian, look no further.

Simply amazing food served family style. Flavors authentic, great service. Only wish the wine selection was better.

Yebig Tibs (lambs) 4.5/5 would get again. Tofu Wat - 3/5 , Tomotaey but good. Would try something else next time though. - First time having Ethiopian. Almost asked for a spoon and made these into burritos lol. But we ate it right instead. - Would come again, hoping to try some soups next. ............................................

This is a wonderful place. The quality of the food and service is very good. We have been coming here for years and often recommend it to friends.

I recently ordered from Kaffa Crossing and enjoyed my meal. I used to frequent this establishment many years ago, and I've never taken the time to write a review until now.The Yebbeg Tips had the perfect amount of spice and tenderness. It was also incredibly affordable for the amount I received. However, it was the okra dish that was my favorite this time. The okra was cooked to perfection, with a unique blend of spices. What I appreciate most about Kaffa Crossing is the consistency in the quality of their food and hospitality. If you're looking for a place with both great food and a welcoming ambiance, Kaffa Crossing is the perfect choice. It's a place that I'm grateful to have rediscovered.

Came to this place because a waiter at an Ethiopian restaurant in NYC told us he used to go to Kaffa Crossing for the kitfo, which we did not try this time. Overall, pretty good flavor, especially for the price! Quality was overall good. Sambusas were great, nicely spiced. The beef in the special tibs was a bit chewy, but the seasoning and spice level were great. I liked the shiro wot, but it wasn't my favorite, and my husband said the shiro was a bit bland. The veggie combo was also a tad on the "healthy-tasting" side--the greens especially were a bit undercooked/bitter. But compared to the last Ethiopian place we went to in Philly, this experience was great! Service was slow because there was only one waitress, but it wasn't egregiously bad. Casual ambience, though the lights were turned down for some mood lighting after we walked in haha.
