Great Ethiopian food! The menu explained the dishes well and the server was very helpful. Would recommend to anyone who would like to try (and enjoy) authentic Ethiopian cooking.

This is our favorite Ethiopian restaurant. We drive 40 minutes to get here because it is worth it!!! My son is allergic to wheat and it's relatives the injeera here is made of 100% teff unlike other places where some other grains are added causing allergic reactions. The portions are just right, taste is authentic. Clean restaurant with excellent service.The food doesn't take too long to get ready which is nice when you are really hungry. I would recommend this restaurant.

Great Ethiopian food but have had better. We ordered the sampler for 2 for 46$ which was well portioned. My only critique is that it could be spicier and the lamb was quite dry. Otherwise this is a great place as an introduction into east African food.

I've eaten at Goorsha several times, both dine-in and to-go. It's been delicious every time!! The food is always fresh, healthy, and comforting. The staff is super friendly and accommodating, despite being shorthanded at times when I've gone (like many places nowadays). Make sure to get extra Ingera to soak up any leftover sauce! If you've ever thought about trying Ethiopian food or just want to try something different and tasty, Goorsha is a great place to go!

Food was delicious for the most part, the injera was a little too sour for my taste; and our waitress was lovely. However, when we requested for our checks to be split into 3 separate parties (there were only 6 meals total on the ticket), we were explicitly told “that’s too much work.” And when we explained that when we sat down, we weren’t given the option of splitting our ticket prior, we were explicitly questioned “well, did you ask?” Then the same woman went on to lecture us about how it’s our sole responsibility to mention if we want the checks split as soon as we’re seated, then she went on to explain this is how a majority of restaurants handle checks, regardless, of if that’s been our own personal experience. Her tone was very condescending and ruined my experience and perception of the restaurant. I am unsure of her role at Goorsha; however, I hope moving forward, the woman who degraded us is able to learn interpersonal skills.

Absolutely fantastic place for authentic Ethiopian restaurant. The service was delightful and quick even though it was so busy! Sit outside if you can for a great view. The food is flavorful and portions are generous – perfect for sharing!!

Everything tasted amazing. One of the meats were a bit too salty (meat entree pictured towards the top). We came in unsure of what to order, because other places we've been have combination plates or specials with a bit of everything. Our server gave us some recommendations so we tried them. It was nice that we could pick some vegan options as sides instead of the 3 listed at the bottom of the menu. Personally we didn't like the green bean carrot and collard greens sides. Definitely would come back again if we were in the area. Whole thing came out to be $53.

A fabulous and unique spot to eat. The food is delicious, flavorful, and very reasonably priced. Great Beer and Wine selection, and the staff are lovely. I highly recommend the coffee course, it's phenomenal and a great way to end the meal. I've gone here several times and I will surely be back!
