Got the #15 combination plate for dinner and an extra side of rentals. The lamb in the combo was my favorite 😍 definitely ordered extra injera! Lively atmosphere, but still came in at 6:30 and was able to grab a table for 4 with no wait. Full bar, tasty food with lots of vegetarian and vegan options, plus nice waitstaff!

Great New Eritrea /Ethiopian restaurants. I got the classic vegetarian dish tumtumo and it was delicious. The owner (?) spent some time talking to me and telling me about the history of New Eritrea which I was clueless about. Nice guy! And great food.

I went to this place with my friends after a tango class and we decided to try the big vegetarian combo with injera for 5 people. They have a variety of African and Chilean wines in case you would like to try their drinks 🍸 😉

We are fortunate to have spent time in DC where the largest population of Ethiopians live outside of the home country. Lots of Ethiopian restaurants. New Eritrea is spot on with every dish. Can’t wait to go back b

First time dining here. We had Manna as our server. We asked him to serve us whatever he'd like for a group of five and he didn't disappoint. My favorite in the platter was the Kilwa Begee (lamb, bottom left next to collard greens), Okra (top right above carrots), and Shiro (split pea, bottom yellow). The St. George beer was also good. It's kind of sweet with notes of honey. We also learned that the Injera bread is gluten-free, which is made of teff flour and processed like sourdough with a starter and baked on a crepe grill. Also, eat with your hands, right hands. It's so much fun.

Great food and cool spot! Only reason I didn't give 5 stars was we asked the waiter for a box for our leftovers and she said she'd get one, but then just threw the extra food away 😞

Despite little competition for Ethiopian / Eritrean food in SF, this place is great! 2 person vegetarian platter is plenty of food! About $40 after tax. Absolutely delicious. Only complaint was extra injera was a $1 extra. Salaam was a great hostess!

I went here for my birthday in May and it was absolutely delicious! We had the vegetarian combo and meat combo as well as sambusa and some ginger ales. My daughter who is usually picky really enjoyed this and the server made sure she got a mild spice meat. I can’t wait to come here again. The service was quick and friendly too!
