I'm in love. Had this delivered. First time trying Ethiopian food. The Veggie Samosa was so good, packed full, and very flavorful. The beef one was also stuffed with filings, but I prefer the flavor of the veggie and the sauce that came with them was unique and perfect. I got a side of rice, delicately spiced, ideal to go with the mains. I got the veggie and meat 6 items. The Tikel Gomen was my least favorite, but still a good dish. Selsi was very good, not as spicy as I thought. Foselia was super good, great textures. Dero Wat, I loved it was on the bone, and tender. Red Tibs Lamb had larger chunks, good flavor. The Zilzil Wot was my favorite! I got the gluten-free Injera, I enjoyed the texture and tang. The salad, while simple, was so well done, fresh and bright, and held up through the 30 min drive. Cons? my samosas were over cooked. It got sloshed around during the delivery, but that's not the restaurants fault.

We found it helpful to study the menu online prior to going. We're visiting & this was recommended by my vegan brother. All of our party enjoyed our yummy food with meat and veggies and grains & fun experience, except my mom who complained about how improper it was to eat with your hands. lol. But mom, they have forks-lets just ask. No, no. Its ok. Grumble grumble. Spicy or not, it was yummy. We liked it so much, went back again!

It was my first time having Ethiopean food... food was full of flavor and the texture of the bread was surprising yet tasty. Our host told us how to eat our meal in the authentic way, as done in Ethiopia, but he did have forks for us just in case we couldn't cope with the traditional custom. Good food, good service and the price was just fine too!

I’ve been coming to this place for years and it never disappoints. If I have someone who wants to try something different, I take them here. If you order something you don’t like the first time around, try again. You’re bound to discover something tastier!

I try Ethiopian food whenever I can, which is maybe twice a year. First time here and it was the BEST I have ever had. Our server was great, and the food was out of the park. Highly recommend. (Note*the avocado juice with milk was spot on)

This place is by far one of my favorite spots to eat at when I’m visiting Boise. The people here are just so nice and so helpful not to mention the food is absolutely amazing! There hasn’t been one single thing on the menu that I haven’t liked. It’s always fresh! The atmosphere in kibroms is so relaxing and just a great place all around to take your family and friends to. I love the food at kibroms if you haven’t had ethiopian food please do you will not be dissatisfied not dissapointed.
