"I can’t believe I didn't know about Ethio Beans until a month ago. I am so jazzed, I don't have to drive to Chicago anymore to get my fix of eating with injera generous portions of door wat, misir wat, and tibs. The space is simple, with a few tables, and some decorations, with a small shop where one can buy Ethiopian closing, coffee sets, and food ingredients. Service was warm and friendly, we had a nice conversation with the owner/cook/server about Erhiopia I got to share my experience when visiting my daughter in Aleltu. The food was fresh, cooked on the spot to order, flavorful, earthy, spicy, and fragrant. The Lentil Sambusas were crispy and flaky with a perfect ratio of pastry and filling. I will be coming back often, and perhaps ask for a Habesha coffee ceremony to enjoy with friends."

"Okay so food was outstanding BUT, it was eerily quiet in the restaurant. Even with other tables present no music or anything to provide a little background noise. It almost felt uncomfortable to talk because it was like everyone would be able to hear our conversation. Service was average. Not necessarily what you would expect for this price point but it wasn’t bad. Mixed drinks were horrendous and over-priced. They have a huge drink menu and out of the we ordered at the table no one liked theirs. Proportions were off and flavors were just a miss. My suggestion. Narrow the drink menu down to and have the bartenders just get good at perfecting those. Also for a basic Manhattan is absurd. This is by no means on the level of a Gibsons or Mastros where you would expect those prices. Just my"

"Granted, I can be a tough critic, but I have had some incredible dining experiences that keep my expectations high. That said, I was eager to visit Ivy, as it's been on my list to try for a long time. When we arrived for our 10 am seating for brunch, 5 minutes early, they were still setting up. We were not seated until 10 minutes later, and then still needed to wait until all the brunch stations were up and running. The atmosphere was good, plenty of space between tables, and cozy with the fireplace. The stained glass alcove was beautiful. The food was just okay and there was nothing on the buffet that really wow'd me. I will say the orange juice was delicious! The price was fair for a buffet, but I was unimpressed with the selection and left feeling that my overall experience was a little disappointing."

"YIKES... Not from the area and stopped in for breakfast with friends. Got sat quickly which was really nice...and then it went downhill from there. They shoved us at a small table and proceeded to put everything under the sun on the table, leaving us little space (group of 5). Large portions but the food was TERRIBLE. Hashbrowns were white and uncooked for our entire group. We got the butcher block omelet for two of us and it was overcooked; additionally the ham and three cheese omelet was overcooked. Pancakes taste like cardboard. The other meals for our group were sub par at best. I am truly amazed this place has 4.5 stars... really really bad food honestly."

"The food is always really good at this location. The only complaint I have is the last 2 times I’ve ordered the Rics Club there is not as much meat on the sandwich as I used to get before. I find I’m eating only lettuce and tomato at the 1/4 end of both of my halves of the sandwich which it seemed like I used to get more ham turkey and Swiss cheese on each half. Do I need to order extra meats and cheese next time?"
