This place serves the best Ethiopian food! Their service excellent, friendly & quick! Definitely a plus when we go to Phoenix as we are out of state!

A friend and I ate here recently. We did sort of question the looks and location, however once inside we were warmly greeted. We both had the Gojo Combo and I have to say of the three Ethiopian restaurants we have tried in the valley this is the best of the three. The combo gave us a great taste of the veggie and meat options. Yum! Definitely recommend.

Pretty solid, inexpensive, good-value Ethiopian food in a no-frills setting. I showed up looking for a quick lunch, and that's what I got. I ordered their veggie combo ($16 plus tax), which comes with 7 different veggie dishes and injera. The highlights were definitely the misir wot and the shiro (middle and bottom middle), with the other dishes being rather middling. Good portion, good value and pleasant service. Solid spot.

No frills place with Great prices and good food. Had the Gojo platter so we got to try most of the items and also had the meat sambusso. The staff were very nice as well. A good option for Ethiopian food!

Downright home cooked Ethiopian food full of flavor and authenticity. The veggie dishes were soooo good...coupled with the spicy Awaze Tibs and the meat dishes... such a satisfying Ethiopian food fix. The restaurant is a no frills hole in the wall ...but the authentic meal and coffee ceremony set up is legit!

I thoroughly enjoyed the meal and will definitely be back. It's been a while since I've had decent Ethiopian food. I particularly liked that they offered gluten-free bread when I mentioned my preference. Overall, the meal was excellent, and the woman who served me was very nice and accommodating to my vegan diet. Tasty

We enjoyed our dinner at Gojo! The vegetarian options were all excellent. The meat options, the sauce was great however the meat texture was a bit tough to eat. Loved the decor. Service was a bit slow but very friendly staff so we didn't mind. We will be coming back!

Any bad review about this place is pure delusion. The food here is amazing and seasoned to perfection, every time I come here the flavor is consistent and the previous time. I've been to other Ethiopian restaurants and this one reigns superior. The service and ambiance is okay, nothing too crazy or exciting but I'm not letting that get in the way of how good the food is. Don't second guess trying this place because if you do then you're missing out on a good food experience.
