Best WLM Reviews
Recently, my friends and I came by Yeshi Kitfo in Virginia.
As we were out the night before hanging out late, we looked forward to a great Ethiopian restaurant for a RECOVERY. Convincingly, we all agreed to stop by our favorite restaurant Yeshi Kitfo and it was NO disappointment. Everything was delicious and satisfying. We ordered 6-7 dishes from meat to vegetarian and all were phenomenal.
I highly recommend this restaurant for friends and family! Great food and customer service!
I had the most incredible experience at Yeshi Kitfo Ethiopian Cuisine! The vegetarian platter was beyond delicious—every bite was packed with vibrant flavors and fresh ingredients. My server, Selam, made the evening even more special with her sweet, attentive, and helpful service. She truly went above and beyond. The atmosphere was just perfect—great music, warm lighting, and a sense of intimacy, while still feeling open and welcoming. It’s the kind of place you want to come back to again and again. Highly recommend for a wonderful dining experience!
They have this warm cozy ambiance with a fake fireplace. When they do the coffee ceremony, you can smell incense. They have a shared parking lot. It’s fairly quiet in here if you want an intimate dinner.
We got the Shiro (Chickpea powder soup)
Veggie Combo

Ethiopian Coffee Ceremony. The injera was spicy but I couldn’t even handle the salad so that says how weak I’m. The Ethiopian coffee ceremony so interesting to see. How they roast the beans to get this rich taste and we drank it after our meal. If you’re wanting to try authentic Ethiopian food, come here!
The service was bit slow but we did have 10 people basically ordering the entire menu and made it a feast. Maybe just little bit more lighting near the bathroom and have it stocked. Also, have an open sign out front so people on the street can see
Yeshi kitfo has exceeded my expectation . I was looking for a good Ethiopian restaurant in the northern Virginia area and I have never looked any where else. I highly recommend this place for any person who likes to indulge an amazing Ethiopian cuisine .
Yeshi Kitfo is an absolute gem for anyone craving authentic Ethiopian cuisine in Virginia. From the moment you walk in, the warm and inviting ambiance makes you feel right at home. The decor reflects Ethiopian culture beautifully, creating a cozy yet vibrant atmosphere perfect for family dinners, date nights, or catching up with friends.
The food is nothing short of phenomenal. Every dish is packed with flavor, and the ingredients taste incredibly fresh. Their kitfo is perfectly seasoned, tender, and pairs wonderfully with the traditional sides. Whether you’re new to Ethiopian cuisine or a longtime fan, you’ll find the menu to be a delightful experience.
The service is just as impressive. The staff is welcoming, attentive, and eager to share the culture and stories behind the dishes. They make you feel valued as a guest and ensure every aspect of your visit is exceptional.
If you’re looking for a restaurant that serves incredible food with outstanding service and a memorable atmosphere, Yeshi Kitfo is a must-visit. Highly recommend!
Salem was my server and provided my first Ethiopian dining experience. She was very polite and took time to show me the proper way to enjoy the food. The meal was delicious and I left with a larger belly and a smile. I plan to return for more. Thank you Salem!
The food was wonderful! Excellent flavor!! The special Kitfo is awesome and they have a light teff enjera that’s really nice. They serve it with traditional cheese, spinach and a small mix of both that by far the best option. Their Awaze tibs is also yummy! The atmosphere is midday cafe, large comfy booths, rustic but chic hanging fixtures, on a tree trunks with rope, a little incense burning in background, lots of natural sunlight. Great place to work for lunch or go for dinner. They have a bar and TVs around the pale yellow walls with vaulted ceilings and lots of greenery! Great calming energy ???? The pic below is what was left of our Awaze tibs because it was too good, we devoured it! Do come here and don’t forget to order their traditional tea steeped with cardamom, ginger and other spices!
offers fantastic food and a wonderful atmosphere. The BK-Tibes was delicious, and the staff was attentive and friendly. Highly recommend for a great dining experience. Can't wait to return!
