Traditional Ethiopian on S Stone Ave
Traditional Ethiopian cooking anchors Cafe Desta at 758 S Stone Ave. Lunch and dinner fit the format, with casual service and standard pacing for a regular sit-down meal.
Tikil-gomen, lamb tibs, vegan signature plate
Tikil-gomen, lamb tibs, and the vegan signature plate give the table three named reference points. Conversational noise and casual dress make Cafe Desta workable for an unforced lunch or dinner plan.
