Very delicious restaurants that have vegan options. We ordered vegan platter plus a beef stew. They are so yummy! I enjoyed the all the flavors. The injera bread is amazing as well. The space is open and clean. The service is fast and friendly. I would recommend this place for sure.
The Vegan Special was extremely good! All of the veggies were fresh and cooked perfectly. Also, their injera is the best I've ever had!
I love their vegan special. I've been to many Ethiopian restaurants and Lucy is my favorite one
