A little about this place
About Habesha Restaurant
Habesha Restaurant is an Eritrean and Ethiopian restaurant and bar at 842 Bloor Street West in Bloorcourt, run by an owner who greets tables himself and often explains the dishes to first-timers. The kitchen serves traditional plates on injera, including kitfo, key tibs, shiro and fish, alongside vegetable stews, and staff sometimes finish a meal with a traditional coffee. The room doubles as a bar with beer and cocktails, East African music and late opening hours, and there is seating out front in warmer months. It suits a relaxed dinner or a late plate with friends.
