Deven Arora-Phraviseth: Food: 5/5

Natnael Ghezae: Best Habesha food nearby. Clean and neat place.

Arup Mukherjee: Wow... I have been to many good Ethiopian restaurants and this could definitely be the one with the best food. A minor issue was that we went late and they had run out of injera, so our choices were French bread or rice. That issue notwithstanding, the meal was excellent. Too bad I forgot to take some pictures, but they would not have captured the taste anyway!An unexpected bonus was that their prices are also very reasonable for the area!

Walia Ethiopian Cuisine: what do users think?

Catherine Winslow: was light fluffy fresh moist and the perfect amount of sourdough like taste.The fresh milk cheese was fluffy and moistCan't wait to go again

Zach Sarsoza: I got the veggie sampler+lamb tibs.Lamb was tender, juicy, and flavorful. It's sauce enhanced its flavor, so it wasn't too gamey.I personally like my lentils a bit spicy. Still had good flavor. The rest of the veges are good but not extraordinary.Service is good. Self seating and food comes out fast.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel chair accessible.

Melanie Vega: Came here with 5 other friends and enjoyed the food a lot. We shared 2 family platters, which was plenty of food, and we even had a little bit leftover. Would come here again.Parking: The parking lot isn't huge, so we had some trouble finding spots to park. There is a mix of normal pull-in spots and some spots that require parallel parking.

Nicole Maruya: The best

Gojo: what do users think?

Ashley Williams-Pulford: We drove over from the central valley and had a craving for Ethiopian food. This place really delivered. Almost deceiving when we entered for a late lunch, only one other couple was there finishing their meal. We were drawn in by the smell of the delicious aromatics and a warm smile from a man who was going to be our server, chef, and Ethiopian hot sauce/seasonings expert. Needless to say, everything was wonderful.

De Spencer: this place is AMAZING!!! don't let these snowflakes who are scared regarding the location tell you different. the customer service is probably the best customer service i've experienced! they are super friendly and educational on the food and spices. the food was extremely good and there was plenty! we got the meat combo and veggie combo. the area is a safe area and i WILL be going back.

Jubba Somali Restaurant: what do users think?

Ninja: We had the #2 Beef Suqaar and #6 Tilapia Filets. Came with grilled vegetables, rice, and salad. Both so delicious! They also had a spicy sauce on the side that was so good!It is a hidden spot with no website, but they had a lot of customers coming in and out when we were there. They need to advertise because so many people are missing out!Will definitely go back to this restaurant!Parking: Big parking lot access the street. I think it’s for the light rail, but it is still free parking 😁

S B: Best food we tried in the Bay, large portions.Food: 5/5Recommended dishes Beef Wrap, Jubba Chicken Wrap, Sambusa and Mandazi, Roasted Goat Cutlet with Rice, Chicken Suqaar with Rice Parking options Free parking lot …

Alice Hou: As a first-timer trying Somali cuisine, I was surprised by the bold flavors and unique combinations.I got the Sports Plate that's the combination of beef and goat was a match made in culinary heaven.Juicy Beef Slices: The beef slices were tender, juicy, and seasoned with onions, fresh vegetables, and aromatic spices. Each bite was a burst of flavor.Roasted Goat Cutlet: The star of the show! The traditional Somali dish featuring goat meat was nothing short of amazing. The meat was infused with authentic spices, resulting in a rich, savory flavor. Paired with Chapatti, it was a symphony of taste.My favorite is the goat. It was tender, succulent, and packed with flavor!

Zahra Ali: Very impressed with the food and the flavors!We got steak plate with pasta and it was very interesting. The beef was a bit hard and lacked salt but it came with a lot of spaghetti, veggies, & salad. Overall the steak was 3/5.We also got the Sports Platter with Chicken & Goat Cutlet, along with Chapati & Rice. Chapati was really soft and a good change from same old Naan/Parathas. The rice was very flavorful & delicious. Chicken was one of the most delicious chicken I’ve had. I will give the chicken 10/10.The Goat cutlets were roasted goat pieces and they were good. It’s an acquired taste so if you are not used to of having Goat then be open-minded about this one. I give the Goat 4/5. The platter was huge and more than enough for 2 people with lots of Salad, veggies, & rice.I can definitely come back for their chicken!

Ethio-LunchBox Ethiopian: what do users think?

龔振勝: .After we came in though, the sign was immediately flipped to "Close". Don't think they were expecting to serve food on New Years Evening, but there were others just hanging out and having a good time. Only complaint I had, was the tea. Although they used Lipton tea bags, they managed to put the right spices in there to give it a slight hint of that flavor I'm used to when it comes to Ethiopian tea. Not the best, but it wasn't bad considering what they were dealing with. I'd come back again if I was in the area!

James Li: Excellent food and excellent service at reasonable prices! The injera is very good and definitely worth ordering extra!The veggie combo was very delicious with wonderful spice combinations and probably some of the best collard greens I’ve ever had.Probably some of the best coffee I’ve ever had too. Very smooth with no bitterness or tannins even drunk straight black.

Brynn Schor: And we had plenty to finish our meal. Portions were large- I even had leftovers to take home- and prices were very reasonable. It's a small place and a few people were gathered to watch the soccer game. Made it feel like a neighborhood place. We'll be going back!Dietary restrictions: My partner has celiac and so the gluten free injera was perfect for him

Anime Your Way Official: Stopped in for a quick bite with a honey wine both were delicious!Vegetarian options: I had 3 veggie options that were tasty and fillingParking: Street parking

Hirut Haile Selassie: Love the Teff Enjera. My daughter who eats only gluten free diets was very happy. After four days it was still fresh.Recommended dishes …

LeYou Ethiopian: what do users think?

Mika'ele Keni': - 5/5 Medium SpicyI wasn't aware of an Ethiopian dish with seafood, let alone raw fish until I tried this. Very tasty. Packed with flavor. I haven't had a raw Tuna dish like this before, best way I can describe it is ground Poké with an extra flavor burst.

Michaelin Mole: The Michelin star is well deserved! We tried two combination platters. Very flavorful very delicious. The waiter was very supportive to help us make the right decision. We also tried their special tea and baklava. The tea was an explosion of flavors like the food was too. I did not expect much from the baklava and was positively surprised. It had pistachio and walnut and the seasoning was very good and different to Turkish seasoning, which I am used to.We will definitely come again.

Ronak Gandhi: Recommended dishes Lentils, Sambusa, Injera Recommendation for vegetarians Highly recommend Vegetarian offerings Large vegetarian selection

Jeanette: Loved everything at LeYou Ethiopian. The taste was more refined than any of the other Ethiopian restaurants we had been, a good ambience, and friendly service. Thank you!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free, vegetarian, vegan.

Manny Seretse: While on a business trip to Santa Clara, I decided to explore an Ethiopian/Eritrean restaurant, and it exceeded all expectations. The decor and cleanliness were exceptional, and the service surpassed what I anticipated.I ordered the lamb dish Awaze Tibs, which came with a generous portion of lentils and salad on the side, along with GoJo Ethiopian beer brewed in the US. Although the beer was just okay, I tried it nonetheless. Overall, I highly recommend this establishment. Kudos to the outstanding service and cleanliness maintained by the restaurant. Keep up the great work!

John St.Hilaire: Nice food was great just hard to communicate with the people that work there and it was a wonderful experience I would definitely eat there again !!!!!Dietary restrictions: They worked with our problem and definitely try them out
