The food is delicious and healthy, with each order prepared fresh.The service is fantastic. They are friendly and attentive.Great location right in Nubian Square, accessible by T and with parking nearby.This is my go to spot when I'm on my healthy eating kick, or just looking for something warm and hardy but not too heavy. Great vegetarian options that will satisfy even a meat eater like myself.Vegetarian options: Many ethnic variations. Too many to list, but some of the tastiest and I have experienced. Let's just say it's tough to decide because they all look so good! ?Parking: Municipal and street
I only had the chance to sample the Ethiopian coffee, which was delightful with a hint of cinnamon. As soon as I walked in, I recognized the owner, who has been running the original Fasika Restaurant in Somerville for what feels like decades; I've visited her other restaurant many times over the years. This is a cozy little shop with just a few tables. If I'm in the area again, I will definitely try their food, as Ethiopian cuisine is one of my favorites. I don't expect to be disappointed, especially since their Somerville location is one of my top picks.
This was my first experience at an Ethiopian restaurant, and I was truly impressed. The group I dined with ordered a range of dishes, all of which looked and smelled fantastic, but most of us chose the combo for one. It came with injera bread topped with a variety of side dishes. The flavors were incredible, and the portion size was definitely worth the price. Eating with your hands added a fun and unique touch to the meal. The interior is somewhat cozy, but there is outdoor seating available for those who prefer it!
My husband and I visited for a vegetarian and vegan dinner, and everything was absolutely delicious! My top picks were the tofu tibs (I will definitely be back for this dish!) and the tikil gomen. My husband particularly enjoyed the yemis wot and tegabino. The service was excellent, and the food was fantastic! For those seeking vegetarian options, there are plenty of delicious choices—be sure to try the tofu tibs!

Such a great place, the staff attended us briefly and in a friendly. A bit on the smaller side in terms of seating. We ordered the beef sambusas and they were amazing. For our entree we had the Yebeg Lamb Tibs and they were wonderfully cooked. Overall around 25 dollars per person. Highly recommend
Very good food. Injera was fresh warm, the dishes were all spiced perfectly.Sit down service but pay at the counter for anyone else that is anxious about looking like you don’t know what you’re doing!
Delicious food. Authentic flavors. Fresh injera. Totally worth the trip. The owner was kind to me and my 3 teens arriving for for a full dinner 30 minutes before closing.
Fabulous food and fabulous service. The gored gored is seriously filet mignon quality, perfectly spiced. Family owned and run: made us feel right at home.

Delicious authentic Ethiopian food in a modest setting. Friendly, attentive, and quick service. Sambusa was bomb and the combo for two filled us up
Extremely tasty (especially the tofu tibs). If you haven't yet tried Fasika Cafe, you may be missing out...
