Contribute Feedback What Mimjy likes about Caffe Utopia:
The vegetable platter at Ethiopian restaurants is always a hit, and this one was exceptional. It featured more protein than most, with two lentil dishes, a split pea dish, and a deliciously spicy chickpea dish. The service at this restaurant is excellent as well. It's clear they are eager to attract more customers, and Caffe Utopia deserves it with their delicious food and affordable prices. View all feedback.
What Mike M doesn't like about Caffe Utopia:
Tried to go here 3 times in the last 4 months. I arrived between 11:15 and 11:30 only to find doors locked. Google says they are open at 11:00 but obviously that isn't the case. Can't go to the website because it keeps giving me forbidden error. Will give 1 star because when I was able to come here a year ago the food was very pricey but very good. Don't know what has changed but honestly it is a big disappointment. View all feedback.
Very friendly atmosphere and great food! Always happy to eat here : Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $10–20
This food was delicious! This is absolutely one of the BEST Ethiopian restaurants I went to. This one maybe the best, to be honest. The honey wine was delicious and pleasant to drink. Compared to other Ethiopian restaurants, I’ve had honey wines before that had a strong fermented bitter taste and others that were very strong. This honey wine was very smooth and pleasant to drink, with no hardness or fermented bitterness whatsoever!!! It’s perfect. I want to buy a bottle. I ordered the veggie combo with teff injera. Everything was flavorful, even the teff injera. i loved the lentils, cabbage, but my favorite was the SHIRO!! So flavorful!!!! I could eat that by itself! I cleaned the plate. My only complaint is that I wish i had more!!!! But this is about the food delicious!
The best Ethiopian food in the DMV, and maybe the USA. Lovely people. Get the honey wine! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
I decided to treat myself to Ethiopian food since it had been a while. I saw all the reviews saying this place was the best in the DMV by far. I was skeptical because every decent restaurant has a review that says that. Having grown up being introduced to Ethiopian food by my neighbors and also eating Ethiopian food throughout the rest of my life, I’ve enjoyed the local spots like Hawwi and Shagga. I couldn’t see what could make this place any better, so I decided to give them a try. EASILY Cafe Utopia has become my new go-to spot. From being offered absolutely delicious tej (similar to mead but with far better depth and complexity of flavor), to the employee Rahel being thoughtful and considerate enough to ensure I had enough food in my stomach while trying the tej, and the flavor of the food being stellar. I have three reasons alone to say this restaurant is worth anyones visit. If they were open on Sundays, I’d have visited two days in a row. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30
Delicious food and great service! I always love Ethiopian food but Caffe Utopia is a cut above definitely lives up to its name of being Utopian. A bit of a hidden gem definitely pop in if you’re in Alexandria. I’ll be back for sure. Vegetarian options: Vegan and vegetarian specialties. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free injera is available Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30
