Ash had a dream and a distinct glimpse of Desta a few years later.
Desta Ethiopian Kitchen is certainly a one-of-a-kind experience, fusing Ethiopian culture with modern business strategies.
The vegan platter is truly amazing!! So flavorful and delicious. Definitely get the injera. Lots of food, as well - a great value imo

I upgraded the tins with awaze and it melted in my mouth. They used tender, ribeye, like I do at home. Most Ethiopian places use a tougher cheaper, cut of meat. This made all the difference in the world.
The chocolate cake was stale and overpriced at almost 9 dollars. Stick with the food not dessert.

Love their food! I used to eat a lot of Tibs in Dc and this is the most authentic Ethiopian food I've had in Smyrna/ Atlanta. The meat is grilled well and the onions are fragrant and flavorful. 🇪🇹🦁

This is my second time ordering from Desta, and both times the food has been amazing: flavorful, cooked well, and good-sized portions. This time I had sambusas, and Lamb Tibs with a side of Gomen, everything was delicious. Last time I tried to lamb ribs special, also incredible. I'll eat from here anytime I'm in Atlanta!

Hello I made dordash order and both times I was let down because the potatoes I ordered were not cooked well and crunchy. The second time I ordered mesir was crunchy as well. I also ordered tibiz which you guys add 4 or 5 meat slices and filled the plate with onions and tomato's this totally unacceptable for the prices you guys charge please make sure your sending orders that fit the hype and the description of the company.
