Taste of Ethiopia II sits on South Congress Avenue in Austin's Greater South River City area, the second location of a small operation whose original restaurant, Taste of Ethiopia, runs out of Pflugerville just north of the city.
The restaurant serves Ethiopian dishes in a family-style format geared toward sharing, with banquet-style spreads that draw groups and regulars back for repeat visits. Diners consistently point to the hospitality here — staff warmth that shows up again and again in what people say about the place — along with a sense of cultural connection and nostalgia for those familiar with Ethiopian home cooking.
