This vibrant eatery offers a flavorful journey through authentic dishes made with fresh ingredients and distinctive Berbere spice blends, ideal for food lovers seeking both vegan and halal-friendly options.
Starters
Begin your meal with an enticing selection of starters that showcase bold flavors and unique textures. The Kitfo Bites feature ahi tuna seasoned with a fiery Mitmita spice blend, complemented by crisped injera chips, fresh onions, and green chiles. For a lighter yet equally flavorful option, Kategna offers toasted injera drizzled with Berbere-infused oil, paired perfectly with a cooling yogurt dip.
Mains
LeYou's main courses invite you to savor traditional Ethiopian stews and grilled delicacies, all served family-style atop soft, gluten-free injera bread. Dive into the Mushroom Tibs with tender portobello mushrooms sautéed in a fragrant Berbere sauce with rosemary, onions, and jalapeños, or enjoy the Shrimp Tibs and Fish Tibs, both bursting with spicy Berbere-infused flavors. For plant-based diners, the Veggie Combo and Vegetarian Sampler feature hearty stews like Shiro, Okra, and Miser lentil stew alongside refreshing cold beets and vegetable medleys. The Bolok’ey tofu entree is a flavorful fusion of cumin, curry powder, and jalapeños. Meat lovers can indulge in classic dishes such as Doro Wot—chicken stewed with Berbere and hard-boiled eggs—and Sega Wot, a rich beef stew steeped in traditional spices.
Desserts
End your meal on a sweet note with delectable desserts that blend Middle Eastern and Ethiopian influences. Indulge in the Atayef, a delicate sweetened semolina treat infused with rose water and topped with crunchy pistachios, or savor the rich Baklava crafted from flaky phyllo dough layered with honey and nuts.
