Ghion Ethiopian Restaurant

Stopped here while working a night shift for some takeout, and the service was exceptional. The woman behind the counter brought me water and we had a great conversation while I waited for the food. When the to-go box came out it was quite literally bursting at the seams with injera, so she recommended I eat some before leaving. The injera was fantastic, the ribs were flavorful, and the sides (I got string beans and split peas) were to die for. You can't go wrong. I have never felt so at home while trying to get takeout. I can imagine the service is even better if you dine in.

I went to Ghion because I had never tried Ethiopian food and it was so so so good!! The chicken stew with injera was awesome, and the owners are super nice. I am now a huge fan of Ethiopian food and excited to try it again!

Had dinner here with friends on a Friday night. Had the 7 vege combo with juicy beef between 3 people. Friendly service, the beer was tasty, and the food was delicious. The best I have had. The spicy lentils, collard greens, and beef were just a few of the favourites. I wish I could find a place like this in New Zealand.

This place is amazing. Everyone needs to eat here right now. I ordered beef jerky and spicy lentils, and instructed the man behind the counter to pick his choice of Ethiopian beers. He brought back St. George, which was delicious. The entire time, his demeanor was incredibly friendly and welcoming. My meal did not disappoint. Portion size was generous, and included a side of injera. The food was served hot, and the quality was fantastic. I ordered a second beer. The atmosphere was bright and welcoming, with exposed brick, checkered table cloths, and vibrant colors on the wall. The warmly lit bar area created a friendly and inclusive vibe. Several times, the man checked on me to ensure I was enjoying my meal. I was enjoying myself and let him know it. He insisted I write this review, an

We went to a show at the 9:30 Club and it had its good points. It was a long drive for us from where we live now and some parts of the evening could have been better. The little Ethiopian joint across the street, however, was amazing. In retrospect, Ghion was the best part of our evening. We stopped in for a bite before the show and I was hoping it would be ok. I had really talked up Ethiopian restaurant food and service. My wife had yet to experience it but the other places I had eaten were good and I was hoping for a repeat. Ghion made me look good. First of all, I defy you to get more stuffed for less money and on food that is that delicious anywhere in the city! We tried SO hard not to eat until we were uncomfortable and neither of us were completely successful. It was Just. So. Yummy!
