Demera - Chicago

I had never eaten Ethiopian food before. It was an enjoyable experience. A friend and I came here to celebrate her graduation. Employees were so nice and the server was very patient. We ordered the beef and cheese sambussas. Delicious with the sauce they were served with. We shared the Demera Messob for 2: Doro Wot, Ye-beg Wot, Lega Tibs, Dinich Wot(very spicy , Tikle Gomen(omg! , Yatkilt Wat. Honey Wine Sangria and Indaba Sauvignon Blanc, South Africa were both delicious. I’m not into vodka but I’d surely order the sangria myself. We shared their take on Tiramisu which was fantastic! It has their homemade ice cream instead of the custard. I can’t recommend this place enough. It was delicious!!

I really enjoyed the Sambussa. It is definitely my favorite appetizer

Great restaurant weekend experience! that was my friend and I first fed here and we enjoyed the food quality and service. our server was helpful to consider the menu points and adjustment options, and the meals were taken out in a reasonable time. I recommend this place and plan to visit again!

We were all disappointed. the service was very slow for post covid. it was our first time in the restaurant and we wanted to order a guide. we couldn't hear the waitress very well because according to the restaurant was and she wasn't too interested to help us. the drinks were terrible. only have water and surely their money. that was so. we had much better Ethiopian food. we will not return.

When I was looking for restaurants during the chicago restaurant week, this was the only restaurant that appeared when I was looking for African cuisine. Although I used to eat Ethiopian cuisine, it was a past. that was a great experience that has revived me! authentic eating, pleasant environment, great drinks and good service. I'm back!
