Great little Ethiopian restaurant that's away from the main Berkeley downtown area. If it's your first time getting Ethiopian food I recommend getting one of the combination platters so you can sample many different dishes. Also be aware that you eat Ethiopian food with your hands.
Great place for dining with friends, whether meat eaters or vegetarians! Cozy atmosphere and hearty food. Cafe Colucci never disappoints.
I've been coming here for many years, and the food is outstanding every time. The best Ethiopian I've ever had, and every item is delicious and perfectly prepared. However, the service has been routinely bad for the last two or three years. I frequently wait a long time to order, run out of water, wait a long time for the check, and then wait a long time for them to pick up my payment. I love this place so much, but they really make it a slow experience. The food is just so good I can't go anywhere else for my Ethiopian fix.
Edit 2019- The management really seems to have taken the complaints regarding service seriously. The last times I've been here in winter 2018 into the new year the service has been excellent. The food is still absolutely fantastic every time.
A classic Ethiopian experience! Great food and well-priced. I will visit again when I'm in the area!
