Lucy Ethiopian Cafe

So good! Really fresh & hearty. Tastes so good. I love the veggie combo! Highly recommend.

Lucy is my new favorite Ethiopian place in this part of Boston. We were devotees of Addis in the South End for years, but when they closed, went looking for nearby alternatives. Lucy has been great. Delicious veggie combos. Really nice folks who run the place. Reasonable prices.

First time trying Ethiopian cuisine and WOW, I have been missing out!! This is the best takeout I’ve had during the entire pandemic. I highly recommend you give it a try too. The spices, injera, veggies and meats were so delicious. Will be ordering from here again, yum!!

Lucy’s is amazing. The food is a rarity for the area, but is worth a commute from across the city to try. The bread, while nothing like any other I’ve had, wasted tasty, chewy, and the perfect vehicle to eat the mix of vegetables and meats. We asked for the favorites of the staff, and they had a nice conversation with us to figure out just what would be best, and I have to say it was one of the best meals I’ve had in the area. And with enough to fill leftovers for later. Certainly fatty and meaty, but a nice splurge spot and even a decent low-key date spot to show off your knowledge of Boston’s little gems.

Incredible place—I lived right around the corner for two years, and, man, was I lucky. The staff is so sweet, and the service is wicked fast, which makes it great for dates, lunch-break outings (remember those?), and shameless Sunday nights when all you want to do is order in and watch a movie. I've been missing Lucy since I moved, so you can best believe I got takeout when I was back in Boston for an appointment. Long live Lucy.
