Enssaro Ethiopian Restaurant
357-A Grand AvePopular ethiopian place.
One of my favorite restaurants in Oakland. Super hip, industrial feel. They have multi-levels and a few DJ's (?!), and the food is small plates style. Excellent food and drink, and great for groups. Reservations are fairly easy to come by, but be sure to make them. This place is popular! Also some great local bars and other options nearby, too.
