GS Cafe and Ethiopian Cuisine - Ethiopian restaurant in Covina - 1068 N Citrus Ave, USA

AMAZING Food, AMAZING Service, and AMAZING Authentic Ethiopian Food. Family Owned and Operated, all are super kind and humble. So much respect for the son Nate, who is young but works so hard serving and helping everyone. Great guy! Food is well priced esp for the amount of food provided and you never feel unsatisfied after eating. It's such a nice chill vibe in there. Also, my wife bought 2 beautiful scarves. Moral of the story though, this place is a staple that needs to be supported and preserved.

Great Ethiopian restaurant. Parking available in lot. Atmosphere is nice and clean. Service is great 👍 friendly staff. Food is delicious 😋 a bit on the oily side compared to other ethiopian places but still amazing. The price and portions are great ! Bring a friend and try the combo platter. Get the tej (delicious honey wine) or coffee too!

Excellent customer service by the family who owns the establishment. The son is awesome and super friendly, helpful and attentive!!! Food is amazing, and hot and beautiful presentation. Returning happy customer. Thank you 😋

Good taste and service but super oily. They said they use a lot of canola oil because it’s vegan but I’ve been to other Ethiopian spots that aren’t nearly this oily or greasy and they also make vegan food. It’s not that enjoyable when there’s puddles of grease on your plate and coating your hands. If they made it less oily and maybe used a higher quality oil like grape seed oil this place would be better.

Delicious food! We got the GS special and shared between 3 people, the perfect amount. Also had the tej and Ethiopian light larger, all amazing!

Fast, friendly, and great food. The beef veggie platter is definitely the way to go. Perfect for 2 people. Each of the different vegetables are prepared differently and they are all great. Usually with a sample platter with different foods I’ll be like (to whoever I’m with) “oh, I’ll have these and you can have those” nah. With this platter I want all of them. They are all winners.

You don’t need to go all the way to Fairfax to eat Ethiopian! This place is so good! We’ve dined in as well as done take out. Both great choices. The most recent time we visited, we got the vegetarian platter to go. When we were almost done, my husband jested, “should I hop on my scooter and get another one” cuz we demolished it in minutes. We were so stuffed I didn’t eat dinner.

We're from out of town and, loving Ethiopian food yet unable to find it in our area, we read reviews and decided to meet our friends at GS...SO glad we did! The atmosphere is warm and authentic from the moment you walk in. The young man who took our order and waited on us could not have been more delightful and the food was to die for! It was so fresh, flavorful (we had the 8 entree vegetarian combo for 2) and beyond delicious! At other Ethiopian restaurants we've found that many of the options for vegetarians/vegans taste similar to one another and/or be a bit bland...not GS's food! Each item was rich with flavor that tasted just like Ethiopian food should taste...UNIQUELY DELICIOUS! To top it off, their beer was great as was their hot tea, all made better by the way the staff (Mom cooking, son serving) made us feel...as if we dropped into their home in Ethiopia for the best meal ever! We HIGHLY recommend GS Cafe and Ethiopian Cuisine!
