Awaze Ethio Fusion & Vegan Restaurant in Artesia

What heaven! Such bliss! I almost cried it was so delicious. You can taste the love put into the food and the flavors are just indescribable. You have to try it for yourself.The Ethiopian coffee was presented in a ceremonious way that made me feel special and served.It is hard to find Ethiopian food and this place absolutely did not disappoint. If I could give it 10 stars I would!!FYI, the place is on the second floor!

A vegan friendly place in Artesia! The peaceful ambience during the Friday hustle and bustle in Artesia is simply lovely and I love all the incredible vegan/vegetarian options here. I got an injera wrap for my flight and it was incredible.

Best Ethiopian food!!!The food was delicious, and the people were so kind and polite. I highly recommend this place.

I ordered (to-go) the veggie combo special and the shorba (soup) and it was good! It was my first time trying Ethiopian food and I like it! I’ll have to go in on a Friday night to try out their buffet, it looks amazing! The interior of this restaurant looks so beautiful! (The outside is horrible looking because it is in a plaza with other shops).

Service was so friendly! Food is awesome. It was my first ethio food ever and love it so much....😋 You should try it !!!! Sampler is the best !!

Went with my parents, including my mom who has a lot of food allergies (gluten, milk, eggs). The owner, Abai, carefully confirmed that the giant sampler of food on the menu would all be safe for her. There were at least ten different meat and vegetable dishes, plus Abai brought us extra injera bread. A couple of dishes were a bit spicy for me (dad loved them!) but everything was delicious. Were definitely going back to try more of the menu.

Absolutely delicious food and super friendly staff!! So excited to have finally found amazing Ethiopian food close enough to us to come and eat regularly. It is on the second floor of a somewhat dilapidated business complex but dont let that turn you off. The minute you walk in it is sparkling clean, somebody greeted us immediately. He made recommendations on what to get and it was fantastic. It was pretty quiet on a Saturday night which made me sad because this place deserves to be packed!!

Visited this new Ethiopian restaurant in Artesia. I had a taste of their food on the Taste of Cerritos, event and wanted to eat at their restaurant. The restaurant is on the first floor of the Little India complex. The restaurant is spacious with good decor. The kitchen is semi open and you can see the food being made. We had a veggie combo platter, the selections were varied but unlike other Ethiopian restaurants I have visited you get only one serving of the dish on the plate. The injera was unlimited but it was slightly sour and dry for me. The veggie dishes had a spicy kick to it which I liked, however the taste was just ok in comparison to other Ethiopian restaurants. They also have a buffet menu on Friday which I may try. Very good service and nice ambience, would have given 4 stars if the taste factor was little high.

Food was soooo good! It was my friends and I first time eating Ethiopian food. We got the huge platter plus two other entrees, three orders of appetizers! The lamb dish and beef stew as well as sambusa 10/10 - recommended! Also Everything you eat is by hand so don’t be surprised. Immerse yourself in their culture. Everything is super flavorful and full of amazing spices. If you’re not a picky eater, this is a great place to try! The staff was very nice! We went right when it opened so they were still prepping, oops. But overall very good food!

Love this place! I used to have to drive from Long Beach to Little Ethiopia when I wanted Ethiopian food, and now I can just slide over to Cerritos! Great food, excellent service. The place is beautiful and very welcoming
