2023-09-13 02:13:19We ordered one vegetarian combo and one meat combo for three people. The waiter believed that thats all we need. Indeed, not only we were all very full, we couldnt finish the plate.All items were tasty. We liked them.

2023-08-14 00:29:49Yummy food, tasty honey wine! It was our third Ethiopian restaurant and experience was good. Shiro, shrimp tibs were yummy. We called a day before on timings and still were told wrong but owner was nice to let us sit in. Google has latest so refer that. Enjoy!

2023-04-13 16:17:00Mudai Restaurant is a hidden gem in the downtown area of San Jose. The food is absolutely delicious and delightful, made with savory spices and always fresh. The spongy and malty bread called Injera compliments the food. The service is always great and served with a smile. We love this establishment and visit often. Try their Honey wine, it pairs well with any choice of entree you pick. Our favorite is the Veggie Combo, served family style. As a reminder of Ethiopian food, it is served without utensils so be prepared to eat with your hands/fingers. Parking is limited so be prepared for that too. Enjoy!

2023-05-07 02:18:38The go-to spot for Ethiopian for my wife and I. Food is insanely tasty and filling, and the service is always friendly, informative, and flexible. The location isnt glamorous, but the restaurant itself is nice on the inside and the experience is hard to beat. Great food for both meat eaters and vegetarians alike.One thing we love is that they offer 100% teff-flour injeras, which are perfect for my wife with Celiac, or anyone else who eats gluten free. I cant guarantee they dont cross-contaminate, but my wife never reported any problems.

2023-12-10 14:39:20I love Ethiopian food. LOVE. There are no restaurants within 2 hours of my home, so I love trying new ones when visiting other cities. I tried Mudai & I will be returning!It is a hole in the wall, but relatively clean. The host was friendly & the food was delicious. I ordered a vegetarian platter with a side of doro wat. I had enough leftovers for a second dinner, breakfast, & lunch the next day. The food is a touch on the spicy side compared to other places, which was OK for me. Highly recommend!

2022-12-30 05:09:11Great restaurant for Ethiopian food. Awesome for take out or to dine in. Friendly staff. Always lots of conversation to be had with staff as well as customers. Food is delicious and fresh! Team will describe and explain menu if not familiar with the food. Order spicy, vegan, mild, or get a sampler. Lots of yummy, soft injera (Ethiopian bread to accommodate the stews).

2023-04-02 02:18:48The food and the experience is authentic. From the moment you stop in you do feel a sense of family and the portion sizes are perfect. One meat combo is enough for one person plus leftovers it does have a nice spice balance.I will definitely come back

2021-12-22 18:14:37Absolutely loved the Ethiopian cuisine. Has a striking similarity to South Indian cuisine. We each had a Sambussa ( more like a Samosa but with lentil filling ) and 2 Vegetarian combos for the 3 of us, and it was more than filling. The Ingeras are an healthier option since it’s made of Teff.The sides that were offered with the combo were pretty good.Customer service is excellent.Scan the QR code attached for the menu options.Definitely recommended ✅
