Ethiopian Lunch With Tableside Jebena Coffee in San Diego

Dine with vegan and meat eating friends at a neighborhood table where Normal Heights meets City Heights.

Make time for the coffee ceremony.

☕ A Tableside Tradition

Let a slow Saturday morning stretch toward a table at Addis Ethiopian Restaurant. At 3647 El Cajon Boulevard, traditional Ethiopian recipes put a meal at the meeting point of Normal Heights and City Heights. Make this family run spot the anchor of a weekend that leaves room to sit down.

The dining room has served the East African community in San Diego and neighborhood locals for a decade. Vegan diners can share the table with meat eaters, a welcome starting point when your group eats differently. Head across town for a meal here, or stop in after a show at The Soda Bar.

Coffee gets its own moment, with tableside jebena coffee ceremonies alongside the food. Bring the conversation with you and leave a little space in the afternoon for that ritual. Hours run from 11 AM to 9 PM Thursday through Tuesday, with Wednesday closed.
