Lucy Ethiopian Restaurant

Named after the Lucy fossil by owner Almaz Adhanom, the restaurant centers on Ethiopian culinary tradition and neighborhood warmth. Meals can start with freshly fried veggie sambusas encased in flaky pastry and filled with spiced peas, paving the way for simmered staples like doro wat. Staff readily explain the menu to diners, pouring dishes directly onto shared platters to anchor the communal spread.
