Ethiopian food is a culinary adventure unlike any other — rich in tradition, flavor, and culture. At Cottage House Ethiopian Cuisine in Washington D.C., we invite you to embark on a flavorful journey that celebrates the essence of Ethiopia, one bite at a time.
Every Ethiopian meal begins with injera — a soft, spongy flatbread made from teff flour. At Cottage House, we prepare our injera fresh daily, maintaining its authentic tangy flavor and perfect texture. It’s more than just bread — it’s the heart of Ethiopian dining.
"Ethiopian food is not just a meal — it’s a celebration of culture, family, and togetherness. At Cottage House Ethiopian Cuisine, every dish, from soft injera to rich Doro Wot, is crafted with love, tradition, and the timeless flavors of Ethiopia shared with Washington D.C."
Signature Dishes You’ll Love
Our beloved Doro Wot — Ethiopia’s national dish — features tender chicken simmered for hours in a rich, spicy berbere sauce. For beef lovers, Kay Wot offers deep, peppery flavors, while Kitfo, finely minced seasoned beef, provides a melt-in-the-mouth experience.
A Taste of Tradition
Ethiopian food is meant to be shared. Every meal represents unity — family and friends gathered around a single plate, enjoying flavors and stories together.
