Best Ethiopian Restaurant Daly City Near Me

4worldlovers:
እንብላ (pronounced – “e-ne-b-la”) is a courteous word that you would hear walking into a family home or restaurant while people are eating meals. It means “let us eat together” or “join us for this meal”. It is a profound way of inviting the person to join them to share a meal. As sharing is the center of the communal Ethiopian culture, the word reflects on similar aspect. Similar to expressions like “the more; the merrier” you would hear the word repeatedly being said to friends, family, or even strangers during meals. It is a heartfelt gesture, and whether there is enough food to accommodate is irrelevant-as meal of any size is meant to be shared.


We are thrilled to bring House of Tadu to the Mission Bay Area. Tadu at Mission Bay serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner, as well as freshly brewed coffee and local and Ethiopian beers and wines. Our spacious living room will be able to accommodate groups of any size with love.


Our illustrations will take you to the land of Ethiopia; artworks of different traditional practices, portraits of tribal clothing’s, and huge handmade traditional garments are displayed.


As we are opening a bigger Tadu, we still stay true to our original mission and values; inspired by our grandmother Tadelech Oda, from which the name Tadu originated. We hope to provide a warm and radiant hospitality in reminisce of her personality. With our new and diverse (vegetarian and non-vegetarian) menu, we bring the authentic flavors of Ethiopian cuisine made with great delicacy and passion.


So, as we are opening our doors to welcome the community for the second time, we hope to provide you with an amazing experience that will create a lasting impression of the Ethiopian culture.


It is with great humility and genuine gesture when we invite you to our House of Tadu and say እንብላ“e-ne-b-la”
