Ethiopian Diamond Restaurant & Bar — among the best ethiopian in Edgewater. Intimate atmosphere suited for two. The food tastes like it should, with no compromises. Good for vegetarians. Toya Poplar: "The customer service was phenomenal and the beet salad was incredible"

“Then we had the meat sampler plate, which came with 3 meats and 3 vegetarian offerings in a platter of the injera bread, and a platter of four more rolled injera”

Some noted
We were greeted warmly from afar by the owner at Ethiopian Diamond, and the space was nice, though a bit too large for the number of guests.
Tibs sampler was disappointing. The tibs were unevenly salted and didn't have many flavors.

Amazing vegetarian platter that even my omnivore friends will devour. Service is pretty nice too. The food is amazingly seasoned as well, so tasty and such a good value for your money.

Went for lunch with coworkers, we ordered our food to go, but it smelled so good we just had to try a bite before leaving—and ended up eating it all right there! I ordered the veggie sampler, every dish was incredibly flavorful and fresh, with perfectly soft, tangy injera and a delicious mix of lentils, greens, and stews. The staff were so kind and welcoming, and the food was absolutely irresistible.

“This place and the food is absolutely delicious.”
This place and the food is absolutely delicious! It is a spot I come to every time I visit Chicago. I recommend coming here with a group and getting the sampler platter! It is a good representation of a little bit of everything! It is super filling and just soo good. They have plenty of vegetarian options as well. I think my favorite is the shiro, which is like a delicous chickpea paste. I love this place!

You can tell it’s family-owned by the warmth and care they put into everything. The food was incredible—rich flavors, generous portions, and beautifully presented. A must-visit if you’re in Chicago and want authentic Ethiopian cuisine. Highly recommend!

“I am back from traveling and Chicago is home.”
I am back from traveling and Chicago is home. What is my first craving? The vegetarian sampler at Etiopian Diamond! I have been coming here for at least 5 years. The lentils are so delicious. The cabbage is my favorite. I always leave completely satisfied and joyfully full!

“Ethiopian Diamond is 🔥.”
Ethiopian Diamond is 🔥. Pulled up with friends and split the meat & veggie combo platter. Flavor bomb. Portions were generous, everything was mad fresh. Spent about $30 with a drink. Vibe was cozy, live music was a nice touch. Perfect spot if you're tryna switch it up from your usual. Definitely hittin' it again soon.
