Harar Mesob, Crystal City, Virginia

S. 23rd Street  
Arlington (
Crystal City), VA 22202
(703) 553-5500

Great food, personable service, reasonable prices – this place is terrific.   We have been to Harar Mesob twice for dinner over the last year and each time it was crowded, but we never saw a long wait, as the service is very efficient.  We both agree that whether you’re a novice to Ethiopian (like Bill), or an old-hand (like Elena), this is definitely a gem.  There is parking in the back of the restaurant, though climbing over a step-down, sometimes littered, is not a treat, especially if you’re wearing heels.  They have a nice beer and wine selection, and can make any other alcoholic drink, if you tell them what goes into it.  They are accommodating of any requests, substitutions and doggie bags.  It’s not an expensive evening out.  This is ) definitely a place to which we will be returning (Bill agrees).-
