Della Ethiopian Restaurant is a welcoming haven for flavorful vegan and meat dishes, with a lively atmosphere, friendly service, and a fantastic buffet on select days.
"Dilla, a Cedar Riverside mainstay on the west bank of the University of Minnesota campus, is popular among students for its late hours and delectable, traditional takes on Ethiopian fare. Though the restaurant’s weekend lunch buffets are no longer, the fragrant, golden-fried tilapia filets; buttery beef tibs; and combo platters (no need to choose between doro wat, sega wat, alicha wat, and yebeg wat — get them all) remain. Owner Beko Tufa is soon expanding to a new location, Dilla Sports Bar and Restaurant, in St. Paul." - Justine Jones, Ali Elabbady
"Also a West Bank Ethiopian gem, the options at the colorful Dilla’s are almost endless. The best part is that there are plenty of choices for vegetarian and vegan diners. So, there’s something flavorful and spicy for everyone." - Cinnamon Janzer
"Diners from across the Twin Cities flock to Dilla’s on Thursdays and Sundays for their lunch buffet: endless rolls of injera, massive platters of seasoned rice, and a rotating selection of stews, curries, and marinated grilled meats." - Julie Zhou
"With a 2:00 am closing time, Dilla’s Ethiopian Restaurant is the place to satisfy a late-night injera craving." - Stacy Brooks
