Named after the year the Ethiopian government sent troops to aid South Korea during the Korean War, this collaboration between the owner of Goorsha Ethiopian restaurant and the Korean family that owned Kaffeinate coffee house is an homage to friendship and resilience. This modern cafe in Golden Belt is a perfect spot to enjoy a great cup of coffee, cocktails, sandwiches and bites that bring Ethiopian and Korean flavors into everyday American food, like mango-berbere and ginger-sesame wings.

The food was good but I would skip the dry rub wings next time and maybe just go with a sandwich. The fries were a bit off and over cooked too. But, overall good and a good option for food with a beer from high wire if you’re not in the mood for pizza. Plus, of was fun to try a pineapple ginger Jamaica sof drink :)

I stopped in not knowing what to expect, but I loved it! I ordered the chicken bulgogi sandwich, which was absolutely delicious. The bun was an appropriate size for the chicken patty which was much appreciated. My boyfriend ordered the mango berbere wings and they had a great flavor. Highly recommend this spot! You really can’t beat the location. One small recommendation I would make for the restaurant is to dim the overhead lights a bit as they were a little too bright for a dinner experience.

I had the bulgogi chicken sandwich and that was the best thing ever happened to me in a while. The right amount of sauce and just juice chicken! The way they made their fries was also great! The wings were very mediocre, however. The vibe was great so I was very surprised that the place was not busy at all on a Friday evening.

Great service and location!! The fries are absolutely incredible. They’re like a hybrid steak x curly fry with amazing seasoning. I’ve been here twice for the wings and I’ll definitely be returning. 10/10 recommend

Grabbed the chicken panini for dinner that slapped hard; comes with a good amount of fries that were actually fire. For the price it’s definitely the best food on that campus. Will be back to try out the rest of the menu. Folks were extremely friendly as well and got the food out quick.
