Don't let the hokey exterior fool you, this place offers a comfortable, even classy setting in the heart of the Fillmore. Perhaps Meatless Mondays will draw you in, as all Ethiopian restaurants seem to have great vegetarian menus. This one costs more, but delivers the goods (they've even made the injera upscale), as does the cocktail list. Half the house cocktails are made with Ethiopian spiced bitters - and even the others are suitably named, such as the Abyssinian Storm (which is essentially a Dark and Stormy, but a really good one) - or you can order Tej, traditional honey wine. Note: This is not for the budget drinker. As for the piano lounge, expect a soloist early in the week, but midweek to weekend nights is when a trio completes the ambiance.
Event Review: South City Blues Band
The South City Blues Band is dedicated to the groove, providing you with a unique blend of swinging Jump Blues (there specialty), Jazz/Funk Blues, and "old-school" R&B. Whatever you want to call it, this music will get you up and moving. They played a variety of styles to keep it interesting, and their rhythm section keeps it in the pocket, and they never strayed far from the source of their musical inspiration — the blues! Between the cutting vocals, ripping guitar lines, wailing sax, and swinging rhythm, They don't let up. South City Blues is composed of four veteran Bay Area musicians who have shared the stage with some of the blues legends including Mitch Woods, Little Charlie and the Nightcats, Chris Cain, Kenny Blue Ray, and many others. they are scheduled to perform again December 23, 2011. www.southcityblues.com
