This was my second time eating Ethiopian food, so I definitely can't tell whether things are authentic. But what I can attest to is how pleased my taste buds were!
My boyfriend and I got the TA2, which is a large platter of pre-fixed 6 items, comprising of few different kinds of meat and veggies. We got the platter "for one" and thank goodness we did- the two of us struggled to finish it  (Be aware, the food is much more filling than it looks).  The goat was cooked well, and the beef was so tender and rich.  I loved the spices and unique flavors in each of the items.
The only negative thing I could think of was that the extra plates of injera were served at room temperature. Â (At the place I first tried Ethiopian cuisine, they came out warm). Â But it didn't ruin my experience since the food was so delicious anyways.
Our waitress handled our large party like a champ and was willing to do separate checks. I know some people are a bit wary of eating only with your hands, so rest assured, they had hand sanitizers at every table! Â The restaurant has a cozy ambiance, and with the Ethiopian decor and furnishings, you forget that you're in Indy. Â It's a charming place, and I look forward to returning!
I got a Yelp account for this restaurant. Both Ethiopian restaurants in Indy are surprisingly top-notch and rival ones I have been to in larger cities. However, the flavor at Abyssinia makes it stand out as the best in the city. Besides perfect spice combinations, you can expect a leisurely atmosphere and friendly, helpful service (consistent flow of injera).
