Wass is the best Ethiopian restaurant in Southern Ontario. My criteria? Taste, portion, price, and atmosphere. I was in Toronto at an Ethiopian restaurant that was rated one of the top restaurants in the city by a reputable magazine. I found that Wass was far superior in all categories! At Wass, you can count on a friendly conversation with the owners, and you are always assured of a quality meal for an amazing price. I recommend this place to everyone! Wass could possibly be one of the best things about Hamilton!

WASS is a great cozy restaurant in Hamilton that provides awesome food and great selection. I am not a Vegetarian but ordered the Vegetable platter which has a selection of food (lentils, beets, lettuce etc). It was served in a timely fashion with awesome service.
I got to meet and talk a bit with the owner who was very friendly and from Ethiopia!
Overall I would suggest this restaurant for someone who is looking to venture out and try something new or for someone who is looking for some good Ethiopian food (or coffee!!)
