Why We Like It

Bring a crowd to Tigist Reda’s welcoming Uptown gem, and dig into her made-for-sharing specialties, including five kinds of sambusa (fried dumplings), assorted family-style messob plates, and platters offering veritable tours of the entire menu — and be sure to try the tej (Ethiopian honey wine), made in-house.

About Demera Ethiopian Restaurant

Demera opened its doors in November of 2007, and quickly rose in both popularity and prestige, winning awards and recognition from local and national publications alike. Over a decade later, Demera Ethiopian Restaurant has grown to become one of Chicago’s favorite Ethiopian restaurants and a staple of the Ethiopian-American community of Chicago. Situated within the vibrant and colorful neighborhood of Uptown, Demera serves Chicago residents and visitors daily, allowing guests to experience Ethiopian hospitality and a whole lot of flavor.

For many of the guests experiencing Demera Ethiopian Restaurant, for the first time or as repeat customers, what impresses and fascinates them the most is not only the exciting flavors, excellent service, and exotic traditions of Ethiopia but also the experience of communal “family-style” hand-eaten meals shared among family and friends.
