Editor’s picks from published local guides
  • Vegan

    Axum's vegetable and legume dishes make Ethiopian dining naturally accommodating for vegan guests. Lentils, split peas, greens, cabbage, and potatoes arrive with tangy injera, arranged for tearing, scooping, and sharing by hand. A communal platter in the Pennsylvania Street dining room turns the meatless range into a generous group experience rather than a collection of side dishes.

  • Ethiopian

    Axum is especially welcoming to plant-based diners, with kik alicha, atakilt wot, lentils, greens, and other vegetable dishes gathered over injera. Meat combinations add further depth for a mixed table. The Pennsylvania Street room offers a calm downtown setting where the communal format feels natural, generous, and easy to navigate.
