Always delicious!!!
The food was flavorful and excellent. Nice portions. I love flavorful and spicy foods, and Buraka has great options.
The food was magnificent as always!
Love Buraka and delivery was fast
I had the coconut shrimp as an appetizer. Way too much breading and really had no coconut flavor. My main dish was too spicy and the beef was overcooked and dry and flavorless and too many onions as filler. Very disappointed. Will not order from them again.
Such great flavors, the food always hits the spot!!
The food we received was okay. Qe
Enjoyed food we received. Missed the duck breast appetizer and extra lentils.
Love Buraka
Excellent as always. Best injera I've ever had
I received a total different meal than I?d order (chicken instead of beef). Worked with EatStreet to try to address, and though I was eventually refunded, it took several interactions and they made me call the restaurant because they insisted my meal was beef. In the end, it seems either the driver picked up the wrong meal or delivered to more than one home, giving me and another each others meals.
The dorowat is my favorite but all of the different wats are delicious.
So good and arrived in great condition!
Did not include one of the meals we ordered
Ordered the combo, half was good but the other half was just steamed chicken and potatoes, think they forgot the stew.
Lots of flavor and spice!
Always good. Dorowot is a fave.
My food never arrived
The food was perfectly spiced and showed up still warm, which was comforting on a chilly day! Can?t wait to try more dishes from Buraka!
Excellent as usual
The food was good, but my order was incomplete
The food was delicious as always!
Their food is generally good, but they struggle to get the order correct. Latest issue was them providing rice instead of the injira that had been selected, prior to that only one of two entrees was delivered.
One entree was missing as a whole, and the one that did get delivered was incorrect. Probably more of a reflection of EatStreet or the driver than the food itself.
Buraka food had its usual excellent flavor. The food arrived not just cooled down from delivery, which is understandable, but cold as if it were refrigerated.
Food tasted good and was warm enough but the portion sizes keep getting smaller and smaller. I understand prices need to increase but I don't want to pay $25 for tiny items that fit in one small to-go container. It was a rip off
Everything was delicious and delivered quickly and hot. My only disappointment was my own fault. I unintentionally order GF injera instead of the regular injera. I didn't like it but ate all the stew. Again, totally my fault! I'll be ordering again very soon.
Portions were very small. They only gave me one sauce instead of two.
We love your food. Would love to see the duck wontons return, if possible, in the future.
Excellent as usual. Thank you.
So good! Love that they offer a combo dinner where you can try two different entrees.
So delicious!
The food was great as always. Thank you Marcus
Awesome food! I am so glad to have Buraka in Madison.
It arrived lukewarm. Portion size was small for the price. However, it was delicious! I loved every bite.
Ordered injera, got lentils. hmm.
Excellent, flavorful, comforting food every time!
It was delicious! Had I known about Ethiopian restaurants and foods in Madison, I would?ve tried it sooner!
Food was good but order was wrong.
The food is amazing!
Misir Wot for the win!
The food was warm and delicious. The portion size isn't skimpy which is great.
We love Buraka and were thrilled to order from them! There are Dorawat with Injera is amazing!
Excellent for folks who like it spicy. But not good for folks who don't like hot food. The menu didn't say when a dish was spicy.
I've given this restaurant so many chances. My last 3-4 orders in a ROW were incorrect (items missing). The manager even sent me a gift card. I gave it some time and ordered again yesterday...and half the order was missing yet again. Good food but poor attention to detail of the staff ruins the experience.
I love that Buraka offers gf ingera, it?s so fantastic to sop up the flavorful dishes and sauces. I also appreciate that they offer a combo meal because there are so many delicious options to choose from. Highly recommend!
Always love Buraka.
I had requested a text or call when the food was delivered. I did not get either. Therefore the food was cold - not as warm as it might have been. I do not blame the restaurant but I do think EatStreet should respect a customer?s wishes - especially since they asked for them!
Buraka is always delish!
The ordering process was excellent, and we tracked the delivery progress on the app. But when it said our meal was delivered, it wasn?t here. I checked at our neighbors? doors but couldn?t find it. Where it was delivered remains a mystery. We?ve previously had successful deliveries on multiple occasions, but this is the second time in a row when we didn?t get what we ordered. Our money was rapidly returned.
