“GURSHA” is an Amharic word meaning to feed or provide a morsel of food to
another person and it is considered to show strength of friendship, love, respect and unity to scoop up a portion of food and place it directly into the mouth of someone at the table.
Gursha is family owned and it has been in business as dine in restaurant and
switched to catering any event serving Ethiopian food for the last 10 years at the same location. Presently it added on take away or pick up services. Food lovers will enjoy the unique taste of Ethiopian dishes. Try it.

This was the first Ethiopian restaurant I have ever been to. The food was amazingly fresh and flavorful. I especially loved the veggie platter of greens, cabbage, beets, and assorted… read more lentils. The meats were all delicious and tender as well. The service was wonderful and everyone was very friendly. I would highly recommend this place for anyone who already loves Ethiopian food or to someone who has never tried it. I will definitely be back!
2/24/2017My husband and I found this place on our first trip to Atlanta … it was only a 4 day trip but we went here once for lunch and once… read more for dinner. It was delicious! We always try to find Ethiopian restaurants when we travel and I have to say this was one of THE best! We had the vegetarian combo both times with extra sides of the Yekik Watt and Shiro Watt. I can’t say how wonderful everything was. Looking forward to going back on my next trip to Atlanta!
This is the first time I ever had beets in an Ethiopian restaurant. A very nice and delicious surprise … I added some awaze to mine and they were outstanding!
10/09/2016I didn’t know that there is an Ethiopian restaurant in this area, but I’m glad I found it. I had the vegetarian platter which has beet salad, collard greens, lentils,… read more cabbage and potatoes, & a couple of other things I probably forgot. It is all really good food and I got a pretty good portion size. The young lady, at the register, was really nice. She even offered to bring it out to my car when it was ready. The order was quick. Also, the restaurant is nice and clean. I will be returning.

Damm that was some good food! The lamb and chicken tips were really good – the spicy option in my opinion was not that hot – just a little… read more kick with more flavor. Even the veggie sample platter tasted great (and I am not big on meatless food). Also, you have to try the Ethiopian tea. The service was great as well – very attentive and responsive to our request.
This is a small family run business that is a pleasant surprise given the location it’s in. Don’t let the random crack head roaming around the parking lot scare you (it’s next door to a liquor store) because there is a diverse mix of people who come here because the food is that good.
1/28/2017There’s not always variety in Smyrna restaurants, so Gursha is a great option. The family that runs it is great and the food is fantastic. The physical space may not… read more be appealing to some, but the only atmosphere you should be considering is the one surrounding your taste buds. Get the platter and try everything the first time and you’ll discover the red lentils will become a favorite if you enjoy spicy foods.

I seriously come here every week for my Ethiopian fix! Idk if I love the food or the people that work there more. It’s a family business that’s very friendly… read more and intimate. I always order the veggie platter and a lentil Sambusa every now and then. Again. The food is legit! I cannot stay away
