Dejen Gursha | Authentic Ethiopian Food Truck in Boston, MA

Our Story

Born from Tradition,
Driven by Passion

✦

Dejen Gursha was born out of a deep love for Ethiopian culture and a desire to share the warmth of communal dining with Boston's vibrant communities. "Gursha" — the Ethiopian tradition of feeding a loved one by hand — is the heart of everything we do.

From the smoky depth of our berbere spice blend to the pillowy tang of our house-fermented injera, every bite is crafted to transport you to the highlands of Ethiopia, right here in the streets of Boston.

Dishes That Keep Boston Coming Back

✦

Slow-cooked, boldly spiced, and served the traditional way — on a cloud of injera.

⭐ Best Seller

Doro Wat

Ethiopia's national dish — bone-in chicken slow-simmered in rich berbere sauce with a hard-boiled egg. Intensely aromatic and deeply satisfying.

Tibs

Sautéed lamb or beef with jalapeños, onions, tomatoes, and rosemary in a cast-iron skillet. Tender, fragrant, and irresistibly savory.

Kitfo

Ethiopian-style beef tartare blended with mitmita spice and niter kibbeh (spiced clarified butter). A revered delicacy, served raw or lightly cooked.

🌿 Vegan

Veggie Combo

A festive spread of shiro, misir alicha, gomen, and tikil gomen — all on injera. Vibrant, wholesome, and 100% plant-based.

"Hands down the best Ethiopian food I've had outside of Addis Ababa. The Doro Wat is incredible — rich, complex, and served with the most perfect injera. Dejen Gursha has become a weekly tradition for our whole team."

"We hired Dejen Gursha for our company retreat and it was an absolute hit! Everyone was talking about the food for weeks. The catering setup was professional, generous, and beautifully presented. 10/10 would book again."

"As an Ethiopian Bostonian, I was skeptical — but I am genuinely impressed. The kitfo tasted like my grandmother's recipe. Authentic spices, perfect fermentation on the injera. This truck brings real Ethiopian soul to the streets."

"The veggie combo platter is a game changer. Six different preparations, all exploding with flavor. I'm not even a huge fan of Ethiopian food but Dejen Gursha has completely converted me. The prices are amazing too!"

"Booked the truck for my daughter's graduation party — over 60 guests, all raving about the food. The team was warm, efficient, and the Ethiopian coffee ceremony at the end was a magical touch. Simply wonderful."
