Why “Konjo”?

Konjo: Adj. BEAUTIFUL

In Amharic, “Konjo” means “beautiful.” For us, it represents beauty in community, in sharing meals, and in honoring a rich heritage. When you dine with us—whether at Edgewater or at Milk Market—you’re stepping into a space where beauty meets flavor.

An Experience full of Beauty 

Our Journey

Konjo began as a modest catering company before launching the food truck, with one simple goal: share Ethiopian flavors with our new community. By late 2019, that food truck evolved into Denver’s first fast-casual Ethiopian restaurant on the West side—now a beloved spot in Edgewater Public Market. Today, we’re proud to be expanding into Denver’s downtown Milk Market in June 2025. Through each milestone, we’ve held onto one core belief: great food nurtures community.

Roots in Tradition
Our recipes originate from our mothers’  kitchens passed down through generations. From the slow-cooked spices to the Injera baked fresh daily, each dish tells a story of home.

 

From Food Truck to Award-Winning Restaurant
In 2015, our food truck introduced Denver to Injera and robust spice blends. Community support quickly transformed that venture into a brick-and-mortar opening in November  2019 inside of Edgewater Public Market. Since then, Konjo has been honored as Best Ethiopian Restaurant by Westword readers from  2021 to 2025 (Westword, Westword), and recognized by 5280 Magazine as a Top of the Town local favorite (5280).

 

Building a Second Home
As a proud Black-owned business, our June 2025 expansion into Milk Market reflects our commitment to growth, representation, and serving more communities with authentic Ethiopian hospitality.
