Went on a whim and the food was delicious, never had Ethiopian before. My spice tolerance is pretty low and it was definitely a fair bit out of my comfort zone but was a good level and I managed. Super flavourful! We got the combination of the day for two, a lovely variety of meat and vegetarian. Server was friendly and the interior decoration was great. Thanks!

Came here for my son’s birthday. We were first customers. The menu ain’t extensive. Just an A4 page. We took the combinations and some individual dishes. First time here and first time taking African- Ethiopian
The food was good. Very filling and delicious.

First above all, food is amazing! (We ordered Goat and Aletcha with recommended beer) The service is great too. Especially, we were served by a man, he regularly checks customers and kindly recommends food or drinks if you need help. It was first time to try Ethiopia cuisine so asked how to eat. He smiled and showed us how to eat 🤣 His smile is so lovely!
Highly recommend!

We got the combination for 2 people, 57$, great price for the quantity, and (seems) authentic taste, for someone who never tried Ethiopian food. This is a must try, everything was super tasty especially the fish and the chicken, reminds a bit of Indian curry!

we ordered the combination platter for 2, and I was apprehensive about the lamb dish as typically don't take lamb due to the gamey smell, but their lamb was INCREDIBLE. everything was delicious, but it was a pretty long wait - we had to wait about 40 min from ordering to receiving our food but we didn't say anything as we sympathised with how there was only the one guy serving the entire place on a packed Friday!

It's our first time trying Ethiopian food and OMG the flavours just blew our tastebuds.

We had the combination of the day so that we could try as many different items in the menu. You get 3 meat items and 3 vegetarian items. We had fish, goat and chicken for the mean items. I love the fish and chicken most. I don't normally eat goat but I tried and I didn't mind it.

Overall it was an amazing experience. The portions may look small but there was definitely more than enough to eat. Would highly recommend the combination of the day if it's your first time trying this cuisine.

I wish I could give more stars, came here with my boyfriend to try out, and it was the best food I had in a restaurant in a long time!

We had the combination of the day, we cleaned the plate, literally, the chicken and the beef, so tender and delicious!! The lentils, the beans, everything, it was so good I cannot describe, I can just say Glorious! Even the gin and tonic was really good. (We didn't ask the name of the waiter on Sunday 11th, but he was so nice and had patience, and we appreciate that!)

We are planning on going more often as it became one of our favourite places. Highly recommended!

Curries were all so flavourful! We shared a combination between two people and it was very filling. Our top three were the fish, chicken and flava beans. If you had to pick just one dish I would highly recommend the fish one - the seasoning was perfect paired with the injera and the fish was so soft to eat!

Food was magical and filling with fantastic flavours. We ordered the combination of the day for 1 person and the lamb dish.

Have been eating here for 10 years. It’s only marvellous. I rate the platter with bread.

My husband and I visited Little Africa after accidentally discovering it on Maps. We saw that it had a high rating and thought we'd do two things – experience great food while trying a new cuisine for the first time. Needless to say, the food was a revelation.

We had the Vegetarian Combination for Two (which serves a bit of all the veg dishes, not just a few choice ones), and we loved it. With its just-right portions and mind-blowing taste, it really took us on a journey. We'll definitely go back for more!

Food was amazing. Couple of the dishes were quite spicy but very tasty. Very flavoursome. Traditionally you eat with your hands which gets messy but they do supply cutlery. Only had a couple of staff so service could be a little slow but wasn't too bad and food still come out quite quickly. Venue is on the smaller side so preferably book beforehand but amazingly decorated.

A tasty meal in a cosy setting with great service and a mellow vibe. Very good value for money and interesting new flavours. Make sure you try the goat!

Been to this place lately. Nice ambience after they shifted now to new location @223 Victoria St. Kept quite clean & the presentation of food and choices of curries in it amazed me. If you are a curry person you might fall in love with this one. We ordered ourselves a 2 person combo of each Vegetarian platter and Non-vegetarian platter and both of them were quite filling for 4 of us. Great place..might hang around again sometime here for some Ethiopian cuisine.

Very friendly staff. Awesome food. Ordered dorho zighini chicken was well cooked and delicious flavours. Ethopian coffee was bit bitter but some unique taste. The ambience makes you feel their culture as there are some antiques on the walls. Felt heart warming. The toilets are clean and some ancient painting in there too which felt nice. The staff was so nice as we ordered one extra dish and then we were full so cancelled it but the staff allowed us to cancel it. So nice gesture. The portion is satisfactory enough to make you full. Would definitely visit again and try other dishes.

Absolutely loved dining here. We ordered the vegetarian tasting plate for 2. Everything was delicious, generous portion sizes, and the service was phenomenal. Definitely recommend to all!
