Bad scene and rude waiters. We ordered 3 plates - 2 meats and one vegetarian.

They served us three in one dish without explaining things to us. My friend is vegetarian and she can't eat vegetables because it is connected with meats. We never believed that this situation could happen.

When we tell them that's not what we wanted, the waiters threaten to call the cops. Too bad experience and he didn't serve us water. Very small portions for the prices and bad atmosphere.

Dietary restrictions: They are very careless of customers and their dietary restrictions

Unassuming spot that is one of the best in the neighbourhood, serving flavourful, authentic, fresh food that’s made with love and worth the wait. Lamb, ground beef, whitefish and lentil dishes were all highlights, served on a large platter with plenty of warm injera. The owners are so kind. And it’s

Excellent quality of cuisine, really not pretentious. The bring-your-own-wine element is very popular.

Very good!

Interesting experience. The food is good but the price is absurd for what was served. Everyone's orders are all served together on a big plate, which makes for an authentic experience but with 5 on a plate there isn't much to eat. Despite this, the price per person is over $30 with taxes, without drinks. The restaurant is nothing special, decor and ambiance hardly exists, but the food is tasty. To try once but to return I don't know...

Food is authentic but service and quality is below average. We went for dinner and my boyfriend ordered a chicken dish and received only 1 Drumstick, no gravy with it and very small amount of dry vegetarian dish to go with for price of $13+. Also, part of our food was really cold and some barely warm. My dish was good in terms of quantity but same issue, it was just slightly warm and became cold in 2 mins. I love trying food from different countries in Africa because I am also from there but I was really disappointed here for the second time. I wouldn’t recommend this place.I would highly recommend Restaurant Nakfa!
