Restaurant Nakfa offers delicious Eritrean and Ethiopian food, with standout meat and vegetable dishes. The service is friendly and attentive, creating a warm and calm atmosphere for families or groups. The restaurant is simple yet authentic, serving up food prepared with time and care. Visitors have praised the food for being fresh, tasty, and similar to home-cooked meals, often mentioning the mixed vegetarian and meat for two as a favorite. The woman who works there was also really nice and friendly. You’re fully immersed in local customs. Everything is eaten with your hands—there are no forks or knives. But there’s an exceptional joy of life in the restaurant. The combo for one came with a generous mix of meat and vegan options: white tibs, key tibs, shiro, cabbage, greens, salad, and a spicy red key siga wot called zigni. Everything was delicious and well-prepared; full of flavor and cooked perfectly. The portion was just right for one person, and a nice cup of tea was enjoyed with the meal. The service was good, though there’s a bit of room for improvement. The space is quite small, and it wasn’t easy to find a seat. The price was a bit higher than what some are used to, but the quality made up for it. It is a recommended spot for those seeking a true Ethiopian dining experience.
