    It’s a small restaurant off Edna mall. Quite cozy, but not too spacious for a large crowd. Can accommodate few persons at a time. But they have tasty meals to serve. I enjoyed their avocado 🥑 ginger and honey 🍯 smoothie. I also enjoyed the chicken wrap and macchiato. There are two separate sections which customers can sit in, the outer section and the inner section. Little or parking space available.

    Delmela is a really cute restaurant/coffee shop. They have a great menu so I love trying different things.. and it’s all been pretty good. Their iced coffee is good, and so are the lattes.. I’d recommend the waffles. Any of them. All of them. They taste amazing. The service is good. Pics of brunch food below. Not pictured, but from their lunch menu I recommend the Cado bowl.. it’s an 11/10.

    Amazing food & drinks. Ordered both from the restaurant and from Deliver Addis and the quality was equally good. The rice bowls, the ziki wrap, ice latte and ice tea are must-tries. Good job!

    Delmela is hand down one of the best cafe/restaurant I’ve come across in Addis. The spot is very cozy and welcoming. Their staff were so friendly and helpful. The food is amazing, so many rich flavors. Their menu has plenty of options to cater to your taste. Overall Delmela is 10/10. I definitely recommend everyone to try it.

    Excellent food and drinks. Had ordered from them via Deliver Addis a few times and it was always good, but went in person for the first time today. Everything was excellent; this will become one of my new 'go-to' places in Addis.

    The ambiance is great. The food is fresh and well spiced. But it’s not well cooked. The flavors are not well mixed together.

    Delima means full stomach in the Siltte language. There was so much food that my stomach was full. I ordered the Cado vegi, it's a fusion food, it was new and tasted good. I recommend the Cado vegi.

    Delmelà is a relatively new cafe that provides their customers with full service. They have bright and helpful employees catering to your every will, unbelievably amazing food and sets in the most relaxed ambience. This tastefully decorated place can serve all your needs, if you are eating alone or taking the family out for brunch, Delmelà is the perfect spot! I recommend this exquisite place to all my family and friends!!!

    Excellent restaurant! We got the delmela sandwich (fried chicken and waffles), the cado rice bowl and the vegetarian curry. All tasted amazing. My favorites were the delmela sandwich and the vegetarian curry. We also got the mint/ginger, strawberry and pineapple fizz. It’s a great vegan/Tsom friendly restaurant packed with flavor and an amazing environment.

    The spicy tomato contained a trope of seafood bathed in a rich creamy sauce at a remarkably fair price.

    They’re relatively new so service could definitely use some improvements BUT the food is really good! Servings are also generous and very competitively priced! In the photo below is the Cado Bowl.

    I liked this restaurant, they serve well and they provide delicious 😋 food 🥗 🍲 🥘,. They serve 7/24 during week. But have space challenge.

  • 3/5 Selam 1 year ago on Google • 33 reviews
    I was soo excited to try this, but the food tasted like practice. With a few tweaks could be amazing. The chicken and waffles: presentation was great, waffle was nice, chicken breading was nice, chicken was very dry, curry sauce and syrup didn’t go with the chicken (maybe ask for it on the side?), fries were undercooked. Banana fosters waffles: waffle was good, whipped cream tasted strange, bananas were mush instead of caramelized, not enough caramel sauce nor flavor in the sauce. Friend had shakshuka and I quote their disappointment: “fried eggs on top of tomato paste”. They do excel in their drinks! The smoothies were delicious, the caramel macchiatos and lattes consistently well executed. Would come back for drinks.

  • 5/5 Ole Andreas L. 2 years ago on Google • 18 reviews
    Great place with a nice vibe👍 Can recommend the shakshuka, waffle with omelette and avocado toast in the breakfast menu. The curry bowl is great in the dinner menu.

  • 4/5 Benayas B. 2 years ago on Google
    Best and Beauty place to have a nice time.

  • 5/5 M.Shaema O. 3 years ago on Google
    The restaurant has a variety of choices from seafood, meat, chicken, and vegas. Different types of sauces. The service is great. The place is clean and food is tasty. On top of all of that, prices are affordable and much better than other restaurants who also don't carry the same variety of choices. One thing just the toilets are not commendable.

  • 4/5 Rahel T. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice, clean restaurant with great and helpful staff. They have good amount of choice for see food including shrimp with a relatively great price. We had the backed filet fish ( which honestly you should be careful as there is a bit if bone in the fish opposite to advertised) and the whole fish with rice which was pretty good. A great place for sea food in general. Oh and they have real Shell's on the tables that actually let you hear the ocean.

  • 5/5 Emad S. 4 years ago on Google
    Amazing restaurant, such a perfect staff, no doubt the best food service in Bole, Addis Ababa. Really can't get enough trying out their delicious menu not only the sea food, all kinds of chicken and beef being served are wonderful. Highly recommended. My favorite place to eat and spend some good time.

  • 5/5 Semaria 1 year ago on Google
    The place is smaller than I expected… but their food really authentic. It has a bit of south Asian flavors & spices in most of their dishes. The wrap is my all time favorite I would go for that every time.

  • 5/5 Abel T. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazingggggg! I never thought I’d be able to find this type of food in Addis. Their menu is diet complimentary and flavorful as well. I love it! Definitely recommend for every foodie out there!

  • 5/5 Ruhama 4 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    The space is cozier than anticipated, but their cuisine is genuinely authentic. Infused with South Asian flavors and spices, their dishes stand out. Personally, I'm hooked on their wraps. It's my goto every visit!

👍👍 Illy's desserts are some of the best in town, and the interior design is impeccable. My favorite order so far is the Illy Duetto, with its creamy layer & chocolate sprinkles on top. The people are fast & accommodating as well. But the items are on the pricier side, so come prepared.

👍👍 Nice place for hangouts and food. Lots of options for food and also beverages. The burgers though small in portion, tastes very good. The service isn't bad but could definitely be better in terms of speed. Cool spots for taking pic with ur friends and family. Worth a visit.
