    Lovely experience dining here. It's a nice restaurant and the people are also very warm and welcoming. We ordered the vegetarian platter for 3 people and it was really delicious and flavourful. We tried the Ethiopian beer and it was also good. The prices are also very decent. A shining 5 star to this restaurant.

    I wasn't really surprised by the plate for two, pretty simple dishes. But I really liked the bread pudding dessert. Very polite staff, interesting food experience.

    Food is great. We ordered the mango beer, vegetarian dish for 2, and twice the national dish. We really enjoyed the food. 1 star minus for the slow service.

    On our way home from vacation we found this restaurant. Normally the kitchen was already closed but when the very sweet owner heard we drove for 9h and still had a 7h drive ahead he offered to prepare us something. We really enjoyed the good food and coffee and will come back for sure when we are in Nurnberg again.

    Definitely one of the best Ethiopian restaurants I have been to in Europe. After actually living in Ethiopia, I can say that the food tastes very authentic. Friendly/attentive owner and staff. The restaurant is also very clean and welcoming, which is always a big plus in my books. This place is definitely a must for those that enjoy this kind of food or just want to experience something new.

    First time eating Ethiopian cuisine and not disappointed! Fresh and delicious, the vegetarian plate is everything you want in a meal and more! The dips are so well seasoned and you can tell the food is made with love. I recommend the honey wine - so good and comforting at the same time! I will definitely be coming back! Plus very friendly owner, thank you! :)

    I recently had the pleasure of dining at this Ethiopian restaurant with a group of 12 friends, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. First and foremost, the food was an absolute delight. Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and authenticity. From the injera bread to the various stews and curries, each bite was a delightful journey through Ethiopian cuisine. The blend of spices and the meticulous preparation truly showcased the chef's expertise in creating traditional dishes that left us craving for more. But it wasn't just the food that made our evening exceptional. The staff at the restaurant were incredibly friendly and attentive. They warmly welcomed our large group and ensured that all of our needs were met throughout the meal. Their knowledge of the menu and their willingness to accommodate dietary preferences made the experience even more enjoyable. The ambiance of the restaurant was another highlight. The traditional Ethiopian decor, combined with the soft lighting and comfortable seating, created a cozy and inviting atmosphere that was perfect for our gathering. It felt like a true escape to Ethiopia, right in the heart of [Location]. In summary, our visit to this Ethiopian restaurant was a remarkable culinary journey that left us thoroughly impressed. The delectable dishes, friendly staff, and charming ambiance all contributed to an evening that we won't soon forget. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking to explore the rich flavors of Ethiopian cuisine. It's a 5-star experience all around! Kudos to the entire team for delivering an exceptional dining experience. We'll definitely be returning for more delicious adventures at your restaurant. Bon appétit

    Great dining experience! The Lucy Speziel Mixteller for two was more than filling enough for me and my partner to share. The selection of dishes in the mix was a great variety (including different lentils, salad, and meats). We were happily stuffed by the end. The host was very friendly and the food came out faster than I expected. They have a super tasty alcohol free Hefeweizen beer too. Also a lovely atmosphere and vibrant art/decor inside.

    Wonderful place full of charm with the owner making you feel like you are at a friend's house. The food is very tasty and the coffee is roasted there and served in an ethiopian traditional manor. You need to eat here if you are visiting Nurnberg.
