    I love Ethiopian food, and the food at Liyu is as good or better than any I've ever eaten. The injera (flat Ethiopian bread) was delicious and gluten free, the beef was really tasty, I loved the chicken, and I tried some of my friend's beef tartar (raw) which was also so good! They have vegetarian and vegan dishes too, so it's a great option if you are a mixed group of meat-eaters and veggies and want to cater to everyone's dietary needs! The Ethiopian owners (a couple who also cook and serve the food) are so friendly and helpful, and speak great English and German. If you're in Zurich and are looking for a delicious meal, good value for money, and excellent service (and also a nice atmosphere), I highly recommend eating out at Liyu!

    I am delighted to have dined at this restaurant. The staff was exceptionally friendly, and I had the opportunity to savor their main dish "Liyu Teller" (60 CHF for two, 30 CHF/each), featuring a variety of gluten-free offerings from their kitchen (I'm celiac). Moreover, they paid careful attention to ensure it wasn't too spicy, as I had requested. In keeping with tradition, the meal is enjoyed by hand.

    We went there spontaneously for a date. Great ambiance with candles and wine. Service was excellent. And food was very good. We took the two person teller with promotion. And ended up spending 30 chf per person.

    We had a wonderful evening at Liyu‘s. It was my first experience with Ethiopian food and I could’ve not chosen a better restaurant for it! The waitress was welcoming and kind and I really recommend having dinner here!

    Irresponsible and irrespecutful business. Ordered some food on ‘too good to go’, but once we went to pick it up, we were told there was nothing because they were closed and they forgot about the ‘too good to go’. On top of that, we were still charged for a food we never received.
