Abyssinian - Reserva de mesa

**Atmosphere: 7/10** The girls were heading to a show at the Theby Theatre starting at 7 PM, so we needed an early meal. Surprisingly, the restaurant was almost empty, but the warmth of the place was welcoming and comforting. Eating Ethiopian food with your hands fosters a genuine sense of communal dining. Don't hesitate to ask about the local dining customs; they take great pride in their culture. (By the way, the show was rather forgettable.) **Wine List: 3/10** Oh dear! It's best to bring your own (BYO) unless you’re a fan of authentic African beer. They do have some interesting African wines that I was eager to try (having spent about 40 years in the fine wine and food industries),...

Brighton Beau and I braved another cold, wet, windy Adelaide night to try this Ethiopian restaurant located on Henley Beach Road, just a stone 's throw out of the city centre. Used a voucher, and there was only 1 of each of the meat and vegetarian dishes which were not permitted.  So of the rest, there was plenty of choice.  The food was served in two trays, each with 3 compartments.  One tray contained the meat dishes, the other the vegetarian.  Our choices were delicious, spicy and aromatic, and we ate with the traditional injera, a style of 'bread ', tearing off bite size pieces and scooping it into the food.   A bowl of rice was also included.   The service was very good, quantities gene...

Its different!. Strange host who was attentive one minute and awol the next. lol.

Its like a cross between a pancake and a crumpet and has a lemony tang to it.We finished with very strong coffee served in a fantastic little pot. A good experience, im not sure I would go again, I think its a been there done that kind of place but having said that I have purchased a voucher to send my parents there as a surprise so they can see wha...

Enjoyed my dinner. Ordered at little extra just to try more dishes and as we are big eaters we normally need that extra but the food is super filling so we did not finish our meals. As other reviewers have noted the service is a little hit and miss. The main chap is good but some of his staff are not. This being said the complete staff appears true to the restaurants ethnic heritage. Highlight was the coffee and it's presentation. This place is not for everyone but for me it will be a place to return. Reserva una mesa ahora

The staff were welcoming upon arrival and continued to be friendly throughout our meal. The food was beautifully presented in a traditional style, bursting with delightful flavors and quite filling. We will definitely be back!

The food was delicious and offered a unique experience for the palate. However, we waited almost 20 minutes before the waitress came to take our order, even for drinks. Overall, it was good value for the money.
