Vegetarian platter

Ate here in March this year on a trip to Bergen. As others have already said, the vegetarian platter is fully vegan. If you have not had Ethiopian food before, the server will show you how to eat it, no cutlery needed! Very flavourful dish, we ordered more of the pancakes as wasn't quite enough for us. No vegan desserts available.

There appeared to be just one lady serving and preparing the food, so the pace was quite slow, but we just went with it.

One vegan dish with multiple flavors

The vegetarian platter is in fact vegan and mixes all sort of flavors (spicy, savory, sour). Well prepared and served dish by very nice people running the restaurant.

Pros: Original Ethiopian food in vegan version, Decent portion

Cons: Only 1 vegan position in whole menu

Flavorful Ethiopian food in Bergen!

Get ready to eat vegan with your fingers! Excellent Ethiopian restaurant in Bergen. Not all menu items are vegan but they have a nice vegetarian platter that is vegan.

Food is flavorful, healthy and not greasy. Spices were just right.

Also very friendly and helpful on how to eat Ethiopian!

Pros: Flavorful, Not greasy, Friendly staff

Cons: Leisurely pace on getting food, Also serve meat

Five stars for the vegan platter!

Wow, this place was fantastic. The vegan platter (labeled vegetarian but it's vegan!) was so flavorful and delicious. The two-person platter was perfect for my husband and me, but you could get away with one if you wanted to save some money/weren't super hungry. The owner/server was incredibly kind and friendly, and I still can't get over how good the food was😄All four in our group thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Come hungry and enjoy!!

Pros: Incredible flavors, excellent service, nice decor

Cons: A little expensive but so worth it!

Delicious food, great service and a warm, welcoming atmosphere

We were invited in from the rain a few minutes early by the sole server. He was very friendly and gave each table plenty of attention, even demonstrating how to eat the food with injera (stretchy pancakes) and fingers (which was fun). I had the vegetarian kirchat and thoroughly enjoyed it. I would definitely recommend this dish. It was one of the best meals I have ever had. The menu is so simple that half of the main courses are vegan.

Pros: The vegetarian main course options were vegan , Very good service , Allergens Very clearly labelled

Cons: Expensive by UK standards, but not for Norway, Serves meat , None of the deserts were vegan

Charming and tasty

I had a relaxed evening meal here. The food was delicious. The service was friendly and efficient. The restaurant also has African themed decor which I felt added a bit of charm.
