Delicious vegan sampler - Edit
I’ve ordered the sampler many times and it never disappoints! The restaurant itself is quite small but takeaway orders are quite quick if there’s no space

Amazing food! - Edit
I feel in love with this place after first mouthful. Wow! SO good! It’s all theese amazing fluffy pancakes and you eat with your fingers, dipping and scooping different kind off stew with theese pancakes. The taste is out off this world!
Read moreWe tryed the Vegan Sampler were you get 5 different stews. All so tasty! We even got extra when we cleared the plate. It’s very filling and not expencive. Can’t wait to go there again! I would give it 5 stars, but you can’t when the place isn’t fully vegan - but the food is definently 5 stars!
Pros: Lots of vegan options, So delicious! And friendly service. , Not expencive
Cons: Small place - not many tables

Amazing and authentic - Edit
I have been thrice and ordered the vegan sampler for 2 all three times. It consists of injera with 4 different kinds of stew with very different flavours. The food is generally delicious (and spicy!). It is also extremely cheap compared to what you get (189 DKK for food for 2 people). Beverages, including beer and wine, are cheap as well.
Read more(The last time I was there, we were three people. We had plenty of food and beer and ended up paying approximately 400 DKK in total).
The restaurant is casual, small and very authentic. You eat with your hands, and the place is decorated with Ethiopian/Eritrean items.
I would recommend this place to everyone who would like to try some delicious vegan Ethiopian/Eritrean food in a cozy setting.
NOTE: they now accept credit card!

Cheap and good food - Edit
Delicious food (but also spicy). Big portion and It's cheap. The window sign says "vegan" but they also have beef, lamb and chicken on the menu. Still a lot of vegan options, though. I had the vegan sampler for one.

Tasty and filling - Edit
Got the vegan sampler consisting of sourdough pancake and I think 5 different stews, with lentils, vegetables and different levels of ‘spiciness’. All were extremely tasty.
Read moreIt wasn’t possible to get a receipt from the machine, so I had them write one in hand, since I needed it.
I am definitely open to coming here again!
Pros: Filling, Super tasty
Cons: Plastic tray for takeaway

Tasty sampler menu - Edit
Really tasty vegan sampler menu, also available for one. Got out drinks more than half way through dinner. Staff were weird about change, had to wait a long time by the desk and did not get the right about back. Restaurant is not fully vegan any more, serves mostly meat.
Read morePros: Great sampler menu , Friendly staff
Cons: Weird about change money , Not fully vegan, No option to wash your hands before and after

Authentic and Tasty! - Edit
The vibe here is super authentic and down to earth, I found it much more affordable and less buzzy than the African eateries in the trendier parts of Nørrebro. It's small, but not too busy, so it's easy to find seating. Despite the HappyCow listing, they don't accept credit cards and they don't have outdoor seating! The food is great and I got extra pancakes for free after requesting it. The Ethiopian tea is also a must-try too. A great place for vegans and foodies willing to go off the beaten path!

A must visit - Edit
Injera is a small, but really delicious place, that offers some new, vegan food in Copenhagen. As one of a very few Ethiopian restaurants, and even vegan, they offers a new taste experience with their injeras and other ethiopian dishes.
Read moreAnd their injeras are really delicious! But if you aren't into spicy food, be aware, since their injera topping are quite hot, and are even served with jalapeños. But it's not too hot IMO.
If you want to try some new vegan food, and something different from bowls and burgers, Injera is a must visit.

Nice owner, the injera bread, the rest total disappointment - Edit
I was so excited to have found this vegan Ethiopian restaurant.
Read moreWas looking forward to go there.
The place is simple unpretentious, very small. Perfectly OK as far as I am concerned. The owner is nice.
We (my wife and I) ordered a vegan sampler.
I also wanted to buy some injera bread, but unfortunately they could not sell any, unless we pre-ordered over the phone.
The injera was good, the 4 or so things that they put on it were terribly oily.
Oil + potatoes.
Oil + some spinach.
Oil + some mushroom with okra.
What a shame.
This is easily the worst Ethiopian food I have ever had anywhere in the world.
I feel bad for the owner, to write such a review. But at the same time I appreciate honest feedback from other users.

Pros: Pure vegan, Nice owner, Good injera bread
Cons: Everything is oily, Could not eat more than 1/4 of the dish, Had heartburn afterwords for a couple of hours

A completely unique dining experience. It is not like other restaurants in Copenhagen, which makes the place worth a visit. The food is lovely and the service is warm and welcome. Got tea after the meal, which was delicious.

Flavourful - Edit
This vegan restaurant serves delicious dishes full of flavour. We had the sampler with a variety of dishes on a large pancake. Everyone enjoyed the food and the authentic experience of eating without cutlery.
Read moreThe place is rather small and fits well into the atmosphere of Nordvest.
When we were there, there was only one woman to take care of everything. She made the food, served the food, took orders and everything else. She was very nice but did not have time or seemed interested in giving a high level of service. She never asked if we wanted drinks so we just took them in the fridge which seemed to be the norm. And we couldn't get a receipt which seemed very weird. But very authentic.
Pros: Good flavour , Cheap
Cons: Low level of service
