Excellent Ethiopian - Edit
This is the best Ethiopian I've ever had. We got a big spread of all the vegan options for 4 of us to share and it was particularly delicious. Two types of injera were provided.

Great food & good portion - Edit
The restaurant is well decorated with Ethiopian culture, so is the dining and serving of food as well as the music. The staff are just friendly. Before serving they bring a aluminium jug of warm water to wash your hands before eating. After eating there are warm wet towels to wipe your hands.
Read moreFood is served the traditional way of a shared plate. We selected the combo and used a 2 for 1 entertainer deal. There is a huge savoury pancake made from fermented rice and teff flour with a choice of two curries which the waiter poured over the injera. We were served additional injera bread too.
We opted for the rice injera as it came complimentary with the curries. If you want the traditional teff injera you would pay additional. The food was eaten with the hands which is the traditional way very similar to Indian.
The menu clearly states all vegetarian meals are fully vegan. There are over 7 curries with over 5 side dishes.
The experience was lovely and a must to have. I always find restuarants give small portions, this was not at all an issue here as the portions are quite filling. A combo for two has stuffed us three!
I have eaten at a number of Ethiopian restaurants. This has been the best so far with a more cultural experience. I however would have prefered the platter option with 5 curries which is what I'm more familiar with, however is only offered on the lunch menu.
Pros: Alot of Vegan options , Friendly staff, Cultural experience, good portions
