Ethiopian restaurant

Excellent Ethiopian food, and highly recommended! Another of Wellington's hidden gems, which shouldn't be missed. Combo is a great deal and place to start if you want to try a variety.

Highly recommend this place, it's a great little joint, mix of tables from cosy 2 seats to long table for a party. Nice vibe, relaxed and very welcoming. Got the vegan combo for 2 - variety of foods and traditional bread, which is gluten free. Also veg and meat options.Generous portions, super delicious and not too spicy. Was $36, really great price for such great food. Will absolutely be back, thanks so much

Totally disappointing... Didn't have most of the drinks on the menu. The waitress went out to New World to get juice. Meanwhile the sub waitress had no idea" about anything on the menu (by her own admission

Favourite Vegan food ever! After Covid I havent been able to find anywhere that comes close to the taste of MESOB So I have to try and learn myself! The cravings are real and I miss this food dearly

What a lovely little place located at the end of an arcade with parking at the back. Lovely staff serving up beautiful clean yummy food. My wife and daughter had dorowat (chicken), prawns in mild sauce and I had yetsom beyaynetu, a really lovely vegan dish, both were served with the lovely teff enjera. The enjera was so light and even better once the currys had seeped into them. I have wanted to visit Cafe Abyssinia for the last year and finally we did and feel all the better for it. Next time we will visit with friends and family.

Most delicious vegan treat. Get several curries and injera for $12.50! So tasty!

If you haven't tried the only Ethiopian restaurant in Auckland, get yourself here, now.It's so different to anything else I've had before, it's more than a meal, it's a cultural experience in itself.The staple food is injera/enjera, which is a sourdough flatbread with the texture of crumpets (holes on the top, smooth on the bottom). It's paired with wat, which is a stew. You pour the whole bowl of wat on top of the injera, tear off a piece of the injera with your hands, and scoop some of the wat into your mouth. It's such a fun experience and good bonding times with your friends.Injera is very sour when eaten by itself, but it matches perfectly with the rich wat.It's a normal shop at the back of a mall, decorated with some Ethiopian art on the walls. They have a traditional low table with stools you can sit around if you want the full experience but you can still use standard western tables and chairs.Definitely recommended.

Ridiculously good Ethiopian food. The injera is divine and I can not over recommend the meat and vegetarian specials.

Half-price vegan meals on Monday. Pretty good marketing scheme, as we went once on a Monday and now crave it almost every day. Amazing vegan food.

On Friday I came here with a few mates and it was incredible flavors and service. The atmosphere is similar to being in someone's home and enjoying their unique and exquisite artifacts of Eastern Africa. The Woman running the restaurant was so kind hearted and helpful. The food was delightful, only a couple options but its understandable for such a small place. I hope this restaurant grows into something more. Coffee also was sweet and strong, really good! Thanks for such a great night!
