Our daughter and son-in-law regularly eat Ethiopian food (vegetarian) and invited us to join them at the restaurant they eat at. Unfortunately, it was closed and, instead, we went to the Abyssinian Restaurant on Henley Beach Rd. The friendly staff welcomed us into the restaurant which was filled with enticing aromas and a mix of Anglosaxon and, apparently, African patrons. A banquet (bain-marie style) was on offer for $25/head. There were 7 dishes available: 3 meat-based, 3 vegetarian, 1 boiled rice and 1 raw cabbage/salad dish. In addition a crepe-style bread was also served. Ample quantities were available and we were encouraged to eat as much as we liked. I enjoyed the two meat-based dish...
Went on Saturday night and had a so so experience. I dont want to be too harsh as it looks like a family restaurant and I hope they do well but I feel it could be so much better. My advise for what its worth, The lighting is too harsh and could be easily fixed. Dim the room down and give it a warmer feel. EXPLAIN THE FOOD !! We were clearly first timers and got no help with the menu or any explanations at all. We didn't even understand how the food is to be spooned into the bread to be eaten. Had to work it out ourselves. A smile goes a long way. Treat your customers like guests. We felt like a bit of an imposition. Over all the meal was reasonable and certainly it was good value for money....
Loved this experience of eating Ethiopian style with our fingers using the beautiful light “bread” to pick up the very tasty, not overly spiced food to eat. The owner was very friendly and informative about the food and his country. The food was delicious and we would definitely return for some more wonderful Ethiopian food. Highly recommend this place. Lots of atmosphere as well
I dined here last night with a group of friends, we had the vegan share plate and WOW! It was so delicious! I can’t wait to go back again! Added bonus there was live music playing while we ate and we were able to BYO wine. Highly recommended!
