Our go to spot for Ethiopian. The service is great, the beer is ice cold and the food is absolutely delicious.
What's Good! tip - ring up and book the fried fish so you don't miss out.
What a lovely evening! After reading lots of positive reviews I was so eager to eat here. My expectations were exceeded. The restaurant has a great ambience - nice lighting and incense. The beer garden also looked really cute although I didn’t eat there. The service was incredibly warm, we felt welcomed the entire time. The food was so incredibly satisfying. Fresh and hot. The food is so flavoursome and the vegetables in the dishes were deliciously flavoured and fresh. We also tried the honey wine which had a gorgeous fermented taste. Will definitely be coming back!!! 💚
Had a different restaurant that I wanted to go to but it was closed, so I walked a bit further and saw this place.
Definitely no regrets. Never tried Ethiopian food before and the food was great!
The lamb was cooked so well and the flavour was amazing. Loved how it was crunchy and charred.
The bread was sour and I had to Google injera to find out what it was. I have tried lots of different types of bread/rotis, but this was the first time I've tried this.
I would definitely come back to try other things on the menu.

It felt like going to your relatives place and being served food made with heart and warmt rather just being a customer. Loved the service, the food, coffee was amazing and most of all the people!!
Nice little family owned restaurant in Footscray. Went there for dinner had the vegan option with Shiro. The meal was delicious and satiating. The owner's son who served was friendly and gave good suggestions. The owner himself was polite and friendly.
The coffee is a must try. It is a ritual in itself. Very unique way of serving coffee.
The food is really affordable. We paid 30$ for a meal for 2 without the coffee.
The chef's who cooked the meal did a great job. This is food that satisfies the soul. Definitely worth a visit
This place is a great gem.
The owner is such a lovely guy and you can feel the love in the food.
We came in and asked for the owner a platter of what he would recommend.
He put us together a platter of 6 dishes, injera and a bit of salad and it was AMAZING!
The split peas, lamb, beef and veggies were deep in flavour, a hint of spice and not oily at all. The injera was not overly sour from the fermentation and was more then enough for us to eat all the dishes served.
Be sure to check out the painting on the wall of the owner and his restaurant and ask the owner about it.
This is the best Ethiopian cuisine in the West, possibly the state! Mundi and his wife are absolute champs dishing out the most flavoursome plates. Amazing beer garden. Lively atmosphere. Vegan/ Vegetarian friendly :)
What a great atmosphere and delicious food! So happy to have found this great place in Footscray. Just the thing for a cold winter night. Yummy food - probably the best Ethiopian I’ve had in Melbs - and also a nice, cosy and chilled out vibe. Can I live here please?
