Abyssinia Afrikaans Eetcafe Amsterdam

This is a very good Abyssinian restaurant at the Ceintuurbaan. You can have here a lot of traditional Abyssinian food. I had some very delcious vegeterian food and it was tasting wonderful. the service is very kind and helpful. So it was a great joy for me. At all i will come again.

This is so far my favorite of the Ethiopian restaurants in the area (I have tried all but 1 in the vicinity). The portions are generous and the flavors and spice level are on point. The ambiance is comfortable and homey. I like that they had some red wines from Ethiopia available to go with the food, I hadn't tried it before. Overall recommended.

This is a great restaurant. The decor is super well done and it feels really cozy. We had the meat and vegetable spread and they were excellent. A bit spicy but not too hot and full of flavor. The bread is also naturally gluten free. For desert we had the ice cream that comes with honey and crushed nuts so delicious! I would highly recommend.

The food was so delicious and better quality than most things you can find in Amsterdam! If you’re looking for a unique taste and surroundings near Centraal, this is the place to go! It was pretty quiet when we went on New Years Day, so I’m not sure if a reservation is necessary. The service was great and friendly, and the decor was really fun! Make sure you wash your hands properly before eating because you’ll use your hands to eat as no cutlery is provided. The only downside was the Ethiopian wine we tried, that was really not good.

Beautiful Ethiopian atmosphere, Food was quite good, it’s more about the experience i would say. Great to share with friends !
