My wife and I visited Dinknesh during Christmas but the nice owner opened just for us as we had already made a reservation. Awesome flavours playing with the spices from Ethiopia. Very affordable and a gave us a really down to earth neighbourhood cafe feel. Will definitely comeback here when I'm in Melbourne.

This restaurant may look simple and unassuming but the flavours are just phenomenal. Highly recommend for a taste of Ethiopian cuisine and just good food!

My husband and I are regulars at Mulu's. We usually order the veg combo plate with salad to share between us. Mulu is a great home style cook with a bright and cheeky personality that keeps us coming back. There are vegan items clearly marked on the menu and the injera is always fresh. Rice is available too if you are gluten free.

I have been a regular at this restaurant for several years now. I absolutely adore the food here. It is full of flavors and authentic Ethiopian spices. Plus, the prices are very affordable.

If I could, I would have rated this restaurant 2.5 stars.
