They had shareable table size platters but we got the individual ones on their recommendation. The spicy chicken one isnt spicy but a nice saucy well cooked chicken side dolloped in heaps on your injera (the crepe that you eat everything with . The lentils are excellent. Also got a kohl potato veg mix. The family running/serving the place is super nice:

I had never had Eritrean food before and was excited to try a new cuisine. I had the lentils and chicken with millet couscous substituted for the flatbread. My daughter had the lamb and lentils and my husband had the beef with lentils. It was so good, we made a reservation for next weekend on the way out! Be sure to make a reservation as the restaurant is very busy.

I couldn't read the German Menu but the platter had the basic staples I remember from Ethiopia and Ethiopian Restaurants in San Francisco. Shiro Yellow Lentils, Doro Wat Chicken, Doro Tibs (lamb), Spinach, Hard Boiled Eggs, plus some salad and potato salad. The dishes were low on spice to appeal to what seems to be the local German preference but I would have preferred to really feel more spicy heat from the Bereberi Spices. The restaurant has nice ambiance and the service was friendly if also a bit slow since it was a busy Saturday night. The price was fair at €43 for 2 with the platter, extra Injeera, one round of drinks and soup. I will for sure go back again.

The three of us shared a meat dish for two, which contained no less than eight different items: beef, chicken, lentils, veggies and more, all to be eaten with flatbread similar to a crepe. All were delicious! The only minor negative is that the flatbread was under all the other food, so as the meal progressed the flatbread became soggy; I suggest you order the flatbread on the side.

The food was tasty but too heavy for my friend and me. We couldnt sleep at night cause of it. Also it was quiet expensive.

The environment was good as well as the waiter. The food came quickly.
