Awash restaurant offers a clean and neat atmosphere with friendly service and really good food. The mixed veggie sampling and vego African curry served on injera bread are highlights, with the prices being surprisingly affordable. Guests can expect attentive and personal service from the lovely hostess, who also doubles as the cook. The food is described as basic but delicious, served generously on large plates with a side salad. The veggie combo is praised for its flavorful selections. Overall, the dining experience at Awash is highly recommended, offering a variety of tasty dishes at reasonable prices.

Delightfully simple and delightfully tasty. Take the best vego African curry, serve it up on a very generous piece of injera bread (the spongy one) and marvel at just how tasty it is. Then double check the bill to see just how cheap it is...More

My daughter and I had lunch recently at Awash.We had read good reviews so were a little surprised to find the restaurant empty on arrival just after midday, but it only made the experience better as we received very attentive and personal service from the lovely and friendly hostess who was also the cook.The food was basic but simply delicious, my daughter had a vegetarian selection and I had lamb, it was all served on a very large plate atop some Injera and accompanied by a simple and crispy fresh side salad in a light, tasty dressing.The food here is very good.
