Suggestions for African Restaurant near Amsterdam

Alper Ç. • March 6, 2010Easy to miss tiny and very cosy place. Great African specialty beers (get the banana beer!) and good diverse food options.

@ambarsurastri • September 1, 2011Hey! If you are lucky they made something special with an old family recipe: the slow cooked lamb with couscous!

Lauren M. • January 23, 2013Well-priced deliciousness. You WILL eat with your hands, enjoy it :)

Kevin G. • May 20, 2017Eclectic little African restaurant. The owners are incredibly friendly. If you like spicy dishes - ask them if they can bring you some sauce to make it spicy. It's REAL good

Marinus S. • January 9, 2016Mixed Grill de Lux is good! Real boerewors!!!

Camy Z. • September 3, 2017It was quite late (9pm) so not crowded so the service was really fast and really nice. The food was amazing and there was a lot of it. We both took the Ibis Special and finished with Ethiopian coffee.

Erik-Jan B. • February 5, 2011Ask for the famous Art Burger Classic style! You'll love it!

Simon V. • June 1, 2013One of Amsterdam's hidden gems, and local favourite. For 3-4 people, ask for a big plate with a bit if everything.

Claudio G. • January 28, 2017Loved the mix plate with meat and the kindness of the waiters! Recommended for dates, nights with friends or family!

Leemor Y. • October 13, 2019Pretty decent veggie options. Get the chickpea one. Very cozy space.

Emily J. • September 29, 2010Try the dish for two and dig in with your hands. Combine with some sweet honey wine to ease the spicy heat.

Jennifer D. • February 26, 2011Try the banana-mongozo and what ever meal you fancy - they never let you down! Absolutely the best Ethiopian in the city of Amsterdam!

B • December 4, 2016Newly refurbished & opened. This is by far the best Ethiopian restaurant in Amsterdam. I'm Ethiopian, and I've been to all of them.

Samuli L. • May 21, 2018Excellent vegan plate (ask without cheese), good mango beer, and friendly service
