Jurr t. • March 5, 2010Great South African meat. The 'Kudu' is the best!

Anniek V. • November 28, 2017Get the mixed platter, the vegetarian version was great. Good price too (17 eur pp) for a huge array of dishes and big portions. We’re coming back for sure

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

Maren S. • February 10, 2010Favourite african restaurant since forever. Love the desserts as well!

Ryan T. • November 20, 2016Really excellent food. Can't go wrong with the deblek (combo) plate to share. Service is slow but the place is run by a very sweet family. We love coming back here

B • January 14, 2019We've been coming here quite often. If you're looking for home kind of cooking, in a cosy, spacious place, Semai is a great option! Do call and check because sometimes they have events.

Ondřej D. • June 19, 2011Amazing eritrean food. You have to try it during your visit of Amsterdam! I am really, really recommending this place. Great experiance.

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, 2016Best thing I'd to try the Taytu special, & if you like meat, combine it with Tibs & Kitfo - delish'

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