The menu was good, and the ambience was great, but the highlight of our lunch was really the Waitron. Such an absolute pleasure! He was knowledgeable and witty and had an amazing sense of humour. He also suggested beautiful dishes that were the highlight of our meal!

As a vegetarian, I have found it challenging to find delicious and nutritious vegetarian dishes recently. At Little Addis, my heart was singing with joy. Along with veggies, there was much good protein sources, too. We loved our dinner. The portion was huge. The food was so tasty and fresh. Though bellies were full, we could not stop eating.The service was delightful. Thanks to the warm water provided for washing hands before and after. We ate outside which made for fun people watching and also the need to be mindful. The icing on the cake was when Kassa, the restaurant's owner and amazing cook came out to see how we were doing. He shared a bit about the history of the restaurant. It was clear that he loved what he was doing.

The decor is minimal, but warm and cosy. Service was mostly attentive but this tapered off somewhat. The cocktail menu is quite original in approach. The presentation and resulting drinks are good too. Food was pretty decent. I would return again for drinks.
