One of the best african experience in Montreal! A little bite spicy for people who are not used to it but for us it was just perfect!

The food was tasty. I'm a huge fan of Ethiopian food! I did find it quite salty compared to other places I've been & there were only 2 stew options for the vegan dish. It would be nice if there was a couple more stews that came with the order as to have some variety.

Four of us went to Nakfa for dinner tonight. The restaurant is unpretentious with informative, friendly & helpful service from the son of the owners We ordered a meat platter & a vegetarian platter for the four of us to share. The food was delicious, varied & in generous portions, reasonably priced.

I never leave reviews but I have been obsessed with this restaurant & its incredible food & lovely cook/owners. I have been driving from 5 hrs away & going back home with multiple meals because the food is seriously that good. The dishes are perfectly spiced & freshly made. The owners are so kind & hard working & flexible. I can't say enough about the opportunity to get to eat their food.
