As a vegetarian who is seld proclaimed chef, the food is delicious!!!! Light but filling & satisfying at the same.time! Taste very fresh, bombs or different flavors exploded in my mouth! I got the veg plate. Highly recommended money well spent. I dont review much this is authentic
We came for dinner with our three daughters & loved the experience. The food was excellent, & the service was warm & welcoming. We ordered two combination meals with vegetable & meat dishes, & every bite was full of flavor. I called to make reservations ahead of time, but it wasn't really necessary. Communication was friendly & efficient. We'll definitely return & highly recommend it.
I attended a dinner at Nakfa with 13 other guests, & it was a pure delight. The food was incredible, on top of an amazing & warm service by Kahsay & his wife. 10/10 recommend!
We had such a great time here! The owner was super friendly & made us feel welcome, creating a warm & memorable atmosphere from the moment we arrived. & the food was absolutely delicious! Definitely recommend this place & I'll for sure be coming back!
Best Eritrean food I've had in a long time. The portions were generous, the service was phenomenal, & the place had a very authentic feel overall. The owner was also incredibly sweet & did his best to accommodate our large group. Can't recommend it enough.
An amazing experience from start to finish! The owners are so kind & welcoming & the food was great! If you want authentic Eritrean Cuisine, this is the place to go to in Montreal.
Great food, better service. The host was personable, attentive, & provided a great experience for my friends & I.
Absolutely amazing. A must-try Ethiopian/Erythrean restaurant. I had a combination of 6 meat & vegetable dishes on top of a large piece of injera, & every single dish was tasty, generous & well seasoned. It all paired perfectly with the injera. They also gave me some spicy powder to dip the food in, & it brought everything to the next level.
Although the meal was a bit pricy for one person (around $40), I left full & happy. The whole experience felt like I was travelling to another country.
Best Ethiopian in Montreal, & we tried all of them! Love the new decor updates too! As vegans we love this place
A nice surprise. It doesn't look much from the exterior but everything there was great. Eritrean restaurant with its vibe, no fancy bell or whistle. The food was great, the service amazing. Will come back for sure!
Totally worth the wait. Delicious authentic food. Friendly service & quiet atmosphere!
Le plat végétarien était exceptionnel ainsi que la crêpe injera! Belle découverte
Incredible. Missed Erithrean / Ethiopian cuisine & this one did it for me!
Amazing food! Best Ethiopian food that I've had in Montreal or Toronto. My friend & I shared a veggie combo & each dish was so flavourful & delicious. We also got a mango smoothie, which was really tasty. The woman who works there (I assume she's the owner) was also really nice & friendly.
I was visiting from Toronto & craving some good Habesha food while in Montreal. After some searching, I found Nakfa Restaurant & decided to give it a try; & I'm glad I did! I ordered the combo for one, which came with a generous mix of meat & vegan options: white tibs, key tibs, shiro, cabbage, greens, salad, & a spicy red key siga wot called zigni. Everything was delicious & well-prepared; full of flavor & cooked perfectly. The portion was just right for one person, & I also enjoyed a nice cup of tea with the meal.
The service was good, though there's a bit of room for improvement. The space is quite small, & it wasn't easy to find a seat. I found the price a bit higher than what I'm used to in Toronto; I paid around $50 including a 15% tip; not sure why the difference, but the quality made up for it.
Overall, it was a great experience & a solid spot for authentic Habesha food in Montreal. Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a taste of Eritrean/Ethiopian cuisine in the city!
The owner was warm & welcoming who took great care in presenting her food. The brown meat stew in the centre was especially tasty. She checked on us frequently & made sure we had enough injera to swoop up all the delicious stew.
Ridiculously good Eritrean/Ethiopian food prepared by an extremely welcoming owner! We got the Meat Platter (2-3 pax) for $48 excl. taxes. Food took a while to come but it's 100% worth the wait!
Delicious! We had the mixed vegetarian & meat for two. The service was pretty quick. I've also taken out here & it's been fast. I highly recommend going here!
