I've heard alot about ethiopia and its culture but never gotta chance to explore...then i visited to Maharsh,Juhu and it was amazing experience out there food was lovely and so was the ambience...would recommend if one wants to explore food😊 #foodreviewer
Having seen some of the negative reviews of this place I was a bit apprehensive and ordered a soup when I got there - just in case I didn't like the food... I shouldn't have. The thali was awesome. My wife and I both loved it. The server was great - he had advised us against ordering an extra starter as he said we might not be able to have it after the thali. And he was right! We couldn't even finish the thali between the two of us. Every dish in the thali tasted different and the flavours were something new for us. The pricing is right. Can't wait to return to the only Ethiopian cuisine place in town.
Great food!! Had been craving Ethiopian cuisine and this was really awesome and met all expectations:)
With my family having roots in Djibouti, there was huge expectation from this cafe. And it did not disappoint at all. Having had the authentic food earlier, we did have some comparison to go by.
We ordered the Fir Fir which was super and flavorful. We then ordered the platter for 4 which was a good mix of veges and lentils - the Alicha Missir Wot and Shiro Wot were our favourites. The staff was very accommodating with adjusting Jain food within this for my grandmom for whom even one plate of anything would be a large qty. The injera (star of the dish) was fresh and soft. The platter was followed by super Ethiopian coffee and popcorn.
Definitely visiting again!

Had been hearing about this place for a while and when I finally visited, it was worth the wait! We started with the sauteed injera, which was like bread upma, but with injera. The bread itself is very flavorful so the dish turned out to be delicious. For the main course, we had platter for 2, which made me wish that we shouldn't have ordered the starter! The quantity is huge and it is difficult to finish everything on it, especially when the combination also includes bread basket, Turkish coffee, and brownies!
The lentils were really good as were the other dishes. I couldn't understand why they had given pita, garlic bread and other things along with injera, and we couldn't finish any of it. On top of that, we were also given a sampler of their new dish, some North Indian dish.
All of this was followed by some good coffee and nice brownies. The only problem (not at all a huge one) was that when the server first opened the platter, I saw a big fat working squirming around in the salad. Of course they replaced the dish in a blink and I didn't ended up getting that extra protein, but that just shows that they use vegetables without pesticides!
All in all, had a good experience as the manager didn't even throw us out although we had been there for good 2+ hours. If you want to try close-to-authentic Ethiopian food, then this is your stop!
Though was spectical how the food would be as had gone with two kids to try a new cuisine , we thoroughly enjoyed the food especially foul with garlic bread , tomato n basil soup and the Ethiopian thali which was the best . The quantity of food is also good enough....we ordered the thali for 4 people but cud not finish it . Overall a great experience will surely visit again.

I had eaten euthopian food in america and hence have been craving it. Through word of mouth heard about this place and landed here to end my craving. Wasn’t disappointed at all must eat. Up to the mark 👍

Quite a unique experience to immerse yourself in another culture for a day! The owner, Charmie, is really passionate about the entire culture, and not only their food, and was kind enough to share stories of her childhood of being brought up in Djibouti (a neighbour of Ethiopia). With an array of lentils, cabbage, beetroot and bread: all doused with sufficient spice to keep your taste buds tingling, this is truly a colourful delight for all the senses! This place is above budget at ~INR2k for 2 people (we took the INR1.55k platter and a chocolate brownie with ice-cream dessert) because the ingredients are regularly flown in by friends and family from Ethiopia. Interestingly, Christians constitute 60-70% of the population and observe a strict vegetarian diet (even vegan) during the 40-day period of Lent, which is why the enterprising Gujarati community has a wide array of vegetarian dishes to choose from! Definitely recommend a one-time visit for the sheer colours, spice and variety!

Its a one of a kind Ethiopian restraurant in Mumbai , and honestly , the food is alot like indian home food , we had the Bayenetu small which is like a “thali” where the items come on the injera bread along with a bread basket , they also serve tea or coffe along with some popcorn afterwards , I am really glad that mumbai is finally opening up to some new cuisuines ! And overall , I really enjoyed the food , however , the injera bread is a little sour , so if you have an issue with that , you might not like the food as much . All in all , its worth giving it shot and trying something new ! Jashen Thakur
Been a fan of Ethiopian food for a while, so was excited to visit the first Ethiopian restaurant in Mumbai. The food was excellent. Tried most of the main dishes and everything we had was delicious and full of flavour. Loved the teqel gomen the best among all the vegetables.
The injera was soft, fluffy and complimented the food really well.
The sharing plates come in various options with choice in the number of dishes and with optional popcorn and coffee.
The staff here was very attentive and friendly. Thanks to the chef who spent time talking to us about Ethiopian food and explaining the dishes.
A great meal and will definitely be back soon.
Great place, delicious food, a unique experience. Felt like I was dining in Ethiopia. Pure veg restaurant. The chef is very interactive and proactive. Coming back for sure. Good job team Maharsh.

Surprisingly good Ethiopian vegetarian food. Flavors were close enough to the authentic cuisine. Enjoyed everything we ate.
Very interesting meal.
Had the Bayenetu ( Ethiopian Thalia). Teaches you about communal sharing and eating.
Best eaten with hands.
Server was well versed with the definitions and preparations.
Small cozy tastefully decorated.
No Ethiopian desserts, though.
Valet parking available, at owners rush though.
What a lovely little restaurant! Delicious Ethiopian food served in the traditional way on an injeera. The food comes super fast after you place the order and the servers are so friendly. And most the time, there is Ethiopian music playing on the tv, transporting you from the streets of Mumbai to Addis Ababa. Our all time favourite local eatery.
Had a couple of Ethiopian starters and coffee. The restaurant looks small from the outside but has 7-8 tables inside. It's pure veg and has Jain options hence more food options for vegetarians. Also had Ethiopian coffee here, which was amazing. Snacking came to 500 per person, the lunch costs nearly 700per head. The food experience is different compared to the regular fare, as for lunch plate they serve a single large "thali" for 2-4 (with more qty) wit multiple dishes.
The one and only place serving Ethiopian cuisine... It's a vegetarian place and small joint not a fancy restaurant. The food tasted nice and ambience is Ethiopian. The cuisine is somewhat similar to Indian and hence should find lovers in people who don't like to deviate from typical tastes. Must have would be Shiro Wot. Ethiopian food is typically served in a single big plate, lined with a big roti like Injera (made of tef flour) topped with vegetables of your choice. .
Overall, a new cuisine introduced to Mumbai so go and check it out...
New concept. Food is real good and fresh. It has hint of gujju food. Expensive though. However could be tried once.

Veggie Ethiopian food!!!! So glad this exists in Mumbai. It's the only one of its kind, so support it. Also, the food is yummy!!! And it is authentic. Try the fir fir, have the wats, and ask for the Ambo, straight from Ehtiopia. They have Jain options also. All delicious.
Genuine Ethiopian food. Very delicious and perfect Ethiopian taste. The menu is very well planned and it has most of the vegetarian dishes that I've had in Ethiopia. Ambience is elegant, hard work has been put to give the feel of being in Ethiopia. The showstopper items are injera and the vegetables and lentils served with it. The dishes are served in Ethiopian baskets and that gives it an authentic feel. Neat, clean, well lit, comfortable, served by happy waiters. The owners supervise personally, they take maximum efforts to explain the guests about this vibrant country, the importance of the dishes served, how they are prepared and the ingredients used. The coffee ( original Ethiopian Coffee) and popcorn served after food is very commendable. All in all, everyone should visit the place and enjoy the Ethiopian dishes. Total value for money. The interest that I saw in people coming there; I think the owners will have to look for a bigger place very soon.
