Situated in KP along with savya rasa.
The ambience is top notch and the service was brilliant.
The best part was that the staff was well informed and educated us about the Ethiopian culture.
Loved the mandassi... A very simple but tasty dish.
The chicken was cooked well.
The injera looked familiar but tasted different and was very soft.
Best part was the coffee at the end.
A very pleasant experience.
Awesome food, must visit if you love to do food experiment. At least my experience was awesome. planning to visit again. 👍👍👍
Definitely a must try!!! We took the opportunity to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary here, Samy, Indra and Kishore, made sure we had the perfect one. From the table set up to the explanation of the cuisine to the service and taste of each and every dish was exquisite, warm and personal. I couldn’t have picked a better restaurant to celebrate our special day!!
Amazing Ethiopian food. This was my first attempt at having Ethiopian food and it was amazing. The food is delicious. Their bread is so soft and spongy, you will fall in love with it. The restaurant is not just another food joint, it shows the Ethiopian culture. Everything about this place leaves a great impression, the staff, the decor, food serving etc. You can also view Ethiopian artifacts at this place. It’s a wholesome experience to be here.

I had been thinking about eating here for quite sometime. But trying out a place whose food I'd never heard of nor could pronounce, did seem a bit out there. Not that I didn't want to go, I did, but I figured if I do make a fool out of myself, I'd better have some company.
So, I finally got a chance to try out the fabled Ethiopian cuisine. Years had been spent making jokes about Ethiopian food, It was now time to try it.
The restaurant is an extension of Savya Rasa, another fine establishment. The place had been decorated with, which I can only assume as I have no knowledge in the matter, with traditional African arts and symbols. It really sets the mood running as you take a seat and browse through the menu.
The menu isn't very extensive like other restaurants but that is to be expected of a place that specialises in a particular cuisine. Upon asking the server, he recommended the buffet which would provide us with a variety of options to choose from and easier than picking one dish from the ala carte and hoping we've got it right.
The food was served in a huge plate which was meant to be shared by all the participants, as per the tradition. They started with the Mandassi, and then followed by Injera upon which all the dishes, whose names are on the menu but i cant remember, are served. The food is not a fusion and since it focusses on authenticity, no spices are used, which in my experience might be a deal breaker for some people. For desserts we had sweet sambosas and dumplings accompanied with a pot of salted black butter coffee which was to die for.
And for some reason, popcorn. No idea why.

Abyssinia , Kp is one of a kind and only Ethopian restaurant India that not only depicts the culture in its decor but also in the food as well the hospitality. The decor consists of these loving lamp shades that portray their meal and dining stories and how they believe to sit together and eat and share their meals . Much like Indian culture they serve their food traditionally in a large platter where families can sit together and eat. The restaurant has tried their best to present the food in way where one can sit and eat from the same platter but start with feeding the family member the very first morsel. This encourages love and care amongst the family members as per their culture .
The decor consists of lamp shades , old musical instruments, coffee table and a typical dining set up to let u indulge into the culture. They start off with washing hands into a bowl to start the meal and then move forward with a welcome drink called "Tej" made with fermented rice. Moving forward we ate the starter called mandassi, with green coriander and parsley chutney, maincourse included an array of dishes and gravies with their staple bread called "injera". All the gravies put on the injera, we had a great time enjoying and relishing the gorgeous spread of curries and gravies . Not just that, they also had palate cleanser consisting of cottage cheese in case u wanna relish the taste more sincerely. Meal ended with Baklava and Sweet Sambosa. And the famous Ethiopian coffee, that was die for , served with spiced butter, salt and popcorn , By the time we were done. It was happy and tummy full !! If you are going in large groups order the full platter called Messob, unlimite platter or else go for Ala Carte menu. The meals cost 799, 999, 1199 approx

Had a wonderful feast. Tastes are authentic and create a riot of flavors. We had seen these sort of dishes on TV and I had tried Ethiopian food in Belgium but this was way better in quality and quantity. Chandan served us today and patiently explained the concept and the culture....service was prompt and good and we loved the experience.
Doro Wot is exceptionally exquisite, and an absolute must-try. Their house wine also reminded us of the countryside...it was a rich version of tadi. A surprising delight was their coffee... Served in a beautiful pot, even though it was devoid of sugar or milk it was just perfect, light and not really bitter. We started with half cups and then followed up with two more even though we were full.
We couldn't even finish the whole Abol messob (the basic "thali" version) which was sad. Maybe we're getting older. :P But that should give you an idea about the volume.
Hit the place if you want a nice cutlery-free bonding time with your loved ones over delicious food. Thanks Chandan for your hospitality!

The ambience is just lovely,they had pics and artifacts of the place and the color combination of the walls is very well done.
So we started with a drink called "Tezz" which a rice wine and their traditional welcome drink.
Ethiopian cuisine is not only a style of food,but the way to eat.We ordered their "Messob" where the place all the injera in a big plate where injera is a ragi dosa which is fermented for 36 hours,and it has sour taste to it.
It is really interesting how the Ethiopian people eat their food.
After the injeras are served in the big platter they pour all the curries, vegetables,salads and all the other things on it.You are supposed to eat all these with the ragi dosa they provide you with.
You need atleast 5-6 people to finish it ! The food was absolutely delicious and lipsmacking and we loved each and every item that was served to us !
As our tummy was full,we then went for the desserts which were Sweet samosa and baklava.Both the desserts were really good .The samosa was crispy and not too sweet.
To end our meal we tried their Ethiopian coffee which was served with popcorn.
It is basically a black coffee served with popcorn,butter and salt.
The pricing is a bit on the higer side and the staff is very friendly and humble.Overall a great place to try out some lovely different food.
