Addis

Way too many people have commented on the terrible service of this restaurant. That is why I find it amazing that people continue to give them too many stars because of how wonderful the food is. I agree that the food is good, but it is not exceptional. In all honesty, and in good conscience, I cannot recommend this restaurant beyond two stars. They are not only atrociously bad on service, they now tell you they don't take credit cards when they bring you the bill at the end of your meal. I have seen several people having to run out to the cash machine to pay their bills. I think it may be worth sending them a message by not rewarding this bad behaviour by giving them the review they deserve.

I found Addis when I was waiting for my sister, brother in law and niece who were running late for our lunch date. Well thank goodness they were late because we really enjoyed our visit. We had never eaten ethiopian food before and had no idea what to expect. The flavours were amazing! I don't eat meat and there was a fantastic selection of vege (actually vegan) food. We really enjoyed eating the traditional ethiopian 'bread' which had an amazing lemony flavour and was a real experience to eat. My niece who is 11 months old was made welcome and enjoyed tucking into it too (she is a fairly adventurous child with her food!). The service was very laid back, which meant we didn't feel rushed, but at times we would have liked a bit more attention, for instance when wanting to order coffees, but when being served they were attentive and pleasant. Would definately return and recommend to friends.
