We entered and were immediately pleased with to see a colorful décor and smell a wonderful aroma. The service was very cordial and the food very well presented. The selection was meat or vegetarian. We weren’t shown a menu but asked if we wanted meat or vegetarian. We paid 15 Euros for each person and left extremely satisfied.

I absolutely loved this place! We came one Friday night for dinner and we did not have a reservation. This place was packed –a happening scene among the Milanese Bohemian trend setters. I was hoping we would not be turned away. The owner looked at me and said wait one moment, then he seated us! My roommate swore up and down that it was because of my brown face. I just smiled and said tomorrow we can use your white face, but for now let’s just enjoy! She laughed and we proceeded to order. Eritrean food is almost identical to Ethiopian. I still cannot even figure out the difference? The menu was not complicated; you get the standard platter with chicken, beef, lamb, greens, and cabbage mash, with injera. It was delicious and the staff is excellent! For 20 euro this huge platter, cinnamon tea, and the smoothest South African red wine. We could have used another stomach at our table with all the food they brought out! I could kick myself for not having my camera, but the décor of this place was so funky and cool with real animal skins on the wall, hues of dark mahogany, and citrus. Pure African Swag! Check out Claudia R’s pict to see what i’m talkin about! Porta Venezia, the area I interned in, is a beautiful upscale melting pot of culture, this community reminds me so much of 14th and U Street back here in DC. If I had more time I would definitely have come here just one last time before leaving! I highly recommend this restaurant as a tourist attraction, the staff speaks perfect English, and the area has a lot of affordable shops off of Buenos Aires.

Eritrean restaurant, similar to Ethiopian food. It is hard to find authentic tasting non-Italian food in Milan, but this is it. Excellent injera bread and the different little vegatable and meat dishes. Nice ambiance, and decent prices. Close to Porta Venezia.
