Addis prides itself on fresh and homemade dishes, which chimes with the homey feel of this wood-panelled joint, its walls adorned with Amharic sayings and snapshots of Ethiopian iconography. Dig into vegan dishes like misir wot, a spicy red lentil stew, or go for a traditional staple like kitfo, finely chopped lean beef marinated with special Ethiopian butter and mitmita (powdered bird’s eye chilli). Scoop it all up with injera, a soft and fermented pancake-like bread baked in-house, for the full effect.
Time Out tip
Overwhelmed by choice? Order the Addis Special for two and enjoy a mixed platter of chicken, lamb and vegetables in order to try a bit of everything.
