Lucy Ethiopian Restaurant

Looked for a spot to have coffee & dessert after supper and decided to try something different. In honour of Heritage Day we ventured into this restaurant to experience an Ethiopian Coffee Ceremony. Desserts are not a big part of Ethiopian meals, but our Waiter (Richmond) was charming and we enjoyed the delightful atmosphere. We decided to return with friends, to have a meal and experience Ethiopian cuisine. We totally loved the vibe in this space. Please visit them to experience the meals of a different culture, in a very friendly atmosphere.

They have a authentic food, in a authentic place, everything there is decorate with Ethiopian culture. The girl who attended us is from Ethiopia and told us a little about the story and some curiosity. The food is good even being a little bit spicy. Nice place for know a little bit about Ethiopia

Delicious food, beautiful decor, great service. Full service restaurant that truly focuses on the experience, especially if you go in large groups! If you love eating family style and eating out with friends this is the place to do it. We only spent a week in Cape Town, but we chose to come here twice because it was so amazing! The first time we ordered 6 meat/veggie combos with 6 extra orders of injera and it was the perfect amount of food for 9 20-something year olds. The second time we got 2 vegetarian, 2 meat, and 2 combos. Both times were delicious, but we wanted to try the separate meat and veggie options because they had additional things in them that the combos did not.

Amazing Ethiopian food and great service. The waitress told us a lot about Ethiopian food and culture. It was a remarkable experience. Totally worth the visit.

What a lovely and special place. The kindest service and most exciting food experience in Cape Town. Very lovely restaurant, we would definitely recommend that to everyone who’s into different food culture.

Absolutely gorgeous food, very friendly staff. Extraordinary. We loved it... Will sure come back at our next visit if cape Town. We were 5, ordering combo. Absolutely recommend that place.

This restaurant is a must! They serve one of the most delicious Ethiopian cuisine I've tried, the portions are generous, their vegetarian options are completely vegan and the menu refers to vegetarian and non vegetarian dishes. The personal was very friendly and engaged explaining the restaurant's serving tradition. We sat upstairs in a wonderful decorated room that certainly made the experience memorable. If you go in a big group, make sure to order some starters while waiting for the main order and also recommend to try the teas and fresh fruit juices.

It was my first time trying Ethiopian food and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The waiter was fantastic, telling us all that we needed to know. Showing us how we should eat the food. The upstairs area is a must try!
