Addis Abeba: 220 Nicholson Street Footscray

Fantastic African restaurant in a town that is dominated by African restaurants. 

A word of advice, don't try to order take away over the phone, it never ends well. Just go in, be served by the lovely student who does her homework in between taking orders and enjoy the food. The take away menu is much more limited anyway so you will be missing out if you don't eat in. 

The dishes are very filling. Senor Gringo and I order a salad, entree and meat dish of some sort and always walk out stuffed. Our favourites are Special Tibs (cubed lamb with onion, rosemary, garlic, and jalapeno peppers on a hotplate) and the spicy lamb curry (without the butter. 

We also highly rate the vegetarian platter (veganised) and the Sega Firfir (spicy lamb stew with tomato, garlic and onion tossed with injera). Plus, sometimes they have live music, which adds to the experience.  

Three ticks. We are regulars (sorry about the lack of pictures, my stomach gets the better of me sometimes).  Addis Abeba Menu, Reviews, Photos, Location and Info - Zomato
