Great fun. The interior is a bit worn and may need a facelift, but the food was excellent,…read morewell-cooked Ethiopian fare. Shared a large spongy pancake with my son-in-law, on which were 8 small piles of goodies, half meat and half veggie. Do it right and eat with your hands. A fork or spoon are easier but a lot less fun. They are sensitive to Western palates so ask for the chili pepper to kick things up a bit. Reasonable price for what you get. Friendly waiter. Pretty small but family friendly. Make sure you get the Ethiopian coffee to finish things off.

This was my first time enjoying Ethiopian cuisine, and it was a unique gastronomic experience…read more We ordered shrimp in coconut sauce / Doro Wat (chicken with a spicy berbere sauce and an egg) & the sides they cane with were cabbage & carrots & chickpeas with turmeric. The items also come with a small salad and ayeb (cottage cheese) as well as injera. Everything arrived within about 20 minutes. The items were portioned out on a large sharing platter. The food was tasty & I especially loved the vegetables and the shrimp. The chicken was also good, but it was quite spicy and I did not have enough water. (They did not serve any tap water here & I bought a bottle but it disappeared fast!) The ayeb helped to cool down the spice a bit, but I only figured it out when I was halfway done as I did not know prior to dining that it was specifically used for this purpose. There is specific etiquette that accompanies eating Ethiopian food, but no one explained it to us. There may have been a language barrier, but understanding more about the proper manner to use injera & the rules around this particular cuisine would have been meaningful. Service was good to start, and then when we were done, it took 30 minutes to get the check. The restaurant is attractively decorated and the atmosphere is pleasant. It was full when we arrived at 8pm. The food was quite filling and we did not order dessert. It was reasonably priced for what we ordered, and I enjoyed the meal. Peace.

We went on a Friday night so the place was packed. We had no idea we needed a reservation but we…read morewere able to get a table luckily!!! They had an outdoor seating area with heating in the back. The service was pretty slow due to the amount of people that were there I guess. We ordered the vegan platter. I also wanted an Ethiopian coffee and the waiter said something to me like 'it's not Ethiopian' and I was confused. Ok so no coffee? Someone else wrote they had the coffee ceremony going on. Huh. Anyways the food was excellent. Full of flavor and packed with spice. It is ALOT of food!!! This could have easily been for 3 people. The price was reasonable as well. This would be a great place to come as a group and everyone could order a different platter to try.

Making a reservation was so easy with their website. Went on a Sunday for lunch, it was calm and…read morequiet. Few customers (probably covid related). The decorations were simple and beautiful. The waiter was super nice and he knew the menu well. The menu was simple enough for me to think that everything is made fresh everyday! Everything we ordered was delicious, although, i must say that ordering entrées and the menu is too heavy all were delicious but we got full quickly. It's like we had food good for 3 people with the big plate of the menu. I recommended this place to my friends and of course everyone else. Ethiopian food is awesome!

I was very impressed with Kokob. I'd been missing Ethiopian and Eritrean food since I moved from…read moreWashington DC. Knowing that there isn't a huge community in Brussels, I didn't have particularly high expectations for Kokob. The restaurant was adorable, very clean and tastefully decorated. Service was very good and fast. Most importantly, the food was delicious. We got the combo that had two meat dishes and three veggies, and everything was amazing. The drink selection was good, too. They had a wide selection of regular wine, Ethiopian honey wine, beer, coffee, and tea. Overall, it was a great experience. I have two major complaints that prevent me from giving this place five stars. First off, the combo meals are absurdly expensive. They have combos for minimum two people, charging EUR 20 PER PERSON for a minimum of two people. It was also way too much food, easily enough to feed four people, but if you had four people eating the same combo, you would be paying 80 euros! And yet, I know that the combo option is clearly the best way to enjoy this type of cuisine. To better strategize for next time, I would go with a group of 4-8 people and order menu items individually to share, in order to maximize our value. Secondly, they will not let you take the enjera (bread) home. We had a ton of leftovers that I was eager to take home. First they said that I just couldn't take home anything on the enjera that we'd been eating off of. They said I could take home everything else, including extra enjera, but that the enjera had to be eaten by noon the next day. Then the server consulted with the kitchen and declared that I could not take home any enjera at all. I've taken enjera home many times from restaurants in the U.S. without problems, and Google tells me it will probably stay good in the fridge for 5-7 days. Being denied my leftover enjera really was the worst part of my day. That having been said, all the food was excellent, and I will definitely be back, but I'll probably bring my own container from home to sneak enjera into my purse.

After our visit here, we fell in love with Mitmita, an Ethiopian spicy chili blend. The owner introduced it to us and said that she personally brings her own unique Mitmita from Ethiopia. I would definitely recommend visiting Asmara and trying their variety of chicken and lamb dishes.
