Master Chef Restaurant

“I can’t agree with my fellow travelers. 1. the food was excellent (grilled fish) 2. yes, English menu = tourists pay more. So what? Your income in Europe, US or wherever you are from is much, much higher. So in my eyes it is just fair to pay more. And still it is cheap for what you get.”

“Good food, we had the shira with vegetables. English is not too good but you are able to communicate well enough. Food is well priced.”

“A solidly good meal. Fine price point and well worth it if you’re looking for western food. Quick service and fairly nice atmosphere.”

We were offered a lunch by a local tourist guide and I wished to test pizza Margherita, chef's speciality, which was pretty good. The chef served us a sample of grilled fish and it was excellent. I think this restaurant can be good for western people who are not used to local Ethiopian food, except for the toilet whose cleanliness and efficiency are absolutely unacceptable for western standards.

The English menu is very different from the Amharic one when it comes to prices. They specialize in fish dishes. They cost around 180 birr per one medium sized plate. The fish goulash was very tasty. We enjoyed the food but my boyfriend got a little bit sick afterwards.

I will never see this place again. The owner or manager is very rude. I got an order that I never ask. I was telling them that's not what I want, they keep telling me that's the food I order. Finally, I returned it without even touch it. I ordered another dish and I actually ate that. When the bill came, they forced me to pay for the previous food I didn't eat it at all. I asked the owner or the manager to discuss about it, but he refused to talk to me. They don't respect customers, unprofessional. Finally, if anyone wants good food with good customer service, I recommend you Four sisters (3-5) minutes away from this ugly place.

I unfortunately have to say: food was correct but not amazing and the prices are very high for Ethiopia. We asked for the menu in amharic and were told “ it didn’t exist” although 2/3 of the clientele at lunch was Ethiopian... If prices are different for foreigners then it should no be hidden!

Be aware! They have 2 menus. One in English and one in Amharic. If you are not Ethiopian, they will give you the English menu. The prices are more than 2 times the ones of the Amharic menu. When you ask for the Amharic menu, they will lie and tell you that they only have a menu in English. Avoid this place. There are much better places in Gondar that are much cheaper.
