Review by Lavinia Schneider

September 29, 2024

I recently visited Cafe Romanat for a cozy dinner, and it was a delightful experience! 🥳 We started with the honey wine and a fresh salad, which set the tone for an exciting meal. The meat and veggie combo was impressive - especially the beef gomen and greens.

It’s great to find a place with gluten-free injera available upon request! The ambiance was casual yet trendy, making it perfect for catching up with friends.

While the food was delicious, we found it a touch milder than expected. Still, the fast service and warm cups of tea made it all worth it! Highly recommend for a casual night out! 🍽️
