Café d'Éthiopie - Vegan-friendly restaurant & Gluten Free

confidence 80% ·

Strongly trusted, High-care setup. Either someone close to the kitchen (owner, chef, staff) needs to avoid this allergen themselves, OR the menu marks allergens AND dedicated equipment plus trained staff manage cross-contamination.

The entire menu is built around naturally gluten-free teff-flour injera, and every dish is explicitly described as served with gluten-free injera. The venue's own site brands itself 'Gluten Free' and the FindMeGlutenFree listing reports it as 'dedicated gluten-free' with a community snippet calling the food 'naturally 100% gluten free'. No gluten-containing ingredients appear on the menu. However, the kitchen is not independently accredited by a coeliac body, and the menu does not carry per-dish allergen codes (GF, GFO, etc.) — the gluten-free claim is a blanket statement. A coeliac diner should still confirm with staff that no wheat flour is used elsewhere (e.g. in the meat option or desserts).

The menu has a dedicated 'Vegan Gourmand/Savory Vegan' section with five clearly vegan dishes (shiro, misir, kik, gomen, and a chef's tasting menu), plus a vegan dessert. HappyCow reviews confirm multiple vegan options and the owner/chef personally explains them. The meat option (beef) is separate, so cross-contamination with animal products is possible in a shared kitchen. Vegans should specify their preference when ordering.

All five vegan dishes are also vegetarian, and the menu clearly separates the meat option. The chef's tasting menu (Dish 1) is recommended for 'lovers of vegan cuisine'. Vegetarians have abundant choices, though the kitchen also handles beef, so cross-contact is possible.
