Vegan

A
confidence 85%
Strongly trusted ·what tier A means

The restaurant's name and brand are built around vegan cuisine. The official menu labels dishes as VG (vegan) and V (vegetarian). Multiple vegan items are listed, and the cuisine is traditionally plant-based Ethiopian. The venue appears to cater primarily to vegans and vegetarians.

Honest caveat: Some traditional Ethiopian dishes like Awaze Tibs use seitan (wheat gluten), but these are clearly described on the menu.

The menu labels vegetarian items with a V, and many dishes are naturally plant-based. Ethiopian cuisine, the style served here, has a tradition of offering many vegetarian options. Staff members can assist diners in selecting vegetarian choices.

Coeliac · Gluten-free

B
confidence 75%

The venue's official menu marks many dishes as GF and offers a paid gluten-free injera replacement, but the kitchen is not dedicated gluten-free (shared space, no dedicated fryer per reviews). Multiple coeliac diners report being well informed and not getting sick, though cross-contact risk remains. Staff are described as knowledgeable and helpful about gluten-free needs.

Honest caveat: Several reviews note no dedicated fryer and the venue states it is not a dedicated gluten-free facility, so cross-contact risk exists for coeliac diners.

Soy-free

Best effort ·what tier C means

The official menu labels some items as containing soy, such as 'Miser Wot (GF, S)' and 'Dulet (S, VG)'. Other dishes may be soy-free, but the restaurant does not offer a soy-free menu or a separate kitchen for soy avoidance. Staff can identify soy-containing items from the menu labels.
