Café Omo Äthiopisches Restaurant in München

Sorry to go against the mainstream but we didn’t like the food. The small mixed platter for 5€ was basically some green salad, a teaspoon of potato salad, a teaspoon of some sour injira bread and a toast bread with some mustard-looking spread. The mixed vegetarian meal was bland and uninspiring. There’s better Ethiopian in Munich than Omo. PS the service was nice but mega slow. And last but not least, cash only? In 2024? Really?

Food was OK but not particularly, we expected more, the service was good, it just took a bit of time, the furnishings were very simple or even non-existent

The two of us were there at the end of October and had a delicious dinner. The vegan plate for two is wonderful so everyone can try a little of everything. If you need a little more bread, you can get a piece for free. However, one of the dishes tasted a bit too sour for us, which is exacerbated by the fact that injera is already sourdough. The chocolate cake for dessert was also very tasty. The people there were very friendly, but while the apparent owner asked us at the end if everything was OK, the service unfortunately seemed a bit unmotivated.

The food was excellent and the service was also super nice. It would be 5 points if it weren't for the price-to-quantity ratio. We had the Omo platter for 2 for 42 euros. We were "medium" hungry and unfortunately neither of us were full. We'd love to come back and hope for slightly more generous portions!

September 2024. We were there for dinner for the second time and, like last time, we enjoyed the food very much. We ordered a lamb dish which was spectacular. The service and attention were excellent. July 2024. We were there on Saturday and everything was perfect. The food was great, the staff very nice and attentive, the place very nice... we will definitely come back!

Unfortunately, our visit to... Didn't like the restaurant. The ambience is carelessly furnished. For example, there was no coffee ceremony. Unfortunately, the food wasn't particularly good and we had to wait a long time for the food. It was also very loud in the restaurant, so you couldn't have a proper conversation.

Super good service and best food :)

Mega tasty and super nice and lovely staff :)

The service is very bad!!! You enter the restaurant and are not greeted..!! They don't come and ask you if you want to order something??? More important only for old customers!!! Food far below expectations!!! The bread wasn't fresh!!! Ordered chicken (a small piece of chicken with an egg and cheese) and it cost 15.50. Lamb costs 17.00 euros, no words to explain. You order your food and are not asked if we need cutlery!! Nothing is provided, not even a napkin. You should ask yourself. They decided that we should eat by hand, but the old customers are treated like kings and queens.. There are so many negative points. I don't have the words to explain.

Great service Very cooler and funnier, assume owner We received good advice and the food was good too The sharing plates are fun

Delicious, authentic food and very nice service. We'd love to come back.

Great food, at a really fair price. The man who served us was very friendly. Happy to come back 😀

Super authentic and super nice staff

Super tasty, service a bit reserved but friendly, interior ok. Even though the location isn't ideal, this restaurant has loyal customers - and rightly so. If you want to try something other than their own restaurant when visiting the nearby Volkstheater, you will find an excellent option here! Tip: Reservation recommended. And from the menu: just try it out.

The place is really nicely decorated with traditional decor, e.g. B. For tea/coffee ceremonies. We had dinner and it was definitely an experience in terms of taste. Unfortunately it wasn't right for me. The food is eaten with a flatbread.

Unfortunately at the times stated on the internet 🤔

We spontaneously ended up in Omo and were welcomed like old friends. The food is fantastic, traditional, simply wonderful. We also had a really nice chat with the owner and learned a lot about the history of Ethiopia... A real recommendation!

Food was nothing special. Service was also nothing special. We order a starter for two that was basically a mini toast and some salad with mustard. Ok to try once maybe, but for me no reason to come again.

If you are not yet familiar with Ethiopian (and Eritrean) food, you should definitely try it! The food at Omo was tasty. But if you've ever been invited and enjoyed this food at an ethiopian home, there's not much difference here. However, in a restaurant and considering the price, I expect a little more, more flavor, finesse or twists. All in all nice & simple food. The atmosphere was nice but could be a bit more elegant and welcoming.

Omo is a relaxed Ethiopian Restaurant with friendly service. They have plenty of indoor seating which can also accomodate large groups (>10). I ordered the Doro Wot BeAyib (which was chicken in onion curry) and was served with Injera bread. Like other Ethiopian restaurants, they also have sharing plates with Injera bread (which keeps getting refilled as you consume). I enjoyed the food (only criticism was that it could have been warmer). Also tried the Ethiopian coffee which was presented with a lot of fanfare. The place was busy on a Friday evening, so definitely reserve in advance. It's a Cash-only place!

I was here today with my friends to have another delicious Ethiopian meal. The restaurant and the staff as well as the food were first class. I can only recommend.

Food was delicious, service unfortunately a bit slow but friendly

The staff is very polite and accommodating. You get the feeling that everyone is very proud of Ethiopian cuisine and is therefore very willing to help if you have any questions. The food is very, very tasty and the platters for several people offer a wonderful overview of what is on offer. The Ethiopian beer called dju dju is also extremely tasty. At least for those who like fruit-flavored beer. This was our second time there and it won't be the last time! Thank you for the great evening.

Great Ethiopian food & friendly staff. A little more of the Omo plate can be put on the plate. Gladly again!

Super pleasant and hospitable... very attentive and incredibly great unusual cuisine. Unfortunately we didn't have much time before visiting the theater but we will definitely come back

Very tasty, well-seasoned food, friendly staff in beautiful surroundings. 👌🏼

Very tasty food. Super Service. Large vegan selection.

Was super tasty. I love eating with my fingers ✌️

The service from the unfriendly/indifferent waiter was poor. The starter platter for two (€12) was a joke. - lots of green salad and three other small starters. That's not enough even for one person. The main course was OK.

Diverse food, great for vegetarian/vegan. The service handled our reservation flexibly (17 instead of 10 pax) and was extremely friendly. We'd love to come back.

Delicious as always. Have been there very often. Service great. Be sure to reserve

The food is very tasty and very friendly staff.

We think the restaurant has a homely, pleasant atmosphere, the colors are well chosen, the woven baskets on the walls and the pictures are very authentic. The owner is very friendly and happy to have an informative chat when work permits. The food was excellent, the waiter was courteous. He gave us good advice. All in all, a very successful evening in an authentic restaurant with Ethiopian music in the background and pleasant guests. Apparently a lot of regulars too. We'd love to come back. Clear recommendation!

We were not allowed to share a main course, even though we wanted to order several starters. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Sehr sauber und wunderschön eingereicht. Die Portionen sind leider nicht so groß, aber lecker!

Einfach ein Erlebnis! Man kann hier in gemütlichem Ambiente äthiopische Gerichte probieren. Die Kellnerin/Der Kellner erklären einem, was man bestellt hat und wie man es isst. Burger und Pizza können viele aber Äthiopoisch Essen bleibt in Erinnerung.

Das Essengehen im Cafe Omo war definitiv ein interessantes Erlebnis, man isst alle Gerichte statt mit Besteck mit einem leckeren "Fladen" aus Sauerteig, der vegane Mischteller besteht aus 6 wechselnden Gerichten und konnte somit einen guten Einblick in die verschiedenen Geschmacksrichtungen bieten. Aber auch das Gericht 20 (Kichererbsenpaste) kann ich sehr empfehlen. Draußen zu sitzen ist aufgrund des urbanen, aber dennoch recht ruhigen Flairs angenehm. Die Wartezeiten sind im grünen Bereich: unsere Gerichte kamen alle recht schnell, aber nicht gleichzeitig. Die Preise sind eher hoch, aber echt noch okay.

Three weeks ago, my family and I had the pleasure of dining at Omo Ethiopian Restaurant, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The ambiance was delightful, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for us to enjoy our meal. The staff were exceptional, displaying genuine warmth and hospitality. Their lovely smiles and attentiveness made us feel truly welcome throughout the evening. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking a memorable dining experience. The highlight of the night was the generous portions of the dishes we ordered. Despite ordering for three people, the servings were so abundant that we couldn't finish everything on our plates. It was truly a satisfying and filling experience. One thing that truly stood out was the thoughtful attention they paid to our son's preferences. They custom made the tibs dish to be less spicy. This level of care and consideration for their guests' needs made the experience even more special. Overall, our visit to Omo Ethiopian Restaurant left us with lasting memories, and we will undoubtedly return to relish their delectable cuisine and welcoming hospitality.

Ich hol mir da immer gerne was zum Mitnehmen, weil ich es so lecker finde.

A really relaxed atmosphere, quiet neighbourhood. We went there as a party of 12 and it was perfect as it wasn't loud and crowded as most other places tend to get in Munich. Service was good and injera was replenished frequently. It is my favourite cuisine so I have to say it is amongst the less enjoyable I've had. The meat dishes especially had a funny taste. The salad which is one of my favourites wasn't well seasoned at all. The vegetarian dishes were OK. If you do go and are vegan, make sure to tell them not to put Ayb on your plate (milk based).

Das äthiopische Restaurant in München bietet ein authentisches kulinarisches Erlebnis. Die Atmosphäre ist einladend, das Essen ist köstlich und der Service ist hervorragend. Sehr empfehlenswert!

Das Essen ist sehr lecker. Es ist nicht zu wenig sehr nettes Personal Wir haben den Abend sehr genossen und kommen sehr bald wieder

Super lecker essen freundliche Bedienung immer wieder gerne

Delicious food, fun to eat in a group. The owner is really cool. We've been ordering and dining-in here for the last two years and it's become a minor addiction for us to have Ethiopian every few weeks :) Can highly recommend

Great Ethiopian food! They have some good drink options, too.

Super authentisches Restaurant mit sehr bemühtem Personal und humorvollem und erklärfreudigem Besitzer ;) Wir hatten eine gute Zeit dort, das Essen ist der Hammer und hat ein faires Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Vor allem ist es eine Abwechslung zu dem, was man sonst so bekommt. Äthiopisch halt ;)

Been to the Café for the first time this Tuesday to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday with friends. It was our first time trying Ethiopian food, and it couldn’t have been better. The waiters were absolutely attentive, the food was very tasty. The place has been tastefully decorated. There where different vegan options and as LGBT+ people, we felt very welcome. The House is hygienically well prepared and tables are positioned in a distance from each other.

Lovely Restaurant and friendly people 😍

Datenight im Café Omo: sehr gute Wahl! Das Essen war lecker & die Bedienungen total freundlich und aufmerksam

Cash Only! If you enjoy Ethiopian cuisine or are looking for a new dining experience, you may want to give Café Omo a try. A member of the staff was friendly and provided information about the food, which I appreciated. We ordered the vegan meal for two and found it to be satisfying.

Wir waren das erste mal im Café Omo und es ist absolut weiterzuempfehlen. Der Service ist sehr aufmerksam und das Essen wirklich lecker. Einfach ein ganz anderes Erlebnis :) Einzig die Raumtemperatur war sehr kühl, sodass wir beim Essen die Jacken angehalten haben. Nichtsdestotrotz ein tolles Essen in einmaligem Ambiente.

Erstmalig Äthiopisch gegessen in diesem Restaurant. Vorher reserviert und rechtzeitig glutenfreien Sauerteig Fladen vorbestellt. Die Menu Karte zeigt eine gute Mischung von Getränken (sogar Bier aus Äthiopien und exotische Cocktails) und eben Gerichten aus diesem Teil Afrikas. Gerichte werden auf dem Brot bzw. Fladen in einem Korb bzw Mand serviert. Dazu noch der Sauerteig womit man das Gericht (Fleisch und oder Gemüse) mit den Fingern isst. Geschmacklich war es sehr gut, das Ambiente war sehr relaxed und die Desserts sehr lecker. Glutenfreies Essen ist hier prima möglich. Bitte beachten dass nur in bar gezahlt werden kann. Insgesamt ein angenehmes Restaurant mit gutem Essen. Absolut empfehlenswert!

Waren spät dran, bekamen trotzdem noch Essen. Sehr lecker!

Erstklassiger Service, freundliches Personal, hervorragende Küche. Wir kommen jederzeit wieder. Vielen Dank für den schönen Abend.

Service und Ambiente sind der Wahnsinn. Auch die Menge, die Tatsache dass wir kurz vorher noch glutenfreies Injera bestellen konnten, total lieb! Zum super leckeren Essen: gut für alle die nicht gern scharf Essen - aber die kann man auch nachbestellen - gern wieder!

Unglaublich leckeres Essen und super freundliches Personal!

Sehr nettes Restaurant, sehr freundlich und lecker!

Sehr leckerer Äthiopier in München. Unbedingt vorher Reservieren. Hier ist es immer gut besucht.

Wir waren zum ersten mal äthiopisch essen. Der Kellner/Besitzer war sehr freundlich und hat uns sehr gut beraten. Vor allem das Essen mit den Händen war anfangs sehr ungewohnt. Mithilfe eines sehr leckeren Sauerteiges war es dann spielend leicht die Soßen/Hauptspeisen zu essen. Wir werden wieder kommen

Super Essen, mega nettes Personal und ein gesamt stimmiges Restaurant!

Ein tolles Restaurant mit super leckerem veganen Gerichten. Wahnsinnig freundlich und es fühlt sich richtig authentisch an! Große Empfehlung für ein kulinarisches Erlebnis in München.

Das Essen war richtig lecker, sehr gut gewürzt, sehr geschmackvoll. Preis / Leistung kann man sich nicht beschweren. 👍 Die Besitzer sind total lieb und sehr freundlich und supper service. Kann es sehr gerne weiterempfehlen, ich komme auf jedenfall wieder 😘

Great authentic food, wonderful atmosphere.

Waren heute dort Essen, super und sehr zuvorkommender Service, sehr leckeres Essen, super sympathische Besitzer. Jederzeit wieder, wir freuen und drauf
