Bunna Cafe

Unclaimed

This place is almost like being in a different place, the food is amazing, the staff are friendly and are open to questions. I really enjoyed the pieces of Ethiopian culture scattered around the room. The bunna "coffee" is so rich ? I recently tried their Ethiopiano drink and I have never enjoyed a cup of coffee so much. Bring friends and enjoy the amazing vegan food.

I had some business in the area and want something to eat and thought about Bunna! I had no reservations and had about a 20-30 minute wait on a Saturday night. I am now convinced this is the BEST Ethiopian place for great vegetarian food! The place was packed even as late as I arrived. Very warm and accommodating staff. The food was so on point! We ordered drinks as well and just as amazing as the food! It is a little out of my normal area but I will surely go out of my way to get back here again.

Unfortunate that I finally found a go-to/favorite Ethiopian place in the city a few weeks before going home for the summer. It took some time to get here but I was very committed to procrastinating my homework, and if you're an ethiopian restaurant offering me a vegetarian combo there's really no limit to how far I'll travel for that. I got the feast for two (though I am only one. Next night dinner. It's called being smart) and apparently they offer this to go in a pizza box which is very smart and fun however I worried it would be clunky for the subway so instead I got a million containers of greatness. My photographs as always are of dubious quality, but rest assured the food was not. The injera, thank god again, was sour, I hate when it's bland but this was far from it, the perfect vessel for all of everything. I don't know all the names of the dishes but I loved everything I ate. The mushrooms stood out, I love gomen, the split peas and red lentils were doing their thing, something was spicy and idk what it was but it was ASTOUNDING I say really the whole meal I was just thrilled with so I had it again that weekend and loved it just as much. When I picked up my orders both times! The person working was friendly and warm and unbelievably kind, I'll have to dine in next time because I imagine the service is top notch. I'm going to enjoy my summer away from the easy coast but I will say, this spot will be on my mind and I'm looking forward to being reunited with the greatness that is Bunna Cafe.

This is the yummiest place ever. I’ve been here so many times I bring everyone here. I order the feast for two with everything every time lol. 10/10 Love that it’s veg love that I can explore all the diff flavors on the plate and love that I can eat with my hands. All the staff is really nice and service is excellent.

3 of us shared the platter for 2 and it was more than enough food. Also tried the lentil sambusa (amazing with the spicy topping) and mug of shorba, a warm lentil chickpea and potato soup which was hearty and nourishing. This was an all vegetarian menu and it was tasty and healthy. Was also a fan of their Ethiopian lager- habesha- very light and refreshing. People here are very welcoming and nice.
