Feedback on Lucy Ethiopian Restaurant. (Hospitality and Gastronomy) in Cape Town (Western Cape)
Description
If you’re hunting for a true Ethiopian experience, look no further than Lucy Ethiopian Restaurant on Long Street. I stumbled upon this gem almost by accident, and boy, was I pleasantly surprised!
The vibe? Super cozy and welcoming! You sit on these traditional basket tables, and as a fun twist, you eat with your hands. Yep, it’s a real hands-on experience. They even bring out hot water in a fancy silver teapot to wash up before diving into various dishes. It’s like a culinary ritual that makes your meal feel special.
Now, onto the food. Lucy’s menu bursts with flavor. From hearty meat dishes to delish vegan and gluten-free options, there’s something for everyone. They use homemade spices that come straight from the owner’s family back home. So authentic!
The service? Almost as warm as the food. I noticed the staff genuinely cares about explaining the menu. They’re friendly but might get a tad pushy if you linger too long. Still, who could blame them? You want to try the delicious cultural food, right?
Drinks are on deck too! They serve traditional Ethiopian beverages and have a solid selection of beers and wines. Perfect for rounding off your meal.
All in all, with a score of 4.7 out of 5 from over 200 reviews, it’s clear Lucy’s has earned a loyal fanbase. So, what are you waiting for? Dive into this unique culinary escape in the heart of Cape Town!
