What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Wedeb's Restaurant offers an exceptional Ethiopian dining experience in Tromsø, praised for its authentic flavors and warm, cozy atmosphere. Diners rave about the delicious food, especially the sharing platters and vegan options, complemented by friendly and welcoming service. While the food quality is consistently high, some reviews mention the restaurant can be a bit chilly.
"Lovely decorations that make a cozy atmosphere with lighting just bright enough to see everything around you but not make you feel like you’re in a hospital.
Server was friendly and easy to communicate with— had great suggestions about all of the food and drinks.
Food can be sole plates or a large shared platter. Makes for great fun as all of it can be eaten with your hands if you like! Quite a bit of the menu options are vegan/vegetarian. Lovely selection of non-alcoholic drinks that go beyond the usual juice or soda."
Kate Blackwell
"Hands down one of the best restaurants in Norway. They’ve kept the flavourful recipes from Ethiopia without toning it down to the Norwegian taste buds.
Well priced, lovely service, cosy and authentic feel in the restaurant and would definitely come again.
Really good for vegetarians and vegans"

"Absolutely sublime! Wife and I shared the falafel starter which was excellent, and the Horn of Africa veggie plate. Some of the best food I've ever had, and certainly the best Ethiopian food I've had! Highly recommended, both by wife and I!"
