Massawa In Roma

Very quiet and intimate place, good food, and I found the staff very kind and welcoming. I will definitely be back.

We couldn't leave Rome without tasting Eritrean cuisine!

A unique experience with Eritrean food, very good service, and a place with a certain nostalgia. I came here because there's no food from that part of the world in my country, so I was curious to try something new, and I can say I was surprised by the flavor. Injera, the traditional bread, is a bit sour, so eating it alone can be very difficult. They recommended I try it with traditional spicy meat, and the flavor was balanced a bit. For me, it wasn't really spicy enough, but it was delicious. The experience is made by being able to eat the food with my hands, the way they explained it to me was traditional. The atmosphere is filled with handicrafts from the country. The service was very good, from the cook and waiter. Tip: Pair your meal with an Asmara beer, which they also bring from Eritrea.

An absolute gem of a restaurant with the loveliest Eritrean decor, warmest staff, and top quality dishes. First time trying Eritrean food, and it won’t be the last. There’s an entire vegan section on the menu, and I highly recommend the Misto which includes all the veg options (a little bit of everything), as well as the falafels which are homemade and the best I’ve had in over a decade. There’s an Eritrean beer (Asmara) that goes well with the above mentioned dishes!

Super kindness, delicious food and a timeless location
