The best restaurants serving African food in Brighton and Hove South East

Have used numerous times as a pre-concert meal venue. Lovely food, friendly staff. 10-15 minutes walk to The Dome or the Brighton Center.

Abyssina provided a wonderful buffet meal, with desert for 80++ for a joint birhday party with myself and a friend. Their food was one of the highlights of the event, they were exceptionally generous with what they provided, all delicious and delivered on time. Words cannot express the praise the buffet attracted and a host of new future customers. I cannot thank Yonas and his team enough for making our event extra special. I strongly encourage a visit to this authentic restuarent or a home delivery you won't regret it for a second. And vegan and veggie options to boot !

Ate here yesterday evening for the first time for a family birthday. We were really impressed with the quality and flavour of the food, we tried a variety of small plates and shared a tagine, all of which were superb. The small dining room had a lovely ambience and was busy for a rainy Monday which was great to see. The service from Em was brilliant, she also gave a nice wine recommendation that was at the lower end of the price range which is refreshing. Will definitely visit again.

Delightful tapas. We had a nice variety of dishes, and staff was very attentive to gluten intolerance of one of our party. We especially enjoyed the tortillas espanol and baked mozzarella aubergine, as well as the garlic mushrooms and patatas brava.

Think it's permanently closed but Google business hours don't reflect this

Not professional at all. The waitress is more busy laughing with the comings and goings of her friends/family at the table, given the many hugs. Very noisy and not professional at all. These same people come and go and don't push the door, we are in the middle of a draft. It’s 1:39 p.m. the restaurant has just opened. We order a Royal couscous but we can only have the lamb couscous because there are no other meats. The couscous is dry, flavorless, lacks spices, the vegetables are raw and the mint tea is disgusting. We asked for water, the waitress spent her time laughing over the 4 glasses of water! Worst Moroccan restaurant. I advise you not to
