We were appealed by their great reviews and decided to give Ethiopian cuisine a try. Bunna cafe serves plant-based authentic feast and traditional coffee. Bunna means “coffee” in Ethiopian, so it’s definitely a must try. The option on menu is limited, but we are not familiar with Ethiopian food so we still had a hard time making up our decisions. The staff was friendly and explained everything in details. We got a Feast for 2 Combo and a cup of iced coffee. Their food was overall decent and the coffee was pretty strong. The staff recommended to use hand, as their authentic way, to enjoy our dish but we gave up and switched to fork half way. Our favorites were the flavorful Kale Salad and cre...
A relatively long day drinking session which started from Vernon Blvd ended at Bunna Cafe.. and one thing that stood out in-spite of all that binge drinking was the amazing and delicious food that we consumed (or inhaled) within 20 minutes of us being served with a delicious platter of Ethiopian delicacies listed on their menu. We washed off all that delicious food with a nice pint of their delicious Ethiopian beer priced at $6. The place is spacious, had a decent enough restroom, and service was absolutely excellent. Will definitely visit again when we feel for some fine Ethiopian food!
My husband and I love coming here, it's one of our favorite places, especially for brunch! We've brought most of our visiting friends to eat here, too. Bunna offers a delicious variety of vegan Ethiopian dishes. It is healthy, REAL comfort food, offering a change of pace from the many vegan places that offer less healthy vegan translations of American junk food. It's busy during brunch hours, but it's worth their tasty brunch menu and $5 drinks. It's cash only, but there's an ATM available in the back.
A friend recommended I give this place a try while visiting NYC and I’m so so so glad I did! I’ve never had Ethiopian food before and this was an amazing first experience. We ordered the sampler. It’s a good choice for first-timers. The server was very helpful. We loved most everything we tried. Didn’t especially love eating with our hands. Not authentic, but next time we’d most likely ask for forks. Wish this place was just around the corner so we could try everything on the menu! Highly recommend.

Stumbled upon this place very randomly. Decided one Monday night that I would give it a try. I’ve had Ethiopian food before and was really interested to see what plant based/vegan dishes would account to. I knew they wouldn’t miss with flavor… they didn’t! I never had cachaca until I was able to try the calpirinha( probably not spelled right
Been wanting to try this place for a long time! The ambiance was nice, they have outdoor seating as well. Food was good, I took off one star because I wish it had more flavor spice. We asked for spicy sauce on the side which made it slightly better. Thanks for the experience BUNNA cafe!
Loved it! Got the feast for 3 with extra injera and it was more than enough for 5 people. Loved the variety of flavors and textures and I didn't even realize it was vegetarian (vegan?? until a friend later told me. Would definitely go back. Service was okay.

Okay food. Average service. excellent lentil sambusas. Did not care much for the flavors of any of the dishes. I have had Ethiopian food many times and this one was a disappointment. Three stars namely because the lentil sambusas and mimosas were great!
Had a great time. We were a table of 7. Ordered two of the 3 person shared platters which was plenty to share. Food was fresh. The coffee ceremony was an authentic touch. Will definitely return.
