The owner refused to accept the payment with yums pretending that he did not accept the reservation. At the end he made a discount of 23 chf and not 35 as per contract with the fork for 2000 yums.

The food is delicious, and the staff is super nice! It's a little place, so I suggest booking in advance. Don't expect a fancy restaurant, it's simple and authentic, and it's that's why we like it. 100% recommended

Great food, great atmosphere, and great service. I would highly recommend the Red Sea restaurant for anyone looking for an Eritrean cuisine type experience.

Down to earth, friendly restaurant tucked away in the centre of Lausanne - fabulous Eritrean food which gave us unfussy options for carnovores and vegetarians alike. Get ready to wash your hands, get stuck in, and wash it down with some excellent Eritrean and Ethiopian beers!

Really tasty food in an informal restaurant (good to go with friends or family, not really if you want a fancy place). Nice owners and with the discount, excellent quality/price ratio. We will come back!
