I tried a variety of foods and they were all delicious and the staff were incredibly patient and kind. I will definitely be back. This is nice and close to the New Haven Union Train station.

The have a gluten free Injera option. I think it is called “black” when served gluten-free. Based on the servers explanation, this seems to be the preferred method as it tears easier. I have never had Ethiopian food. I was really really impressed with the flavors. This restaurant has set the bar high. I would definitely come again if I am in the area!

Winston Trope

Excellent menu with a wide selection of options including gluten free and vegan. The cocktails are awesome too, it's a great place to grab a quick drink, a quick bite, or to eat and chat for a long time

Here’s a polished version of your Google review: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ What a wonderful experience! From tasting the delicious food to immersing ourselves in the culture, everything was amazing. The owners and their family took great care of us, even with our large group! We tried several dishes from the menu, each one flavorful and authentic. A highlight of the visit was witnessing a beautiful coffee ceremony—such a special touch! I also appreciate that the restaurant offers vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options, making it accessible for everyone. Highly recommend this place for an incredible dining experience! Let me know if you’d like any tweaks!

Pricy vegan and gluten free options, however worth the prices. Amazing choices to make any special occasion even more special for the vegan gluten free folks. Owner is very nice. Top notch. Oh, and you even get a good sized fresh salad with your dinners. Will be back. 🧡

The New Haven location is one of my favorite spots to go for breakfast, lunch, or anything in between. Andrew is extremely kind and helpful, making the entire experience a delight. I am constantly thinking I have found my favorite thing on the menu and then I try something new, and the cycle starts all over! I am also celiac and they have a great selection of gluten free options. I couldn't recommend Life Bowls enough.
