Tasty eritrean food! - Edit
When you are in Darmstadt, unfortunately there are not many vegetarian restaurants with a big menu. But fortunately there is Baobab. Half of the menu consists of vegetarian food(maybe even vegan). You can also order a mix of all vegetarian options. The food is really tasty and the atmosphere is nice.

Really good food! - Edit
I was really positively surprised by the food as I've never really tried african cuisine before, but everything that's vegetarian is also vegan so there's a lot to choose from! You can get a mixed dish to try everything and get to try eating with hands using a form of savory pancake! The staff is really nice and the whole experience was quite fun, would definitely recommend!!

Really good food - Edit
They offer vegan starters and four main dishes that you also combine as one plate. I already went there a couple of times and I usually chose the combination plate. The food is really good.

cute place, good food - Edit
The food here is pretty good. I really love the red lentils. It's a cute place but it's quite small so you should call ahead to reserve a table.

phenomenal! - Edit
It is really phenomenal eating here.
Read moreThey even have a vegan dessert and everything is listed vegan.
If you wish to have something you are able to just ask for it and they will prepare it.
It is my go-to now :)
you are able to sit on the floor and dine on wonderful sheets

Teuer mit kleinen Portionen - Edit
Nette Atmosphäre, man sitzt auf dem Boden und isst mit den Händen.
Read moreSehr leckeres eritreisches Essen, aber die Portionen waren nicht mal annähernd groß genug für uns (kleine Frau großer Mann), so dass wir von einer Vorspeisenplatte Hauptgericht (jeweils für 2 gedacht) immer noch nicht satt waren.
Billig ists hier nicht, also war das echt ne Frechheit.
Pros: Sehr lecker, Nette Mitarbeiter
Cons: Teuer --> schlechtes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis, Viel zu kleine Portionen

Delicious food, great vegan selection - Edit
I am bias, because I love Eritrean food, so I have to give this restaurant a big thumbs up! The food was very yummy, prices decent (about EUR 7.50 for a main and 2.50-3 for dessert), and therefore the sizes also perfect to satisfy you without feeling stuffed. Super friendly staff and very accommodating for vegans. Also a very nice atmosphere.

Cons: Meat served
