Tolle Erfahrung - Edit
Insgesamt eine kleine (vegane) Auswahl aber gut kombinierbar auf einer Platte. Als special kann man sich veganes Fufu bekommen.

Great eritrean food! - Edit
After having tried another, rather boring ethiopian/eritrean Restaurant in Frankfurt earlier, we - kind of by accident - ran into Savanna during our last stay, and that one definitely lived up to my expectations. Great food, friendly service, good location in the city center
Read morePros: Flavours, Good choice of food & vegan drinks (incl wine), Location

Beware of oil - Edit
Ethiopian/ Eritrean food. We got two platters of all vegan dishes served on a large injera with additional injera. Also ordered Bamya - okra dish. Additional Injeras at cost. Bamya was very oily. Not good for those with fat restrictions. Food tasted fine.
Read morePros: Food was tasty
Cons: Too much oil in okra, Injera was cold. Why?

Great Restaurant - Edit
I had dinner at Savanna and it was amazing. I had the combo plate and it was very big and all the dishes were excellent. The people running the restaurant make you feel welcome. It is beautifully decorated and a short walk from the main square in Frankfurt.
Read morePros: Great Food, Well Priced
Cons: I don't think they have an English menu.

Great Ethiopian food in Frankfurt - Edit
My friend and I shared the vegetarian plate for two (plenty of food in my opinion!). All vegetarian dishes are vegan. It was nice to be able to try all 6 of the vegetarian dishes this way. If you’ve never had Ethiopian food, you are in for a treat. The flavors at Savanna in particular did not disappoint. They also have affordable bottles of wine. Staff is extremely friendly. Wonderful experience!

Nice experience - Edit
We went there in a group and got a big platter containing all the vegan dishes they have. You can also have single plates and I kinda advise you to do, because I think the amount of food was not correctly sized up.
Read moreAlso be aware that there is no cutlery available and everyone is eating with their hands. Which is actually a pretty nice experience (albeit messy)! :)
The food itself is pretty good and reminds me a lot of Indian food. Vegetables in thick sauces eaten with a very soft kind of dosa.
All in all I enjoyed the time there but am not sure I will return. The food is not that special and compared to Indian food available in the city, I prefer the later.
Pros: Fun experience eating with your hands
Cons: Pretty expensive for the rather small amounts
