Awesome food, I absolutely love their lamb with the fresh paratha/chapati (flat bread). The other food items are good too. Do try their chai and deserts. Its a small family run business. Highly recommend this place if you are in the area.

I came to Fatima’s Cafe never having tried east African food before and let me tell you… IT WAS LIFE CHANGING!!! I got the Ugali with Sukuma (add chicken), the Ethiopian Anjero Platter and the Samosas (all three types they offer ‘Beef, Spicy Lentil, & Mixed Veggies’). The collared greens (which I had never tried before as well) WERE INCREDIBLE… so much so that i bought a side order to go! The ugali and sukuma was to DIE FOR!! An absolute taste sensation EVERY bite and very filling!! If you are looking to expand your palate and try new cuisine, Fatima’s Cafe is A MUST in Worcester. The service was very inviting and you can tell the food is made with love at every step. Absolutely amazing and BLEW MY SOCKS OFF…AND I WAS WEARING SANDALS!! Thank you so much!! I will most definitely be coming back again with friends and family!!! ❤️

Best food ive had in a long time. Samosa are the best ever. The steak sandwich was phenomenally good. Vegetable’s were amazing I loves the eggplant & cauliflowers. Fatima was very nice and professional. We definitely will be revisiting this establishment soon.

We do not have african food in our area so we decided to go Worcester to try something new. Oh boy it didn’t disappoint.

The food was good, tasted like homemade food. We ordered the vegetarian platter, it was on the blander side, could do with some more flavor. What was disappointing was that the Anjero platter just contained 2 vegetables. There were multiple helpings of the same stuff – I was expecting atleast 4-5 different items rather of multiple helpings of the same items. The Samosas were better and the chilli dip with them was excellent.

Delicious, flavorful, and hot food! Super good! I had a beef stew with two vegetable stews and the bread to go with it. The beef stew was AMAZING! So flavorful and tasty! We also got three other dishes which were also all flavorful and tasted very good. All of the dishes were made right to order, nice and hot. The man taking our order was super nice and kind. I recommend coming here if you want really good food! They’re only doing take out right now, so just walk up to the window and order there or order ahead.

I’m often puzzled by some hyper laudatory food reviews of some other restaurant reviews.

We decided to give this place a try after reading the reviews and we were glad we did. I recommend coming here if you want really good, fresh and hot food! The restaurant is only doing take out right now due to covid, so just call in advance to place an order. The person taking our order was super nice and kind. We ordered veg. samosas and Veg. Ethiopian Anjero platter. The portion size is wholesome. Do make sure to get extra anjeros for the platter.
