The food was absolutely fantastic, the best meal I've had in a long time. The service was great, the host was very friendly and explained each dish and drink as it arrived. We ordered the combination dish, all the different dishes were delicious. We would definitely visit again.

Exploring the outskirts of Leeds led me to discover the gem that is Corarima, a gluten-free, vegan haven in Wakefield. As someone currently navigating a gluten-free journey, stumbling upon this Abyssinian vegan/gluten free restaurant was a true delight.Opting for the combination platter for two was a journey through a sensory layer cake - a symphony of tastes and smells expertly presented. We embraced the experience, relishing the deliciousness with our hands, a practice met with the owner's delighted approval.The host, a charming and attentive soul, took us on a culinary tour, passionately detailing each dish. He was so warm, Friendly and attentive - without being over-bearing. The decor added to the warmth, creating a homely ambiance that made this dining experience extraordinary.In the realm of UK dining, Corarima has secured its spot among our favorites. It's more than a restaurant; it's a rare and complete experience, a testament to the charm and authenticity of Abyssinian cuisine.I wish we lived closer as we’d visit regularly for sure!

My wife and I had dinner at Coraima this evening whilst staying in Wakefield and what a delightful restaurant it is. The simple and authentically decor provides an instant relaxed atmosphere.We started with drinks. I had a Telba (a cold drink made with ground flax seeds) and my wife had a Beso (a cold, slightly sweet roasted barley drink). Both were delicious. For starters we shared a Beetroot Salad. It was very fresh with a delicately flavoured vinegar type dressing. As neither of us had had Abyssinian cuisine before, we decided to go for the 'Combination dish for two' to give us an overall taster of their menu. A large round slate plate arrived with nine perfectly neat individual dishes sat on an injera (a slightly sour flat bread made from teff flour) with a further six neatly rolled injeras and four small chickpea flat breads. Every dish was very well spiced and made with care. Delightful and moreish. By the time we had eaten the whole plate we were nicely full but it did not feel heavy. We rounded the evening with hot drinks of a Shay (a North African spiced tea) and an Abyssinian coffee. The coffee (and popcorn) is not cheep at £9.95, however, this is by far the best coffee I've ever tasted and a must for any coffee lover. We were informed that they roast the beans with spices in-house. Another sign of their dedication to present an authentic experience delivered with passion. Thoroughly recommended.Some additional information:1. The restaurant is vegetarian and gluten free.2. We had to pay a £20 no-show deposit when making the online table booking the day before, although, this has become, understandably, quite common for independent restaurants.

Visited for the first time this week - so impressed. Received a very warm, genuine welcome to the restaurant, which is well presented and spotlessly clean. The menu was explained and questions about the cuisine, which we hadn't tried before, answered. The food itself was delicious and good value.I think it's important to point out that we're all meat eaters but can honestly say that we would 100% recommend this place and can't wait to go back! Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

Great experience , service was amazing (sorry forgot the guys name) but you could see he is genuinely interested in providing guests with quality food and also a enjoyable experience from start to end. The explanation of the food and the little chats were appreciated. Also whilst the price of the traditional smoothies may see high , it’s a bottle with enough to go round 2-3 people and it’s really worth it. Anyway definately a place to try

Absolutely loved this place! We ordered the Combination dish between 3 of us. Wide selection of little dishes, served with plenty of the injera bread!!Ordered the Beso (tasted like a piña colada!) and the mango smoothie, both really nice and the Beso had so much flavour to it!Host was lovely and welcoming, had stories and information about the culture, the food and the coffee! Coffee was perfect end to the meal, accompanied by popcorn and an anecdote about the origin of coffeeWould love to go back soon!

Super experience! Not only the food is amazing, the service is outstanding and the place is just lovely. We really enjoyed our meal. Everything was super tasty and healthy, lots of vegetables and legumes. And of course, lots of their special bread. We even tried some of the cold drinks and they were really good, something like oat milk, but tastier. We will come back very soon, what an amazing place!
