  “East African food is my favorite cuisine in the world and I seek it out everywhere I go. The dinner we just enjoyed at Red Sea was exactly what I am always hoping for: flavorful, well-spiced, wide variety of flavors among the dishes and very generous portions. It is no exaggeration to say that everything we ordered: 6 vegetable dishes and the chicken stew, were exemplars among all of the East African food I've tried all over the world: the best of the best. I'm so glad we ate here on our first day in Swindon so we can go back before we leave in 8 days.”

  “Went to this restaurant for a family meal, staff was very rude, food come out with mould on. They then took the food back wiped it off and gave it back to me. I am absolutely appalled in my 35 years of life this is shocking. I highly advise you not to step foot in this place.”

  “Very delicious dishes! Kids were exited by spaghetti (we asked for non spicy). I recommend to order 1 spaghetti for 2 kids )))))) We ordered a big plate (2 pers) of different small portions of sauces and vegetables. It is a small island of Africa in the middle of England. Pleasant service and authentic music. Place approved!”

  “Lovely family run restaurant in Swindon, serving authentic Eritrean food. The food was delicious and portions were ample. We ordered the feast, which our family of four managed to polish off. Ambience is ok and the food more than makes up for it.”

  “Amazing food with incredible service. The food we ordered was very tasty and plentiful. We even had lots to take home with us. The lady we had helping us with our food, and drinks, was so friendly, attentive, and warm. She made us feel very welcome in the restaurant. Can’t fault the food or service, we had a great experience.”

  “If you like delicious food and a cultural experience, I think you will love this restaurant. I shared a mixed platter that had about eight different dishes. Each dish had different seasonings from mild to spicy hot and all were so tasty. The Eritrean beer, Asmara, was also nice. Many healthful vegetarian options of beans, peas, or lentils, also delicious dishes with lamb or chicken. You eat using injera bread, which is gluten-free, instead of cutlery. The outside doesn’t look like much, but the atmosphere inside is nice and our server was lovely and warm. My only suggestion is that I recommend that they add hand wipes or warm towels for your fingers before and after the meal (but of course you can just wash up in the restroom).”
