Excellent food, healthy and tasty. Had the $45 pp which is fantastic value. Very full by the end. Nice range of wines to choose from. Friendly service. Bit noisy but that's because it's popular! Highly recommend this place. One of my current favourites in Adelaide.

True to it's meaning Faraja's environs and staff provided a unique,intimate and comfortable experience.The staff were relaxed, curious,warm and welcoming.The international cuisine provided catered for a broad range of dietary penchants and was fresh, wholesome and delightful to the taste buds. The share plates added to the intimacy and coziness of the eating experience.I say when you are on to a good thing stick to it! If you haven't experienced Faraja's you really should!

Had the deggustation for lunch between 3, matched with wines from the McLaren Vale. The salmon entree was great as was the roast pumpkin with goat cheese. The pork belly was good but the crackling slighltly beyond par. Excellent service, good prices.

Food was great but the service wasn't anywhere near as good as the first time we went there. There were only 2 of us and we had to follow up on a main because they didn't bring it out! Restaurant has a nice atmosphere.

Excellent menu with a range of smaller "pot" serves and larger meals so that mixing and matching and sharing is delightful. The quality of the food was fantastic. Simple, fresh, creative - absolutely first class. Our waiter was charming, knowledgeable and friendly, and knew exactly when to check our needs, and when to leave us alone. A perfect choice for a relaxed evening, with a casual atmosphere and no fuss, but with excellent food and service.

The waiting staff are excellent and really add to the experience. I've had lovely meals at Faraja and some dismal. The menu needs changing, and the presentation is often woeful! I had an African? inspired fish dish last week; served in a bowl, it looked unappetising and was only ok. Wine list really good and so it the decor

High quality food and good service. The team did good and were very pleasant. We had the 'Let us feed you' option ($58) and struggles to cope with the quantity - perhaps we should have bought someone else to help us. All in all a top of the shop experience.

Had to wait 15minutes to have order taken, Coffee was severed luke warm. 25 minutes latter the food turned up but my poached eggs were cold. I think some of the dishes need to be revised, wife's asparagus dish was bland by avocado dish should have been served deconstructed. By the time I got it was a plate of cold sloppy mush. Finally take a cushion the seats are bone hard.

Fantastic place to eat for anyone but especially those of us with coeliac disease! All but one item on the entrée/mains menu can be made gluten free and the dessert tasting plate is already GF - amazing! The food is high quality, fresh and tasty; waiters/ waitresses extremely helpful and the prices are great :-).

Faraja occupies a beautiful corner space, which can be enjoyed indoors or out in the courtyard. The service is friendly and efficient. An attractive selection of lunchtime specials for less than $15 rounds out the share-plate offerings on the main menu. An excellent wine list with plenty of wines by the glass. Day or night this is a lovely place and a local treasure.

We were surprised to find the restaurant devoid of patrons mid morning on a Sunday. It was a blessing in disguise to enjoy sumptuous food well presented with great ambience. I will return to sample their evening dining menu which listed a diverse range of options.

Food was sensational. There were three of us and we had two pots, three dishes and one desert to share. One of our party was a vegetarian who did like seafood and we found plenty of dishes to suit. All of the dishes were full of flavour with a lot of variety. Our young waiter was very attentive and extremely pleasant and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

Second time that i've been for breakfast at Faraja and I cannot fault it. It was a very cold and wintery day, but the fire was roaring and it was lovely and warm. The smashed avocado with poached eggs and dukkah is sensational.

Delicious food, wine list adequate. Really enjoyed the soft shell crab and the pork belly. Returned soon thereafter to try breakfast, equally as tasty, and great coffee.
