“i love this place!! tastes like home ❤️ great portions and lovely flavour, and a very cozy vibe. tucked away its so easy to miss but im so glad i started coming here. definitely recommend”

“Authentic Ethiopian food and still my favourite Ethiopian restaurant in London! The staff are always warm, friendly and attentive. The only reason for 4 stars is that I’ve noticed the portion sizes have unfortunately decreased over the past month. I hope this changes, as it’s otherwise a fantastic place that I’d happily recommend.”

“Lovely food and fast, warm service. We visited at 6 on a Thursday, we'd booked as we thought it would be busy but it was empty, good for us as we wanted a quiet family meal at the end of a busy day. Food was excellent, vegetarian platter for three was enough for two adults and one hungry teen. Starter of hummus was very good. Plentiful injera. Nicely decorated place, loved the Ethiopian dancing on the TV”

Customer Review Summary
Vegetarian platters such as the Yetesom Beyanetu are what reviewers return to most, with several praising the vegan and gluten-free options served on plentiful injera. Kitfo and lamb awaze tibs stand out among the meat dishes, and the mixed platter of wots, hummus, samosas and azifa also draws mention. Reviewers describe generous portions, fair prices and warm, friendly staff, and a few single out the ginger tea, the honey wine Tej and the traditional coffee ceremony. The room is described as light, airy and clean, with Ethiopian dancing on the TV. Two reviewers raise drawbacks: one notes a wait for the food, and a regular says portion sizes have shrunk over the past month. Others describe food that arrived promptly, and one diner says the meal tasted like home.
