Amazing food and great service! Also love the music playlist. Will definitely come back:)

The food was extremely delicious and great test of real Ethiopian food. Definitely by far better than what others in Europe can offer. Coffee was roasted for us live and served with popcorn which gave it a perfect end to our stay.

A smaller ethiopian restaurant with great ethiopian food. The waitress was polite and helpful. Overall very satisfied. We had "beyayinetu" a combination of different 'wots' made of meat and vegetarian dishes. Their ginger tea was also good. Prices fair for London

Very delicious traditional food with traditional sour injera and Ethiopian beer Habesha. This meal that we have is served for 3 people. Next time I will try Ethiopian wine. I believe it will be very fantastic. Agelgil is name of the traditional food container that is made of leather.

Amazing food. Very authentic interior. Very kind staff. The only issue I had it was hard for me to explain I wanted to leave a tip.

Fantastic food, flavourful and generous servings. The injera is just great and the service is hearty and welcoming. All-round lovely place!

This is a little gem tucked away on Caledonian Road. This is very much an authentic Ethiopian experience, the food is delicious and the coffee sublime. The restaurant is small and family run. The food is prepared freshly. The staff a lovely and try their best to make the experience memorable. However it is small so don’t expect the comercial homogenised service from a chain. It’s also lgbtq friendly.

Lovely authentic Ethiopian restaurant on Caledonian Road. Light and airy and clean, which I like as some Ethiopian restaurants can feel a bit claustrophobic. We ordered one of the vegetarian platters and one of the meat ones. That was plenty of food with some extra injera (pancakes) and one extra side dish. Bill came up to 15 per person which is great value. Food was delicious and the pancakes were very nice. Would recommend and will be back.
