Charlie Denton2025-08-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sorry to have to give a negative review but we didn't have a good experience here. The food was cold and fairly tasteless compared to a lot of the Ethiopian food I had in the past. Maybe we were just unlucky as it was a bank holiday and we ate fairly early evening but I was hoping for better, given all the other reviews here are very positive. Erik Porter2025-08-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Such a great addition to Camberwell. Better than other Ethiopian places I've tried. Food was tasty, filling and great value. The team were also all super friendly. Absolutely will be back.

A Taste of Addis in London: Unforgettable Ethiopian Dining For an authentic and utterly satisfying Ethiopian experience in London, look no further than this gem. It effortlessly earns its place as the city's best, thanks to its perfect blend of flavour, value, and warmth. Vegetarian/Vegan Paradise:The menu shines with an incredible variety of vibrant vegetarian and vegan options. Dishes are bursting with flavour and perfectly cooked. Meat lovers are equally catered to with fragrant Tibs, Doro Wot, and other traditional stews, all prepared with care. The kitchen's true skill lies in how they cook and season the food to underline its original taste. Spices enhance, never overwhelm, allowing the natural flavours of the ingredients to sing. It's deeply satisfying and genuine. The food is very reasonably priced, offering generous portions of high-quality, flavourful cuisine. It feels like a steal for the experience. Must-Try Coffee: Don't miss the very good Ethiopian coffee – a rich, aromatic ritual that perfectly complements the meal. The friendly service is a highlight. Best of all is Hannah, the owner. She warmly welcomes customers and takes genuine time to explain the food options, especially if you're new to Ethiopian cuisine. Her passion and guidance make first-timers feel completely at ease. This restaurant delivers everything you could want: outstanding, authentic food (with fantastic veggie/vegan choices), fair prices, superb coffee, and service that feels like visiting family. Hannah's personal touch elevates it from a meal to a memorable experience. Without a doubt, in my opinion, it's the best Ethiopian restaurant in London. Highly recommended for both seasoned fans and curious newcomers! Chris Hindley2025-07-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great Ethiopian food made with love! The vegetarian selection and the firfir were delicious. Excellent service too - friendly and attentive without being obtrusive. London has some good Ethiopian restaurants but this is the best. Louis Mayes2025-07-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best Ethiopian food I’ve eaten in London, very friendly and too much for one sitting so we even had enough for lunch the next day. Would highly recommend. Charlotte King2025-07-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Awesome veggie food for an unbeatable price! £26 for a meal for two.
