Often I get boored with the normal selection of foods like hamburgers sushi pizzas…read more.. But a couple years ago my friend told me about this Ethiopian cuisine called "Injera". So I tried it and absolutely loved it! The spicy strong flavours, meaty sauces and unique smells alone is making me hungry as im writing this... Now Ive been to 4 out of 5 Injera restaurants that I know of and Lalibela had it all. The best Ethiopian food in Stockholm, thats my opinion. Great food, cool atmosphere, good prices and friendly staff. I had a lovely time and will be back again soon. Desserts could have more alternatives but other then that 5 stars:)

When I asked I wanted a selection of various items, she recommended I get the Beb'Ainetu--the selection of spinach, curried potato, yellow lentil curry, lamb curry and chicken curry with egg on the Injera (think tangy, fluffy-spongy pancake) was irresistable. Yes, the food takes a while to emerge. So treat yourself to a languid meal and savor the love with which this spectacular food is made. Here's a pro tip: eat ONLY with your right hand and fingertips. Do not lick your fingers. Flick excess food and sauce back onto your platter. Pick up some Injera with your fingers then tear it with 1 hand by grasping it between thumb and fingers and pushing away with index finger. Then plop the piece on pancake on the food you desire to pick it up.

When I visited, the restaurant was packed with mostly Eritreans which is a good thing since it shows the authenticity of the food. I had issues communicating with the hostess who could not understand clearly my American English. I was lucky there was a table left and was seated quickly. The menu is in Swedish. I used the Yelp app to view the reviews, tips, and pictures of the food. I ended up trying the lamb with injera. It took a while to get it, but when I did, it was God sent! Be prepared to use ur fingers. They also have a board by the bar with all the specials for the day. Great food overall. I'll come and check this place out again.

The huge variety of dishes includes a lot of vegies options... I always go for meat and I also had a lot to pick from. The lady explained every dish so we could chose :-) This is the place to come if you want to try something different with a small group (so that you can try everybody's food) as long as everybody is ok with spicy!!

Flavorless and cantine quality. I am Ethiopian, I know how the food should taste like. Take out: It is possible but you have to pick it up yourself. If you are considering ordering, make sure to order single dishes. Because of the large company at home, we ordered, amongst other dishes, a mixing plate - Beyayneto, meat edition. In addition to including an unrecognizable minced meat dish (for spaghetti sauce?), all small dishes were cramped into two boxes and thus, were literally mixed! The doro wet, siga wet and beg kej wet were all mixed in a tiny take out box. I know, all food eventually mixes together in my belly but I would like to be able to distinguish the different dishes before it reaches my belly. Atmosphere: Probably the coziest Ethiopian restaurant in Stockholm if you manage to come in a company large enough to secure one of the two wooden gojos (Ethiopian mud cottage from the country side) built indoors. If not: The restaurant has two sections: the gojo-section and the dining hall section. The latter is as charming as a hospital cantine. One star for the atmosphere in the better section, one for the food.

I had the traditional beyeayenetu with injera and different stews and vegetable mixes. My favorite was the spinach mix but I also loved the lentil stews. This place is great and the staff is very friendly. I wanted to try one of their Ethiopian beers but unfortunately they were out of all of them. I guess they finish pretty fast since they probably are specially delivered from Ethiopia.

We were not told to get our own water or bread (it's on a side bar near the entrance). There was no one in the restaurant except two people already finished eating, yet it took 45 minutes to get our food. Two people came out of the kitchen and were loudly arguing while sitting at a table next to us. One was wearing an apron and then finally went back in the kitchen after I kept looking at them with annoyance. Too busy arguing to make our meal apparently. I believe they completely forgot about us or making our food. Service is abysmal. Not once in almost an hour did anyone come to check on us or tell us our meal was delayed or tell us to get our own water. The food was good, not great. Fries way too salty.

It's a vegan place and the diversity of the customers is really different. If you are a vegan, hipster who does CrossFit this is the perfect place. The restaurant wasn't bad but honestly it felt to much of a political place for me. I want a place where I can relax and enjoy the food and the environment. It was to much of ANTIFA, communist and hipster vibes for me. The place is very small and it can be tight. If you want cheap vegan food that tastes ok then this is the place for you or if you just want to try something new.

The food is nice and the prices are very neat. There is even a discount for takeaway. On top of that this place is also the only (?) place in town where you can gulp down a Tusker! Every time I drop by tell myself I should go for just a drink one day, but that has yet to happen. This summer they have opened up an outside bar at the corner of Sturegatan/Skolgatan. They also have an outside veranda on the back of the restaurant.

I was really hoping the only place in Uppsala that offers Ethiopian food would've been better…read more Unfortunately this place is a mess. Yes, the owner is really nice and the decor is very attractive, but that fails to makeup for all the bad. The injera is not really injera. There is almost no fermentation...it is basically tasteless bread made spongey (somewhat like real injera) with some kind of leavener instead of fermentation. Honestly, it feels like it has purposefully been done that way to cater to non-Habeshas. Injera is an acquired taste, I give you that but the fermented injera really complements the sauces well, you miss that whole experience here. The restaurant is really busy, but the crowd here is mostly white, not one Habesha (Ethiopian/Eritrean) was seen. Usually, if you have no natives eating their own cuisine at a restaurant it is a good indicator something is off. The prices were very high, especially considering the small portions and the quality of food. The sauces and meats were seasoned decently, but nothing special. There is a berbere sauce that the restaurant offers that is quite delicious though. There is a nice selection of alcoholic beverages and the wait staff is attentive and helpful. When we went the card terminals were down and we were not notified ahead of time (we had to wait 15-20 minutes while the staff repeatedly ran our pay cards). We finally had to go to an ATM to withdraw cash to pay, this soured our experience more. Our time was compensated with a candy for each of us. :/ Final verdict: way over-priced, inferior injera, decent sauces, but good service and decor. Will not be going back. Honestly, make the trip to Stockholm instead (New Mama Africa, Gojo, and even Ethiostar would be better).

They offer a Cellar List of over 100+ Bottles and a very Special Tap List as well. I enjoyed two beers that are not available in the American market, one from Mikkeller and the other brewed for a local Wedding in 2014 by Brouwerij Alvinne. It is a very bright and eclectic venue with the bar and walls decorated with neon signs and photos. The lights are dim to give you a romantic, easy going vibe. I unfortunately wasn't able to enjoy lunch or dinner here but their menu looks fantastic with many Vegan / Organic Options. When the owner-general manager is the bartender, it makes for a positive experience! I hope to visit Babajan for a meal on my next trip to Stockholm.
