    After a hot-long-day of playing tourist in London, we decided to eat Ethiopian food per my…read morebrother-in-laws request . Not knowing where to go, we asked our friend "Yelp" to recommended a highly rated place...so we ended up at Mosob. The restaurant is decorated with artifacts from Ethiopia. It has two rooms, one with a regular dinner table and another room with traditional table (shorter table almost close to the ground) if you want the full experience. They serve different sets of trays, with choice of meat (lamb, beef or chicken) and vegetables. Each sets comes with 2 sets of rolls and 2 types of dips for the rolls. The trays are served on different sizes depending on your group size. Some of our orders came with their house salad with really good dressing, but I'm not sure if it came with the tray. If you want your food spicy, you have options to include that with your food. I also ordered their St. Michael's beer and it was a refreshing and perfect pair for my dinner. The service in this restaurant is amazing! The owner, Ben, gave us the introduction of what kind of food they serve. He was such an excellent host and that made our experience extra special. He showed the kids how to write their names in his Eritrean language and asked the kids to draw something for him so he can put it on his wall. That definitely entertained them while waiting for our food. I'm extra thankful of him for being quick on his feet when my daughter had an accident, hitting her head, while we were eating our dinner. If I'm going back to London, I'll make sure to stop by in this restaurant. Great food, good host= great experience.

    It's yummy food but we don't like the coffee it's a little bit burned…read moreThe waitress she was as a family gives service Thanks mesob

    This is going to be a review in progress as I inevitably dine again and again at Abyssinia…read more The interior is plain, filled with hanging pictures depicting religious scenes in the Tewahedo and Coptic traditions. There aren't many seats and the lighting is not going to impress anyone, but that isn't necessarily the point of Ethiopian food. This is where you go either to try something new or pig out with people close to you (it will probably get messy!) Everything you order is served on injera, a sourdough flatbread made from teff flour. Weirdly enough, if you've been to franco manca, you may notice some similarities in terms of dough. Like franco manca, you can also eat preposterous amounts of food with injera before keeling over, particularly compared to doughs that prove for ages. The traditional dishes of this cuisine are spicy, and abyssinia doesn't pull any punches. This is up there with the best ethiopian I had growing up in the D.C. area. You have a mix of stew dishes (wot), lean meat, and delicious vegetables. The vegetarian selection is 13.00 quid and is a big portion. The main reason not to miss out is the pairing. The spice of kitfo can get overwhelming, but with recourse to sweet lentils and tender carrots, your sweaty struggle will lead you to transcendence. The biggest limiting factor here is how many people you bring! To try a sizeable portion of the menu (you must get one variety of tibs, alicha wot, and a kitfo!) you really need 3 people. 2 can probably work if you are ravenous. Over three visits, not a single dish has failed to impress. Freshly ground spices and really powerful flavours. For three people, you can pig out for about 11 pounds a head. Plus it's BYOB. So go!

    I am truly delighted to put this place on the [yelp] map. Everything about this little tucked away…read morebasement restaurant from the humble proprietors, delicious food, amazing prices to the cosy interior generates a wonderful atmosphere. I was brought here by a[n Ethiopian] friend who claims this is the most authentic food he's discovered in London, I cannot pretend to have done such extensive research myself but I certainly enjoyed everything we sampled here. Generally, I would always recommend sharing platters anyway as a way to try as many things as possible and at Gojo, for only £8 (!) they are an absolute steal (easily feed 3 people). They arrive with a splayed injera (pancake-like bread with a porous texture to absorb all the flavours and spices of the accompanying dishes), onto which various curried lentil, chickpea, spinach, green bean and cabbage stews are served. There is a vegetarian, meat and fish option, but extra or alternative dishes of any variety can be ordered to accompany the feast. Additional rolls of injera are used as edible utensils (and appear to be delivered from a bottomless supply), and the whole meal experience is enhanced by getting to scoop up large juicy morsels of food (dipped in chili powder if you're brave enough!) and eat everything with your hands. One of the most interesting dishes was a sort of minced, seasoned beef tartar, which, if you're a little squeamish about can be cooked longer to brown it up. My favourite was certainly the cold curried lentil salad served in the middle of the sharing platter. Our hostest was so generous with all the serving portions, and threw in some additional complementary salads, that embarrassingly we hugely over ordered so left with handsome take-out boxes stuffed to the brim for tomorrow's feedings... Also I have no idea how I have got his far into the review and not even mentioned that this amazing institution is also BYOB! WITHOUT, I repeat, WITHOUT a corkage fee. Absolutely fantastic. Be sure to round off your delectable feast with a coffee ceremony, or spiced tea. I truly recommend Gojo for small groups who want to try something different and experience a low-key, but certainly vibrant and hospitable evening.
