Easily the best Eritrean food (from Ethiopia) I have ever had…read more My server spoke a bit of English and brought me an English menu. 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.

Happened to stumble on this restaurant by chance when I was exploring the Rhadhuset train station…read more Overall atmosphere and ambiance is great. Background Eritrean music makes the mood mellow. 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.

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 recently moved to the neighborhood and have been looking for a neighborhood haunt. We didn't…read morethink we'd find one but after meeting friends for a dinner this December, we decided our search was over. The owner of this neighborhood hook isn't only welcoming, but gave us extra food because they had it. With the best beer reccos and the grooviest of jams, they continue to win us (and our 85 Ib golden retriever) over time and time again. Honestly, the food is phenomenal and the drinks are affordable. Get the hummus!!

This Beer Bar is off the beaten path in Stockholm but definitely worth the adventure! The owner was…read morepresent during my visit and was very enthusiastic about his craft beer. 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.

Very nice experience for me. This restaurant is placed…read morecentral but yet almost hidden! We got there around 7:30 and the place was almost full but we got a table. I liked the dining area. Fresh, renovated, clean, airy and smoothly lighted, plus African music of course! Loved the food. Strongly spiced, keep yourself away if you are not a fan of chili and cumin. We got a mixed dish with beef, lamb, chicken and lentil and I fell in love lentil thing. Very special bread, nothing that I had tried before. I was not sure about eating with hand but it went well, a new experience! The winner of the night was the Ethiopian coffee. What a fresh and smooth taste! With touch of cardamom. Nicely served. & popcorn! Surprise! The noise level is lower than many other places. It was possible to talk without shouting. But if you are after a place to seat and drink, this is not the right place. You have a drink menu but no space as a "bar" And not to forget, very nice and friendly personnel, ready to explain the details on food and coffee for you, just ask.

I was here this weekend. It was very very crowded, which is a good sign…read more We booked a table before and were placed downstairs, where the ambiente was different (I think downstairs is also used for events because I saw some big spot lights on the ceiling) Either way, it was also good to sit downstairs as we could have conversations without having to scream at each other. Except us there were a few other sitting downstairs. Well, most of us had not eaten Ethiopian food before so we knew its gonna be different from what we usually eat. The staff was very friendly and quick with everything. So I ate lamb stew, which was severed with a small salat and bread. The bread was the coolest thing I have ever seen. It was flat like pancake, it had almost the texture of pancake one side had like the pattern of a sponge. Really cool. And mixing lamp and bread was very interesting. I am a person who doesn't like when I have bone pieces still connected to meat or any sort of remains of fat from the meat, which was the case. I am sure this is a typical way of serving the food also if my mum cooks turkish she does the same. So I am kind of used to it but not necessary like it. And one of my friends actually ask the waiter for something different because she couldn't eat it like that not because it wasn't good. It was good. But as I said some people are used to having meat neatly cut etc. Either way it was a very good experience. If you love love Ethiopian food I guess this is worth the visit.

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 place itself is very close to a lot of public transports... I was expecting it to be more pricey.
