Authentic Ethiopian restaurant! Traditional plate offers an interesting palette of flavours and spices. The portion is huge, excellent for sharing and I really loved the fact that you can eat with your hands. We also tried their spicy lamb bowl, but we found the meat quite hard to chew and rather too salty. Honey wine is a must to tryđź‘Ť
We had a wonderful time at Gebeta Ethiopian Kitchen. Never having eaten Ethiopian food before we didn't know what to expect, and what we were presented with was a fabulous plate of colours and flavours. I had the vegan combo and my husband had one with meat. Both of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals.
The atmosphere of the restaurant is also lovely and colourful with great music playing. The service was also great.
Practical take on Ethiopian cuisine, first time I found an egg in an Ethiopian platter. Food was very tasty, injera also remarkable because it didn't break too easily (ask for it, they may assume you prefer rice). Portions are not excessive, in other restaurants you cannot finish your plate, possibly causing food waste.
Notes:
- ÂŁ20 Gebeta special is 60-70% vegetable mix and rest is meat, I would expect the opposite. If you are a meat lover go for a meat main course.
- Food is generally reheated which is actually a good idea for stews that gain extra flavours by resting. Plus service is fast, in other restaurants you may have to wait 15-20 minutes to get bland food
- prices are a little higher than competitors but Leather Lane is a popular destination and it is close to wealthy legal and jewellery districts, business costs will be higher than in zone2
My son and I had the 2 person non-vegetarian meal. It was delicious and filling. Very good service also!
The food was absolutely amazing and the service was also brilliant. We’d made a 9pm booking and when we arrived, the restaurant said they were closing soon but they’d still serve us. I’m so glad they did because it was incredible!
Dined in and had a vegetarian sharing plate - delicious food, generous portion with Ethiopian beer to boot. Great experience and will 100% return. Their stall in Leather Lane market is one of the best.
Stopped here on the way to Craft Beer Co on a Thursday evening. Food was very good with a great selection of Vegan and Vegetarian options. Additional plus that they have Ethiopian beer. Absolutely recommend to eat here.
Food to die for! Plant options abundant. Ethiopian coffee and wine. Fantastic place to eat and entertain. Recommended!!!
I’ve been craving Ethiopian food for a very, very long time and this spot was perfect. Absolutely delicious traditional food and great service. The one person portion can actually feed two in my opinion— I asked to have the rest packed for dinner! True comfort food with perfect spice and seasoning in a lovely atmosphere. Will definitely be coming again.
This food was absolutely delicious! We loved it! And the honey wine was so good we bought a bottle to bring back home.
