Authentic Ethiopian food. We were boating London and my daughter-in-love wanted some authentic Ethiopian food. This spot hit all of her check marks. The food was hot and delicious. I really loved the Derek tibs. They had the Shiro wot, dork wot, and awaze tibs and they said every bite was awesome. If you are in town this is a definite win. Note the place is small and "quaint" nothing fancy but good

Great service and amazing food! It was my first time eating Ethiopian food and I'm hooked.

I just ate here on my last night in London and I wanted to boost the signal because it was delicious. I've had a tough time getting enough vegetables into my diet while traveling, so I got a mixed vegetarian platter with spinach, cabbage, lentils, and another bean/split pea dish and it hit the spot! 

The staff are very hospitable. It's clear they're used to explaining what Eritrean food is and that you eat it with your hands, so you could come here if you've never had it and they would be happy to explain. Because of Ethiopia's history with Italy they also serve Italian desserts, but I didn't try them because I was too stuffed from the injera.  

I didn't give it five stars only because it's not climate controlled so it was a little warm when I came in, and because there was some difficulty getting a mixed platter (they won't alter the set menu offerings, not even to halve the for a solo diner, and neither I nor the waitress realized there was a mixed platter option, so she was trying to help me order a few 1/2 portions...but all was resolved). The food is solid, the place is friendly, and it is definitely worth a stop in!

Mosob is a family-owned Eritrean restaurant. The employees are from Eritrea and are incredibly friendly. Dining there feels like you're dining with old friends. The servers are eager to talk about Eritrea and will take the time to help you decide on a dish. 

The food is served family-style on a large crepe and is eaten with your hands. Everything from the lamb down to the pickled veggies were delicious and full of flavor! The dish was so huge, I was able to eat leftovers for the next 2 days. The server told us, it's usually better the next day anyway, because the crepes soak up all the flavor. (It's true!)

A very unique cultural dining experience worth going out of your way for. Mosob has me hooked on food from that region now. If only there were more places like this back home!

After a hot-long-day of playing tourist in London, we decided to eat Ethiopian food per my brother-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.

Do not just walk by this spot! We were visiting London and new to the area, and decided to opt for something other than the British pub. Sooo glad we did! We stepped in to find a quaint and thoughtfully decorated Eritrean restaurant. Our server greeted us warmly and led us to our table. We enjoyed one of the vegetarian platters for two, and it was perfect! Everything was absolutely delicious and the conversation with the family who owned the establishment really made us feel at home. Genuinely couldn't have asked for a more perfect evening. Thank you all! We will certainly be coming back!

Authentic Eritrean food. Would come back again if local. Amazingly flavorful falafel that was complimentary and loved the vegan meal. Husband enjoyed a Tusker Kenyan beer as well. There is a room with typical Western seating and one with Eritrean seating in the back.

Absolutely love all the food here. I've been back many times and taken a lot of friends over. We love the large sharing plates. Our vegetarian friends too have been quite happy with the options available and the kids LOVE their gelato.

If I'm being honest. One of the sharing plates is actually good for even 3-4 people. But its probably because I'm a sucker for their spicy Qategna and the timtimo rolls, (injeera stuffed and rolled) and can't help ordering those too.

For a group of 3-4 people, I'd recommend getting the mix of rolls as a starter and one of the large sharing platters, because you get to try a variety of dishes. If you have a large appetite, then budget one sharing platter per 2 people. But if you have kids or a small eater in your group, it can go much further. We have never been able to clean up an entire plate between 2 of us.

The sharing plate is a combination of injeera, a dry dish, a stew, a vegetable dish and lentils, that are available in various combinations. I think we must have tried everything on the menu by now and have loved every single dish. Whether its beef, lamb or chicken, the food is just amazing. The lentils are lovely and I'm surprised at how good they make green leafy vegetables taste - without adding cheese! Can you believe it?

The service is very good too. If you arrive early and it isn't too crowded, the guys at the counter will have a lovely chat with you and answer all your questions on Ethiopia and Eritrea and how Eritrean food is so different from Ethiopian in spite of sounding and looking similar (hint - the Italians had something to do with this)

There's traditional style floor seating in the inner room which is great for drinks and snacks. But we prefer sitting in the outer room at tables for the main meal, so we can overeat and stuff ourselves silly.

Do try the local liqueur : Cocalime made from green lime, mint and coca leaves, its a very interesting drink. I love having it as soon as I arrive, though its mostly consumed after a meal. Or try the cochalime in the Sexy Mosob - a mojito style drink with cachaca and cocalime
