Mosob

A group of friends and I went to Mosob on Saturday night - what a great experience. The staff were extremely friendly and the food was excellent. We had the private room out the back which was perfect for a large group. The drinks kept flowing and the staff were on hand to answer all our questions and to provide advice on what to order to satisfy everyone's wish list. I would thoroughly recommed this restuarant and will definitely be returning again very soon.

Decided to take a gamble on Eritrean food based on the good reviews. Went last night and really enjoyed it. The service is genuinely friendly and personal in a good way. I'm glad we tried something different and we'll be back - possibly with the kids who will love eating with their hands! A great local restaurant.

I was asked to take a client out for dinner and wanted to take her some place she would also remember and took her to the Eritrean restaurant Mosob. The service was lovely, being new to the Eritrean kitchen all was thoroughly explained, and so was the food and the drinks!!! My client still talks about this night out.

In an attempt to give a balanced review I tried to think of both pros and cons for this place. But I have to say, I can't come up with a single 'con'. The food was absolutely fabulous (recommend the Qatengna rolls and Zigni lamb stew to those who like it spicy). The host was very friendly and informative and made the whole experience so much better. The icing on the cake was that it was all SO reasonable! Starters are around £3 and mains around £8 and in generous portions - we couldn't finish ours even though we wanted to. This is a family run business where they genuinely appreciate their customers and provide top notch service. I'm already looking forward to our next visit!

After having eaten at several Ethiopian restaurants in France, I was keen to try one in this country, and decided Mosob (although this is Eritreaen, NOT Ethiopian) would be a good bet. Indeed I was right! The choice was superb; I am a vegan, and some African culinary styles don't accommodate this very well, but this was not the case here; probably about half the menu was suitable for me (seasoned meat-eaters fear not, as there were also plenty of meat options!). The portions were very generous, and all mains are accompianed with injera, the traditional Ethiopian flatbread that defies description. All the food was delicious, from the starters, to the accompianments and the main course as well. If you like it hot and spicy, you'll be impressed, but similarly if you prefer milder things there are plenty of those too. Thoroughly recommended.

One of the best restaurant experience I've had in London. The owners are so friendly and create such a great atmosphere in the restaurant that I can't wait to go back. Food was delicious, filling and excellent value for money...couldn't fault it.

Top notch food and service. The service really makes the place - they go out of their way to make it a fun and informative eating experience.

Cost about £25 each for our table of 5 for a selection of starters & mains (more than we could finish) and a couple of Ethiopian beers each.

My only criticism was the charge of £1.50 for each dip with the starters (totalling £6 for the table), which I thought was a bit over the top as they were essentially just yoghurt / chilli sauce.

My girlfriend heard about this restaraunt through a friend but were not prepared for how spectacular this little place is. One really wouldnt expect it by its location and exterior but on entering we were welcomed with open arms by the wonderful owners. Its a family run restaraunt whoes owners come from Eritrea with whom we spoke a great deal. Their honest, genuine nature and welcoming banter really works to create an unparalleled friendly atmosphere. And the food!!! Delicious, and more importantly in this time of economic turmoil, cheap. I would recomend this little gem to anyone.
