Zeret Surprise

The 'undisputed benchmark order'—a massive communal platter described by critics as a 'spectacular spread' of meat, dahl, and salad served on a 'soft bed' of spongy injera bread under a traditional mesob cover.

Strong, consistent praise across multiple sources.

Beza

Ethiopian · ££ · Elephant & Castle

76Signal

Start with

Mixed Platter

The consensus best strategy is to 'get the lot'—a colorful array of every stew served on injera, sized specifically for your group (1, 2, or 4 people).

Strong, consistent praise across multiple sources.

Lalibela

Ethiopian · ££ · Tufnell Park

Start with

Ye-stom Beyaynetu

A vegetarian platter where the tender, moreish lentils and salty peas 'went down a treat', accompanied by a standout coarse, fluffy, and nutty puree of chick peas.

Well-backed by reviews and repeat mentions.

Queen of Sheba

Ethiopian · ££ · Tufnell Park

Start with

Zilbo Stew

Praised for its tender strips of lamb and a heady, well-balanced mix of ginger and garlic.

Well-backed by reviews and repeat mentions.

55Signal

Start with

Vegetarian Combo Platter

Reviewers highlight this as a favorite, specifically praising the "lentil stew and split pea stews" and noting the "tangy salad was a nice contrast."

Useful signal, but still lighter than the standouts.
