Lovers of Ethiopian cuisine and adventurous foodies will appreciate this bright, clean and modern restaurant in Camberwell that prides itself on its family recipes and dedication to authentic Ethiopian traditions. Zeret itself is a name that comes from a small village in northern Ethiopia, and the menu includes mostly chicken, lamb and beef stews made with butter, garlic and ginger served on pancake-like flatbread called enjera. All the food here is delicious, and the dining room is decorated with colourful placemats, potted palms and simple white walls. Perfect for communal/sharing meals with friends and family, the Zeret Kitchen has attentive staff and a relaxed atmosphere – don't miss the Ethiopian style chicken cooked with green chillies, herbs and spices.

    We didn’t know what to expect but from the reviews it looked fabulous. We were not disappointed. The food and service were excellent and we discovered flavours we had never encountered before. Highly recommended.

    One of my favourite meals out in recent times. The food was incredible, the honey wine was divine and the overall vibe of the restaurant was on point. 10/10 couldn’t recommend this place enough!

    I have been hunting for a good Habesha/Ethiopian restaurant since moving to London from Washington, DC, a city known by its inhabitants for its exceptional selection of Ethiopian eateries owing to a sizable diaspora community. Zeret was the fourth such restaurant I’ve tried in London, and it didn’t disappoint. Everything was delicious and the owner even offered me an additional side for free given my pointed questions regarding the menu :) definitely recommend!
