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've been going to Zeret for years. Their food is always consistently high quality. I particularly love the shiro. I always go for the teff injera. It's so delicious. Cosy ambience and friendly welcome everytime.

    The food was absolutely fantastic and genuinely surprised me! The lentils were exceptional, and everything else was just as delicious. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, and the girl who served us was especially sweet. I loved the whole experience! I’m giving 4 stars for value instead of 5—not because it was overpriced, but simply because I would have expected a slightly lower cost for this type of cuisine, which feels like 'popular cuisine.' That said, the pricing is fair by London standards.
