About this restaurant

  • Neighbourhood gem
  • Good for groups
  • Charming
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.

    What an incredible experience! This Ethiopian restaurant completely exceeded my expectations. From the moment I walked in, the warm atmosphere and friendly service set the tone for a fantastic evening. The food was simply outstanding - rich, flavourful, and clearly made with love and authenticity. Every dish was a celebration of spices and tradition. I’ll absolutely be returning. I’s a must-visit for anyone who enjoys hearty, soulful food and a welcoming vibe. Highly recommend!
