zemeta-ethiopian-restaurant Menu and Prices

26 menu items · 6 categoriesUpdated July 2, 2026

In Zemeta, eating Ethiopian food is not so much a rule-tear a sour injera with your hands, dip it in a lightly spicy stew, and a meal begins. The menu of this restaurant is not long, but everything is right: beef, chicken, and vegetables are stacked in layers on the Ingela, looking messy but eating smoothly. Suitable for people who want to change their tastes but don't want to be too arrogant. On the weekend, I invited a few friends to order a combination platter, and everyone tore the cake and dipped it in the sauce. It was quite atmosphere.
