We were then brought a selection of dishes which we added to the injeera ourselves. The vegetarians in our party were given their own, smaller, injeera.

More food than we could eat and the tea came to £11/head including service charge.

[[Kake]] and friends visited on a Wednesday evening in October 2014. We went for the mixed selection (about £28) which included meat and vegetable dishes. Our waitress told us that would be enough for three people. Since there were five of us, we also had an order of tsome beye-aynetu (assorted vegetable and lentil dishes; £7). Along with a drink each (some soft drinks, one glass of wine) we paid just over £11/head including service for slightly more food than we could eat.
There was one female toilet. I can't remember if there were stairs to enter.

Accessibility: A step to get in, and two more steps to the dining area. Once you're in, there are no further steps to the toilets. The ladies' toilet at least is very narrow.

One of three Ethiopian restaurants on Caledonian Road, north of Kings Cross. secretlondon went here one Monday night with a group from College.
