Authentic Ethiopian and African flavors in Athens. Searching for “best Ethiopian food near me”? Visit Mesob for traditional dishes and warm hospitality.

Our Story​

Looking for the best African food in Athens? Wondering “Where can I eat authentic Ethiopian cuisine near me?” Mesob Ethiopian Restaurant in Kypseli offers a warm, flavorful experience straight from the heart of East Africa.

Founded in 2009 by chef Ashram, Mesob is more than just a restaurant — it’s a celebration of culture, connection, and culinary passion. Ashram grew up in Ethiopia, where she discovered her deep love for cooking through family gatherings, village weddings, and traditional ceremonies.

After moving to Greece, she was inspired by the richness of Greek hospitality and dreamed of blending the two cultures. She began cooking for local Ethiopian and Greek-Ethiopian communities — sharing injera, doro wat, and the soulful essence of Ethiopian flavors at events, birthdays, and weddings.

Today, Ashram’s vision is to bring authentic Ethiopian food to the world, one dish at a time — starting with Athens. Mesob proudly serves dishes made with traditional spices, slow-cooked meats, vegan specialties, and rich Ethiopian coffee — all crafted with care and love.

Whether you’re searching “best injera near Syntagma,” “African restaurant near Omonia,” or “Ethiopian food delivery on Wolt or eFood,” Mesob welcomes you to dine in or order online.
