Mesob Restaurant

The food was amazing. Really genuine ethiopian food! This is a family owned and administered restaurant. The owner was very polite and friendly. You shoulf definitely give it a try if you're interested in trying something not too common!

For those wanting to venture into Rome's ethnic cuisine, Mesob is a gem located in Pigneto, and is easily accessible from the 5 or 14 tram from Termini train station. Great Ethiopian food at a reasonable price and an exceptional host makes this an unforgettable experience while vacationing in Rome.

The food was fantastic and the service was exceedingly kind.

Intimate restaurant tucked in a backyard section off the main road. Very simple interior with traditional Ethiopian art and music playing on their stereo. Food was very good! A welcome change from Italian fare. Service was top-notch, as our host explained everything extensively, was very attentive throughout. Highly recommended if you're ok to make the journey out to this side of town!

The best place for authentic Ethiopian food. I have never been disappointed by this restaurant. They use high quality ingredients and cook it to perfection. It is not expensive and provides good value for money. The owners are extremely friendly and lovely people. If you haven't been here you must find time to visit this restaurant

I was in Rome for a couple of weeks and visited most of the Ethiopian and Eritrean restaurants in Rome during my stay. I can honestly say that the food from this restaurant was very well made, delicious and reminiscent of an actual Ethiopian ethnic dishes. We had a great time and service was fantastic.

Very friendly owners. Tasty food with abundant quantity. Very gracious to call for us a taxi service and offer an Italian liquor shot while we wait for the taxi. We were very much pleased to say the least.

Great experience! The food was delicious and service was wonderful. This was my first experience with Ethiopian food and I was impressed. Not only is it good food but a great social experience with friends. Even though Rome is known for Italian food this is worth a try.

Living in Washington DC where there is a large Ethiopian community, I've had a lot of great Ethiopian food and Mesob is right up there. It may be easy to miss up a small driveway, but once you find it it's like walking into someone's kitchen. The host was friendly and accommodating and speaks English. We had the mixed vegetable plate as well as chicken tibs. I was disappointed that they were out of Doro Wot because I like spice and this was 7/8 o'clock so get there early if that's what you're looking for. The lentil dishes were especially good but I missed the heat that I'm used to at home. I hear that Europeans are less tolerant of spucybso perhaps Mesob tones it down for their usual customers. Be forewarned: the restaurant switched to CASH ONLY about a week ago according to the proprietor which would have been nice to know before I pulled out my credit card. All in all, I would definitely return on my next trip to Rome.

A little off the beaten path but defiantly worth a stop if you're looking for a great meal in Rome. We started with an order of falafel and lentil sambusa. Each were freshly fried and the best of their respective variety that I have ever had. Then we shared the doro wot and vegetarian combination. The whole meal was extremely flavorful and an excellent value in a city where overpaying is easy. To top it all off, the owners were extremely kind and called us a cab back to our hotel after the long walk to the restaurant. Overall excellent experience!

Tucked away in a more urban area of Rome, this food was a great break from European cuisine. Great service, EXTREMELY friendly waiter and cook that talked to us. Fluent in English, great flavorful, authentic food. Much recommended. Very reasonable price as well, my cousin and I were stuffed for 29 euros

Mesob Best Ethiopian restaurant in Rome. I loved the food and the people serving. We stayed in Rome for two weeks and this is by far the best Ethiopian restaurant.
