Keren View in Akurdet

Really lovely food and such a nice owner. Highly recommend! Also amazing value!!

I went here for lunch today and really enjoyed the food. I tried the okra dish and the potato and onion dish with injera, followed by an Eritrean tea. As someone who’s half Ethiopian and loves East African food, I can vouch for this place! The food was well seasoned, the portion size was perfect and the service was great. I’ll definitely eat here again.

Will come back for sure!

London is always full of different types of cuisine and options for all tastes when it comes to restaurants. However, it is not always easy to find cute restaurants where food and service are both of high standards.This little spot in Holloway Road is really the gem of the crown for me: Meals are satisfying, very tasty and the staff are absolutely brilliant.If you like strong cacao drinks make sure to try Kerens cacao, it is strong but delightful.Oh, and the decoration is just adorable.

Amazing place with lovely staff

The service is 20 out of 10. It was cozy and the dishes are amazing. Try the banana cake. I dropped a pin to be able to find the place again. Really good

Portion is ridiculously small. Got a box of split yellow chickpeas with wholemeal pita bread, finished the actual main dish in like five spoons - and you got a bunch of pita bread left with nothing to dip in. The food itself is good, the staff is very friendly, but the portion is so small, its not worth the price. You finish it and are still left with an empty stomach.

Went in for lunch and the owner was so lovely. Made sure I left full! This was my first time trying the cuisine. I hope I’ll get a chance to go again soon

Great food and server. We had very nice dinner there

Amazing place! Food is very tasty and healthy! The owner and the staff very friendly! Highly recommended!

Went in and the place was just us! We had fantastic genuine service that wasn’t light speed but also not rushed, very attentive and authentic.Nice Eritrean beer and food! Well spiced and seasoned and left us filled nicely.A great first experienceWill be back with more people for sure.

Lovely food, friendly and welcoming

Enjoyed my visit here, very nice food, a warm and welcoming environment and the staff are really nice and friendly. Will be back soon!

This restaurant was wonderful and had such a comfortable and homely feel. The staff members were really sweet and kind. Food was decent - prices even better - good value :)

Went here for the first time today. Really delicious food with generous portions. Loved the decor too

Lovely little restaurant, great food. Want to go again sometime soon!

Amazing place, a local favourite. Fantastic warm and friendly service, great food on offer and good prices. Picked it up as a regular lunch spot.

I ordered brsen(brown lentilswith plain rice.The food is fresh,delicious and filling.The owner is very welcoming,warm and very friendly.Highly recommended.

Very tasty, hearty, nutritious plant-based food that is not loaded with oil, sugar, and salt like most restaurants. The place is cosy, and the owner is kind and generous; prices are fantastic value for money!

This place was an amazing introduction to African food. The dishes were flavorful and the price for amount is fair. The lady running this place is so sweet and attentive, it made the whole experience even better. Definitely give this Keren a visit!

Really good food and great value for money. The atmosphere is cozy and the stuff is really lovely. It felt like an homecooked meal that your mum or aunt would make. Definitely recommended!

Great Ethiopian vegan cuisine with great customer service. Real value for money

The owner is super nice, the food super tasty and the location super cozy 😊

Beautiful variety of dishes. I really enjoyed everything I had and the owner is really lovely. I’ll definitely be back!

The most delicious food and also the kindest people! The restaurant is filled with plants which is so lovely. The food is so amazing.

Friendly staff and tasty food

Excellent restaurant run by a wonderful kind hearted lady who really tries hard to welcome her customers. The most exquisite vegan food in North London at great prices. Fully recommended

Really wonderful home cooked Eritrean food, which Id never tried before but was delicious! The really friendly owner helped me choose a selection from the menu - had ocra, potatoes and lentils with Injera. So good!!

Very nice ambient place. Warm cozy food really great

Great food, good value and a friendly owner.

Absolutely amazing food, and the women running the show is so kind and provides incredible service. If I could give more stars I would

Dont miss this fantastic restaurant in Highbury - an Eritrean vegan place. Family owned and operated, this authentic spot serves up incredible food (including excellent options for sharingprepared by the lovely owner herself. In a time when its not always easy to find small restaurants like these serving traditional food, with incredible hospitality and humility, Keren View is an absolute gem!

Lovely staff and delicious food in good prices, thank you!

One of the best places in London according to food, atmosphere and service. Its modest restaurant with delicious East African vegan food, lady who manage the restaurant is such a warm, kind and very positive person. I and my friends are all under massive impression after tonight dinner there. Thank you and see you soon! :-)

Absolutely delicious! First visit last night after the Arsenal game (2-0 to the Gunners against ManU--yes!!). Im not Vegan. I love food. This was some of the best food Ive ever eaten. We had a 3 dish combo and had chickpea, lentil and okra dishes with rice. Amazing flavors. The owner (Im assumingwas very very nice. Great place, clean and inviting. Highly recommend you visit. Ill be going back!!

Amazing food and lovely people!

Lovely service and delicious meal I keep coming back

Good food and great hospitality. The owner is lovely

Wonderful family-owned restaurant. The woman who works the front treats everyone like nieces & nephews. The food is top quality Eritrean and every time I go, she brings out a surprise on the house for all the customers.

Went here for a friends birthday recently, having never tried Eritrean food before. The owner was really friendly and helpful and the food was amazing!!! The style of cuisine is perfect for groups (as long as you dont mind sharing!). The other patrons, presumably a local/regular group, were really friendly too and even let us taste some of the food they were having. If you are looking for some authentic Eritrean, vegan cuisine, look no further. We will definitely be back.

What a gem of a find! The restaurant serves authentic Eritrean food (all veganwhich caters for everyones tastes. Took a large group here and we asked for sharing dishes and we were served with a variety of foods alongside rice, pitta and injera until we couldnt eat anymore! Service was wonderful and homely (the food really was cooked with both love and careand the atmosphere was great. Would go back here for a couple night out or take a large group. Will be back in the area soon for this wholesome food! Very reasonably priced, too!

Ate in here tonight and it was such a peaceful and homely place to dine. The owner (I believewas really friendly and welcoming and whilst it’s a simple menu it’s really delicious and authentic. Will definitely return as a refreshing change to all the busy “junk food” vegan joints. Wholesome home cooked food!

The quality of the food is absolutely marvellous. We had three mains with ingera and rice, and everything was just delightful. And on top of that, everything is also very healthy. The hibiscus cold drink is a gem. Cant recommend enough this restaurant.

The best restaurant on Holloway Road. The food is incredibly authentic and SO delicious and the service is so lovely. It’s a very calm atmosphere - a place to sit back and relax. We will be going regularly.

This restaurant is a real discovery! The woman running the restaurant is amazing. She took the time to answer all my questions, gave me great recommendations and even an extra spicy sauce that was delicious! The prices are really good and the quality of the food amazing. It takes a bit of time to get the food out as all is cooked freshly on the moment. Since my first time there I kept coming back and it keeps getting better each time. Cant recommend it enough. And yes, its Vegan!

All I can say is amazing. Home cooked food by what I would guess is the mum in the kitchen and front of house is the daughter. It’s like sitting in someone’s living room, it’s not about the speed (it won’t be lightening as they are making it with a lot of love), but about super tasty food at a bargain price. Will be a new regular spot and I’m a crazy carnivore but this vegetarian / vegan food really hits the spot!

Incredibly tasty food, suitable for vegans as it serves typical Eritrean dishes (they are 100% veg). The menu can be both mild and spicy, depending on your preferences. The quality of the food is one of the key points of this restaurant, but the kindness of the owner and the beautiful atmosphere of the place are no less important. Its like being home, my girlfriend and I go there very often due to the "magic" that you can feel as soon as you get in. We met a lot of beautiful people in there and its always a pleasure to come back.

We were looking at the menu outside when a family came outside of the restaurant. The couple were very sweet and they had an adorable daughter who highly recommended the place. Food is fresh and homely. The hostess is very warm and welcoming. Good vegan options.

The food was healthy, authentic, made with the freshest ingredients and delicious. Staff were lovely. This is now my favourite restaurant! I strongly recommend it for any fans of vegan or vegetarian food!

This is a somewhat upscale Ethiopian restaurant, a bit pricier than most, with an ample selection of vegetarian dishes. The service is excellent and the hostess is exceptionally warm and welcoming. We had the vegetarian special for two and the food was well prepared & presented in traditional style on a large platter with injera. Theres a large selection of drinks, and notably it sells uniquely Ethiopian, traditional, homemade honey wine, which is well worth trying.
