Merkato Restaurant

Merkato Restaurant is an Ethiopian restaurant on Caledonian Road, named after the famous Merkato market in Addis Ababa -- the largest open-air market in Africa. It brings the bold, slow-cooked flavours of Ethiopian cuisine to N1. Halal throughout.

Ethiopian dining centres on injera -- the large, spongy sourdough flatbread that serves as both plate and utensil -- topped with a sharing spread of richly spiced stews and salads: doro wat (chicken in berbere spice and boiled egg), misir wat (red lentil curry), tibs (sautéed lamb or beef), and mixed vegetarian platters. Everything arrives family-style at the table, ideal for sharing and exploring the menu together. Open daily.
