What our guests are saying
Food is soo good. We got the Super Messob Exclusive and loved every single item in the dish. The service was fast and friendly. I love that they’re open later than the other Ethiopian places in the city. The atmosphere was nice and the decor is cute.

Always love coming here! There are such great vegetarian options. The injera is super yummy and they come bring more if you run out. I also highly recommend getting the honey wine, it’s delicious!

The service was exceptional, the food was prepared perfectly and the whole spread was delicious!!! We did our best to clear the plate, sharing a two person meal between three and it was plenty. I will definitely return and highly recommend Messob for Ethiopian cuisine while you’re in Los Angeles.
