Mosob Bar & Restaurant in Glasgow City

Fab food and friendly staff. I will be returning with more friends as a birthday celebration. I chose the vegan platter - the food was tasty - I normally eat meat, but wouldn't have missed it. Next time I hope to try the meat platter.

Three of us went here on a recommendation and we were not disappointed. Very welcoming staff who explained about the menu, explaining what each dish was and even adapted a dish for one member who was concerned it would be too spicy. We had meat samosa to start followed by Keiy Wot, a spicy beef dish and a mixed platter, which consisted of a couple of the meat stews and some vegetables, with Injera. All the meals were excellent with vibrant fresh flavours and it was an enjoyable experience to dine in the traditional way of this culture. The service was excellent. If you order the coffee be prepared for it to take about 20 mins to serve, but for strong coffee lovers this is a delight, served with incense and popcorn. I would highly recommend this restaurant and it’s definitely an ideal place for vegans, though none of us are, we still really enjoyed the food.

I have visited this Ethiopian restaurant a few times, all excellent. On our recent visit, we tried the mixed platter. A range of dishes, including meat and vegetarian options. As usual, this is served on traditional flat breads. It was amazing. The combination of the dishes, eaten on top of the bread with salad, was truly a feast. We ordered extra rice, which was great. However, to take this dish into the stratosphere, I would suggest the fries with the berbere spices. They are excellent. All in all, a wonderful meal served in a unique style. If you have never heard of this place or been, you have to try it. You won't be disappointed.

This is a real gem in Glasgow. Food was really good although takes a bit of getting used to without cutlery! Great for a social gathering.

One of the best meals I’ve had. We had the vegan platter and tasted things I’ve never tasted before. The whole experience of sharing, the explanation and finally the taste was just unreal. Don’t be fooled by the outside, go in for a few mates and I guarantee you’ll be incredibly impressed

Tasty spicy beef and veggies with a fluffy pancake njeera. Delicious. Lovely vibe and friendly staff. Great place to relax and feel well fed.

Relaxed friendly and very tasty food. Staff could not have been nicer and portions very generous. They even offer takeaway boxes for left overs. Good music and spacious place near Queen St train station

Just found out about this place recently, and very glad I did! Glasgow has been missing a good Ethiopian restaurant, and now has an excellent one. Food was brilliant, with plenty of vegan options. Service was friendly and helpful. The coffee at the end was unbelievable! Will definitely be back

So pleased to have stumbled across this place. Not the best kerb appeal and restaurant simple decor. The menu is different and seemed very traditional ethiopian. I has the vegan platter which was enough for 2 people. 6 dishes with 2 large pancakes. All very tastey and great value for £13. My wife had chicken Tibsi which she enjoyed, which was £10. Staff very friendly. Definitely recommend and will return.

Just decided to give this place a whirl for something different. It was very good we had samosas and fries to start followed by a couple of stews serve with the distinctive east African injera bread. The stews were not as spicy as I had expected but still very tasty. The African beer was unusual and good. Nice service well worth a visit.

Seems mad to say since it's so central but a hidden gem really. Had a work Xmas dinner out but I'll definitely be looking to return - great food!

I love Ethiopian food. If you're unfamiliar: it's injera (big fermented gluten-free pancake) which you tear with your fingers and use to scoop up various tasty vegetable and meat dishes. We chose the vegan platter, which had four delicious veg or pulse-based dishes and a salad, plus a lamb stew with spiced butter which was equally delicious. And we ordered an extra injera so we had one each. The seats are really comfortable yet the restaurant is very stylish and spacious. There was only one other diner on this Friday lunchtime, but apparently it's often busy in the evenings. There is a well-stocked bar on one side of the restaurant and a good selection of soft drinks too. We didn't quite finish our food and were offered a box for the leftovers. The bill came to £30 which is incredibly good value for a belly-busting lunch of excellent, freshly prepared food for two people. I would gladly eat here again.

Delicious! We came for a late lunch/ early dinner, and had the mixed platter shared between two, as well as an amazing coffee and delicious beef dish (we were quite hungry). Everything was amazing - from taste of food, presentation of food, quality of ingredients, speed of service and quality of service, all of it 10/10. Would highly recommend.

Amazing food, value and service. This really is a hidden gem and something a bit different. Well worth a visit for the honey wine alone.

Really delicious food and attentive staff. The toilets could have been a little cleaner but overall had a fab time. A real hidden gem.

A small door leads up some stairs to a large space where you are seated mostly in booths around the edges or some central tables. The lighting is subdued. There is some ethnic background music but it is not obtrusive and conversation can easily be...

We had a lovely dinner, the food as lovely and the staff were helpful and friendly. A true experience of a different culture. Only downside was that the restaurant was rather cool on the night. Well worth a visit.

A wonderful word-of-mouth introduction to a cuisine I’d never tried before right by Queen St station. Be guided through the menu by the staff and most definitely treat yourself to a bottle of mead (Ethiopian honey wine) after dinner. A brilliant experience all round!

We’ve had Eritrean food many times but this was one of the best meals we’ve had. It was fairly busy for a Tuesday evening but we were quickly shown a table. The waiter was busy so it took a bit of time to get our...

I didn't really know what to expect when a friend booked Mosob , what a great evening. The food was delicious. We had the vegan platter, as two of our group don't eat meat. The platter was amazing almost a piece of art with the...

Heard great things about this place word-of-mouth and headed straight there when on a visit to Glasgow. It did not disappoint. We went for a late lunch / early dinner and had the vegan platter for 2, a generous selection of delicious dishes and injera...

Worth seeking out. The door was closed over and made us think restaurant was closed but open it and head up the steep stairs to a large , open dining area. A totally different taste experience. We weren’t sure where to start as it was...

Enjoyable experience with unique food. Multiple flavours with meat and vegetarian dishes. Although I’m a carnivore, I definitely enjoyed the vegetarian component, and eating with your hands! The meat samosa appetizers, and both the meat and vegetarian combos were ordered Pleasant staff with quick service...

Really loved this.. food was delicious and plentiful, so nice to try something new, very affordable and staff really lovely. We will definitely be back again. Just wish we had more time to make room for dessert.

Food was incredible. Best I have tasted since I left East Africa. Restaurant interior is delightful and spacious. Staff were very friendly.

Lovely to come across something different. The food is spicy but not overly so and tasted great. Main dishes come with the gluten free bread and salad included at no supplement, making for a very reasonable night out, portions are generous too. Diners can opt...

Our first Eritrean meal and it was superb. An unpretentious entrance leads up a flight of stairs into a beautiful spacious and airy restaurant simply but tastefully decorated with woven Eritrean artifacts. We sampled the Lamb Zigni dish, flavourful spiced pieces of tenderly cooked lamb,...

Wonderful, slow cooked,, home made good. Healthy and delicious. Family run, grate staff. Highly recommended.

Wonderful meal at amazing price with very helpful staff who explain all about injera - and the various dishes delicious

We lived in East Africa and had a lot of Ethiopian dinners and the food at Mosob was the authentic stuff. Took my daughter and partner which had never experienced ethiopian food before and they loved it too. The coffee was superb. The staff was...
