This place blew me away!

So many options for vegans! We got the vegetarian platter and it is SO much food! I came here so hungry and me and my boyfriend couldn’t finish it. We also got the lentil sambosas and I could eat a tray of them! So good!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Big portions, Shareable

Some of the best food I’ve ever had. If you have the chance to eat here (or eat Ethiopian food in general) I urge you to do it. Mesmkerem has wonderful vegan and vegetarian options. All of the food is extremely flavorful and delicious

Pros: Good vegan and vegetarian options, Good for non vegans as well, Delicious food

Vegetarian Sampler!

I eat here once a week religiously!
Vegetarian combo for one with Gluten free injiri is a must!

I don’t order anything else unless I add an avocado or azifa salad.

Delightful combination of flavors and texture with the combo. All vegetarian items are Vegan!

You will nourish your soul with this authentic Ethiopian food.

If you have never had it before picture the flavor profile of Indian/Napalese cuisine with an African influence.

Simply delightful!

delicious food loads of options!!!

I'm in town for the eclipse and we got many suggestions to go here. I opened the menu and was pleased to find everything in the "vegetarian" entree section was vegan not just vegetarian (there was a specification under the header) me and my mom thought the food was delicious and there was defiantly plenty for the amount we paid. Highly recommend!!!

Pros: options, friendly staff, nice atmosphere

Ethiopian on the South Side

Meskerem is definitely my favorite place for Ethiopian cuisine in the Lou. The Veggie Platter is the way to go and be sure to get the Lentil Sambosas as a starter. Flavors are amazing and the food is always delicious.

Simply the best!

I love this place! Whenever I'm in the mood to eat out, this place is on my mind. And I'm not happy that I can't give it 5 stars due to the fact that it's not 100% vegetarian (Happy Cow's rule, not mine). All of the vegetarian menu items (of which there are about 10) are also vegan, which is great. I love Ethiopian food, and this place never disappoints. Eating Ethiopian is very fun and social, and you should try it if you haven't yet. Certain items like the spinach or the green beans seem unique to their menu as opposed to the typical dishes you find everywhere, and they are all great.

Pros: Yummy Ethiopian, all veg dishes are vegan, you get to eat with your hands

Cons: not fancy, but who cares?

Eh.

Love Ethiopian food. I would not say this place is the best but it is probably the best in St. Louis. They serve the injeera cold which blows so ask them to warm it up for you.
