About House of Habesha
House of Habesha sits within Kargo MKT in Salford's media-city. It's an Eritrean and Ethiopian restaurant with a solid 4.5-star rating from over 200 reviews. That's a good sign, suggesting consistent quality. Kargo MKT itself is a food hall, so expect a casual, active space. Unfortunately, specific hours aren't available, so checking before heading over is key. I’ve heard the injera is made fresh and the stews are rich. It's not a quiet, intimate setting, but it works for grabbing flavourful food in a busy space. It's also worth noting that access might depend on Kargo MKT's overall opening times. I'd love to see their menu online; that would make planning a visit much easier. Overall, it seems like a reliable choice for trying East African cuisine.
