"Gebeta, a slow Leather Lane spot with a steady stream of regulars, is a go-to for a casual dinner in central. Sit out front for grimy London charm meets alfresco dining and you’ll overhear conversations between local shop owners about their plans for the evening, while you pull apart at soft injera. Inside, beautiful murals cover the walls and decorative handwoven baskets are hung all over. Friends sit on the lime green banquette seating and couples take the window seat while they work their way through the satisfying platters. Order the Gebeta special for a nice mix of everything—the tender lamb tibs is particularly good." - jake missing, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley
