Habesha Village in Lambeth

Wonderful food and great service!

Brixton Village Market is home to an authentic and mouthwatering Osaka-style okonomiyaki restaurant with a fantastic atmosphere. I highly recommend it!

Food really mid, cute atmosphere tho. :/

Love this place... I go here with my son

The food was good but also we don’t know what Japanese food is meant to taste like tbh ( i would’ve added chili but ig that might be controversial ahaha). The waitress was sweet! And we were very warm so can’t complain! 💪

Decent okonomiyaki place, quick service sat on some small tables in the indoor market. The okonomiyaki wasn't the best I've ever had but was decent and flavourful

Really enjoyed the food here. Quite different dishes but good flavours. Was busy so be prepared to wait a little

Excellent place and good food … !!!

Visiting from the US, we had an amazing time here! The food was great and our server, Taku was knowledgeable and created a great atmosphere for us.

Was excited to find a restaurant doing okonomiyaki close to home. Was not disappointed. Very tasty.

Really great food in a relaxed environment. Service was quick and staff really helpful and friendly. Definitely recommended!

Curry udon tasted like a stock cube, service was slow, the outdoor seating freezing & we were told we couldn't sit inside despite empty seating. Staff kept trying to clear our one glass of wine when it still had wine in it, by the time I left my wine had had two different sets of fingers in it trying to take the glass. Very underwhelming!

The beef and kimchi teppanyaki was ok but basically a plate of beansprouts. The okonomiyaki was good, the prawn onigiri was quite funny cause it had a prawn on top and just rice inside. Overpriced for the quality of food served.

Great food, good service, main dishes fantastic, only way to improve would be the kimchi could be better :)

Christina served us, she was very informative and helped us with our order. The food was incredible. I would recommend the Okonomiyaki, it was bangin

Good food and reasonable price. The staff are friendly and courteous, but the service was incredibly slow this evening. We waited for a long time for the order to be taken and about 30 minutes for drinks to be delivered. Food was also slow. It was quite busy, but not enough that the four people serving were that busy? We waited 20 minutes for the bull too!

There was a short line when I got there but they were clearing tables fairly quickly. The okonomiyaki are authentic, just like the ones I had in Japan. Their menu looks really good and has a wide variety. I was tempted to order five things. The prices are reasonable. 11 pounds for an okonomiyaki. The staff was really friendly as well.

Love this place. Such a solid Japanese with good vibes.

I went here for a late night snack and was pleasantly surprised with the best miso udon soup I’ve ever had. Highly recommend this place as the staff is friendly and the food is exceptional. Spice level is tasteful. The gyoza was also a delicious side.

Super place Thx for the lovely service Aswir

Unfortunately very let down by this place. The white wine was served lukewarm and every dish was bland and lacking taste. Very expensive for what you get

The food was 10/10, Amazing food and lovely stuff Cheryl was amazing. Would definitely go back again.

Cheryl was incredible, she is charasmatic charming and so friendly! My friend and i felt really looked after. And food was delicious, thank you to chef ashwin!

It was so delicious! The staff was also kind and nice ^^

Wonderful food and exceptional service. Hidden gem of Brixton

Brilliant spot, even better staff! A must visit in Brixton

Amazing food and amazing service. Couldn’t recommend more!! 3 of us. Had food to share - gyoza chicken dumplings, okra & crispy pork, beef & kimchi okonomiyaki, noodle special omu & special don(buri) mix. Absolutely fabulous. The staff are amazing too. So friendly & quick!

Wonderful okomomiyaki, bring Osaka to London 👍

The area near the entrance to Brixton Village is a bit suspicious, but once you step into the Village, you'll find yourself in a lively multinational world✨You can enjoy the flavors of various countries at affordable prices. I received ``fried favorite meat and kimchi'' and raw 🍺. I was able to enjoy the taste of Japan for the first time in a while. Is it the manager of Okan? The ``mom'' who seemed to be doing her best was giving encouragement to the young waiters. Highly recommended. I will drop by again.

Really good food. The udon was lovely.

The food was average, we had okonomiyaki and a noodle dish as our mains. The bill came to £60 for 2 mains, 2 non alcoholic drinks and 1 starter which seemed overpriced for what we got and the dingy look of the seating as well as the sticky and overused menus. However the service cannot be faulted and was brilliant.

Never had a bad meal at Okan :)

Miso udon soup was out of this world!

great food and service from akiko and takuma

Glad we stumbled across this in Brixton village. I’ve always wanted to try Okonomiyaki and glad I did. I tried the tofu with kimchi + egg which was really tasty. Thank you for the service Takuma!! Also really good atmosphere!

Really good noodles. The services waw superb, i will come back. Thanks u

I had the wagyu okonomiyaki which was absolutely fantastic, will come back to try the other combinations. The overall experience was great!

Great Japanese find in Brixton Village. Highly recommend. Takuma was a lovely guy!

I would have given 4 stars as the food was pretty tasty, but our waitress was so rude the whole evening that I'm struggling not to give 1 star. Shame, we won't be going back.

Very nice atmosphere and some of the best Japanese food in London, staff were very welcoming and friendly. Would recommend visiting.

Aswin, was great! He was very helpful in making choices for specific dietary requirements. Food was tasty and hot! Would highly recommend :) PS try the plum sparkling wine !

Amazing food, served by the wonderful Naoki - thank you!

Amazing food and service thank u Naoki :D

Was told the special was an okonomiyaki, but was a £20 omelette instead. Delicious, but not what was ordered (my partner left hungry). Took 50 minutes to get our food.

Slow and inattentive staff :( waited over 45mins for food to arrive, and in the end we received something different to what we ordered due to the specials not being communicated about properly.

Staff were lovely but I am a vegetarian of many years and ordered a vegetarian okonomiyaki (indicated both on menu and on my bill at vegetarian) and it was tasty but halfway through eating I noticed a very fishy taste. It had been served with a fish topping. I pointed this out to the waiter who apologised. I was still charged the full amount plus service charge which I thought was quite unfair as I left with a bad taste and feeling a bit queasy

Absolutely amazing as usual. Great food options and attentive staff I can’t fault it!

Delicious food, original dishes and great service by Naoki

Amazing service, food, and atmosphere. I love coming here often with girlfriend and today I brought my dad for the first time. He loved okanomiyaki! Oishi Kata! Special thank you to Naoki San and Pooja San. Arigatougosaiimasu!

Review from 2 French women who ended up here by chance, pleasant atmosphere with a waiter who was warm throughout the meal. An excellent meal, we enjoyed it until the end at more than reasonable prices. Thank you very much see you soon!

Naoki was a great waiter, the food was incredible. Will definitely return.

Superb welcome! We ate very well, I recommend. Very kind staff, takes care of the dressing and just an incredible taste!

Naoki was very kind and gave a really nice service. Food was really good like always

Super food - and Naoki was super helpful!

Naoki was brilliant! I had an amazing time!

Great service. The okonomiyaki is out of this world. Good luck though finding a table when the Brixton Village market is busy! 100% recommend.

My new fav okanomiyaki place. A+ for staff. Prices great.

Terrible donburi. No flavour and not very generous with the toppings, which they took forever to cook. Better off elsewhere.

Kamil was friendly and the food was prompt and delicious

Amazing food, highly recommended! Great service, Kamil took great care of us. We will come again :)

Kamil, our waiter was really nice and the food was also really delicious. I was eating here before and would always come back

Really wanted to like this place. Was left a long time without service trying to flag down servers attention. 70+ mins to get just our mains so we asked for the bill at the same time as desert which was the smallest slice of cheesecake for 6 felt a bit like robbery. The mains were nice though very sweet. I went for the okonomiyaki pork noodle and the pork was some bacon on the bottom, which also felt like a trick. If it’s bacon..maybe just write bacon. Atmosphere was nice and the servers and manager were very sweet and understanding when we relayed our experience though didn’t go so far as to offer any alleviances.

Underwhelming and absolutely tasteless. Only saving grace was the cocktails.

Had a wonderful meal for two here - proper authentic Japanese food with 10/10 service

Amazing Okonomiyaki (savoury japanese pancakes with various fillings/toppings) and other Japanese food in Brixton Village Market. Nice vibes and good service.

Thanks Aki Ko for amazing service and recommendations!
