Fantastic place. Wasn't our original first option for dinner but we saw that there was no wait and came in. Service was a tad slow, but I believe there aren't many workers, so it gave us some time to talk while waiting. Ordered a shared platter for 3 and it was amazing. Everything we got was so flavorful and cooked beautifully. Prepare to eat with your hands, but I don't kind that at all. Highly recommend coming here and we'll be back.

Tried this place out for the first time and the food was amazing here. I highly recommend trying this place out when you get a chance.

Good combo meals. The injera had a great flavor and texture. The lentils I had were the only part of my meal that I thought were a bit bland. But they had a good bite to them and were not overcooked at all. I was surprised my meal didn't feel more substantial, and would have liked a slightly heavier hand pouring the dishes onto my plate. But it's not like I left feeling hungry.

Have been coming here for a few years and they have maintained their quality. Come here some of the best Ethiopian food in the city

I thoroughly enjoyed the food the quality and freshness was on point! Service was great and eating with my hands makes it so much more enjoyable. Best vegan African food genre no doubt for me.

We had the veggie combo. Everything was fantastic. Great service. Definitely gonna hit this place up again soon!

We got the meat combo and veggies combo (all in one platter) and it was fantastic. The seasoning was really tasty and the meat was cooked to perfection. I can't believe this is my first time hear considering how many times I have heard about this restaurant. Highly recommended.

We had a unique food experience here. Highly recommend everyone to try.

Parking is a little hard to find in the area. But when you go inside it’s a beautiful clean place. Unfortunately the restaurant was cold when we were there and there’s not any hot drinks.The menu was cut short which is understandable with the whole employee shortage crisis. Nonetheless, the food was good. I ordered veggie combo and shiro was missing. Instead they gave me Bamyia which is totally fine but I should have informed.

We are spoiled with such great Ethiopian restaurants in Seattle. Queen Sheba has a cozy vibe in what I imagine is an old house. Food was delicious-- my friend and I split the meat combo for 2. I so wish there was a combo that allowed for a mix of meat and vegetables as some other restaurants have. Positive experience overall.
