Suggestions for African Restaurant near Seattle

AFAR Media • August 4, 2014The small, narrow hole-in-the-wall restaurant feels cozy and friendly when you sit down at a tiny table. The fish yassa was a tender, juicy mountain of fish and rich lemon-and-onion gravy.

Nathan C. • June 2, 2013I recommend the veggie combo and the Yebeg Wot, you can feed four people with these two dishes, and it's oh so tasty.

Nicol C. • August 6, 2014This place makes the most delicious food. Fried fish & goat - order ugabi and the greens. Also ask about the cabbage, it isn't on the menu but it's worth getting. Oh, and the hot sauce is perfect!

Ahmet 🧿 • August 22, 2016Really good Ethiopian in Seattle! Lamb wot and lamb tibs are really good. If you're 3-4 people go with one of these and vegetarian combo.

Connald M. • November 15, 2014Sunset Combo! Cheap (price, not quality!), extremely delicious, easily feeds 2 with leftovers for another meal (leftovers themselves could feed 2). Owner is a friendly lady, can't help but love her

Kwasi A. • December 10, 2011Nice ambiance _ about to have Coffee and fine Ethiopian cuisine

Charlie L. • May 30, 2018I can’t believe I just tried this place for the first time! Hands down the best Ethiopian food in Seattle. If you’re near by, you’ve got to check this place out.

Michelle W. • September 2, 2016The combo platters are wonderful ways to get a great variety of tasty choices. We also love the foul - a breakfast dish of fava beans with a little kick.

Laura Mai-Lan • August 13, 2013This place is the best Ethiopian I've had and the portions are huge! They definitely know how to cook and their 2 meat combos are delicious!

Gia L. • August 19, 2023Every single thing we ate was delicious and the honey wine was excellent.

Geoff M. • September 16, 2012They are kid friendly. If you are new, try Enat Combo and a couple sides. My wife says don't forget the baklava...

Laurentia H. • March 5, 2015Their lamb tibbs and gomen be siga (collard green & beef) are the best in town. Come early since they often run out of the latter one!

Eva-Lise C. • October 25, 2013Excellent chai; unsweetened & served with a pot of honey.

Clayton H. • July 8, 2013Delicious shiro! Recommended.

deva • December 5, 2013Veggie combo is nom, and plenty for two.

Jon W. • November 20, 2011It's polite to only use your right hand when eating Ethiopian food. The left hand is considered unclean.

Glenn N. • February 24, 2015Veggie combo is super good and legit and feeds two people for like $12. They play a lot of rad 90s rnb. Blessed 🙏
