Queen Sheba

Phone number doesn't work, it's actually 206-322-0856. Their number is wrong on Yelp, Google Maps, everywhere. I just confirmed with a waitress.Hours are all over the place. Came on a regular Thursday at 6/7pm dinner time and no one was here, lights off and completely closed.Doordash order for pick up never is saved. Waitress is here telling me their tablet is broken so they at unable to view or accept orders. This is so painful - Ethiopian food is my FAVORITE. Just poor attention to detail here.

Pretty bummed to give this critical review since I wasn't able to try their food. Why is that? Because they were closed the day I showed up despite everything online telling me they were open on a Wednesday at 17:00.As someone visiting the city, I was disappointed traveling here to find the restaurant wasn't opened. No signage of why, no hours posted on their storefront - simply nothing.They have no social media presence as far as I could find and their current website leads to a spambot sort of situation. Did they recently start closing on Wednesdays? Who knows.Sure I could have called the day before to make sure but in this day and age, businesses should really make sure there is some way to communicate to customers their business hours. I was really looking forward to trying them but hopefully this can at least bring awareness to the management to alert customers online if situations arise and they aren't able to open shop.

Came here with a group of 5 people and ordered the Queen Sheba Combo and Asa Wot. It was more than enough food and we couldn't finish all of it!I love all the spices and flavor that was added to the dishes. The service was fast and the waiter was super sweet. Great place if you're craving ethiopian food!

Hit the spot for our Ethiopian food craving!! We got the meat combo, which is the perfect amount to share between two people. The food was great, although the curry was not as spiced and flavorful as I expected. The injera was spongy and delicious! Service was fast as well.There are some spots in Central District that I prefer flavor-wise, but this place is good enough if you're in the area!

Delicious tasting food and it is quite filling. Really enjoyed the flavors. The restaurant building is a bit old and chilly, fortunately we sat next to a portable heater. Server was super nice but definitely over worked as he was the only one working the shift.

First time trying Ethiopian food and it was delicious and fun to eat! My boyfriend and I got the veggie combo and sheba's spicy chicken (center of the plate), which were both plated on top of injera. We were served a side of injera as well. Injera had a very interesting look and texture; slightly sour in taste but went super well with everything. It also soaked up all the flavors after a while. My veggie combo had 5 different sides, but my favorite was the okra. The collard greens and cabbage & potatoes were really tasty as well. I, however, found the chicken to be a bit dry and not spicy enough. Highly recommend trying this place if you haven't had Ethiopian foods before--definitely an interesting eating experience and delicious flavors.

Yummy food that definitely was more than enough for six people. We got the platter for 6

I really cannot recommend this. No doubt there are better restaurants with this cuisine. Lackluster service. No heat. I will go elsewhere for this interesting cuisine.

Queen Sheba was a unique experience to someone like me who's never had Ethiopian food. The restaurant itself has a homey vibe - it seems to quite literally be built on the first floor of a home. I went on a little chillier of a day, so it was colder as other reviews had stated. But the owner was very kind and helped explain the food - and it was super good!The Ethiopian food that this place offers is centered around the injera, which is a sour-dough flatbread that you use to eat the sauces and proteins. It seemed super authentic and I really enjoyed the kike and the asa wot the most in our choices. I really liked how you could decide each part of your meal and mix/match everything!Overall, I'd try this place again - it was unique but delicious.

Really good food and nice staff. Hit the spot and was the best value of any meal I had in Seattle. Well done!
