Queen Of Sheba

A group from work came to celebrate the arrival and departure of our student workers. The service was EXCEPTIONAL. We had vegetarians, meat-a-tarians, and gluten-free/dairy-free me. Everyone found food they enjoyed. Our phenomenal server was SO PLEASANT and extremely competent. I was a server for years and often had to wait in large parties alone. He did everything perfectly. The food for the table came out together. He knew who ordered what and understood what his customers needed--what is vegetarian, gluten-free, etc The waiter recommended Ethiopian tea w/cardamom & other spices. I got iced & loved it. Next time I'll have hit tea because I think it comes in a fancy teapot. There are several combination dishes so you don't have to decide on one item. I got one of the meat & veggie combos. I don't usually eat lentils, but they came with my meal. They were well cooked & deliciously creamy w/paprika (I think). I ate them all. We had a large group (about 10) and everyone's meals were very well cooked and hot. The injera bread is NOT gluten-free, so my meal came on a bed of rice. Everyone else used the bread to pick up the food. We had fun, tried my new favorite cuisine, and took in the Ethiopian scenery. I will definitely go back. The portions are quite large and very reasonably priced. I think we averaged about $15/person. The food is filling, but not at all heavy. #GF #DF #vegan #vegetarian

Yesterday was my first time getting to experience this delicious place. We were greeted immediately when we entered, despite how busy they were. Several waiters checked on us periodically during our time. I ordered the chicken Sheba Tips and WOW. Absolutely delicious! Being new to Ethiopian cuisine I wasn't sure what to get, and the waiters were very helpful with explaining what everything is. It was a fantastic experience with authentic Ethiopian food, and the prices were surprisingly low. I will definitely be returning!
