I got the large veggie plate because I wanted to try everything, and wow. What a great decision. I’ve never had Ethiopian food before, and this was amazinggggg. I was only in town for work, but if I could go back more frequently absolutely would.

I actually got three meals out of this- surprisingly the leftovers were a great car lunch when I pulled over to a park to sit and eat.

Parking was very easy, and the price was great for the amount and quality of food. The owner was very nice and attentive.

This has definitely inspired me to seek out Ethiopian places near my home.

Been here 2 months ago in November and loved it. But this time we visit the food was just meh. They were seasoned weirdly with some being overly sweet and some being too salty, and the beef tibs are very dry. Mostly importantly the Kitfo tastes like it’s been sitting in the fridge forever cus there’s a layer of fat congealing on the top even tho we ate it immediately after we got home. There’s a sign at the door saying they got new management so hopefully the food will come back to normal soon!

This is a nice little gem in a small food mall. First time for me enjoying food here. The lady at the front desk was super nice and fun to talk with. The atmosphere is great, and if you like the diverse food of Ethiopia, then this is a good place to enjoy 😉. There is enough parking space outside so there is no worries in that department. Bon appétit

First time trying Ethiopian food and it’s great! The server was nice and made sure everything was to our liking. There are plenty of seats during the morning and bathrooms located at the back.

My husband and I visited this restaurant about 9 months ago and we thought it was good. However, I recently took my niece, who loves Ethiopian food, for lunch last weekend and we were appalled. I ordered a vegetarian sampler and it was just ok. Just ok. However, she ordered one of the beef tibs dishes and it was hideous. Not exaggerating--the beef tasted, looked, and crunched like something that was scraped off the side of the pan after it had been baked for a couple of hours. Not kidding. IT LOOKED AND TASTED AND CRUNCHED LIKE IT HAD BEEN SCRAPED OFF THE SIDE OF A BAKING DISH. I am still mad at myself for not sending it back (my niece didn't want to make a scene because the waiter was nice). I will return to Sheba from now on.

Overall, I’d say that Ethiopis has some pretty good food and I like that it’s usually not too crowded whenever I would walk into the restaurant. Not to mention that the servers are very nice and patient.

While I wish that they offered either some cheese or yogurt to cool off my mouth if a dish is a bit hot to my liking, in general, if you’re looking for a nice starter Ethiopian restaurant, then I’d say that Ethiopis would be a good place to go to.

By the way, I highly recommend the vegetarian platters. They’re very colorful and they’re nutritious and full of flavor. Plus, you’ll be sure to have plenty of leftovers for breakfast once you leave. :)

We stopped here for an early dinner on a Sunday evening. We ordered the Chicken Stew and the Lamb stew plus several types of vegetable dishes such as diced tomatoes salad, collard greens, lentils and chick peas.

The vegetables were served in 2 big platters covered with a pancake like bread. My lamb dish was delicious, seasoned well and not spicy. My lentils and collard greens were a little spicy for my taste, chick peas were delicious and not spicy at all.

We took home our leftover foods. Both dishes cost $20.00 each plus some tips. My companion enjoyed his foods and explained that both dishes take long time to cook, about 6-8 hours to blend their spices and meats. For me, not being a fan of spicy foods, I just ate the mild lamb stew and chick peas.

Come and try their dishes if you like spicy Ethiopian foods!
