Cafe Selam

Brought my wife and kids for their very first Ethiopian meal and they wanted to do it again. Delicious food and excellent service. As we were about to leave, my son asked for ordering an additional to-go dish...we finished it in just a few minutes after arriving home.

I love this restaurant so much. I've been a customer here for well over a decade. The food is consistently delicious. It's fresh, seasoned just right, and you know that it's made with lots of care and love. If you ever make it in for breakfast, by all means get the foul! It's outstanding! Everything here, for that matter, is outstanding.

My go to Ethiopian cafe in Seattle. Authentic taste and quick service. Awesome veg food options!

Really good food. The spice was just right, not too hot. The wait staff was very friendly and took good care of us. The meat combo was plenty of food for two people and the lamb was amazing. Great little outside dining area here too, come when the weather is nice.

Excellent food. Excellent value. Their veggie / meat combos can easily feed 2 people, and the food is mean to be shared.

If you've never had Ethiopian food, it's a real experience and you need to check this place out. Note that you're expected to eat with your fingers by tearing off little pieces of bread and scooping up the various foods. Hopefully that doesn't sound weird, because it's amazing.
