I am so very excited. I finally finally finally made it to Queen Sheba restaurant. I had been wanting to go for years. I asked one of my closest friends to come with me and there was always a reason why we were never able to make it. I was always ready but, there was always something that hindered our trip. I made it today for dinner with my daughter. We both had never been before and were excited to try a new cuisine and enjoy some Ethiopian food. We both tried the vegetarian combo plate and I loved it. Everything was delicious and fresh and it was so filling. I am still full and I barely ate half of my food. Everything was sooo good. I will definitely go back another time. My daughter and I really enjoyed the food and the experience.Vegetarian options: Plenty options for vegetarian and vegan too.Parking: Usually free parking between certahours of the day but, there was less parking because of some construction on the sidewalk where's the restaurant sits. NO PARKING Signs were placed all over the block, in front of the restaurant and a couple other businesses.Kid-friendliness: kids are welcomeWheelchair accessibility: yes, wheelchair accessible
The food was fresh and really good.My kids and me left the place.We will come back again.We love the veggie platter and also we love the chicken.We will try more.We will be
Went for lunch and wanted to try something new. The food was not too heavy and filling, great amount of food! The ladies working were pretty nice, I just didn't receive a refill on my drink but overall a nice authentic place to eat!

The food was delicious! We sampled the lunch buffet and two chicken dishes, which covered many of the dishes we wanted to try. They offer a gluten free injera option, which I really appreciate! It’s a hole in the wall, so don’t expect anything flashy…but if you’re looking for a tasty meal, this is your spot!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free injera (bread)
Perfect place in Sactown to get the real Ethiopian food taste. The customer service was excellent, very attentive. The Ambiance was really good. We were are party of 8 and they were able to comfortable accommodate our order. I would recommend it as your go to place for Ethiopian food. 5 stars - well earned.

Stopped in for lunch since I’ve had so many people recommend Queen Sheba. We had the vegetarian lunch buffet and added chicken tibbs and awaza chicken. We are both gluten free so we ordered the gluten free injera. I also had the spiced hot tea. It was delish!

I came, especially to bring my best friend who moved into town to have lunch here. Always had great service from the staff and host. The food is always delicious and fresh. I love the hibiscus juice that they make a lot of the seasonings for reminds me of my mother's home cooking. Come and enjoy lunch or dinner. You will not be disappointed. Everything is so good.

Tasty Ethiopian food. Got the awaze lamb tibbs dinner. Got it to-go, should’ve kept it upright as the sauces and liquids got mixed together fairly thoroughly and difficult to distinguish flavors.Not spectacular but not bad either.

My friend and I shared the two person combo with the awaze meats along with cabbage and lentil veggie dishes. The awaze beef was my favorite and the awaze chicken was my least favorite, the others were all good.
I tried Queen Sheba for the first time on a Friday night. Not only was it my first time trying this restaurant, but it was also my first time trying Ethiopian food in general. I came with a friend for an early dinner. When we first arrived, we were the only people in the restaurant, but by the time we left, the entire restaurant was completely full. Our waitress was extremely kind and attentive. We decided to try an order of veggie sambusas, chicken tibbs, and key wot. The veggie sambusas had a nice spice to them, and reminded me a lot of Indian samosas. They were perfectly crisp and filling. The two entrées we chose were served family style with their signature bread. I enjoyed the cultural experience of tearing off pieces of bread and eating with my hands. Both entrées had such great spice and flavor. They were so unique and some thing I have never tasted before. I will definitely be coming back to explore more of this menu as I think I am a newfound Ethiopian food fan!

Great spot for quality, fresh, and fairly priced Ethiopian food! Energy inside the restaurant is bustling with a homely vibe. Service is accommodating; however, can be slow at times. There are a multitude of delicious vegetarian/vegan options! We got the combo vegetarian plate with Injera bread and a side of rice. Ample bread was provided and the food was fresh. It was my first time trying Ethiopian food, and the curries were flavorful! Similar to Indian food in some ways. We also had a vegetarian samosa-like appetizer which was delicious!

Ordered two group platters based on their menu for a group of 7.Food was edible but lack luster and a few things just tasted like nothing in the center of the plate. It was chicken something but it tasted bland and blah.The service was deplorable. Not rude, just a complete disregard for customers, forgot a side of rice, no water refills, and we could have walked out simply because they didn’t seem to care.The atmosphere left much to be desired, lights were flickering, the men’s bathroom was in a state of disrepair, and the decor feels like no one cares about it.No clue why this place is so well reviewed (4.4 avg) but that was far from my experience.
