I liked the 6 dish platter, chef's choice. I got to try a lot variety. The food tasted flavorful and healthy. This was my first time having Ethiopian food.I personally preferred the vegetarian dishes more than the taste of the meat ones.

We shared the meat Combo speciaexperience qnd the fire shrip, a group of 4. Excellent service, authentic food, and big portions had to take some home. Overall, it was a great dining experience.

We went to their other location many years ago, and the food was delightful beyond description.We went to this new location, and while it was still good, the portions were a bit smaller and much saltier.The staff were incredibly sweet and friendly. Inside the restaurant looked and smelled lovely. The outside seating area is in desperate need of a clean-up and some improvements.

So happy to see this restaurant flourish in temple terrace. My friends and i dined there recently and it's as good as i remember. The portion sizes of the platter was slightly smaller but we still left stuffed. Great service as always. Looking forward to our next visit

Best food on planet earth.Vegetarian options: I go specifically for vegetarian options... the combination platters are... there isn't an adjective good enough to describe the food... luscious? Succulent? Crave-worthy?? Yup, all that and more. Go to this restaurant RIGHT NOW!!Dietary restrictions: great glutin free bread!!

First time at an Ethiopian restaurant. It's tiny, kinda tucked away, in a plaza. Super cozy vibes, and my group ended up sharing our meal together - all hands-on deck! The menu's a bit of a book - so many choices! But hey, that's part of the fun, discovering what hits the spot. No hard liquor, but they've got beer and wine. Overall, loved the experience and its definitely worth a try!

The food was good and tasteful. The drink was not all that. The service was not great for us. People that came after us by 10-15 min received their food before us. It took an hour before receiving our food from the time we got there. We were tempted to leave but stayed cause I always wanted to try the food and restaurant. The only items on the kid menu was chicken nuggets and fries, $5 for each. I don't plan to ever go back.

As a frequent patron of Queen of Sheba Tampa Ethiopian Restaurant, I can attest to the exceptional quality of their catering services. Whether dining in or ordering to go, their culinary expertise shines through in every dish. From the rich flavors of their traditional stews to the aromatic spices that transport you to Ethiopia with each bite, Queen of Sheba never fails to impress. With their reliable service and delicious cuisine, they've become my go-to choice for catering, making mealtime a breeze for busy parents like myself. If you're looking for a catering solution that delivers on both convenience and flavor, look no further than Queen of Sheba Ethiopian Restaurant.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options
My boss took me here for a late lunch. I love the laid back, family-run vibe; our server, when not helping us, was having tea at a table in the corner with some other people. She was so nice and friendly. I had beef wot and I absolutely gobbled it up. The spices were on point, though maybe just a little more sour than I prefer. Pleasantly piquant. Prices fair. A good experience, I would eat here again.

I was a big fan of this restaurant but I’m truly disappointed with my last visit. I’ve been going to this place for about 5 years and not only the price has increased (which I understand) but the portions have decreased significantly. They don’t include injera anymore. I don’t think is fair to pay almost $4 for two extra pieces of injera. The food is still good but I’m just disappointed with the overall experience.

Was looking forward to eating here for a while, but the server told us to wait outside in the cold because there was no table for four. Then some customers got up and left, and told us their table was free now. But we waited for a while and the server never came out. So we left.I guess their business is booming and they don’t need any new customers.

We went at 7pm, waiting for a table. The lady asked us to wait outside until the table was ready, that’s cool. We were waiting and a family left, so now two table are available. But the server lady never called us in, when we went in no one bothered to ask us if we want to sit. Perhaps they didn’t want us there, so we left after 20 minutes of waiting. Was hoping to try the food but this left us all is a bad taste.

I ordered Doro Wot an authentic Ethiopian cuisine. For $20 the amount of chicken was really low. The taste was good not exceptional. The place is quite small but looked quite attractive with artwork. Could be better.
