"This cozy Ethiopian storefront has been an anchor on MLK since the 1990s, which means it’s older than many of its current regulars. Portland has a number of exceptional Ethiopian restaurants, no two of which approach the versatile African cuisine in quite the same way. But honor must be paid to the Queen, which is still one of the best spots in town for richly spiced wat and tangy injera. For the uninitiated, the former is traditionally served on top of the latter, without utensils, which makes every meal a sort of scavenger hunt to pair the most savory morsel with the right scrap of flatbread. The best way to experience this is with the complete sampler for two, but for solo diners the smaller combination plates are also solid values." - Ben Coleman, Eater Staff
