Everything TikTok Restaurant Reviewer Keith Lee Ate in Seattle | Eater Seattle

"Visited at the request of a fan who said the restaurant struggled during COVID; Lee's family purchased doro wat, beef tibs, oatena, injera, and samboosa. He found the beef tibs' presentation lacking because grease was leaking from the to-go container; although the beef was tough, its flavor was described as "deep" and "spicy." Several family members rated the dishes with varied opinions. The samboosa was not to his liking—too many lentils and "very mushy," earning a 1—while the doro wat was compared to barbecue or braised chicken and given a 7.9. Lee and his family also left $1,000 to pay for anyone who came in to eat after them." - Courtney E. Smith

We tried this restaurant for the first time today and we loved it! We had the #13 vegetarian platter, sambosas, and oetena, it was all very good. We also had the ceremonial Ethiopian coffee and it was amazing! The owners are so nice, excellent customer service, we’ll definitely be back!

Great food and friendly hosts. We've had two combos: meat combo no. 2 and the vegetarian combo. Both were great, tasted fresh, not fatty, some spicy, some mild. A good mix to find something for every taste. What surprised me the most was how good the vegetarian combo was. I really recommend trying that one.

Been here three times now and the food is always so delicious! The couple that runs the place are super sweet-- they always give an extra helping of lentils for my toddler who can't handle the spicier fare. And the value is unbeatable. I will be a regular here.

My husband and I shared the Number 12 meat combo and it was so delicious and filling! Also very affordable lunch for two people compared to most places in Seattle. The look and appearance of the restaurant is very local/cozy, like a family member is cooking for you.

Kailita was very gracious to me. I had never tried Ethiopian food and she was patient and hospitable to give recommendations. She made a special order for me, and brought out yogurt to bring the spice level down. Very kind! She even paid for my friends meal out of the kindness of her God-given heart of generosity! I just found out that Senait means blessing, thank You Jesus Christ the Lord and the Savior!

Best Ethiopian food I've ever had. Not greasy and good selection of meats in the combination plate.

Very friendly humble people. The injera is authentic made from "Teff." I had juicy awaze tips which was yummy. I would recommend this restaurant for any one who would like to try delicious Ethiopian food. If you happen to be there, don't forget to try the tea rich with spices and with great aroma.
