Queen of Sheeba — Restaurant in West Palm Beach

Queen of Sheeba Ethiopian restaurant, nestled in the Historic Northwest of West Palm Beach, truly reigns supreme in its domain. From the moment I stepped foot into this remarkable establishment, I was captivated by its warm ambiance and inviting atmosphere.

The culinary experience at Queen of Sheeba is nothing short of extraordinary. The menu boasts an array of authentic Ethiopian dishes, each meticulously prepared with love and attention to detail. The flavors burst with freshness, transporting me on a tantalizing journey through the rich tapestry of Ethiopian cuisine. Whether it was the fragrant injera bread or the tantalizingly spiced Doro Wat, every bite was a revelation.

What truly sets Queen of Sheeba apart, however, is the exceptional service. The staff is not only knowledgeable about the menu but also exudes a genuine warmth and friendliness that made me feel like a cherished guest. They were more than happy to provide recommendations, patiently explaining the various dishes and their cultural significance. Their passion for their craft was evident in every interaction, creating a welcoming and inclusive environment.

The attention to detail extended beyond the food and service. The restaurant itself is tastefully decorated, with traditional Ethiopian artwork adorning the walls, transporting diners to the heart...

Great finding, if you cook as much as I do, you start getting interested only on great food spots and Queen of Sheeba will be a worthy place to return.

The place is worth visiting on the ambiance alone, given how cozy and warm the place feels (You'll see some of the pics at the end). Besides that Ethiopian food is fun to try given it looks like it's intended to eat food mostly by hand with Injera: Ethiopian flat bread, that is very distinct to most breads people will be acquainted with.

Flavor wise the food will feel closer to Indian food given how spicy it is but I mean that as a compliment. Asa Tibs (The fish on the menu) is the crispiest moist fish I've ever had and the chocolate mousse cake even though not Ethiopian traditional it slaps hard.

To top it off the owner (Jolo) is really nice and really welcoming. My brother and I spent a good bit after eating, speaking with her about the different decorations they have on the restaurant as well as some insights on how the Injera gets prepared.

Word of caution, the restaurant is small so do make reservation specially if you go over the weekend.

P.S. There's a small parking lot to the right of the...

As an admirer of Ethiopian culture and food, I've been waiting for the longest for another Great Ethiopian restaurant to come to the south Florida area after the original Queen of Sheba in Miami's design district closed some years ago, as Ethiopian food is both difficult to find locally and hard to find the proper essentials in stores to make properly. I literally drove an hour from Miami to west palm just to eat here and the drive was definetly worth it. All of the staff is really friendly especially Solomon who I actually got a chance to talk to more personally about Ethiopian culture and history while placing my order. The exterior of the restaurant is beautifully decorated and welcoming. I actually felt more like being inside of an Ethiopian house hold than a restaurant. One other great thing about the Queen of Sheba in my personal opinion is the injera- The best I have had in a long time!!! Many places make the injera way too vinegary but it was perfect. It's too bad that I live so far but I will definetly be planning another dining visit here soon. I PRAY to God that this restaurant never goes out of...
