“ We got the tibs and doro wat which came with sides of red lentils, split peas, as well as some boiled potatoes and carrots. Everything was exceptional and went well together. The beef tibs are well seasoned and the doro wat's sauce is packed with flavor, with super tender chicken drumsticks. The meat and veggie sambusas are nice and flaky, I would highly recommend either of them. Definitely call ahead and get a reservation if you can since it's a smaller restaurant, but if you aren't able to get through or leave a message I would just walk in. We walked in last week and the chef/owner mentioned she hasn't been able to receive calls for a couple weeks, it still appears to be when I tried calling most recently ”

“ Finally tried the Ethiopian food at Queen of Sheba on E Colfax — and what a treasure this spot is! The owner is a lovely lady who is also your bartender, server, and cook in this cozy little spot that feels like you’re eating in her home dining room. All the meats are delicious, as well as the lentils and potatoes for my vegetarian folks! . Gluten-free injera available if you call ahead a few days. . Call for a reservation! There’s a total of maybe 6 tables here, so it’s a must. ”

“ You can absolutely feel the authenticity and dedication that the wonderful woman who runs this business puts into her food. I was lucky enough to visit twice while in Denver and both times was blown away. Enjera is wonderfully bouncy and perfectly sour with excellently spiced and seasoned meat and vegetable dishes with tender meat. The vegetable Sam Bussa is insanely full of flavor and served immediately out of the fryer, beautifully crisp layers outside of perfectly cooked lentils. You can’t go wrong, and make sure you leave her a good tip, you’ll see why she deserves it. ”

“ Delicious food! Nice owner. Love that there’s combination platters and ways to try many things. Looking forward to returning ”

“ We first ate here over 30 years ago. The food is as amazing as ever. Everything is homemade and the same woman still makes this incredible authentic food. ”

“ Hot damn! Best Ethiopian food I have had in a while. Run by one Ethiopian lady with a wicked tongue and excellent cooking skills. ”

“ The owner has operated the business for 32 years—and wow does she know how to cook! She is friendly and helpful, and even sent me off with an unsolicited sample for my wife since she was unable to join me. ”

“ Probably some of the best and most flavorful food places! Everything was cooked amazing, the meat was tender, the chicken literally fell off the bone. We were with a group and everyone loved their food! The owner was very friendly and made us feel at home. ”
