Reviews for Shebelle Ethiopian Cuisine & Bar in Dallas, TX

Delicious food ! We have tried Doro wot , yebeg wot and red lentils … great service and they are very good at about explaining... and suggesting dishes. Will be back soon ! Read more

Update: made an order for pickup and asked for spicy powder and spicy sauce on the side when i arrived. It's usually given to me... in a small sauce container when I dine in, here or at any ethiopian restaurant. They're charging $2 per spice now. For a tinysauce container. I've put up with the poor customer service in the past for the food, but I won't be coming backnow. ________________________________________ I love ethiopian food, and the food here is great but service is painfully bad.The waitress is extremely slow and disorganized. Took 15 minutes to bring out my drinks; even then I had to go up to the counterto grab it myself along with additional plates as requested because she disappeared once again before bringing anythingover. There were 3 tables in the entire restaurant, three. On a separate dining experience here we were the only ones and shewas behind the bar sitting the entire time, we had to wave her down on many occasions. Not acceptable. I'm in the serviceindustry and always leave over 20%......but I just can't do that here. I really hope they get their customer service together asthe food really is good, but I think ill just go to queen of Sheeba from now on. Read more

Ordered togo of doro wot, doro Tibis, yebeg tibis, vegetable combination. The vegetable combination is awesome and doro wot is... good like a gravy, doro tibis and yebeg tibis are little like dry items. All of them taste good. The quantity of food served isgood. Specially the tiff, there are extra tiffs served. Hard to complete the full dish as its filling and heavy. Definitelyworth a try. Read more

This was first time dining at Shebelle. Most importantly ever experiencing Ethiopian Cuisine. They made such an impression on me... that I will most definitely return. It was not too crowded, they gave instructions for first timers on how to eat Ethiopia food,the staff was very knowledgeable, answered all of questions and gave fast and friendly service with a smile. Beautiful people!! Read more

Ambience was nice, very tidy and clean place. I was trying Ethiopian food for the first time and i loved it here. Service was... also good , server was attentive and sweet. I loved the food , only 1 reason to not giving 5 stars is the price. I got combospecial costing around 25 plus tax, but meat ratio provided was really less, i mean only 1 piece of chicken? Granted that therewere lamb meat n other also there but still i found it bit pricy for that price.Anyway no complain on foods taste & service Read more

Was there on a Monday night and the place was not at all crowded. However the ambience was quite nice and the staff was... friendly. I had a vegetarian soup - Azifa which is served cold. This soup was just amazing. For the main course I went for thevegetable combo which I must say was very satisfying. The taste was awesome and the portion was great too. The Price is veryreasonable. If you are at Plano and looking for Ethiopian food this one is highly recommend. Read more

First time trying Ethiopian food in Dallas and was pretty impressed. I've had it before in the San Francisco area, and I would... say this was on par or even better! We went for a late lunch on a Sunday, and it wasn't crowded at all. Large, clean space withlots of TVs and somewhat loud music. Waitress was friendly and have some good recommendations. Minor miss as they didn't pass mywater test... Cup was empty for awhile before they noticed. That being said, the food was spot on and made up for the watertest miss! + Sambusa: excellent! Came out with 2 pieces and had a bomb tangy sauce on the side that really paired well with thecrispiness and meaty filling. I could have ordered more of these. + Injera: perfect level of softness and chewiness andsourness! + Shebelle combo plate: came with Doro wot, kitfo, Yebeg alicha, minchet & vegetables. Everything had great flavor butthe lamb yebeg alicha was probably my favorite out of all of them. We'll definitely be coming back! Read more

Unique food that is very flavorful. The staff is friendly and so very helpful. They showed us how to eat the food and... recommended things for us to try. This is a great food experience that shouldn't be missed. Immaculately clean bathroom andnewly renovated interior. Read more
