Family owned business. The sauces that the meat combo was cooked in were delicious. Between the two of us we ordered the lentil... sambosa and meat combo. Plenty of food for us. Be prepared to eat with your hands! Staff was very friendly. Read more

Shewa is my favorite neighborhood restaurant! When I moved to the H Street/Benning Road area, I immediately looked for a spot to... become a regular at (you know how that goes). Having my go-to take out be homemade, healthy, Ethiopian cuisine was more than Icould?ve asked for. The food is amazing, the owners are lovely, and I look forward to eating there every week! I love to supporta Black/immigrant/Ethiopian-owned small business, especially for the quality and quantity of food! Definitely bank for yourbuck. 5 stars all around! Read more

This was the first place I got takeout from when I moved to DC. The owners were so welcoming and kind and you can see how proud... they are of their lovely restaurant. It?s a very clean and comforting place with amazing artwork on the walls. The food isabsolutely amazing! It?s so full of flavor and vibrant color. Every time I come here I always want to keep eating because thefood is so good even when I?m already full. My absolute favorite thing to get here is the lentil sambusa, as well as the DoroWat and the Veggie Combo! I can?t recommend this place enough it?s an absolute gem! Read more
