Jebena Cafe

And well yes! My mom and I had the meat and veggie combo #2, baklava, a few coffees. It was all really great. Also I thought the pricing was pretty good, esp for the huge portions (had leftovers). I think it was ~40 for everything.

I was craving Ethiopian food, and Jebena Café kept popping up on Seattle’s “best of” lists, so naturally my second brain aka my stomach led me there. The place is quite small, and I’ll be honest, the surrounding neighborhood felt a bit shady. I even hesitated for a moment after parking. But once I stepped inside, the space was squeaky clean and I was warmly welcomed by the owner. We ordered the vegetarian combo, and the sides were flavorful, fresh, and subtle on the palate. It’s not the best Ethiopian food I’ve ever had, but it’s definitely better than many spots around town. The ingredients looked fresh and tasted crisp, which I really appreciated. They do close early, so make sure to arrive at least 30 minutes before closing. I also ordered a samosa, hoping it would beat the ones from

Family run cozy place, but authentic Ethiopian food. Nice vegetarian options, healthy and flavorful food. If you have not tried Ethiopian cuisine yet, it is must try.

Incredibly warm and thoughtful service. Jebena combo is the way to go! So much variety. I think it’s a solid amount for 2 hungry people - not sure if it’s fully feed 3.

This place is sublime. The food is incredible! Get the appetizer Qatena it is sooo addicting. Service is phenomenal and so fast. The flavors are incredible and they give you generous portions
