Selam Restaurant and Cafe is an Ethiopian establishment that offers kind and gentle service, with a welcoming atmosphere. The menu includes a vegetarian combo, chicken tibs, and sambusa, among other dishes. The flavors and spices used are unique and delicious. The injera is fresh, fluffy, and not too sour. The restaurant is known for its large portions and excellent preparation. The vegetarian combo and shiro are popular choices, with the shiro being particularly flavorful and satisfying.
Diners also appreciate the complimentary salad and reasonable prices. The restaurant has received positive reviews for its fantastic food, amazing service, and welcoming atmosphere. Customers have praised the diverse flavors and textures of the vegetarian combo, the richness of the kitfo (akin to beef tartare), and the delicious tea and coffee offerings. The restaurant is a favorite among local Ethiopian community members, who can often be found enjoying beers and conversation at the establishment.
