ONE OF THE BEST RESTAURANTS IN SEATTLE

Order the lamb meat combo and veggie combo for a party of 4 (just trust me). It will be about $13 each before tip and the most delicious mix of diverse flavors and ingredients you’ve had in a minute. Your party will eat like kings on a budget. Hearty servings too.

I’m shocked this place doesn’t have better business. Please bring your friends here. Trust this random stranger on the internet. Just maybe ask them to make it spicier because they might hold back on you lol.

Thank you Cafe Ibex for making some of the most flavorful vegetarian food in the city! And impeccably marinated meats as well.

They’re open late and sometimes start dancing too. They’re just a vibe for real!

We loved the food and service. We’re a big group with a bunch of noisy and energetic kids, the staff were really accommodating.

Wife and I have tried Ethiopian food one other time, and it was great too, but the atmosphere here was incredible. They did everything possible to make this a legendary meal from every angle. The smells, the sights, the vibe and service,........and the food,........the best meal in months, period.

Roasted coffee in a frying pan right in front of us and were burning the most aromatic resin or incense, just fantastic all around,...6 stars if I could!!

Thanks for a great lunch Ibex Cafe!!

Wow! I stopped in for dinner with a friend and between the two of us we couldn't finish our very reasonably priced ($25), delicious combo platter.

The food was amazing. We got the beef combo platter, and it had some flavors that I've never had at any other Ethiopian restaurant, and man, they were delicious. I'm actually getting hungry writing about it because they were so good. The veggies that were included were also delicious, so I'm pretty sure that if I got a veggie platter, I'd be just as delighted... But one platter was definitely enough 😅

Parking was easy and we were delighted by our conversations with the staff. I can't wait to go back! But we're going to have to bring more people because I want to try all the combos!

Delicious food with friendly service. We normally get the lamb combo or chicken combo. Either of those is more than enough food for 2 people. My friend is gluten intolerant so they always make gluten free injera for her.

OMG! My meal was absolutely Delicious!
I ordered the lamb combination; tried to eat it all myself. 😋. Highly recommended.
Customer Service was great.

I got the vegetable combo and it was delicious! Enough to share or split into two meals. The owner was kind and the ambiance was comforting and inspiring (makes me want to dance in the party hall!)
