“What an incredible culinary journey! I’ve never had authentic Ethiopian food before and I am happy to say that I love it! I was recommended to try this place by a nearby coffee shop barista and I couldn’t be more happy. Friendly service, simple and straightforward menu, and short wait times!
The waiter recommended the veggie and meat platter and it was the perfect intro for somebody who’s never eaten here! The only thing I wish this place had was somebody to sit down and eat this food with me! I was on a solo trip for work and the serving sizes here are MASSIVE definitely recommend splitting a platter.“
“If you are looking for the best east African and Somali restaurant that serves delicious goat meat and variety of authentic dishes , then look no further than Juba Restaurant and Café . Located in the heart the heart of seatac Washington at juba plaza the restaurant offers a wide range of traditional Somali dishes, made with fresh ingredients and authentic spices. I tried their goat meat and it is juicy and tender, cooked to perfection and served with a variety of sides. The ambience is warm and inviting, and the staff is friendly and accommodating. If you want to experience the flavors of Somalia, you are right here . Sitting in the bustling atmosphere of the restaurant, I couldn't help but feel transported to another world. The smell of spices and the sound of chatter filled the air, making me feel at home. As I sipped on my coffee and indulged in the delicious food, I couldn't help but feel grateful for the experience of immersing myself in to another world The owner of the restaurant is truly exceptional. Their dedication and passion for the business shines through in every aspect of the dining experience. From the delectable dishes they serve to the impeccable service provided by their staff, everything is simply top-notch. It's clear that they take great pride in their establishment and are committed to providing their customers with an unforgettable culinary adventure.

“First time eating food from this part of the world. Person serving was kind and helpful, portions were surprisingly robust, I have no examples of the cuisine to draw from- but food was GREAT to my untrained palate and my companion felt the same. Will definitely return.“

“Very kind people and EXCELLENT food for a wonderful price.“
“Located far from the usual hot Seattle eatery spots this place definitely deserves the loving! Yeah yeah the outside and the interior could use some work but who doesn’t love a no frills place that focuses on you just getting good food? This was my Dad and I’s first time trying Somali food and we were super impressed! The goat was so tender and well seasoned. Perfect cooked long grain rice. We got the chapati on the side which was cooked perfectly too. Sad we missed the sambusa but we’ll definitely be back for that and the other stuff. Not sure if the guy we talked to was the owner but he was nice helpful and friendly too. They take card but I’d recommend bringing cash because there wasn’t a tip option on the card machine.“

“Definitely recommended!
It's a simple hygienic restaurant run by a beautiful female, which cooks each ingredient to perfection. This is nothing like American food!
You can say this is a different restaurant: you'll hear your order being freaky cut and cooked, while enjoying your company. They serve the purest water (not the pool smelling tap water of Seattle), and the food is spicy and flavorful. You can tell, they care not just for the looks, taste, and smells, but also for balanced, simple and cheap diet.
Everyone who tasted confirmed, this food feels great and makes you STRONG for the day. When I hire helpers and such, I always take them here for breakfast. After eating here they are faster, have sharper mind, and zero digestive breaks or oopses at the workplace... And the morale is stellar.“

“Brought my family to try Ethiopian cuisine (where they’re from it’s basically non-existent). Not pictured, we also had shiro and coffee. Always order extra injera. Family appreciated the alcohol selection. Everything was delicious, the service was excellent, and the ambiance was great.“

“Sometimes it's hard to see this place driving down Rainier, but you can smell the goodness coming out of here. The patio was packed with locals from the East African community, and not a single hipster in sight, so I HAD to check it out. Glad I did. Took home some amazing spicy lamb tibs and it was so good I just had to take my partner here for dinner a few nights later. She was impressed as she ordered what I had the last time, and I had the Keye Wott (which was nice and spicy but not too spicy). Looks to be a family run joint, and the staff just loved that I came back and brought my partner here. Highly recommended.“

“Absolutely delicious! The tibs were well cooked and seasoned, the misir was flavourful, and the mixed veggies were a lovely variety. Everyone working there was very kind and attentive. Maheder is, hands down, my new favourite Ethiopian restaurant.

“The food is amazingly delicious, fresh, hot and plentiful. The staff is so kind and the atmosphere is cozy. The restaurant is situated behind the imported goods shop. My family has been enjoying this delight for over 10 years. Such a hidden gem.
Vegetarian options: The veggie combo and the spaghetti with red sauce (specify no meat) are both incredible.“

“Honestly the food is amazing! I have had it a few times and each time it has always been great! I have different sides each time. This place is a little out of my way to get to but when it comes to food quality it never disappoints!
Vegetarian options: You can order a plate with only vegetarian sides..“
