Located just a few blocks away from Times Square, the heart of the city, on the corner of 10th Avenue and 46th Street in Midtown Manhattan is Queen of Sheba, an Ethiopian eatery that is “perfect for sharing Ethiopian traditional meal, stories and culture with family and friends”. The rum cake is unbelievable! Owner and Executive Chef Philipos Mengistu is truly an Ambassador of Ethiopian food and has been profiled in several TV shows in the US. With a décor that takes you back to Ethiopia, the seating in the restaurant is deliberate; to amplify a sense of community. And you cannot be ashamed to eat with your hands; Queen of Sheba would not have it any other way!

Ethiopian cuisine is a flavor explosion! Injera, a sourdough flatbread, is a staple and perfect for pairing with rich, spicy stews and sauces. Try Doro Wat, a chicken stew, or Tere Sigga, raw meat. Finish with a sweet and spicy Himbasha cake. Ethiopian food is perfect for sharing with friends!

One drumsticks slow-cooked in a dense stew of onions, Berbere, and Kibe with a small boiled egg simmered into the mix. A festive treat!

Tenderloins cubes sautéed with onion, garlic, pepper, and oil with a touch of burgundy wine. A very delicious meal!
