SERVING SEATTLE FOR 30 YEARS - A SEATTLE STAPLE & A HOME. LOCATED IN THE CENTRAL DISTRICT

Featured in CNN Travel, The Stranger, and featured as the “Editor’s Pick” by the Seattle Met.

Our food is made fresh to order and can be tailored to suit your taste. We proudly offer healthy choices, including gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options. The spices used in our dishes are carefully selected by the owner and imported directly from Ethiopia. We prioritize quality and attention to detail in our ingredients and preparation. At Meskel Ethiopian Restaurant, we take pride in being recognized as the premier destination for Ethiopian cuisine in Seattle.

Seattle has one of the largest Ethiopian populations in the U.S., and of the many restaurants in Little Addis Ababa, none are as homey as Meskel. After all, it’s in a converted house. The generous main dishes — the gomen be siga (beef ribs and collard greens) and the doro wat (braised chicken) are popular — come with stacks of spongy, filling injera bread.
