My fave food spot in Montreal!! I come here regularly with friends and usually stay around 2 hours lol. Staff are always so nice and the food is so filling but not heavy. Would recommend getting a combo of braised meats with injera, it is worth every penny. Juices and coffee are good too read more

The food was great and the staff was very attentive. I'd go and recommend to my friends! read more

Queen Sheba - 1 stew meat (chicken) + 1 veg (cabbage, carrots, potatoes) - Ethiopian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Wherever I go, Ethiopians have wonderful hospitality and this one marks another. A nice atmosphere with inside and few tables for outside seating. I still ordered the sample platter even though it came only for two or more servings. Definitely enough food. I took the leftovers home. Although no single item stood out, as a whole, the meal was satisfying. I give it four stars mainly because I don't believe there is much alternate options for this cuisine in Montreal. The injera was well made. The douro wat was a bit spicy and the beef wat was bland. read more

Absolutely yummy Ethiopian food!! The waiter was very knowledgeable and friendly. We also learned a little about the reason behind the spices in the food.. so it was a learning and culinary experience. We went early so we could take our time and saw the restaurant get very busy. It has a great vibe and people seemed happy and loving their food. This will be one of my main stops in Montreal, It's yummy! read more

Delicious Ethiopian food on the Plateau! Haven't eaten both indoors with a large group and outdoors with just 3 people and both times the food, service, and ambiance were all wonderful. read more

This was such an incredible meal! The two of us shared Yetsom Beyaynetu (the dish with all vegan options) and also the honey wine - so delicious. The service was excellent and the ambience was lovely. Highly recommend! read more

Great food. Vegan veggie combo was delicious. Quick service. Lovely area nearby parks. read more

Queen Sheba - Veggie combo for 2 - Ethiopian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Updating my review for delivery through UberEats. Their food is just as good delivered. Everything comes super fast and is still very fresh when it arrives (important when you're ordering raw beef!) The most recent time we ordered we got two veggie combos (couldn't choose, needed all of them), a meat combo with doro wat and alitcha wat, and the lega tibs. Everything super delicious as always. The kitfo serving is quite large (get the one with the cheese.) My favorite veggie dishes are probably the gomen (collard greens), messir wat (lentils in berbere spice) and the potato dish that comes with green beans. Kitfo and tibs are always good, and although chicken is normally a lesser protein in stews the doro wat is just so good (plus it comes with an egg!) Definitely would recommend adding this place into your delivery rotation! read more

Queen Sheba - 2 veggie combos, tibs, meat combo - Ethiopian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

My favorite thing about Queen Sheba, beyond the generous portions, is the beautiful artwork lining the walls and the ambience. The decor and vibe here is awesome. We ordered the veggie combo for two, and couldn't finish everything. The shiro wot and misir wot were particularly flavorful. read more

Queen Sheba - Mixed vegetarian platter with key wat (beef stew). - Ethiopian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Solid Ethiopian fare. The Yetsom Beyaynetu for 2 was the perfect blast of aroma and spice we were looking for. Vegetarian options are plentiful. We've tried many good and bad Ethiopian restaurants in the US and this one can hold its own with the best. Service was fine. Parking might be tough, but if you troll the side streets it's okay. Highly recommended. read more

Amazing. Everyone was so nice. The food was great and they accommodated a gluten free eater. They helped us order and the flavors were amazing. Such a fun evening. read more

First time trying Ethiopian food and I'm in love people!!! It was so good! I mean, I'm writing this review and all I want to do is get in my car and drive back there to eat their food again. Since it's my first time experiencing this type of cuisine, I can't compare. But my tastebuds and gluttonous soul were sooooo happy lol! Everything was tasty. My cousin that loves Ethiopian food and tried all of the Ethiopian restaurants here and elsewhere said that this is a very very good place. The service and ambiance of this place makes it all the better. They have a Groupon deal and as soon as I got home, I bought the deal. I can not wait to come back! read more

I don't eat ethiopian food often, but when I do I never regret it. This is food best enjoyed in a group for sure. I shared a big combination platter with a friend - we picked out 2 meats and 2 veggie stews. I was a bit limited because I'm not very tolerant of spicy foods but there were still some less spicy ones on the menu. everything came out very nicely displayed on some injera. My god, I love that stuff...it's like crepes on steroids. wonderfully spongy like a thin crumpet, but funky and tangy from the fermentation. It sops up all the juicy stews amazingly. We got an extra basket because we were pigs and couldn't stop eating. The yellow chickpea stew was quite delicious. We also got a whole other dish - the raw meat which was served with some stewed greens and some cheese. Wow...this was like a heavily spiced tartare and it was again delicious. I can't wait until the next time we go back to indulge in this great food. read more

This was my first time trying ethiopian food and it did not fail to impress me. My friends and I got the tasting platter which comprised of 2 main dishes + one braised beef and 5 different types of vegetables. You had to get ready to eat with your hands, which makes the experience quite unique as well! We also got a bottle of wine. The price of the platter and the wine was very reasonable. read more

Queen Sheba - Ethiopian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Was delicious and on par with several E restaurants I've eaten at. Service was great, too!

I went with my girl friend last night. We were recommended by another friend The food was very good. We had the tasting menu for 2 which gives you 3 veggies and 2 meats. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The flavours are different from the norm. The berbere sauce is very good. Further , it's quite an experience if you have never had Ethiopian food. read more

The food sooooo good. If you want really good, flavorful good, this is your place. If you have a gluten allergy, go here (the injera has barely, so get the rice). read more

Great food and an amazingly friendly owner! Support your local restaurants and business owners ! I highly recommend this location, it's incredible! read more

Thanks to the yelp app, we were able to find this place during our weekend trip to Montreal!!! The food was amazing, seriously good foooood. Really cute place with a nice front porch area where we had our late lunch/early dinner after hours of walk at the royal mountain. The Ethiopian bread injera was nicely sour and soft. The wait stuff guy was also very helpful. We took his recommendations for the food and we were so happy. He also called a cab for us. Very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely return!!! read more

Queen Sheba - Ethiopian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

We had the gomen, alitcha, and shiro wat - I would say the alitcha was their best out of those three! Gomen was a bit salty and also mushier than I would expect, and altho the shiro wat had a nice kick to it, I guess I wasn't paying attention as I usually don't expect it to be full purée, and I often feel like there could be chunks of chick peas. My bad tho! Might be the best that Montreal has to offer in terms of Ethiopian, but since I'm visiting it's hard to say. Nice folks tho, and not crazy expensive. read more

Love Ethiopian food, so a little bias but enjoyed the food a lot. Defo not suited for people who can't take spice, but if you are defo the burn you've been waiting for. Would recommend to dine with people to get a variety and can be a lot of food for one person. Curious to try other Ethiopian spots. It is also a great spot for people for trying this Ethiopian for the first time! read more

Queen Sheba - Veggie option and 2 meats - Ethiopian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

This was by far the worst Ethiopian food I have ever eaten. And since I'm married to an Ethiopian who insists on eating it wherever we are in the world I feel fairly confidant that I know what I'm talking about . Watered down food that was so expensive it makes my head spin. The beef Wat was unrecognizable with tiny cat food sized pieces of meat swimming in a gross greenish sludge. Only the injera was decent. Not at all spicy which is a hallmark of the cuisine. Do. Not. Eat. Here. read more

I ate here with a friend a few years ago, the food is exquisite, well seasoned bursting with flavour. There's just enough in a serving to tease your pallet and fill you without feeling overstuffed the decor is also tastefully done. I'll have to make my way back here soon! read more

Exceptional value and deliciousness. A neighborhood gem. Kind owners, and authentic food

I love Ethiopian food and Queen Sheba did not disappoint me. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. My friend and I went to the restaurant last night without having a reservation. The restaurant was fully booked, but somehow they managed to give us a seat at the bar. This being said: I recommend to make a reservation in advance :). If you step into the restaurant you smell the spices, and you don't want to leave without having tried their food. They also have a great selection of bottled wines. I wish they had more variety when it comes to ordering by glass. Also, try their coffee! read more

Amazing restaurant with wonderful dish platter to share. I really enjoyed dining here. The dish platter was so unique and had it's own kick of flavour to each of the dish options. The host is friendly and, despite being the only person at the station, he was attentive in servicing throughout the meal. Definitely a place I would return to many times. read more

Sharing a platter of Ethiopian food with good friends is such a pleasure, but in Montreal we haven't had many affordable options, so I was thrilled to hear about Queen Sheba. The ambiance is wonderful--the tables are well-spaced, but cozy; the space is warm and clean and perfectly lit; there's music, but it's easy to converse. The food is terrific: generous quantities, and fresh, with just the right amount of spice. The service is really top-notch and friendly. Oh, and it's all really affordable! I'm already planning my next visit... read more

I lived in Ethiopia a few years ago, and I am always on the lookout for delicious Ethiopian food. I was not disappointed! The vegetable combo (beyaynatu) gave a generous portion of all of my favorites: shiro (chickpea stew), misir wot (lentils), atekelt (cabbage and potatoes), gomen (collard greens)...delicious! The owner is sweet and attentive and humored my broken Amharic. Visiting Montreal from New York, I expected to crave poutine but found myself wanting Ethiopian, and Queen Sheba really hit the spot. read more

Excellent Ethiopian food at the Queen! The injera and berberi taste excellent! My wife and I had the plate for two with doro wat and minchet. Both were absolutely delicious. I added the chacha Tibs and what a meal! Excellent place for a date or a small group. Intimate setting where you can feel your food before you enjoy it. We are from out of town and we were excited to find this spot! Give it a try! read more

Food and service were outstanding. We had a wonderful evening, with food that was absolutely delicious. We picked a mix of vegetables and meat dishes. There are several different combinations either vegetarian, meat, or a combination of the two available, so you can easily find one that you like. And of course everything is served with and on injera, delicious sour dow bread. Can't wait to go back and try out other combinations! read more

Queen Sheba - Ethiopian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Five stars for these five reasons: 1. Service: fantastic, so friendly, lovely waiter (rare in Montreal) 2. Locally run: by an awesome family who has been in the city since 1992 3. Food: top notch, incredible variation among the veggie and meat dishes. Everything so tasty, not super spicy, but just enough. 4. Atmosphere: very chill, clean, minimal and welcoming decor - not too loud. 5. Music: best jazz compilation with fab piano riffs. read more

Nice, contemporary, ethnic atmosphere. Food was delicious. Service was great...very attentive and responsive. We had the sampler with two stewed meats and six vegetables. We enjoyed it. read more

Go. So so so good. Nice atmosphere and service and beautiful food and presentation. Affordable and delicious.

3.5stars I expected more out of this place.. I thought it would be more flavorful but the vegetable combo was bland. The meat (doro wat, chacha tibs, kitfo) were okay/good but the portions were really small for the price you pay. Service was kind of slow since there was only one person hosting, waitressing & cleaning but overall it was a good first time experience! read more

Queen Sheba - Missing chacha tibs - Ethiopian Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

The food was good and everyone was friendly, but the experience overall was mediocre. I love Ethiopian food, so I was excited to come here. I went with a very large group which might have something to do with the problems. The service was very very slow even though we appeared to be one of the few tables in the restaurant. There was a lot of confusion how much food to share and we ended up having to ordered more. If I lived closer I would give it another try with a smaller group of people. I would also only order the vegetarian dishes (they were far superior to the meat based dishes IMO). read more
