A unique business I'm so glad is in the neighborhood! Great food, video and musical offerings you won't find anywhere else in the area.

I love this market, Mercado! it has everything you need for its full-service market. It has a…read morefantastic meat section where you can find some delicious chorizo Mexican sausage as well as some amazing cuts of meat plus more. Im so impressed with the meat department and they have an experienced butcher who will provide you with a special cut of meat. They also have a fantastic bread section called panaderia in Spanish that is stocked daily with fresh homemade pastries, from donuts to croissants. the owners are super friendly and very knowledgeable about the products they sell. They also have fantastic selections of soft drinks, beer, and dairy products. I forgot to mention the produce department with an array of fresh vegetables and fresh fruits. Also, if you want fresh Mexican foods, they have the best tacos in Seattle I highly recommend this wonderful grocery store and you will be as surprised as I was when I went there. God Bless! Me encanta este Mercado! tiene todo lo que necesita para su mercado de servicio completo. Tiene una fantástica sección de carnes donde puedes encontrar un delicioso chorizo mexicano, así como algunos cortes de carne increíbles y más. Estoy muy impresionado con el departamento de carnes y tienen un carnicero experimentado que le proporcionará un corte especial de carne. También tienen una fantástica sección de pan llamada panaderia en español que se abastece diariamente con pasteles caseros frescos, desde donas hasta croissants. los dueños son súper amables y muy conocedores de los productos que venden. También tienen fantásticas selecciones de refrescos, cerveza y productos lácteos. Olvidé mencionar el departamento de productos agrícolas con una gran variedad de verduras y frutas frescas. Recomiendo encarecidamente esta maravillosa tienda de comestibles y se sorprenderá tanto como yo cuando fui allí. Dios los bendiga

This is just an okay Mexican grocery store. The space is huge and clean. The selection is kind of…read moresmall for such a big store, and it's almost 100% stuff from Mexico...it's not a Latin American store at all. I've seen many stores with much smaller spaces and much bigger selections. They have a prep kitchen for a taco truck they run in the store as well. If I was close by and needed something specific, I'd stop. But I would never travel to get to this store.

There are so many great Ethiopian restaurants in the area, but Kebesha has the hands down best…read morefood. I order the vegetarian combo which is a HUGE portion, enough for two meals, and everything is always fresh and perfectly seasoned. The Yemiser Wot is my favorite, so rich and spicy. My husband gets a meat dish and grazes on my vegetables and we STILL have two more meals for day-after lunch. The space is clean and the service is so lovely and sweet. We will return again and again.

We came as a group of five and were surprised to find the restaurant completely empty during…read moretypical dinner hours. It might be the location, but honestly the food deserves way more customers, everything was fantastic. We ordered the Meat Combo, which came with Kitfo and Ayeb, Key Wot, Alicha Wot, and Gomen Besiga. The Kitfo, an Ethiopian-style steak tartare seasoned with coriander, mitmita (hot chili powder), and herbed butter, was incredibly flavorful. Most of the meats leaned on the spicy side, but when you mixed them with the veggies and injera, everything balanced out perfectly. My favorite was the Key Wot, a spicy stew of slow-cooked beef with onions, garlic, cardamom (korerima), berbere, and Ethiopian herbal butter. My second favorite was the Gomen Besiga, made with boiled beef cubes flavored with spices, onions, and garlic. The texture was surprisingly tender, almost like fish. We also got the House Combo, which includes a mix of meats and vegetables. It only comes with two meats, but it's a great option for first-timers because you get to try a wider variety of flavors. The waitress was very helpful and thoughtful, taking the time to explain each dish to us. And bonus, they have some parking available, which is super convenient. Overall, the food was amazing, and I really hope more people discover this local gem.
