My first foyer into Ethiopian cuisine and I am VERY pleased!! I enjoy Indian/Korean/Mediterranean, but this may be my new favourite. We had dishes of lamb, chicken, beef and samosas, and I ate until I couldn't. The owner was so sweet and gracious with our questions. Spices permeate the air in this welcoming fragrence when you walk in. A must try experience!
I'm supremely pleased with my experience at Selam! The owner is very friendly and gracious, and the food is superb. I got the veggie sampler and everything was great. My favs were the yellow lentils and the spinach, but I had to stop myself eating more once I got full because it was all so delicious. I will be returning soon, especially since they were out of veggie sambusas and my mouth is watering just thinking about how delightful I know they'll be
Absolutely amazing! I highly highly recommend Selam. We had a craving for Ethopian and picked Selam and we will definitely be back! We were greeted by the owners and had some back and forth banter. So nice. And the service was lovely. We got the combo #28 and the food was hot and well presented. The combo was enough to feed 3 or 4 people so we brought home left overs. I ate until I was stuffed. The atmosphere was just special because of the owners and the kindness. They also have beer and wine and a special coffee machine which is awesome. Yum!! Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp
Ordered takeout from here last night, and we really enjoyed our meal. The veggie platter was so satisfying - especially the lentil and spinach portions. The injera was perfection. Will be back for sure!
We really enjoyed our meal at Selam. There were many different and distinct vegetable and legume based dishes that were served on Injera. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. The delicious smells from the kitchen made me feel as if I were entering a restaurant in Ethiopia rather than in the middle of Minneapolis. The owners and cooks came over to our table to answer questions and chat. The food and the entire experience was wonderful. Highly recommended.
Best veggie sampler in the Twin Cities. The lentil samosas are amazing too! Selam is my favorite. I would recommend it a million times! The owners and staff are great too! It’s always a wonderful experience.Recommended dishesVegetarian Combo
We loved the food and hospitality of Selam! We ordered the Veggie combo platter #25 and a meat dish #19. It was comfort food for my soul. This was the 2nd time I've ever had Ethiopian food 1st time was years ago in Boston and I'm officially hooked. They will see me drive the 45 minutes on a regular basis! We found Selam via a Google search. Reviews were good so we decided to give it a try and I'm glad we did. Go - and bring your friends!
I am so glad I finally made time to go to this restaurant!! The veggie platter and samosas were absolutely amazing. I also tried an appetizer made of injera, some spices and some kind of cheese- can’t remember what it was called. It was delicious!! I will be back! I can’t wait to take my kids to try it!
Wow!! I would recommend Selam Restaurant to anyone who wants to trying REAL ethopian cuisine. The owner is very friendly. The food totally blew me off. The food was amazing! I love this place!!!
Went there today with my best friend, service was amazing. Food was delicious and arrived in a timely manner. Family owned business that cares about customer satisfaction. Went to countless Ethiopian restaurants but by far this one is the best!!!! Can’t wait to go again. Oh and their chai tea is amazing!!
