Listen. You like good food? Go here. One combo is more than enough for two people. Get some honey wine. Enjoy yourself. Make the leftovers into a breakfast scramble the next day. Trust me on that. Belly dance every third Saturday. Go watch. 10/10 will return. read more

We trek to North Seattle to this place on a semi-regular basis. Outstanding, made by the Ethiopian mom you didn't know you had! We usually get the Enat combo plus a couple of our favorites (yellow lentil, spicy beef) to share. Worth the trip from the Eastside. read more

We stopped by Enat Ethiopian Restaurant on a Saturday around 3:30 pm for a late lunch. I had bookmarked this spot earlier, but after one of our Uber drivers raved about it, we made it a priority to dine here before flying home--and I'm so glad we did. We ordered the Yebere Siga Tips (#9) and Green Chicken (#15) based on our waitress' recommendation, and I chose the Enat Combination (#13) after seeing it in some Yelp photos. The Highly recommend #13--it's a great sampler that includes 3 beef dishes (like #9) and a variety of veggie sides, perfect for first-timers or anyone who wants to try a bit of everything. The food was delicious! The beef was a bit tough though. Portions are large and one order can easily be shared. If you're new to Ethiopian food, the best way I can describe it is to say many of the dishes are stewed, hearty, and comforting--flavors that feel familiar, like home-cooked meals. Ethiopian food somehow reminds me of Asian food, eaten with injera bread instead of rice. Injera bread is a fermented pancake-like flat bread which we happily tore up to dip, scoop, and grab. We were the only guests when we arrived, but by 4:30 pm the restaurant became very busy. A wonderful experience overall. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. read more

Really liked it. I am completely inexperienced in Ethiopian cuisine...I've eaten it once or twice but I know very little about the dishes. My son was taking me out for Father's Day- his first time paying for a meal out- which is cool. We ordered by instinct and I'm not going to be able to tell you what I ordered but we got one dish that was a variety of things on injera bread, and another dish that was beef or lamb and greens. I got an Ethiopian beer and my son got a drink that was just mango. We got too much food: a result of not knowing how to order. We were very well fed and the plate that had a variety of items was preferred by both of us. The service was good. Very friendly, fairly quick. They did not walk us through ordering but we also didn't ask for help but rather just dove in. It feels like it's being run by a family. The ambience is nothing special really. Ethiopian cultural decor, a big-ass tv in the corner playing soccer...whatever...you won't go here because it's 'fancy' you'll go here because you want really great Ethiopian food at a reasonable price. For $50+tip (thanks son!) you'll leave well fed. I'd recommend this place and will be back. read more

Great casual spot for Ethiopian food. I will admit I do not know if their food tastes how it "should" but to me it was pretty tasty. We got the veggie combo and the Enat combo and both come with a generous amount of food easily split between two individuals. The restaurant seems to be family run so service can be slow at times, but the staff are all very kind and generous. I will happily go back for more food in the future! read more

I went here with a friend last night. I had to go looking for my own menus when they were not brought to us within a few minutes of arriving. The food was delicious. I especially like the dish with the cabbage, and potatoes. The environment is a little distracting, with television on and so much artwork. It's almost overwhelming. The sun coming through the window in the late afternoon was also a little bit much. The server forgot to bring the coffee my friend asked for, but at least we weren't charged for it. read more

Love this place. Stopped in looking for authentic Ethiopian food (we'd stopped at their market just down the road and wanted to try their restaurant). It's the real deal, a jar of mitmita on the table, great offerings, excellent injera. Staff are friendly and helpful and service was quick. Definitely stop in if you're looking for an international experience. read more

Seattle is blessed with many Ethiopian gems. Enat didn't disappoint. I had the vegetarian platter. Everything was flavorful, well seasoned, and had a great mouthfeel. It's a very generous portion with three injera--leftovers for another meal and a half. Service was quick and pleasant, considering how crowded it was on a Friday night. Could it have been spicier? Yes... but that's me. I'll ask for spicy, and without a long explanation of why, I seldom get food with a good bite until I've been going there for a while. It's one of those places where people often move between tables, and there's a great community vibe. Give it a go, and don't ask for tableware ;) read more

I absolutely love this restaurant. I wish I lived closer, I'd eat here regularly if I could. I always get the Enat combo, it's two meals worth of food, generous portion, I have a full meal of leftovers every time I get it. The injera is so tangy, spongy, and delicious, and you get plenty, I think it's the best injera I've ever had. The meats and sides are flavorful. I love it, I'd give it 6 stars if I could. read more

Enat Ethiopian Restaurant - Enat combo - Ethiopian Near Me - Seattle, Washington

So happy to have found this restaurant. Location is close to me on the north end. I always get the veggie combo and it's wonderful!

I've only ordered takeout from this place, but the inside has comfortable lighting. Food was ready when i arrived and staff were friendly. But let's skip all that BS. All I'm really interested is the food. I grabbed the veggie combo and doro wat. The veggie platter was huge as I've come to expect with local Ethiopian/Eritrean restaurants. The veggies are well seasoned and a nice spice to the beans. The doro way is very well spiced. Actually spicy in a way that it seems many restaurants simply fail at. The spicing is balanced, and with a great kick. I highly recommend. read more

First dinner of our trip was to try Enat Ethiopian Restaurant. It's close to Loxicha Authentic Oaxacan Food and another Ethiopian spot, Ahadu Ethiopian Restaurant. We dropped in on a fairly busy Sunday evening (8:00pm). The inside is spacious with plenty of tables along with two TV's. Menu consists of 23 options along with a few side dishes, appetizers and desserts. Been to plenty of Ethiopian restaurants but this was the fastest we've ever been served. Food came out in 10 minutes. - Mango juice ($2.00 USD) - Enat combination (#13) ($20.79 USD) - meat and vegetable combo that comes with three massive portions of injera. Easily shared between two people or more. Injera had a slightly sour, fermented note. Our plate consisted of yellow split peas, beef, cabbage, marinated beef with onion, spicy beef stew, potato & carrot, spinach and salad. Best items were the cabbage and marinated beef with onion. The other two meats were dry and overcooked. Can't beat the portions and price at Enat. 3.5 stars. read more

I have been going here for years. It is my go-to Ethiopian restaurant. I don't know why I never reviewed them before. The staff is friendly, the food is excellent, and I've never had a bad experience. If you are new to Ethiopian food, start with the Enat combo. It's a good cross section of both meat and vegetable dishes. It will serve two hungry people, with some left over. For a party of four, you might want to add another dish. Their injera is always fresh. The honey wine balances the flavors nicely. And please, remember that Ethiopian food is eaten by the hand with a bit of injera to hold the food. Don't complain that you have to ask for a fork if you are not willing to use your fingers. read more

Loved this place. Someone noted in the comments the meat in the comb was tuff. I would agree but thought it might be stylistic. Nice market beside the place. Will be back! read more

First time we dined in for some Authentic Ethiopian food! Wow! What an experience! Not sure what to order? Ask your server and she will recommend the best of the best options for you! We ordered 2 different kinds of platters. One vegan and one meaty platter. Everyone gets a plate of their own thin crepe-pancake (which tastes vinegary) like side where you rip off a piece and pinch your meat, veggie dish of choice with. The best dish we liked was the cabbage, potatoes and carrots dish! It was wonderful and definitely kept us wanting more. The few meat dishes were a bit on the chewer side, was hoping it to be more tender and softened.. flavor wise was good. We ordered a couple appetizers too, the meaty one was my favorite! The crispy texture of the wrapper is somewhat similar to a lumpia (Filipino appetizer). Overall food was great, friendly service, but not very clean. Tables and floors a bit dirty and the bathrooms...could see better days. Kind of takes away your appetite when you walk into a dirty bathroom. Yikes. This restaurant gets SUPER busy~ so you know the food is delicious! read more

Great Ethiopian food! Enat was recommended by a friend of mine and it is such a great restaurant that is locally owned. I love coming here with a group of friends and sharing the food together. I feel like when you eat here it is like eating with family as everyone is chatting and laughing while sharing a delicious plate of food. My favorite dish from Enat is the Enat Combination plate. I highly recommend if it is your first time and you don't know what to get. In addition to that plate, get a mango lassi! I would saying one plate would easily be enough for 2-3 people. The employees at Enat are extremely friendly and will treat you like family. read more

This restaurant was exactly what I needed, especially on a day where it was 23F it was a respite from the harsh winds. The inside was very humbly decorated with simple seating and very kind staff. They even offered me nitrile gloves to try and warm my freezing cold hands. And the food was sooo comfy and good, exactly what I was looking for in a very reasonable price range. I was so happy and felt so lucky to find this place. It definitely makes me want to visit the area more often read more

[UberEats pickup review] Craving Ethiopian but wanting to try a different place, Enat Ethiopian restaurant was recommended. With limited time in the area, I opted for a takeout order via UberEats. Now, sometimes ordering pickup through delivery apps can be a hit or a miss (restaurants may start the order too early or forget the order completely), but Enat nailed it. The food was still considerably warm when I got home, and ready by the time I walked in. Now, prices may differentiate from the actual menu but with UberEats (not including tax and tip): -Meat sambusa $3 each -Veggie combo $15 -Extra injera $1 The meat sambusa is pretty large, which helps with the cost per sambusa, but the meat is pretty dry inside. For me it wasn't an issue, since I combined it with the veggie combo but if you're not ordering a dish with some sort of sauce and eating the sambusa solo: have a drink or your own sauce ready. I'm not sure if it's normal or if they just made too much that day, but the extra injera ended up being 4 large pieces for $1. Lastly, the veggie combo was wrapped and tucked into the container which really helped with the commute home. I've had some unfortunate experiences with Ethiopian food where the sauce was overflowing and had soaked through the containers and/or bags by the time I arrived home. Crisis diverted in this case! I enjoyed the meal, and will definitely come back as it's one of the rare Ethiopian restaurants that offer sambusas. read more

This hit the spot, I had to come back two days in a row. It's not close to my house or I'd probably be there everyday.

This has been our go to Ethiopian Restaurant. Parking is limited, but I have usually been able to find a spot. Service has always been very solid. Prices are very reasonable here. We usually get the Enat and Veggie Combos along with 1 different meat dish. You cannot get a bad meat dish here, but I have occasionally eaten undercooked lentils here. Flavors are always on point though. My favorite sides are usually the cabbage, salad and collards. I'll definitely keep coming. Give them a try! read more

I got the Enat Combination which is "a bit of everything," so a mix of meat and vegetable dishes. The portions are VERY generous and include 3 warm and spongey injera on the side. The food was ready quickly, which was great because I had quite an appetite! It seems that the combination will vary, but I believe that I got Yebeg tibs (marinated lamb), doro wot (chicken stew), beef tibs, potatoes/carrots, collard greens. Parking here was easy, which was a big plus! There's lots of dining space as well. read more

I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of my meal! My friend had never had Ethiopian food and I was proud to say I knew a place that was guaranteed to be delicious. The waitresses were kind and we got our food fast. (Not pictured due to excitement of eating), we also ordered the lentil and meat Sambusa's! Definitely worth a try if you've never had before. The portion of our meal was perfect for two people. It doesn't look like a ton but trust me, it was very filling, and so so flavorful! This hole in the wall restaurant is a must try! Please come and support! P.S. This meal was also nut free for anyone else who also has a tree nut allergy read more
