Title of this review aside, quantity doesn’t go very far in my book. It’s an unavoidable first impression when presented with the combo sampler, though, at over 2 feet in diameter.

Start with Ethiopian and Eritrean “standards,” add a few unexpected positive touches (incredible bone-in lamb), then make it all fresher and more distinctive than anywhere I’ve tried in Seattle. Dahlak delivers on quality, not just quantity; the flavors really pop.

Full bar plus beer and wine, and they could handle a 10 person crowd. Take someone there today.

The food is just like ethiopean food except that they have pasta items on the menu. We didn’t try those but the food was so good. The atmosphere not as great as the food, seeing that it was once a strip club and they haven’t changed the scene very much but everyone was really friendly and the service was good.

We gave this restaurant another chance because of recent reviews, plus our other favorite Ethiopian place let us down.
The place is a stones throw from our pad and we loved dinner there last week.
The staff/owners were friendly even sharing their table roasted coffee with us after our meal.
The flavor and variety are excellent with deep roasted spices, multi dimensional flavors and “tribal’ fun eating with our hands!
We both though the portion was way adequate and we got more injera without adding $1.25 like some places.
I really liked it and had a great time.
Every once and a while at these style restaurants we get something spoiled on the plate and this was no exception with some funky frozen reheated string beans that had "gone south” Avoiding them didn’t matter as the rest was so good.
Very good and would probably appeal to the veg heads in the audience.
