King Solomon & Queen Sheba Ethiopian Restaurant

What is King Solomon & Queen Sheba Ethiopian Restaurant? Located at 360 Queen Street East in Regent Park just west of Parliament, King Solomon & Queen Sheba brings homestyle Ethiopian cooking from cook and owner Alem Mola to Toronto's east end. The intimate dining room keeps things unpretentious and warm, lined with traditional textiles, East African artwork, and wooden tables arranged for group feasts, alongside sidewalk patio seating in warmer weather.

King Solomon & Queen Sheba Ethiopian Restaurant Menu & What to Order Meals here are built around tear-and-scoop dining on rounds of tangy, sourdough injera. The Vegetarian Platter (Yetsom Beyaynetu) is the standout, mounding spiced red lentils (misir wat), yellow split peas, stewed cabbage, and braised collards onto a communal plate. For meats, the Ye' Beg Key Tibs delivers tender pieces of lamb simmered in berbere-spiced sauce, while the classic Doro Wat and buttery Kitfo provide rich depth. Order the traditional Ethiopian coffee service brewed table-side in a clay jebena to cap off the meal.

Know Before You Go Tables are largely walk-in friendly, though calling ahead is recommended for larger groups planning a shared dinner. With the kitchen running until 2:00 a.m. every night, it serves as one of the east side's best late-night dining destinations. The 501 Queen streetcar drops off steps away at Parliament Street, and metered street parking lines Queen East.
