I recently visited Shalom Ethiopian & Eritrean Restaurant was absolutely blown away. From the moment I walked in, the ambiance and the music was warm and inviting. The owner(Saba) was incredibly attentive and friendly, ensuring I felt welcome and cared for throughout the meal. She was knowledgeable about the menu and gave me an excellent recommendations. I had Genfo with Ethiopian traditional coffee Ceremony—it was phenomenal and mouthwatering! Every dish was beautifully presented, and the flavors were perfectly balanced. The attention to detail here is impeccable, and the prices were reasonable given the high quality of the experience. If you're looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion or simply enjoy an unforgettable meal, Shalom Ethiopian & Eritrean Restaurant is a must-visit. I can’t wait to return and try more from the menu!

Despite being in Toronto for only two days, we are so glad that we decided to make our way to Shalom for lunch. The Shalom platter was beautifully prepared, packs a punch in flavor, and generous in portions. We also opted to try the traditional coffee ceremony. From roasting to brewing to sharing the cultural meaning behind the ceremony, our server went above and beyond in ensuring we had a unique and beautiful experience - Konjo Buna!

Sooooo good. We drove from Hamilton to come here, and it did not disappoint. We are 3 people with healthy appetites... we got a vegetarian platter for 2 and a meat platter for 2, and we cleaned the platter. We forgot to do a before and after. I guess we will have to come back to take the before :)

Really incredible Ethiopian food in a homey atmosphere with lovely service. My friend and I wanted authentic Ethiopian food in Toronto (as people who grew up in New York/Philly) and this place delivered! We got the Taste of Shalom to split so we could try a variety of vegetarian dishes, a meat (lamb), and plenty of injera, as well as a fresh coffee. Service was super friendly, and they were able to adjust the heat on the meat portion to suit our preferences. Prices were also extremely reasonable for the quantity and quality of the food. Highly recommend!!

This was such a great restaurant! I've never had Ethiopian food before so was excited to try. It was really delicious! The shared plate for 2 was a perfect amount of food. The service was amazing. Very accommodating of allergies and helped explain the dishes on the platter. What a great gem in Cabbagetown. Really recommend it!

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Toronto! The atmosphere is warm and cozy, the incense smells amazing, and the food and service are excellent. The vegetarian platter is rich with complementing flavors. We also tried the coffee ceremony, and the coffee is so robust and tasty. Thank you so much! I will miss this place and will always come back to it every time I’m in Toronto.

Such a lovely spot for some of the BEST Ethiopian food! The owner is so wonderful and we LOVED the coffee ceremony experience. The lamb stew was especially delicious, and most of the platters are gluten free (one of our party has an allergy)! Just a great place for an excellent meal with friends and family!
