Silssi
Silssi is our flavorful Ethiopian tomato sauce, beloved by vegans and meat-eaters alike.

Infused with chili and a touch of olive oil, Silssi packs a punch of heat and tang.

Signature Dishes
Doro Wot
Doro Wot is a rich, slow-simmered chicken stew. We braise two chicken drumsticks for hours in a deeply spiced berbere sauce, enriched with niter kibbeh (Ethiopian spiced butter) to give it a velvety texture. Each drumstick becomes fall-off-the-bone tender and infused with fiery flavor. Traditionally, a hardboiled egg crowns the stew, soaking up that savory, red gravy.
$19.75
Sirloin Sizzle Tibs
Top-end sirloin, sliced thin and flash-cooked in a traditional “derek” style – a dry pan stir-fry – with onions, jalapeños, and roasted garlic. A splash of red wine deglazes the pan, picking up all those flavorful browned bits and juices. The tibs arrive sizzling, releasing an intoxicating aroma of garlic, peppers, and Ethiopian spiced butter.
$23.45
Lamb Leg
An indulgent baby lamb leg, marinated in red wine, garlic, and herbs, then slow roast it until irresistibly tender.

On the side: a fresh house salad and two vegetable sides of your choice (instead of injera, to let the lamb shine).
$23.95
Doro Tibs
Juicy chunks of chicken breast sautéed with Ethiopian spiced butter, onions, tomatoes, garlic, and jalapeños. Doro Tibs is stir-fry meets stew: the chicken sears and picks up smoky edges, while the fresh veggies create a light sauce. It’s medium spiced – full of flavor but not too hot. If you’re looking for a milder introduction to Ethiopian spices, Doro Tibs is the go-to.
$20.15
Yebeg Wot
A bold lamb stew that showcases Ethiopia’s love of spice. We slow-cook bite-sized lamb pieces for hours in a berbere-forward sauce. Cooked with spiced butter, garlic, and onion, the lamb becomes incredibly tender, almost buttery, having absorbed all the spices. Each serving comes with that lush, red gravy that begs to be soaked up by injera. True Ethiopian comfort food for spice enthusiasts.
$21.95
Ye'assa Tuna Tibs
Fresh tuna steak, chopped into bite-size pieces and sautéed Ethiopian-style. We cook the tuna over high heat with olive oil, a dash of awaze (spicy red pepper paste), fragrant cardamom, and sliced jalapeños. Expect a very spicy kick – the tuna tibs are fiery yet succulent, with the fish’s meaty texture balancing the bold spices. This unique seafood brings the Red Sea taste to our Dallas Ethiopian spread.
$20.85
Yebeg Tibs
Lively sautéed lamb bursting with flavor. We cut lamb into bite-size pieces and flash-sear it with onions, garlic, and jalapeños in a little spiced butter. The pan is hot, so the lamb gets a nice sear while staying juicy inside. Finished with a touch of rosemary (a nod to how some Ethiopians perfume their tibs), this dish is mildly spicy – the jalapeños lend aroma more than heat. A great pick for lamb lovers.
$21.95
Kitfo
Ethiopia’s famed steak tartare. Kitfo is made from ultra-lean beef, minced to a fine tartare. We season it generously with mitmita (spicy chili powder with cardamom) and blend in warm niter kibbeh (clarified butter). You can have it traditionally rare, or ask for it “leb leb” (lightly seared) – either way, it’s silky and indulgent. Served with a side of ayib (Ethiopian cottage cheese) to cool the heat.
$21.95
Classic Ethiopian Entrees
Doro Minchet Abish
A zesty minced chicken stew featuring lean chicken breast shredded and simmered in a robust sauce.
“Minchet Abish” highlights Abish (Ethiopian fenugreek) which gives the dish a distinctive aromatic
warmth. We cook the chicken mince with berbere, garlic, and onions until it thickens. It's a lesser-
known Ethiopian gem that will delight those who love dishes like chili but with an African twist.
$20.15
Doro Alecha
A mild and aromatic chicken dish for those who prefer flavor without the heat. Doro Alecha features
chicken breast pieces sautéed in a golden ginger and turmeric sauce. We cook it with garlic, sliced
jalapeños (only for flavor, not spiciness as we remove the seeds), and sweet yellow onions. It's gentle
on the palate yet deeply comforting, a great choice for kids or anyone easing into Ethiopian cuisine.
$20.15
Yebeg Alecha
A delicate, slow-simmered lamb stew that's fragrant rather than spicy. We braise small lamb chunks in
a clarified butter sauce seasoned with ginger, turmeric, and garlic - no berbere here. The result is
Yebeg Alecha: a non-spicy stew where the lamb becomes fork-tender and imbued with a mellow,
buttery sauce with hints of ginger. If you love lamb but not chili heat, this is the dish for you.
$21.95
Tibs
Our classic beef tibs: bite-sized cubes of inside-round beef quickly sautéed with red onions, jalapeños,
and garlic in niter kibbeh spiced butter. The beef is seared on the outside and tender inside, while the
onions and peppers caramelize around it. The butter and juices create a light, savory sauce with a kick
of spice (mild-to-medium heat).
$20.85
Zil Zil Tibs
Strips of lean beef (think fajita-style cut) sautéed with a fiery twist. Zil Zil Tibs uses long strips of
marinated beef that we stir-fry with plenty of red onion, garlic, and jalapeños. Because the pieces are
thin, they cook fast and get a nice char on the edges. We spice this dish a bit more aggressively - it's
spicy, with extra berbere in the butter sauce to coat each strip of beef.
$20.85
Zuresh Ekefegn
A unique stir-fry pairing beef with greens. In this dish, strips of beef are sautéed with finely chopped
spinach (a nod to Ethiopian "gomen besiga") in a spiced butter sauce. The spinach wilts and clings to
the beef, adding a delightful earthy flavor and slight silkiness to each bite. It's mildly spiced and utterly
satisfying - think of it as Ethiopian steak and greens.
$19.75
Zigni Wot
A beloved beef stew that's all about depth of flavor. We slow-cook small cubes of beef in a rich,
crimson sauce made with berbere, tomatoes, and onions. As a wot, it stews for hours, allowing the beef
to become fork-tender and the sauce to develop a spicy, slightly smoky profile. Our Zigni Wot is hot,
with layers of chili warmth and a hint of sweetness from cooked-down onions. This hearty stew warms
you from within - a must-try for fans of beef chili looking for an East African twist.
$20.85
Center Cut Steak
A generous 12oz center-cut sirloin steak seasoned with Ethiopian flair. We marinate the steak in honey
wine (tej) and a touch of berbere. It's served alongside a fresh house salad and one of our vegetable
sides. The steak itself is juicy and infused with hints of cardamom, black pepper, and garlic from the
marinade. This dish combines the comfort of a classic steak dinner with the unique aromas of Ethiopian
spices - truly the best of both worlds for those who crave a good steak but also want to stay in the
Ethiopian culinary adventure.
$27.95
Queen's Mahi Mahi
A fillet of mahi-mahi, pan-seared in olive oil until golden and flaky. We season this mild, buttery fish
with a cardamom, black pepper, and our signature Ethiopian roasted garlic sauce that features a hint of
berbere. The “Queen's” preparation means you get a perfectly cooked fish that's not too spicy. Served
with a house salad and two veggie sides.
$24.15
Italian Entrees
Spaghetti Marinara
Al dente spaghetti noodles topped with our homemade marinara sauce. We simmer ripe tomatoes with garlic, basil, to craft a marinara that's uniquely Sheba's. It's tangy, lightly herbed, and comforting. Simple, classic, and satisfying - this spaghetti marinara is a hit with kids, or as a mellow break between spicier Ethiopian bites. Add meatballs if you'd like a heartier touch.
$13.15
Spaghetti Bolognese
Hearty and rich, our Bolognese is an Italian-Ethiopian fusion. We take Sheba's marinara sauce and prime Ethiopian ground beef that's slow-cooked with Italian herbs to give it a subtle Ethiopian twist for depth. It's served over spaghetti with a sprinkle of Parmesan on top. Meaty, savory, and soul-warming, this dish combines the comfort of Italian home cooking with a hint of Ethiopian warmth. You can also choose Tagliatelle Bolognese if you prefer flat ribbon noodles to spaghetti - same delicious sauce, different pasta texture.
$14.25
Ravioli (Cheese)
Delicate pasta pillows stuffed with a blend of Italian cheeses (ricotta, Parmesan) and herbs. We serve our cheese ravioli under a blanket of our house marinara, then bake it with an extra sprinkle of mozzarella on top for a nice melt. Each bite is a lovely mix of creamy cheese and tangy tomato.
$14.25
Fettuccini Alfredo
A creamy classic. We toss fettuccine noodles in a luxuriously creamy sauce made from butter, garlic, Parmesan cheese, and a touch of basil. It's silky, rich, and coats every strand of pasta. Add grilled chicken on top if you'd like some protein ($4 extra). This dish is indulgent and comforting - a perfect choice when you crave something familiar and mild.
$15.35
Lasagna
Our lasagna is layered with tender pasta sheets, seasoned ground beef, a rich tomato-meat sauce, and bechamel (white sauce) for creaminess. We finish it with a generous topping of melted mozzarella. Each slice is comfort incarnate - cheesy, saucy, and baked to bubbling perfection. Served with a side of French bread to mop up the sauce. Buon appetito (or, as we say in Amharic, “Enibla” - let's eat)!
$16.45

$17.55
Beef and Rice
We sauté beef cubes with onions, tomatoes, and mild spices, then ladle them over seasoned rice pilaf.
