My partner and i stumbled upon Delish in 2023 and we’ve been coming back at least once a month ever since. Every time feels like we’re welcomed by good family friends. Living in the neighborhood is dangerous because we’re tempted to go much more often than we should! The owners are delightful, the food is consistently amazing (dine in & carry-out), and the service is always flawless. Our go-to order is the veggie combo, which comfortably feeds 2-3 people. We especially appreciate being able to access gluten free injera (it’s good to call ahead to confirm availability; they do run out on busy days).

So. Delicious. My friend and I split the fish & shrimp vatapa, while I had a side of plantains and they had a side of hush puppies. Everything tasted wonderful. The fish, especially, was cooked perfectly -- it melted in my mouth. We also enjoyed two fruity cocktails because, well, it's a rum bar. The place packed on a Thursday evening, and we were lucky that we didn't have to wait long for a table in this small restaurant. Despite how busy it was, our server was a delight. She seemed to know exactly when to check on us and when to let us eat without interruption. There were so many gluten-free things on the menu that I want to try; I will definitely go back when I'm next in Columbia City!

The best Ethiopian food in South Seattle. Plus an excellent atmosphere. The bar is awesome. Great date night spot. Totally gluten free menu and lots of vegan options. Loved it!

Their gluten free, dairy free pizza is so good, I had a hard time believing it was allergy friendly. But no reaction- it's just amazing pizza!

The service is always quick, friendly, and knowledgeable. The location is a bit cold in design, but clean, with outdoor seating, and plenty of parking. Finally their menu is great, love a good rice plate or Musubi. It's a pricey lunch, but that's the cost of quality. They could use gluten free soy sauce and labeling on their menu.
