This was our first time dining at MELEKET. Our daughter and her husband order takeout from here very frequently. Ethiopian cuisine is probably my husband’s favorite type of food, and we don’t have any good Ethiopian restaurants in Pittsburgh.
The restaurant was extremely clean. The food was fantastic.
There was no downside to this restaurant. Everything was fantastic and we will be back.
Great services, wonderful atmosphere, oh the taste food. Very welcoming stop. Suggestion of food was wonderful. Go in and try it. We sat and eat and chat. Full bar of drinks but must try the cinnamon tea.
The portion size are huge so don’t worry about not getting full of rich and kinda healthy food. The only „problem“ I had was the taste but that is something out of my personal point of view. I would like to have more spice but overall good quality.
Delicious Ethiopian food. I don't live in Silver spring but I make it a point to eat here whenever I'm visiting. One of the best restaurants I've ever been to. All the dishes are flavorful. The injera bread is perfectly balanced as well. In some places, it can be too sour but it's great at this place. Highly recommend!
Excellent food and much better than many other Ethiopian places in the area. Nounou is an excellent host who took care of us wonderfully.
It was good. Not go out of the way, great, travel from another state amazing. But decent Ethiopian food.
However, a shining highlight was the sauce that gives with the veggie sambusas. Now that was 5 star delicious.
I highly recommend this restaurant for everyone who loves Ethiopian food. We had kitfo and dulet for late break fast. My Niece had salmon fish which was so delicious. Such a testy food. Very friendly customer service. clean and fresh restaurant. I would like to say the stuff Thank you for such incredible service. You guys make our vacation unforgettable 👌
Great food (lots of it) and a great atmosphere. Soft African saxophone playing the background and a conversationally dark ambiance. We got the lamb plate and the veggie combo. Great pairing for a sample of everything. Highly recommend it for first time Ethiopian diners.
Meleket is the MOST AUTHENTIC, rich Ethiopian Cuisine that you will be able to find throughout the entire DMV. They are warm, welcoming, and will assist you from your food and premium drinks from beginning to the end of service. Most of the time you will see the owner serving and not even know that SHE is the owner, very humble and all about preserving the culture for those that would like to have a classic, Ethiopian, traditional experience. This restaurant is a hidden best kept secret. From the outside you will look at the restaurant and think of it, this looks like a small place, but once you enter it is super spacious & looks like royalty inside, crown molding, richly tiled ceilings, super spacious, beautiful splashes, textiles, and an amazing centerpiece bar. You will not be disappointed, everyone of the diaspora goes here for a full experience. You will even see the arrangement for buna (Ethiopian coffee) immediately when you walk in with the traditional settings for their coffee ceremony. I have been her 5 times already since I was referred here and will come here the rest of my life! Yes it is amazing and the food is magnificent!!! I am in food heaven here! Go there right now today!!! Their prices are right also!!!

Ethiopian restaurant DMV area here’s meleket restaurant having lunch and dinner
Gracious amounts of injera on this pick up; it was not available when it said it would be on the application yet the food quality was worth it; gracious amounts of food and seasoned perfectly... could be a little more spicy, but otherwise.. great!
Great food and prices on drinks will bring us back! Our server was a delight of a human.
Extremely delicious! Authentic! I enjoyed everything we ate on our huge injera plate. Very good misir wot, shiro wot and beets like I have never had before. Yum.
First time here. Great food presentation. Good portions and filling.
Fantastic Ethiopian Food!!! Thoroughly enjoyed the meats and veggies!!
The food is a little Americanized for my tastes... but I get it... and it was still tasty. I like the space though and the staff is good. i did have to wait nearly an hour for my takeout order, but i got there just after a party of 12 ppl ordered... and, the staffing is a bit light on a late Tuesday night (at least until you guys start visiting more! 😜) All in all... i liked it and will be back.
Very nice updated dinning room lights and Friday live music. The experience was amazing.
Seriously, always fresh and always great flavor! On top of that, the staff is very friendly and will take the time to explain the dishes. Our choice for Ethiopian food in Silver Spring.
