Beteseb is a cozy, family-run spot where you can dig into flavorful Ethiopian dishes served in generous portions, accompanied by relaxing tunes and a welcoming vibe.
"Located in Silver Spring, MD, Beteseb offers a moderately spiced doro wat, complemented by a zesty green salad and Ethiopian beers." - ByLenore T. Adkins
"Silver Spring is home to one of the largest concentrations of Ethiopian restaurants around D.C., and there’s no better option than Beteseb. Order up the kitfo — spiced raw beef — and vegetarian platters, then use tangy injera bread to scoop up cabbage, collards, and spicy lentils." - Tierney Plumb, Eater Staff
"Consistently ranked as one of the best Ethiopian restaurants in the D.C. region, Beteseb features a welcoming dining room with live music and plenty of injera to go along with the fun. Try the derek tibs with chunks of lean beef and sauteed with onion, tomato, and green pepper (served mild or spicy). Or sample one of several vegetarian and vegan dishes; the ever-popular veggie combo features five combinations of misir wot, kik alicha, atakilt wot, ye gomen wot, and shiro wot." - Tim Ebner
"Silver Spring has no shortage of good Ethiopian food, but Beteseb distinguishes itself with food bursting with flavor and spice. The injera is made entirely from teff grain, unlike many American-adapted injera that incorporate wheat flour. It’s open from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday to Thursday and 10 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. on Friday to Sunday. Try the breakfast firfir combo (scrambled eggs, seasoned cracked wheat, spiced bread) or buttery bula porridge." - Eater Staff, John Besche
"The excellent kitfo and vegetarian platter at Beteseb in Silver Spring." - Gabe Hiatt
