Was Michael Bridges at Selam a mag?
Absolutely wonderful food! My nephew and I stopped by for dinner before attending a 9pm set at Twins Jazz. We ate at the bar watched a little soccer and chatted with the bartender who was very friendly. She explained each dish and took our picture. I had the combination platter with chicken and my nephew had the vegetarian combination platter. The servings were both delicious and filling. If you want some really good... View all feedback.
What Nai C dislikes about Selam:
Our food was Delicious and the chef reminds me so much of my own father. They do need to print new menus to reflect the new pricing but that's minor. Well the portion of Chicken Tesebhi Dorho wasn't as much as I'm used to having but the flavor was perfect for where we were at. View all feedback.

The food was above and beyond delicious. The atmosphere was quiet and welcoming, thank you!
