“Not bad value for money, a lot of food, nice variety. Intriguing cuisine. Very nice if you're looking for something different and an authentic African experience. It is Ethiopian and Eritrean cuisine. They have quite a lot going for vegetarians. There isn't really parking but there is a large car park very nearby. Unfortunately they are not serving alcohol at the moment.”
“Fantastic food. My favourite restaurant in Teesside. It's not a vegan/veggie place, but it's completely safe to eat here if you are. They know what vegan means (not just pick the bits of chicken out!). Superb.”
“We eat here extremely frequently as the food is so incredible. Try as we might we can’t recreate it! The staff are also lovely. Highly recommend visiting here, it’s our absolute favourite place to eat. The coffee ceremony is also a good experience.”
“Delicious vegan food, excellent service and good advice (I wasn't used to eating Ethiopian food). The coffee was perfect too So get ready to use your hands and really enjoy your food”
“First time trying Ethiopian cuisine and I’m so glad we finally tried it.We ordered a sharing platter for two.The food took awhile to be served but it’s because Salam cooks everything fresh.Additionally their portion is huge.The platter came with lots of meat variety and we had to eat it with the injera which is the flat bread.The flat bread is so soft, taste a bit sour but when eating it with meat options that we had ordered the combination worked so well together.Hence it’s a 10/10 for me. Afterwards we ordered traditional Ethiopian coffee.The coffee tasted so good with the ginger power and they do not have any milk in their coffee.The coffee came with popcorns that are freshly made.Overall it’s a 10/10 for me as well. The highlight for me was the staff working that night, they were brilliant.After she found out we were trying Ethiopian food for the first time she got so excited and she took the time to explain everything to us, which we really appreciated. The only thing that everyone should be aware is that Salam only accepts cash.So made sure you have cash in hand with you.If not you’re welcomed to make your way to Sainsbury to withdraw cash. I would highly recommend everyone to come and try Ethiopian food with Salam.”
