Agelgil Ethiopian Restaurant (St. Paul, MN) - Ethiopian restaurant in St Paul - 2585 7th St W, USA

We ordered the sambusa for an appetizer, two 21's and one 39. The sambusas were the best thing we ate out of the entire meal. The beef in 21 was so tough and chewy but we didn't want to say anything because we already had to wait an extra 30 minutes to get rice with our meals since it wasn't ready, we were there at 5:30 pm so during dinner. We were fine to wait and didn't have an issue we just didn't want to wait again. The 39 was more tender probably because it is lamb which is a softer meat. Anyways, we sat for another 30-45 minutes waiting for the check. It was just not a good experience. Even though the food has a good flavor, the meat was terrible for the beef.

We had a group of 8 friends visit Agelgil for the first time for dinner. Some had not had Ethiopian food before, so it was a new experience for them. The food was really fantastic, authentic yet still accessible for the newbies. The service was also so friendly - they made an effort to make sure everyone was enjoying their food and having a good time. Portion sizes are large and a great value too. We will be back!

We picked up a takeout lunch from Agelgil to enjoy outside on the first beautiful, glorious day of Spring in 2023, and the quality of the food was only matched by the amazing sunshine and warm weather. The staff who took and serviced our order was so helpful and polite, we wish we could have stayed and eaten at the restaurant (but alas the outdoors called). The spice and texture of the food was perfection, each bite better than the last. We loved it and hope to come back again soon!

Yes! This place has delicious food and good service. We got the veggie platter and it was great. We also got the tea/coffee combo which woke me right up. The restaurant itself is very clean and looks well put together. Highly recommend.

I eat here often, especially after returning from a flight from MSP airport, which is only a 10 minute drive away. Food is great and I've never been disappointed, service is fast and friendly. Ambience is simple, not fancy. The veggie platter is what I usually get and I'm happy they have a few vegetarian/vegan options.

Agelgil restaurant has the best food we just have lunch there every dish we try was amazing the service was great very friendly the gebena coffee was outstanding I highly recommend. Thank you Agelgil restaurant

I went here a while ago, and I really needed to think about how i feel about the place. My overall consensus is that it is awesome. The lovely waitress who didn't understand what we were doing there was so kind. Someone I was with wanted a side order of cottage cheese" eww idk why" . But to make sure that it would be like the waitress brought a small sample of it to try so we didn't waste our money which I really appreciated. We got this dish the was like a Bready, meaty, and peppery mixture. Inside the mixture had cut up pieces of the same bread meant to consume the dish with. Very good, huge portions. Total bill was like 13 bucks and this plate could feed 3-5 people. We got #26/27.

The staff was very friendly and the food was great! We got the beef and veggie sampler. Nice that they have Ethiopian beer too, it was great to try
