Our server was incredibly attentive, helping us order a wonderful meal while ensuring we didn't duplicate dishes as we explored the menu. They offered great suggestions that catered to the tastes of our more selective eaters. I particularly enjoyed the lamb and the vegetarian dishes, which were beautifully spiced and flavorful. If you've never tried Ethiopian food, I highly recommend this place. It truly provides a genuine community dining experience, and I can't wait to visit again!

I decided to try lalibela since my usual place, meals of genet was still just takeout. on Friday night there was no waiting time, the house made tej was surprisingly stronger than it tasted (delicious! , and we had to try the raw bark kifto, which was also good. we have made ourselves happy with delicious rest to enjoy later. I heard about the coffee ceremony in other reviews, there was no clear price for it on the menu, but I would be interested to try it sometime!

There is no better Ethiopian food in California, or anywhere else I've tried in the United States. Despite earning a Michelin star, nothing has changed. This small family-run restaurant, with a mother and her daughters at the helm, continues to serve incredible dishes. Prepare for a family-oriented experience, as your meal is made with a genuine love for sharing and nurturing those who come to their table.

My first time trying Ethiopian food. My cousin is a vegetarian so this was a wonderful meal but since I mainly tried the veggie utopia, I wished I ordered a more meatier option. The veggie utopia was aesthetically pleasing and also quite tasty especiallytheir lentils and carrot potatoes. The street gets busy and parking can be quite hard to find. Book a table now

I've found my new favorite restaurant in Little Ethiopia! The vegan sampler is outstanding; it has way more flavor compared to other places I've tried. Plus, they offer tofu tibs, which I've never seen on any other menu, and it's absolutely delicious. They've also added Impossible meat, which they use to make kitfo!

Ethiopia (via Eat the World Los Angeles) is located on a street filled with numerous dining options, but Lalibela stands out for its reliability. It feels like you're dining in a family's home, where the food is consistently delicious and made with care.

We enjoyed a plate that included Kitfo, Tibs Fir-fir, and Derek Tibs served with Kinche, a soft cracked-wheat dish on top. It was a delightful Ethiopian lunch!
