LALIBELA RESTAURANT ETHIOPIAN CUISINE Lalibela Ethiopian Restaurant was started with one goal in mind, bring the amazing and unique Ethiopian…
Lalibela Sampler - SO GOOD!!! My husband and I love Ethiopian food but where we moved, we can't get it so during our recent visiti to the city, Lalibela was our first stop and we highly recommend!
The sample platter has everything - protein, veg, complex carbs. Perfectly portioned and sooo well seasoned. Plus it's family owned which means a lot to us.
Highly recommend ordering from this place! Wonderful.

High-quality typical Ethiopian, with friendly people at pickup. Veg combo comes with two big injera (which was plenty) and is lower in spice level than many Ethiopian places - only the shiro was intensely flavorful. But all made with great ingredients and obvious care.

the Doro Wot only had 2 drum sticks for $21 flavorless. The injera was cold hard, not edible. the Vegetable Combo was undercooked. i hurt my teeth on the carrots ans potatoes. Instead of collards for the gomen they used hard a poorly choped and poorly seasoned kale. This was a complete waste of money. I'm so annoyed door dash didn't give me a full refund. Not worth it.

The injera came in a ziplock bag which was just surprising and it tasted a lil old which is strange cause I ordered this right when they opened. The food overall did not taste very fresh. The sambusa was also undercooked and soggy and has a foul aftertaste. And the packaging of the veggie sampler made everything run together to where I can't distinguish what's what. The veggies are also oily and watery somehow and it's all just a mess. I am deeply disappointed cause I spent over $50 on this. I love Ethiopian food and haven't had it in forever so I was excited and now I feel betrayed. I do not whatsoever recommend this place.

I've been eating Ethiopian for over 35 years from Ethiopian restaurants from New York to Paris to London. This is definitely in the top three of restaurants I can think of through the years that are absolutely memorable. And I've only ordered in from Lalibela! I know I'll go there one day and eat in, and I can only imagine how good it must be to actually eat at the restaurant. Love this place! Highly recommend.
