I absolutely loved eating here! I had the awaze tibs entre with the side of salad that comes with it. The awaze tibs tasted buttery, savory, and full of rich detail with a combination of noteworthy spice and sweetness that comes from beef tips being cooked in awaze hot sauce. The service was great while the dining atmosphere was also extremely authentic with great Ethiopian posters of artistry and other wall decor. I am so glad I came here to eat!

We’ve been regulars here for years and have never once had a bad experience. You feel the love of the staff and chefs. The food is outstanding and they’ll make you feel like family. I’m not a vegetarian, but usually order only veggie here because it’s just so amazing! I’ve eaten Ethiopian in more obvious places like DC and NY, yet Lalibela is the best of the best.
