"Little Ethiopia institution Meals by Genet chef Genet Agonafer managed to keep her restaurant afloat by offering takeout during the COVID-19 pandemic. She closed her dining room for nearly four years before finally reopening it in January 2024 for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday dinners. Though takeout is limited to weekend lunch, longtime fans of one of Los Angeles’s most celebrated Ethiopian restaurants can enjoy freshly made injera, sprawling vegetarian platters, tender beef tibs, and ravishingly delicious chicken doro wat three evenings a week. Those who book dinner at one of the restaurant’s glass-topped tables can take in Agonafer’s delicious cooking inside an intimate room filled with tastefully appointed African artwork. — Matthew Kang, lead editor" - Eater Staff
