Lalibela Restaurant

A very rich familiar place!! First time on ethiopian cuisine experience!! ..and was winderful! Great tastes, surprising and delicious… we’ve to learn a lot about this food and culture.. Coffee, as per the ethiopian style, is a must!!

I don’t ever come to Columbus without visiting this restaurant. I’ve been to Ethiopian restaurants all over the US, and I promise that no one has anything on this spot here. HOWEVER! I don’t know who these new staffers are or if I always go at a time when the better workers are here, but the service has definitely gone down. You’re not greeted, they don’t ask if you want anything to drink, they play the saaaame song over and over and over, and the cherry on top is that there are so many incense being burned that it smokes you out of the place! It’s just too much now and I hate that because I love this restaurant so much. I miss the woman who worked there who I would always converse with, was a great hostess at the bar, and the cooks made your food quicker than they do now. Idk. I hope the next time I come, things are MUCH more improved. But just LOOK AT THIS FOOOOOOD!!!! OMG, it’s so good. TOP TIER!!

The food was good and reasonably priced. We had a great time dining here. My Ethiopian friend said food was authentic.

First time at an Ethiopian restaurant. Very interesting. Food was different but very flavorful and spicy. I liked the beef tebs and red lentils. I really enjoyed the salad. However I didn't enjoy the spongey bread or the collard greens.. Not that it is bad, just wasn't to my taste.

Food was amazing. It was not much different than the other Ethiopian restaurants I have been to..great atmosphere. Dont get upset with the location. Service was good. The best part is the fresh snacks made by a lady there. She was nice enough to explain what it was and let her to try it..I would highly suggest this place to you if you are curious to check out some good Ethiopian cuisine..

Lalibela is an authentic African restaurant. It has a great bar, a pool room, and a clean dining room. I watched the UEFA Nations League semifinal here. Congrats to Spain. Service is good and Wi-Fi is fast. Their meat is always juicy. The price and size are great. There is a large amount of injera entrees in the menu, but I am not used to have the sour taste of the injera.

Step out of Ohio and into a taste of Africa. With the smells, the guys playing pool, a few old men at the bar and authentic music streaming (or live some nights). We ended up with the meat and vegetable combo platter and it was enough for 2 people. Given that the prices are great. The vegetables were good, we asked for spicy but it wasn't. The beef was tender and very tasty. It was more of a curry taste but great nonetheless. Would recommend if you want a new experience and some good food!

This has been a welcomed culinary adventure! I loved the coffee and I still can't get over the bread, it's so neat! The coffee is roasted in house and brewed traditionally. The bread is spongy and tastes a little of vinegar. Well worth a hours drive. We had #37, #19 (both lamb) and two coffees for a total of $31.80.
