SEVEN OLIVES

World cuisine restaurant
4/5
4 reviews

As much as the Seven Olives hotel is no longer in the competition, being too outdated, its restaurant has always been renowned, and not without reason. Conveniently close to the churches. Excellent injera are always served, and the bayenet or vegetarian dishes are well done. Ethiopian cuisine and some international dishes, as well as pizzas. Traditional setting and cool terrace in a large garden (but remember to bring mosquito repellent, which is plentiful). The atmosphere is very pleasant in the evening. Don't miss the tasty avocado juices available at all hours.

BEN ABEBA RESTAURANT

World cuisine restaurant
4/5
1 review

With its spectacular 360° view of Lalibela's surroundings, its cosmic architecture reminiscent of a space shuttle, its pleasant garden and its good food, this restaurant is worth a visit. Susan left the cold winters of Scotland to open, with Habtamu, an Ethiopian from Lalibela, this "hill of flowers"(ben abeba). The Ethiopian and international cuisine is classic(tebs with injera, shiro...), but there are also good lentil soups, quiches with onions and tomatoes, as well as a hash brown. South African wines.

UNIQUE RESTAURANT

World cuisine restaurant

The tiny, family-run Unique restaurant has no outside seating. The place is very rustic, a favorite of backpackers and budget travelers. The welcome is warm, the food homey, and that's why we sit here, to experience the flavors found in Ethiopian homes. In addition to the shiro, injera and other typical dishes served here, he offers amazing Ethiopian pizzas. Plus: Sisko gives cooking classes in his kitchens, for an even more authentic experience.
