The best Ethiopian food in Canada, according to the experts: the Michelin Guide, Condé Nast Traveler, and Vancouver Magazine have all weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Le Virunga comes out on top, and the good stuff runs deepest in Vancouver and Montréal.

Kilimanjaro Snack House and Fassil hold the next two places. Vancouver Magazine shows up on more of this list than any other guide, with Condé Nast Traveler next.

  1. Rank 1. Le Virunga

    Ethiopian

    A mural of the African continent covers the back wall, and the menu follows its logic from there. This intimate dinner-only restaurant runs on a pan-African kitchen where Quebec ingredients meet sub-Saharan spices, game meats, and native vegetables you won't find elsewhere in Montreal. The wine list is exclusively South African, which is either a commitment or a statement, possibly both. A Michelin Selected Restaurant.

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
