  1. Lalibela

    Ethiopian

    An Ethiopian restaurant sitting quietly in the Little Ethiopia stretch of Fairfax, where injera-lined silver platters arrive on the table and a fork is beside the point. The family-run team keeps the room simple and lets the food argue for itself, which it does. The kitfo draws regulars back, and the Michelin Guide gave it a Bib Gourmand. Come with a group large enough to order widely, or you'll spend the meal regretting what you skipped.

    Two honors, in evidence:

    The record strongest first

    One number, weighted & current 77

    How we score

    The dishes from the writeups


Nearby in the record closest first

          Best Place Score
