Lalibela Ethiopian Restaurant

Great place to go with a group. I enjoyed introducing Ethiopian food to members of my group who had never tried it. The best part is half way through the meal when the flavors have started to blend in together, or is it the injera? All of the dishes were very flavorful and the portion size of the combination platter was easily enough for 3 to share.

Parking in the rear, away from the road. Ordered spiced tea, combination plate, veggie plate, two teas (one returned). $51.47. There are two tax lines on our receipt, that's odd. There is a city (1.5%) and state tax (5.5%). Not sure if we can add any single dishes if needed, but will likely will be full after our plates. The spiced tea is super sweet. I asked for the tea without any sweetener or sugar, it was way too sweet for me. They only have this sweet tea and that's it. The red lentil was the better of all of the dishes. The collard green, yellow lentil, green peas or beans, cabbage, salad were all okay. The lamb and beef were okay, a bit overcooked. The chicken drumstick was cooked well and was falling off the bone. Their injera is quite puffy and billowy here than most places we have been to. It's very filling with one roll. The Jalapeño and garlic is quite potent, it's good, but be prepared to smell like garlic after the small portion of it. The combination plate has small portions of all of the veggies.

Today was first time at Lalibela. And man what have I been waiting for? DELICIOUS! Right when you walk in abs smell all the aromas from spices you know you are in for a treat. They are friendly and welcoming. I got the combination platter. SO good and lots of it lol. Next time I will just go for a meat dish only as it was so much food. Can't wait !

We came in on a Sunday afternoon and were immediately seated . The place was empty with only two other tables occupied . Our orders were taken right away and we got started with a nice refreshing cup of tea. The food also arrived promptly and looked like a substantial portion . Taste wise it was just alright - I believe most items lacked seasoning a little bit . The meat however was perfectly cooked and tasted good . Overall , I have mixed feelings but knowing that the city doesn't have a lot of Ethiopian restaurants to begin with , it might be worth a try .

Love the food! I go with the Gored Gored while my girlfriend always gets the vegetarian plater.The husband and wife team always makes us feel welcome.MAKE SURE YOU TRY THE TEA!!!

Two years had passed since my visit, as I no longer live in Omaha. The aromas and flavors are as delicious as ever; a definite sign of recipes perfected over time. Thank you for the wonderful food and best wishes to you all.

A nice little mom and pop establishment. the environment is nothing fancy but can tell you will be getting good authentic food. The menu has lots of options but is not overwhelming. We got two different platters and I enjoyed the sampling of avariety of foods. The dishes were flavorful and filling. The chai tea was also to die for. if you're looking for authentic Ethiopian food, this place definitely hits the spot. You will leave satisfied and very full.

This place never disappoints. The owners are very nice. Quick to seat us and get our order. They were out of coffee but shared their personal coffee and it was delicious! We ordered the combination plate and the lamb. This was my daughters first time here. She enjoyed it. She stated that she can't get others to go with that actually like seasoning on their food. We both ate til we were beyond full and still had enough for two to-go boxes. She brought them with for some good lunches. The restaurant seats about 30 people comfortably, dimmer lights and always some nice calming music playing.

We have been to many Ethiopian restaurants in numerous states and hands down this has always been the best. We ordered the combo platter, Kitfo and Key Wot. Everything was absolutely fantastic. Their spiced tea is so delicious and unique. It is my favorite. We make a point to eat there every time we visit Omaha.

this was incredible and very unique food that you will not find anywhere else. besides the person that owns the place is a really good guy and was very helpful and kind.
