My boyfriend and I fall into phases with different cuisines - we will stick to one or two cuisines for a period of time, and really scope out what Toronto has to offer. After our first experience at Lalibela, it's safe to say that we've been kickstarted into an Ethiopian phase. I love Ethiopian food!
THE GOOD:
- Awesome value. We got the lunch special for 2, which was $20 and more than filling.
- The decor inside is funky - we sat on benches that were adorned with intricate designs.
- Service was great. Our waitress was well-mannered, and our food came out very quickly.
- Last but not certainly not least, I really enjoyed our food - I felt compelled to write this review because I was sitting here, still thinking about how good that minced beef, cottage cheese and spongy injera was yesterday...
THE BAD:
- Our food was just a little on the bland side - they could have kicked it up a notch.
Overall, I'm a Lalibela fan. I can't wait to try more Ethiopian spots in the neighbourhood.
