Rahel Ethiopian Vegan Cuisine

During our visit to Los Angeles in June 2023, we were searching for vegan food and stumbled upon Rahel. It was a pleasant surprise to find an Ethiopian vegan restaurant, the first of its kind that we had come across. Being vegetarians, we were eager to try this place as we wouldn't have to worry about any cross contamination from meat dishes since everything was vegan. We were a group of 6, with two members who had never tried Ethiopian food before and others with dietary restrictions such as no onion or garlic.

I recently dined at a vegan restaurant, which was a huge plus for me since everything on the menu was plant-based.

Coming from DC, where I have tried over half of the restaurants in the area, I believe my taste buds are reliable. The restaurant had a nice location and friendly service, but there was something missing in terms of the taste of the food.

This restaurant offers a one-of-a-kind dining experience. There were some discrepancies in the menu and requesting dishes to be oil-free was a bit challenging. However, the cabbage and zucchini dishes were delicious. I wish there were more options available on the menu and that the descriptions matched the items better. Despite this, the flavors were excellent and the gluten-free injera was fantastic. The staff was authentically friendly, although the prices were on the higher side.

This restaurant is quite lovely. It was our first time trying Ethiopian food, which also happened to be vegan. The Tibs were delicious, as was the 11-item feast (a great way to sample a variety of small dishes). Some items in the feast were a bit bland, while others were full of flavor. My favorite item was the Ethiopian coffee - I was pleasantly surprised by it. Reserve uma mesa agora

Fantastic flavors and very fast, accommodating service. Ethiopian food is some of my favorite and it's by far the most delicious kind of vegan food you can get. I got the lunch combo and it filled me up to the brim. Highly recommend the tea as well.
