Rahel
Included In
Though Ethiopian cuisine is generally vegan-friendly, Rahel on Fairfax is the only all-vegan restaurant in Little Ethiopia. This longtime neighborhood spot with a well-deserved cult following specializes in dishes like tender mushroom tibs and meat-free dulet. Expect a menu of vegetable and legume-focused things like shiro wot dusted with sweet paprika and spicy cayenne. Stop by for a casual weeknight meal and order the "veggie paradise" combo, which includes nine slow-cooked stews on a massive platter, plus injera and crispy sambussa. This is enough food to feed you and your midweek date, or one smart person who has a kink for leftovers.
