lentils, veggies, stewed meats, injera bread... all are excellent. dishes can be made mild and utensils can be provided for those less adventurous. been to this place a million times and have never been disappointed. wine and beer served…
Nyala Ethiopian Cuisine is a taste sensation!
Bob W from Insider Pages   2009-08-20T05:44:00-07:00
The flavors at Nyala Ethiopian Cuisine are so fresh and layered. All of the different flavors meld so well, but you still get the individual tastes from dish to dish. Go, try a few different foods, even the goat is great!
flavor explosion

In Little Ethiopia there are tons of restaurants to choose from, but Nyala is the best! They catered my birthday party and were just wonderful to me and my guests. The food is outstanding and very reasonably priced. They come highly…

I was with my family of four on fairfax when we decide to try some ethiopian food, when we entered nyala the place looked nice and clean, we ordered the part platter for 4 people for $45. When we've received the food we were in shock, the…
Yummy!

I really liked the food and the atmosphere at Nyala. We ordered the meat & veggie combo plates and the asa fish dish. The asa fish was my favorite, probably because it was the most spicy. My friend loved the lentils and the cabbage on the…
Best Ethiopian in Los Angeles!

This is my favorite Ethiopian restaurant on Fairfax. The food is deliccious, the prices reasonable, the atmosphere is very nice and the waitstaff friendly. They have large sampler platters for both vegetarians and meat eaters - a real…
Great Ethiopian Restaurant

Are you in the mood for something ... well, different? If you've never tried Ethiopian cuisine, you're missing out! Take your family and drive them over to Nyala off of Fairfax. Ethiopian specialty is their dish called "Kitfo", which…
My favorite place for Ethiopean
dmenkes from Citysearch   2006-11-02T10:14:11-08:00
I was first introduced to Ethiopean food and Nyala's a couple years ago. It remains my favorite on Fairfax. The food is really good and the prices are reasonable. Parking is extremely difficult, however. We've shown up just before noon to…
Good ethiopian

Not ususally a fan of ethiopian food, this place was quite good, and served reasonable portions for the...
Try Ethiopian here first
hajesterha from Citysearch   2006-09-28T17:00:00-07:00
Don't know how the last person spent $40 on one thing, considering I always split a veggie AND chicken platter, with wine, for under $30 (and have leftovers!). Basically, there are a bunch of good Ethiopian places in a row along this part…
mediocre food, small portions and inattentive service
aagg99 from Citysearch   2006-07-23T17:00:00-07:00
Maybe it was because it was late Sunday afternoon, or that the waitress's boyfriend, cousin whatever, had come in for a drink or the cook had only a little of the food (vegie platter for 4 $40 )but our Waitress was just not there and…
Best Ethiopian restaurant in LA!!
clockwork from Citysearch   2006-02-12T16:00:00-08:00
Hands down the best Ethiopian restaurant in Little Ethiopia on Fairfax. Since the first time I came here I've been hooked! The atmosphere of this family owned restaurant is very traditional and beautiful. Very nice and courteous staff.…
Real Ethiopian Food is NOT this bland...
worldwidefoodie from Citysearch   2005-10-28T17:00:00-07:00
One of the best things about Ethiopian food is the incredible spices that are used to prepare it. However, Nyala is definitely not the place to get good Ethiopian. I went with some out of town guest who wanted to try Ethiopian for the…
I didnt care for it
melissaranftle from Citysearch   2005-08-15T07:05:50-07:00
I had never had Ethiopian food before and wanted to try something different. This place was nice and the service was fine but I didnt care for the food. We ordered the sampler since we didnt know what to get. The chicken was ok but the…
One of my favorite restaurants
Marcus H from Insider Pages   2005-08-02T23:04:00-07:00
In the Little Ethiopia section of Fairfax, there are several Ethiopian restaurants all stuck together in a row. Unfortunately, I've never tried most of them because Nyala is so tasty and affordable. The waitstaff is friendly, the menu…
Authentic Ethiopian Food - Great Price!
Christi L from Insider Pages   2005-05-25T17:29:00-07:00
Wonderful flavors and beautiful people are abundant in Nyala restaurant. They offer a great lunch special - a vegetarian buffet with hot and cold Ethiopian dishes, spiced to perfection. PROS: Great prices, dancing, dining, lunch…
Worth the visit-interesting experience
jasoneskin from Citysearch   2004-10-02T16:44:09-07:00
Waitstaff was very nice, explained everything for us and made some great recommendations. As for the food, I'd recommend getting their "proposed" list for 4 people. There are no utensils here, everything is eaten with the special…
Just try it, you'll like it!!
bluegazer from Citysearch   2004-05-10T11:57:00-07:00
Ethiopian food is so unique and when it's good, it is very good, and when it's not so good, it is time to leave. I've been to Nyala on four occasions over the last few years and was recently reminded that have always had a GREAT meal…
My FAVORITE Ethiopian restaurant!
bruingirl from Citysearch   2004-04-28T17:00:00-07:00
Not that I've been to THAT many other Ethiopian restaurants, but I've been to enough to know that this is one of the better ones. The food is absolutely fantastic!!!! The ambience has gotten better over the years with walls that have…
Yum!
jon5cts from Citysearch   2003-07-27T15:13:18-07:00
Parking is a real drag anywhere on Fairfax, but it is worth the trouble to find it for Nyala. The food is terrific here and the prices are reasonable. The service is friendly enough, although not extremely attentive. You'll have to…
