Merkato is a must-visit restaurant for delicious Ethiopian cuisine in LA. The veggie combo with fried fish is a light and fresh option that won't disappoint. The atmosphere is relaxing with great music, good coffee, and friendly service. The restaurant has two entrances, one leading to a store where you can buy Ethiopian spices, incense, and food to go. The staff and the owner are remarkable, creating a welcoming environment where you feel like part of the family. The quality of food and prices are excellent, making it worth the drive no matter the distance. If you want authentic Ethiopian food and top-tier ambiance, Merkato is the place to go.
