l'Accademia
Very high-end Italian cooking in a warmly decorated room. The service is impressive, as is the wine list. Of course you pay for what you get.

La Mosaïque
Very good Ethiopian cuisine. Recommendation to enjoy your meal at the lake and the mountains.
Drink
El Cavalo Blanco
A faux-English pub no longer, the former White Horse is now a tapas bar, and a darn good one. Attention: the sangria blanco (white-wine sangria punch) is dangerously good.
