Ethiopian Restaurant · Center City West · 27 tips and reviews
Lokalty: Be sure to stop here for the best smoothies around! Also, the coffee and food are incredible -- so many great options, it's hard to go wrong.
Kali Morgan: Not only yummy Ethiopian food (plus luncheonette sandwiches, etc) but also some of the best coffee around (try the skinny white Micha). Also super friendly and FAST (unlike other restaurants)
Philadelphia Magazine: Embrace the Ethiopian specialties like dorowat (peppery stewed chicken), zilzil tibs (beef strips sautéed with traditional herbs), and colorful vegetarian stews (get the four-dish combo). Read more.
Jenna- Lyn Lyons: I love this place. I come here all the time. Early bird special are umbeatable. Food is great, though I don't love the omelettes. Crab cakes are to die for.
Brian Shumsky: Who remembers this location in the 90's as Friendly's Restaurant. I use to go there and get their Mint chocolate icecream monster.
Jasmine Lang: I love this place. Everything is so tasty and the salad bar always has something new. Son't even get me started on the desserts. Sooooo delicious!!!
