Ethiopian food is intensely vibrant and flavorful. If you don’t enjoy eating without utensils, go somewhere else.  If, however, you are OK with using your fingers (with the help of a bit of spongy Injera bread) to pick up and eat spicy morsels of meat and veggies while sharing a communal meal with friends, then this is the place for you!

A dive bar that serves Ethiopian food. The neighborhood is off the beaten path in the upcoming Brewerytown section of Philadelphia. Cheap eats and cheap drinks. Not bad!
