Abyssinia

The chair cushions are worn through, and the service is leisurely, but it all adds to the comfortable charm at Abyssinia, where locals know they can find some of the best Ethiopian food in Philly. Read more

Vegetarians and meat eaters alike will enjoy the dishes served here. A friendly atmosphere and a full menu of vegetable , chicken , beef and lamb dishes , plus an eclectic selection of beer . Read more

Great food and service at a very reasonable price. Beer selection at restaurant and upstairs bar are both excellent. Suggest going with a group for family style experience to try many dishes.

Philly is a great place for Ethiopian and Abyssinia has many vegan options . Plus there's a funny little bar above the restaurant certain Vegansaurs used to frequent in their salad days.

Esquire: this beloved Ethiopian spot makes you feel as though you've joined a family for dinner in their home—even if you happen to be dining alone.

There's usually a special fish of the day so don't forget to ask. The food is delicious!

Always a wait for the food, but worth it. Definitely go upstairs to fiume for after dinner drinks and feel cooler than you probably are.

One of Philly’s best Ethiopian spots . Wander upstairs to their under-the-radar bar , Fiume , for Thursday night bluegrass and a weekly special .

Great vegetarian options ! Authentic Ethiopian food !

Minimal food wait time and they even noticed I was vegetarian and gave me a platter separate from my meat-eating friend. Best-spiced Ethiopian food I've eaten!

The veggie platter rules. It's my go-to meal each time I visit Abyssinia! Definitely try it!

Great place for sharing, rather than getting individual entrées. The upstairs bar is super cozy .

Best with 2+ people. Get any meat dish with the veggie combo - perfect combination.

The food is fantastic and jazz at the bar was really enjoyable.

Occasional live music upstairs.

Get the chicken tibs w injera or the veg platter..if u want it spicy , u really have to tell them SPICY !!! They never seem to make it hot enough, because they don't think I can handle the heat.

Love the veggie combo !

Delicious! Enter through the side if you don't want to go through the bar

Very nice place to enjoy traditional Ethiopian food .

The best part about the place is that it wears the tiny whiskey bar Fiume like a hat. Read more

Food is good so I don't mind the wait. Get the veggie combo platter! You're welcome.

Great for buying beer to go

Best Ethiopian food in the city but the service can be very slow wheb it's crowded so go when you're not in a rush.

Delicious and homestyle :)

The service is usually slow.
