Philadelphia’s finest Ethiopian restaurant, and one of the finest in the region. Amsale is 28 seats — intimate, unhurried, and deeply serious about Ethiopian cuisine. The Kitfo (Ethiopian beef tartare with spiced butter) is the signature. The injera is made fresh. The combination plates allow you to experience the full range of Ethiopian flavors in a single meal. Bring a bottle. Bring someone worth a long dinner. Reserve in advance.
