"Dahlak in West Philly is a casual Ethiopian restaurant that feels like someone’s living room—one that just happens to have a bar in the corner. Order some affordable, delicious food like beef tibs and berbere stew that's brought out on huge platters atop injera bread. Along with a full bar that gets pretty crowded on most nights, the restaurant also has a ton of events where everyone who shows up already seems to be friends. There are concerts, poetry readings, and a weekly karaoke night that ends when the last person finally lets go of the microphone—which is usually pretty late." - candis mclean

"Known for its popular backyard beer garden, the Eritrean/Ethiopian restaurant on Baltimore Avenue will open its outdoor space on June 19, with room for about 50 and reservations available though not required." - Sarah Maiellano
"A short drive from Bartram’s Garden is West Philadelphia’s Baltimore Avenue where you’ll find an astonishing variety of restaurants: family-run Thai-Laotian spots, bustling Indian places with loyal fans, and cafes serving gluten-free brunches all within a few blocks. Dahlak is one of Palmisano’s top picks; part lively bar, part outstanding Ethiopian restaurant, it’s been drawing folks from all over the city for three decades now. The best part? The chilled out, open-air patio at the back, where strings of lights glow after dark, and you can settle in with a beer and an enormous platter of injera heaped with tongue-tingling meats and veggies to share." - Vox Creative
