"We’re pretty much going steady with Doro Bet on Baltimore Avenue. The Sami Dan music they play has infiltrated our dreams, the bright walls covered in African art is now our lock screen, and we’re thinking of proposing to the chefs after eating a plate of doro wot. This casual Ethiopian spot has plenty of plants, a big picture window near the front, and a handful of tables where you can eat their two varieties of teff-flour fried chicken. It’s our new go-to for a quick lunch or weeknight meal when all we want is fried chicken covered in berbere seasoning." - candis mclean
"This impressive spot in West Philly is serving up hot, crunchy, Ethiopian fried chicken that’s remarkably tasty. Come here for the awaze and buttermilk batter, as well as the juicy chicken that’s dredged in teff flour and served with a side of spicy cabbage slaw." - Eater Staff, Ernest Owens
"Simplicity with flair best describes this West Philly hot spot. At Doro Bet, their Ethiopian fried wings are seasoned with remarkable herbs and spices. Lemon-turmeric or spicy berbere wings with dill yogurt dipping sauce are instant hits." - Ernest Owens, Eater Staff
"We’re pretty much going steady with Doro Bet on Baltimore Avenue. The Sami Dan music they play has infiltrated our dreams, the bright wall covered in African art is now our lock screen, and we’re thinking of proposing to the chefs after eating a plate of doro wot. This Ethiopian spot serves pillowy mac and cheese, smothered wings, and teff flour fried chicken. It’s a great option for a quick lunch or casual weeknight meal when we’re craving peppery stewed chicken that falls off the bone." - candis mclean
"I think they have one of the best chicken sandwiches in America. It's in West Philadelphia. The restaurant is pretty cute. They do a lot of their business on takeout orders. So usually you can sit inside which is nice. And I just think that if you're going to get into some really juicy gossip, you need energy. And a chicken sandwich is a great form of energy. It's Ethiopian, so the chicken sandwich is actually breaded in injera. It has a more acidic flavor profile. I sound like a sommelier." - brennan carley
