A journey of flavors, culture, and community in the heart of Manchester
My name is Samrawit Tekle, a female entrepreneur, the proud owner and operator of Asmara Bella, an Eritrean and Ethiopian restaurant dedicated to introducing the world to the beautiful cuisine and culture of Eritrea and Ethiopia.
My dream is to bring my people’s food to Manchester — but that’s not all I want. I also want to create an environment in which we can all come together to celebrate a common love for good food.
Offering customers a truly unique dining experience, Asmara Bella serves dishes from the Horn of Africa, including injera, a traditional sourdough bread that has to be eaten with your hands. Located in Northern Quarter, it’s the ideal place for a quiet meal with family or friends, or to take a date, thanks to its warm ambiance and welcoming staff.
We welcome you to stop by whenever you’re in the mood for authentic Eritrean food!
Every recipe is rooted in traditional methods passed down through generations, ensuring authentic flavors in every bite.
We believe in the power of shared meals to bring people together, creating connections that transcend cultural boundaries.
From sourcing the finest spices to careful preparation, we maintain the highest standards in everything we do.
Injera, a spongy sourdough flatbread made from teff flour, serves as both plate and utensil. This nutritious grain is native to Ethiopia and forms the base of every traditional meal.
Traditional meals are shared from a common plate, emphasizing community and togetherness. This style of eating brings people closer and encourages conversation and connection.
Our cuisine is renowned for its complex spice blends, particularly berbere—a mixture of chili peppers, garlic, ginger, and over a dozen other spices that creates the signature heat and depth of Ethiopian cooking.
Every recipe is rooted in traditional methods passed down through generations, ensuring authentic flavors in every bite.
