This family-owned and operated restaurant has been serving up Ethiopian delicacies for more than 40 years- ideal for vegans and meat lovers alike. The Blue Nile all you can eat platter is great for both groups and first dates, there's a coziness to this restaurant that is a rarity these days. Offering a full bar, the Ethiopian tea is a must, to try at least once, even if you're not a tea drinker. Open Wed-Sun.

Had never had Ethiopian food before I came here - so I can't necessarily speak to the authenticity…read moreof the food, but I CAN speak to the fact that it is delicious. Awesome for vegetarians, since the main platter of all-you-can-eat dishes is fully vegetarian. You can add meat dishes on an a la carte basis, but I have never felt the need. I always have to make sure not to eat any other bigger meals earlier in the day before coming here, because I want to be able to enjoy multiple rounds of food if possible! :) It's also so fun to step into the full experience of eating with your hands. Sometimes the service can be slow. But I have always found the staff to be very kind and courteous. So, if you're in the mindset of having a relaxed dinner experience, then you'll have a great time! The vibes are calm and there's usually relaxing music playing. Side note: they have gift certificates as well!

The 2 lady employees informed us their kitchen was closed and turned to my daughter and said we can't get carry out. Because I am thinking maybe I heard them wrong. But no we couldn't. While we were sitting in the car deciding where we were going next 1 of the employees came outside to the car and said we can get carry out. I politely said no thank you. Apparently some restaurants are doing good business turning away customers while they're still open. I wouldn't go back not even for carry out. F+++

Decided to get the meat sampler to get a feel for Ethiopian cuisine and I liked all three meats. Two beef and one chicken. Definitely the beef was better, very rich braised beef type of dish. The injera bread is oddly addictive. Kind of spongy but with a fermented kick. Perfect to parcel up some of the meats. I also got some lentil soup, was tasty but fairly similar to Arabic lentil soup but maybe with some cabbage in it. Look forward to trying more dishes- the lamb has been highly recommended by a friend.
