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!

Was in the area and wanted to snag some carryout to take home for my husband and I and after a…read moresearch on Yelp found this spot! It was a GREAT call. I ended up going with two of the chicken parm sandwiches, an order of the baked ziti, a tiramisu cup, and zeppole. Everything was delicious and the portions are very generous. The sandwiches alone have two fried chicken cutlets on them so half of one is more than enough for a full meal, meaning I've got dinner for tomorrow, too! The ziti was also a nice portion and I love their marinara. I was too stuffed to eat the zeppole while they were still warm but they're still excellent later, even when they're cold. I think they use ricotta in them which keeps them soft and pillowy (also another generous portion). It's carryout/delivery only, FYI. Ordering online was a snap as they have their own platform and it took about 15-20 minutes. Ran in and out and it was easy peasy and delicious.

Crispy outside with a nice soft and dense( dense in a good way) and chewy bagels, not like some places (i.e. Panera) where they are just like bread in a bagel shape. My favorite are everything and onion bagels. These freeze amazing, too. I always order the chive cream cheese, I've tried others as well, all good. Great price, too. A dozen bagels was $16!

Ambiance: welcoming, laid back Service: top notch,…read moreattentive, friendly and kind Food: pretty good, had the New Yorker with sausage egg and cheese. Prices were fair, bagel was fresh but the breakfast sandwich overall was underwhelming. I think they just heated up the sausage and eggs. Herb and garlic cream cheese was very good. Did not try the lox options, looked pretty good. Maybe next time!

They talked them up so much, and the label boasted "best" that I could not wait to bite into one. (I eat very healthy at home but I know how to get down with some food when visiting folks!) Well, the verdict is in and this fritter was incredible! The taste of the blueberry and sweet maple commingled on my taste buds and danced on my tongue like a cosmic, euphoric elixir. Each bite was better than the last and every crumb left my plate!

Michigan is full of good donuts…read more In this case, maybe also the best donuts ever. There is a reason this little shop got voted best donuts in Detroit metro. It looks unassuming from the outside, but don't let that fool you. I went in the afternoon and there were still lots of donuts available. Service was great. The chocolate glazed was A++++++. I did not try the famous apple fritter.

The old lady don't like seafood like that but this trip was more about our mothers. Her mom couldn't make it, so it was just me, my lady & my mom. I seen the fried catfish with shrimp étouffée & knew that's what I wanted. My mom had the jambalaya & kept stealing my etouffee off my fish. Lol That shit was fire!!!!!! It was so fire we ordered shrimp etouffee with rice for her to go. My lady had a pulled pork poe boy with fries. She said she enjoyed it but I couldn't read her reactions. I think she was a lil tired. We also had beans & rice to go. My service was also good. He was prompt knew the menu & brought the check fast. The restaurant is shotgun style with tables all in one side. If you have a party of 25 or under your good anything over that is pushing it. They have a bar area that's long as the fucking restaurant with what seems like a decent selection but i only drink beer with my seafood so I'll have to get buzzed up some other time. I'll be back soon tho. The cook needs a fucking raise!!!!!!!!! Damn I just thought about it. I wonder if they serve eggs? Hard boiled, poached, scrambled? I'm asking next time. The tartar sauce/remoulade hit so muthafuckas hard tho. I wish took more of it home. *They should make a spicy version IMO, I could only imagine having it with a lil more pop
