We first discovered Le Nil Bleu when staying at the Kutama Hotel ( which we also recommend). We had never tasted Ethiopian food before & it was love at first bite! This trip we were in Montreal for 2 nights & it was our dinner choice for the first evening.
Food is exotic & very flavourful. Service is friendly with just the right amount of attentiveness.
We highly recommend Le Nil Bleu!!

I've been going to this restaurant since 2003. The only thing that has changed is the decor. The food - is the same quality year after year. Not many restaurants keep good things going, they always feel the need to change things. Here, I was crazy for this food then, & I'm still as crazy for this food now. Always amzingly tasty, awesome portions in a very exotic decor. HIGHLY recommended - FOREVER recommended !
