Good food , quite big portions. Service really bad, except one guy, who was the one bringing & explaining the food. Long time before order was taken, things were forgotten & took really long to refill our empty water glasses. NO good at all from that perspective.

La qualité de ce restaurant ne se dément pas au fil des années : une cuisine originale & savoureuse à laquelle les épices apportent une touche d'exotisme féérique. Le seul parfum de ces épices à notre entrée dans le restaurant suffit à nous mettre en appétit. & le fait de n'avoir besoin ni de couteau ni de fourchette pour manger les plats déjà découpés sur des rouleaux d'un pain léger & moelleux complète l'atmosphère rendue très agréable par un judicieux choix de vins.

Ma troisième fois à ce restaurant & je n'ai pas encore été déçue. Le Nil Bleu est un incontournable pour un repas végane exceptionnel! Tous ceux à qui j'ai recommandé ce restaurant ont été enchantés! Des saveurs exotiques qui nous font voyager sans sortir de Montréal, j'adore & j'en redemande!

A very relaxed ambience with great customer service. From the moment we entered the door, the waitress welcomed us & made us feel comfortable. We had the tasting appetizers & main dish, which gave us the opportunity to enjoy the various delicious cuisines on the menu. My partner & I agree we will definitely call again soon!
