Pour une deuxième visite, c'était encore une merveilleuse découverte de la cuisine éthiopienne. Le restaurant était très achalandé mais, malgré cela, les plats sont arrivés aussi goûteux & rapidement que s'ils n'avaient que nous à se préoccuper.

Je recommande !!

Quite simply, this restaurant is superb. Having been to Ethiopia itself several times, we can say the food at Le Nil Bleu is as good as - & often better than - the dishes served up in the restaurants of Addis Ababa! The decor of the place is calm & charming, the service impeccable & the ambience just right...above all, the food is exquisite &, for us, it's a must-visit destination each time we visit Montreal. A true gem.

Le seul point positif été la nourriture qui été excellente, nous avons mangé à notre faim.

Le service n'été pas à son maximum. C'était la première fois que nous allions dans ce restaurant & malheureusement les attentes n'ont pas été comblées. C'était pour célébrer la fête des pères, je voulais donc le gâter.

Malgré notre intérêt à avoir des conseils sur le menu, la serveuse n'avait pas l'air de vouloir donner son service. Pourtant nous étions les seuls clients dans le restaurant, un service un peu plus attentionné aurait été apprécié.
Bref nourriture top mais service à revoir.
