We went to the restaurant while staying at the adjoining hotel. The food was delicious & the prices were reasonable. Not being as familiar with Ethiopian food they were more than willing to help with any suggestions on the menu.

This was our last night in Montreal & I just wanted it to be the cherry on top of a delicious sundae. I'm so glad we picked this place to end our vacation. This place is just so classy & the staff go out of their way to make you feel first class. The meals are absolutely spectacular & the place itself is very elegant. We had the sampler meal & it was just beyond what words will allow me to adequately describe. I can say every bite was amazing. You think to yourself can food really be this good? Oh my friend, it can because the staff of Le Nil Bleu do it with the greatest of easy & care every minute you're blessed to be dining here.

We were visiting Montreal from Texas & ate at this restaurant on our last night in town. The food was fabulous. We had only eaten Ethiopian food once before & weren't sure we were fans. We are now! We had the meat & vegetable tasting menu & liked everything. The spices & the freshness were very appetizing. It was a large amount of food & we couldn't finish it all as much as we wanted to. The people that worked there were very friendly & accommodating. If we lived in town this would be one of our go to establishments. Highly recommend it.
