Best Ethiopian food (& Ethiopian restaurant experience) that I ever had! The interior is very chic & modern, with food very artfully arranged on the platters. We had the tasting menu for two, & it was just the right amount to feel the right amount of full. We enjoyed a bottle of South African wine, which we did not have a chance to try before, & it made for a lovely pairing. Staff was excellent & attentive; no problem at all not being able to speak very good French. We felt like guests rather than customers. If we were local, this would be a regular spot for us. Next time we are in Montreal, we will be back.

Great hotel in a walkable neighbourhood close to great shopping, parks, & cafes & restaurants. The room was very comfortable & the service was super friendly & attentive. We'd recommend hotel Kutuma for those looking for a comfortable stay in Montreal's Le Plateau. Blue Nile restaurant, attached to the hotel, is also recommended for an excellent meal. Food, service, decor all made for a memorable experience.

🤩❤?❤? Succulent!!!! Quelle belle découverte. Nous avons prit le Dégustation Deux Services Viande & Végé. Tout, sans exception, était délicieux & si savoureux. J'ai rarement été aussi épatée. Rapport qualité-prix, c'est un très bon deal!

La terrasse en fleurs & la musique m'ont aussi beaucoup plut. Nous ferons découvrir ce restaurant à nous amis assurément. En espérant être à nouveau servi par Kevin. Il était extrêmement professionnel & bienveillant.😊

Wow, la cuisine! On sent vraiment l'amour que le chef y met. Excellent service chaleureux & experimenté de Kevin. Ambiance & bonne musique au rendez-vous. Prix exceptionnels pour la qualité. C'est de'la cuisine de chef' à petit prix! Je ne peux pas croire que j'ai attendu aussi longtemps avant de venir ici! Je le connaissais depuis le debut des années 2000. Je regrette lol! C'est le genre de restaurant que vous voudrez revenir avec tous vos amis. Bravo à toute l'équipe.
