Best Place for the Ethiopian authentic food

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.

I rarely give 5 stars for any service or product but this hidden gem exceeded my expectations. It was outstanding. In the Washington DC metropolitan area there are several Ethiopian restaurants. None of which have impressed me enough to go out of my way to return to dine again.

However the Bleu Nile authenticity took my taste buds back to my first Ethiopian dining experience.
It is a quaint yet elegant dining place. The service is very accommodating. I have to give credit to the chef whose recipes are both stimulating & mouthwatering. I have only a month to enjoy this food until next year.
I wished they offered side dishes.

We tried the meat combo for two, which comes with 5 appetizers & 5 meat & vegetable meals.
The appetizers portion sizes could have been larger, especially considering they are shared. You only got one tiny taste before it was gone. The saurteeed mixed vegetable was wonderful - we could have had that as a main.
For the meal, the portions look small but there is more than enough food. My only suggestion is to remove the chicken from the bone before serving - considering we are eating with our hands. Two people manipulating the same piece of chicken is not ideal.
The traditional Ethiopian music & artists were great to listen to while we enjoyed our meal.
Great cocktails & friendly staff.

Food was Delicious. Prices were high. I have been to comparable Ethiopian restaurants where prices were half or less.

Nil Bleu/Blue Nile is superb - so good, we went twice during the same trip to Montréal! Beautifully prepared Ethiopian food in an elegant, comfortable space, with friendly, attentive service. The two-course tasting menu offered a great selection of nine dishes from the larger menu - all were excellent & beautifully presented, with the Kitfo & eggplant appetizer both standing out. The Yebeg Alicha is now my all-time favourite lamb dish, anywhere (& the reason we went back & ordered à la carte!). The menu also offers extensive vegan/vegetarian options, & the drinks were top notch. Can't wait to go back!
