So happy I found this place. Me & my boyfriend did the vegetarian platter for two. Everything was insanely great but we regret not ordering more of the caramelized veggies. They were fantastic. The drinks were also really good. I had a cocktail with mango & Berbere & he had a cocktail with soursop. & also the dessert was top notch. I'm not sure if they always have the same desserts but we had a guava chocolate cake.

Nous étions 6 & tout le monde a adoré.

Pour une première fois, les services dégustation végé ou avec viande sont une excellente option.

Elevated Ethiopian food with incredible presentation!
I've had Ethiopian all over North America & by far, this is the most thoughtful presentation & elevated ambiance.
The beef tibs & chicken were both a bit tough & dry, but the starter appetizer outshined any issue.

There were also multiple large groups here, & a gorgeous white grand piano in the back. I wouldn't hesitate to make this an occasion spot! Well done on the decor & the vibe!

I've eaten here many times & every single time, it's absolutely delicious. My partner & I take friends here who are visiting out of town & they say the same thing. The service is always great & the food has been consistently good for years. I highly recommend Le Nil Bleu.

The food was delicious & the decor exceptional. It looks like small portions but overall it was kind of ok. Beware though, we had & entrée of Chicken Sambusa & it was only 2 pieces for 10$. Service was impeccable!!
