I am new to Ethiopian food, and I couldn't tell you the name of any of the dishes, even if you showed one to me right now, but I absolutely loved this restaurant. The food was great! We had a combination veggie/meat dish that was probably enough food to feed 6 people. Not only was there a lot of food, it was good quality food. The vegetables were fresh and the meats were tender. Everything was well seasoned and there was a wide variety of textures and so many different flavors to try. The colors were beautiful and everything was arrayed so nicely it felt like a feast.
The service was excellent and very personable. Our server was the same person who cooked the food and she answered all of our questions and was very patient with our "newness" to the cuisine.
The most amazing part is that it cost us only $25 to feed 4 people with a ton of leftovers. I couldn't believe the price for the quality of the food and excellent service. If you're looking to try something new, you really have nothing to lose by going to Blue Nile because a.) it's yummy and b.) it's so affordable.
I'll definitely visit again and actually try to pay attention to what I order next time. :)
