   Blue Nile is our favorite local restaurant! My wife and I always split a 6-vegetable combo and one of the meats, and they're all great. Food is always great, and customer service is always kind.

   The food was authentic and good. I would have liked a stronger flavor profile, but that is a personal bias. I'd return if I were in the neighborhood

   This is a small neighborhood restaurant with indoor and outdoor dining. The food is authentic and delicious. The waiter was helpful in explaining the menu and we all really enjoyed our meal. Great for vegan and gluten free people.

   It was a beautiful night so we sat outside but it was very noisy! Service was slow but the food was tasty so we didn’t mind and enjoyed our dinner.

   Been here many times but tonight was not the best experience. It's usually hard to get a table here, but this time, it was nearly empty. You used to be able to get a combo platter with your choice of any meat and veggie. They is not the case now. Instead you can get a veggie combo, but then you have to pay $20 additional for any meat. The serving isn't much bigger than the individual veggie servings. It's become very expensive to enjoy a variety of ethiopian foods the way I am used to. The Doro wat was cold, which was very disappointing. Also they were out of tej. Lastly, the injera was not as good as usual actually tasting a bit stale and very dry on the edges. Service was fine. I was generally disappointed this time and I worry this is the new normal here. I will consider the options for ethiopian before coming to this one again.
