    This is my family’s favorite Ethiopian restaurant, haven’t had a place quite like it in 15 years and 11 states. Food is outstanding, great vegan and vegetarian options. Atmosphere feels very authentic, and staff is very friendly. Our family was part of their commercial or news segment that was recorded back in 2010. We still talk about the Blue Nile Cafe today
