I loved this restaurant, the service was great, we asked about the flavor of a lentil dish and the server brought us a sample of the spice used in it!! They were all very friendly as well, and didn’t rush us even though the restaurant was busy.
Atmosphere was good too, a ton of people but it was spaced out so we weren’t crowded.
Lastly, the food was really yummy.
This was my first time trying ethiopian food and I’d definitely do it again.
Everything was flavorful and they gave us enough bread.
Also liked that they had hand sanitizer on each table! Would recommend the vegetarian combo, but the meat options looked good as well! Overall really pleased with my experience here!

Had a wonderful dinner here! Like others mention, food is served shared on a bed of injera (the teff flour pancake-like bread) to be eaten traditionally without utensils.
Service was wonderful, and we tried the veggie combo (if you choose 6, you get all of the options), lentil sambosas, and the lega (beef) tibs.
Our favorite was the lega tibs and stewed red lentils as well as the chickpea stew.
The lega tibs only comes spicy, but it was the perfect spice level to still be able to taste the flavors of the dish.
Delicious & reasonably priced - we’ll be back!

Blue Nile is simply a must-visit in Boston! Exceptional food and wine, beautiful atmosphere, and the kindest staff.
This was our first Ethiopian food experience, and staff helped my husband and I navigate the menu.
So delicious and will absolutely be returning!
