Our Reviews!
Ate here for the first time and it was excellent! We ordered kitfo (asked for rare) and the veggie platter and everything was delicious. The staff were very kind and attentive. We love Ethiopian cuisine and look forward to eating here again!
Wow! What a great addition to North St. Paul! Wonderful food, atmosphere, and service. Loved the gluten free and vegetarian options. There’s even a gluten free bread that tastes like a spongey sourdough. The owner served us and was a super nice guy. Will be back!
Had a lovely, authentic Ethiopian dining experience at Blue Nile in North St. Paul, Minnesota. BK and Selam are excellent hosts. For coffee enthusiasts, do not miss the house roasted Ethiopian coffee! Excited to continue my adventure through the menu
A slice of heaven nestled in North St. Paul! The lentil sambosa, beef awaze tibs, chicken tibs, and mixed meat/vege platter were delicious! Great service and atmosphere. Bring friends and come hungry! Will definitely be back often.
