Blue Nile is a restaurant that offers a taste of Ethiopian cuisine. The Meat Combo Platter is a popular choice, featuring dishes like Doro Wot, a traditional chicken stew with a rich and spicy sauce, and Alicha Yeb'ge, a mild lamb stew. The Beef Bamia, with its tender beef simmered alongside okra and tomatoes, is another savory delight. Vegetarian options are also available. The restaurant is known for its bold flavors, and the Meat Combo Platter does a great job of showcasing the unique tastes of Ethiopian cuisine. However, slow service during lunchtime has been noted, with customers reporting waits for water, menus, and food. Despite this, Blue Nile is a recommended spot for those looking to explore Ethiopian flavors. The lamb stew and meat sambusa appetizer are specifically highlighted as excellent dishes.
