So delicious!!! It was the perfect amount of food for 2!!! We did the option to upgrade to make it for two and we did the tofu which was delicious! The waiter was so kind as well.

The restaurant was super peaceful. It was empty when we went, but that was kind of nice. The service was great and prompt. Our food tasted very fresh and carefully prepared. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars was because, as someone who really loves Ethiopian food, I found it a little bland flavor-wise. It was still very delicious though.

First time stopping by and yummmmm! ? I've never had Ethiopian cuisine before but it was all so delicious. I tried a salad and combo with split peas, kale, lentils and curried veggies. I also got a chai tea. Highly reccommend. Staff was pleasant and welcoming. Even for non vegans this is a delicious option!

This was my first time having Ethiopian food, and it didn't disappoint.I especially loved the combination of flavors. It was very filling, but without feeling heavy or stuffed.The prices were actually unreal to me. I can't remember the last time I went out for a meal for two people, and was actually satisfied for less than $30!

Delicious food and great experience. The Garden Platter is amazing and you get to try a variety of the stews. Perfect for 2-3 people. They are also in the process of expanding the brunch/lunch menu and extending to earlier hours. Definitely check it out when you get a chance!

Mushroom combo platter with sorrel drink - I went with recommendation. It was great choice of ginger, lemon and hibiscus cold drink to try hands-on lentils, curried split peas and beet veggie medley. So many flavors!Great service and very reasonable prices!

Really, really delicious. This was my first time having Ethiopian food and I have to say, I loved it so much I wanna have it in my food staple rotation. The injera were like a spongy, sourdough pancake and addictive enough to eat without any of the entrees. And the entrees…incredibly well-seasoned and filling in a pleasant way. I got the red lentil and okra combo (sub the beet medley since the veg money was gonna take a second) and it was delicious. Highly recommend

So good! Love that it's all vegan and lots of yummy food options. Some of the best Ethiopian food in the city and very friendly service.

I'm from WV and in Columbus for a few days... I'm curious about Ethiopian cuisine and I find Nile Vegan. I have less than and Hr before they close and the restaurant is 20 mins away. I rush over with Google maps as my guide, miss the restaurant, get honked at because I'm making an illegal U-turn and just make it to the restaurant before they close.The gentleman greeted me with smiles, was extremely friendly and got my two combo orders of Tofu for one and Mushrooms for the other... With other veggies on the side.My first experience with Ethiopian food... It was amazing!! I'm stuffing my fat face wishing this was something I could request more often. The bread, 10, the veggies, 10... The flavors 1000! I doubt there is even an Ethiopian restaurant in the state of WV, PHK!!If you're in Columbus, want Ethiopian cuisine or curious like I was... Please don't hesitate to try this restaurant. I went to the Grandview location. I'd upload a picture but I'm a fatty and ate it all.

Yummy!! healthyandhearty completely vegan option. Freshly made everyday. Gluten free injera also available
Great food and staff. The food is reminiscent of Indian cooking, in that it features bold and bright flavors. The bread they use, called Injera, is a fermented flat bread. While it’s too sour by its self, when paired with the various stews and curries, it turns into something truly special. Give ‘em a try!

I LOVE this place, it is a go-to for me and my friends, especially when we want something hearty but still nourishing when ordering in. Lots of yummy options, but my favorites are the mushroom and chickpea dishes. You will not regret checking this place out!!
Eat It. Love It.
Excited to find vegan Ethiopian in Columbus! Great customer service. Favorites were the tofu & the mushroom. Their injera was delicious, and gluten free which was a nice surprise.

A great place for lunch or dinner. One of the more authentic African restaurants I've been to in Columbus. The employees are very nice and the food is absolutely amazing. The dining area is a little small so not ideal for large groups but perfect for dates or family.
