This is a great little Authentic Ethiopian food restaurant. Amazing food, great service, and lots of vegan/vegetarian options! They also had multiple alcohol options and desert! My top favorite here are the chickpeas, lentils, and baklava !

Food that is definitely worth getting your hands dirty. I had never tried Ethiopian food but it was recommended to me through friends so I'm grateful to finally try and enjoy it. I loved that the meat options came with two vegetarian sides and that I could try as much of the menu as possible. I had the doro tibs with dinich and shimbra watts. The chicken was cooked well and tasted amazing along with the side dishes. It was a flavorful and fulfilling experience. I really enjoyed the food being cooked well and fast and the friendly service.

My wife, son, and I ate here few days ago. We never had this kind of food before so we decided to be adventurous and try it out. We ordered the sampler platter because we couldn’t decide what to get. When the food got to us we were really excited because it looked and smelled so good. My son is two years old and kinda picky but he dug into it which surprised us. He loved the food and so did we. This was the best restaurant that we went to while we was on vacation in Kansas City. The staff was amazing and so welcoming as well.

A wonderful and delicious experience. Thankful for the GF option, and a delicious sampler plate for 2 people. Cant wait to come back next time I am in KC.

It's only Ethiopian food, and it's so delicious. Be brave and try it, the shared plate or the buffet. Although i don't recommend it, there are other places next door and behind and across the street to eat and are less adventurous, but give Blue Nile a try, it's so good.
