I have brought everyone to this place and they have loved it. Since they have moved the service isn't the same. I don't enjoy the food like I use to. Prices went up way higher. It's much bigger than the other location tho. It's nice. Dine in: Yes Outdoor seating: No Takeout: Yes … More
I can’t say enough about this place! From the staff to the food to the restrooms, every bit of it AMAZING! It was my first time here and our waitress explained every single detail of the experience! We had a sampler dish and WOW! The ambiance was beautiful, place is super clean. You must try the coffee. My friend doesn’t even drink coffee but LOVED theirs!! Some of the foods had a bit of spice, which I love, but nothing over the top spicy. We will DEFINITELY be back!! Glad I heard about this place on the Michael Berry show!!
Blue Nile is definitely a step out of the norm for most people, but if you like a little bit of spice and flavor in your life, you need to try it. My wife and I have usually gotten the Kitfo and Vegetarian Combination done family style. It's a spicy pile of food that will leave you stuffed and satisfied.
