Blue Nile One München in München

Fantastic food and super nice service. Local is absolutely recommended! Reservations are absolutely necessary!

Love this quiet, comfortable delicious restaurant!

The tasting plate was very tasty and the portions were well calculated. The service was friendly and accommodating. The restaurant is a little cramped, but cozy.

Very tasty food and friendly service.

Lovely food and atmosphere, be prepared to eat with your fingers.

Incredibly delicious Ethiopian food, super friendly staff and a very cozy and welcoming atmosphere. I can only recommend it!!!

Went with a friend and we got the mixed taster platter to share, which offers smaller, shareable portions of an assortment of dishes. The food was incredible, full of flavor and spices, and it was absolutely the right choice to get the sharing platter. We also got a beer called Dju Dju, which was a perfect accompaniment to the food. All this was supplemented by the exemplary service provided by the staff - fast, friendly and engaging. I for sure would come back again, armed with Bargeld, just in case! ;)

Very cozy restaurant with very friendly hosts and delicious food. Simply a nice, sociable atmosphere and an absolute recommendation! (We had the vegetarian tasting platter and that was perfect for trying lots of different things.)

We were there spontaneously in the evening during the week and were the only guests at the time. The food was very good, the service was super friendly and the portions were absolutely sufficient for us.

Very cozy atmosphere, very good food and very friendly and courteous service. If you're looking for something new and have never eaten Ethiopian before, you definitely have to go here. Blue Nile is an absolute insider tip.

Very cozy, very friendly, open team and super delicious food 🥰🙌🏼

Delicious food, something different and a very friendly team. Pleasant atmosphere. Had a nice evening with him Team :)

Looking for Ethiopian food in Munich? This is your go to place! The food is Delicious, the honey wine is magic. The tastes and perfumes of Blue Nile will make you travel to another continent while sitting at the table and enjoying a fantastic meal.

The food was tasty, we ordered Blue Nile One menu. Keep this in mind, you eat with your hands and it can cost you to eat too much "Injera" (Ethiopian bread) 😅 Service was great too! The waitress was very kind and friendly with us.

The dishes were flavourful and offered a nice introduction to Ethiopian cuisine. However, we did feel that the pricing was a bit high, especially considering the 35-euro menu did not include a drink. It would be a great improvement if this price could at least cover a basic drink like water, a soft drink, or a beer, which would make the overall experience feel better. More efficiency in service is also needed, you end up waiting long time.

Awesome food and great atmosphere.

Wonderful food. An insider tip for Munich. If you want to eat something completely different, this is the right place for you. The staff is super accommodating and nice. Gladly again.

The food is really excellent, it was our first time at One and compared to the main branch it is even more cramped. Maybe they should change that; I think the fact that you can hug the lady at the next table from your own seat says it all. Can you do something about the prices then? It's good, authentic food, you can easily charge €80 for two people.

The best Ethiopian restaurant in Munich. Great service, incredible food! Great neighborhood spot.

Very impressive, nice service and very friendly and hospitable atmosphere. I will only recommend it

Great restaurant! The food is super delicious, the portions are huge (!) and the employees are so nice! This was a 10/10 experience, I can recommend it at any time.

Small place just around Münchner Freiheit. Nice atmosphere and really friendly staff. The food is delicious and very well seasoned, both the meat-based dishes and the vegetables.

Food OK, service friendly, prices excessive. Considering the price of a bottle of wine, which retails for 5 euros and is offered in a restaurant for 35 euros, one gets the feeling that such a margin must be judged excessive given the simplicity of the restaurant.

We always enjoy going to the Blue Nile in Victory Street. The food is always extremely tasty and the atmosphere is simply wonderful - cozy and authentic. We always feel very comfortable there! However, a small suggestion for improvement would be that the service could sometimes be a little faster. Every now and then you have to wait a long time until one of the service ladies comes to the table. Otherwise there is nothing to complain about and the restaurant is highly recommended. We definitely continue to enjoy coming here!

Simply super delicious and super lovely team 🦋 I'm already looking forward to the next time!

Best dining experience in Munich! Super tasty and super nice. The furnishings are totally special and cozy. 10/10

Not bad, not spectacular either. And even less spectacular considering the price/quality ratio. The tender lamb advertised in the menu used to be tender some 10 years ago, when it was a lamb... And the waiter used to be polite in a previous life, maybe...

Was here for the first time and tried Ethiopian and it was so delicious! Great staff and the atmosphere is really cozy, you immediately feel at home🥰 It also smells incredibly good in the restaurant! Absolutely recommended

Very tasty food. Really something different if you don't know African food and well seasoned. The African soda varieties in different flavors are particularly recommended. Ambiance appropriately African furnished, unfortunately a bit cramped. Very expensive in price...

First time here and I have to say the food is extremely tasty. The staff is very friendly and the facility is excellent. You feel like you're at home.

Watch out. They'll serve you the wrong food and try to blame you for not noticing they got the order wrong. Also our food had mold on it.

Very nice and friendly service. And of course the food was also very good.

Top food, top service, we'll be back

Food as always very tasty Service very attentive and nice

Small restaurant, so we barely managed to get a table for two without a reservation on Saturday evening. Friendly service, good food and inexpensive :)

Tasty food, friendly services and good location! Worth to visit with friends at night. And the Honig Wein is impressive, must have a try!

Very tasty food! We'll be happy to come back, thank you 😊

Food was tasty, unfortunately we got intoxicated from it. We washed our hands carefully before, so that was not our issue or lack of hygiene, very bad.

Blue Nile has been delivering the perfect Ethiopian cuisine for decades. Unfortunately, the restaurant is difficult to find and has few seats. But the journey is always worth it. The food offers a great change from the rest of the food.

This was my first time having Ethiopian food and I give it a wholehearted 10/10! If you're in the same boat i'd recommend their plate for two (or more) people, it had a bit of everything and was so filling! If you're looking for good food, this is 100% the place to go!

It was our first time at the Ethiopian restaurant and we really enjoyed it. The service was very friendly.

It was our first time eating Ethiopian food and we loved it. Such warmth and friendliness, great. Everything was explained to us, both the dishes and how to eat (without cutlery). We will definitely come back on our next visit to Munich.

Food was good, although a bit more expensive. What was unpleasant was that incense was lit right at the table next to us as soon as we had sat down. When I wanted to pay, suddenly only cash payment was possible, even though all cards can be used for payment on the website. This was extremely unpleasant because I wanted to invite my daughter to her birthday dinner and a lovely day ended with discussions about payment. Not only did I end up in this unpleasant/embarrassing situation, but it seems to be common practice. If payment is only possible in cash, this should be pointed out on the website, then it won't be a problem. This situation was very uncomfortable and embarrassing for me.

Great atmosphere as well as super friendly service. The food is really good and the menu is well explained to you when you're there for the first time. Definitely worth a visit and I'll definitely be back 😄

Great food! Great atmosphere! 100% recommendation! I'd love to come back :)

I used to get good portions. Now felt like a blob. You wouldn't be full without the bread. The salad we ordered with it: just a few lettuce leaves, 2 pieces of tomato and 4 slices of cucumber. Too bad.

Great ambience and very good food, best service! We will definitely be back. A big thank you to Ati :-)

We had the menu for two people and it was really delicious. Loved the atmosphere in the restaurant! The staff was attentive gave us a lovely introduction to Ethiopian food.

Unbeatably good food. Simple and very tasty. Vegan options were very good as was the honey wine. Not exactly cheap, but you get very good, home-made food that you would otherwise never make yourself.

We had a great meal and we think that the food is of high quality. Very authentic!

Place was extremely cosy and food was delicious! While service could be better (it was hard to get the attention of staff and we just wanted to take away some food), I would definitely commend the female waitress who saw us waiting and offered us a glass of honey wine each. She was extremely kind!

Small nice restaurant with a great atmosphere. The owners and employees are super nice. We had a shared platter of Ethiopian dishes which was delicious. Afterwards there was a small coffee ceremony. Overall a great experience of Ethiopian food and culture.

Food is really perfectly seasoned and has a very intense taste. I also find it interesting to eat food with bread instead of cutlery. This gives you a completely different relationship to food

We felt very comfortable in the restaurant...great ambience, delicious food and a service that takes great pleasure in making the guest feel comfortable. The food is prepared with love and is explained in detail to anyone who has a question. You can find “eating with hands” on the internet...eating with hands and heart...that's how we felt. Many thanks to everyone who created this great atmosphere... and by that we also mean all the other guests who were there with us... everything was just perfect😊

Great food. Fresh. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. A must in Munich

I've been eating here regularly for several months. The warm welcome from the staff and the friendly service are amazing. Since the first visit I have been treated like a friend. The food is always fresh and very tasty. The vegan cuisine is also so varied that I'm already looking forward to my next visit. Martha

Very exotic and good ambience. The dishes have delicate seasoning and are in relatively big portion. They serve halal meat here and accept card payment.

Very tasty and absolutely warm service!

Great food, very hospitable and the honey wine is also really good. The price-performance ratio is right, you will definitely be full. My favorite restaurant in Munich so far.

Very tasty - fine dishes and very nice people!

It was an spice tour! Real food! Attentive personnel and pleasing ambient! I recommend it!

We were warmly welcomed, the food was very tasty and authentic. At the table we were presented with freshly roasted coffee beans, which we later drank. We can highly recommend the Blue Nile One and would be happy to come back.

Sehr geehrtesBlue Nile One -Team, gestern besuchte ich mit meiner Familie Ihr Restaurant Blue Nile 1 und wir bestellten folgende Gerichte: einmal Doro Alithcha, einmal Blue Nile Gebet, , eine Flasche Wasser, drei Mango-und zwei Apfelsäfte. Die Gesamtrechnung belief sich auf 129 Euro. Allerdings haben wir festgestellt, dass die Preise auf Ihrer Speisekarte bei Google Maps deutlich niedriger angegeben sind. Diese Diskrepanz hat uns sehr überrascht und enttäuscht, da uns im Restaurant gesagt wurde, dass die Online-Preise immer günstiger seien. Vor Ort waren die Preise jedoch höher als erwartet. Ich habe sowohl die Rechnung als auch Screenshots der Online-Speisekarte als Beweis gesichert. Es wäre wünschenswert, wenn die Preise sowohl online als auch vor Ort übereinstimmen würden, um solche Missverständnisse in Zukunft zu vermeiden.Das Merkwürdige daran ist, dass ich, als ich mit ihnen sprach und sagte, dass ihre Online-Preise günstiger seien, als wenn man in ihr Restaurant kommt, sie mir antworteten, dass sie sich nicht darum kümmern, was ich online gesehen habe. Vielen Dank für Ihr Verständnis. Mit freundlichen Grüßen, [abdi haji liban]

In any case, I don't recommend any, very bad restaurants in Munich Germany. Very expensive and the grains (injera) are fake...if you eat the food you will get a stomach ache or something...please be careful. I'm really ripped off.

Excellent food, well presented and attractively prepared. Wonderful, very friendly service (which is not a given in Munich!). Thank you for the lovely evening! We'd love to come back!

My wife and I discovered Blue Nile One about a year ago and were immediately very excited. The food is excellent and they have very tasty Ethiopian and African drinks. The service is also competent and very friendly. Now we always go there when we have time.

It was very good 30 years ago when we ate there as students: today it was just as delicious: we are thrilled! the service and the ambience are wonderful! We recommend !

Very, very lovely staff!!! Super friendly and responsive to requests (such as gluten-free). Food was super tasty :)

The Ethiopian restaurant is very nice in every way the reception the food content and the flavors are very nice to sit down and eat.

The food was pretty good, but the service was lacking. We ended up being there twice as long as planned because everything took so long. In the two hours there we even didn't get any change to order a second round of drinks. The servers seemed to struggle with simple drink orders. They said that they were understaffed in the kitchen, which I can understand happens, but most of the food there is some type of stew which can be prepared beforehand and heated up in bulk, and it also doesn´t explain how it took nearly half an hour after we asked to pay before we could finally pay and leave. The decor is nice, but the room gets too loud when it's full.

Was completely happy. Very tasty food, loving service, great atmosphere

After we had already dined at the big sister “Blue Nile” on Belgradstrasse last year with extremely positive reviews, this time we decided on “One”. Reservation at 7 p.m., food served at 8:35 p.m. - excessive waiting time.. The main course consisting of beef strips, a tomato wedge and the traditional “bread” for 23.00 euros was more than overpriced, especially since there were no side dishes and the quantity left a lot to be desired. Tastes good, but not a highlight. Card payment not possible because the card system didn't work - you read this review here often, which makes you wonder whether there is a card system at all. Service was tried, but understaffed with one waitress for a full restaurant. All in all 2 out of 5 stars and unfortunately not another visit in the future. (Picture shows four (!!!) main courses)

Delicious food and authenticity that I really missed! Since I've discovered the local food in Ethiopia, I've been searching for Ethiopian restaurants in Europe - and this place have the great things Ethiopian kitchen has to offer: •Injera (flat bread) is made from teff flour (by authentic recipe, unlike the cheap wheat replacement I've seen in Budapest...) and have the great taste and pleasant texture; •all the toppings/stews are blended with authentic Ethiopian spices, delicious and well prepared; •mead (honey wine) is really delicious and was served in authentic glassware; •delicius Ethiopian beer and pink guava juice was really good. Maybe the spicy red paste topping (forgot the name) would be a good addition to the already amazing plate, but the combo plate is already great. Portion size did not leave us hungry. 5/5. Would highly recommend this place!

Very tasty, traditional food and a super nice waitress. And we were very full afterwards :) It was really a great experience. I can only recommend it if you are interested in other food cultures.

Very expensive food for the experience. It is a must for 2 people to eat from the same plate, even if you order 2 seaparte dishes. This is the experience. They have amazing beer and drink option. Must try - mango beer. The spice level is good, and the fermented bread tastes delicious. The service is really slow, so expect to wait a lot. We paid 32 euros/person for one dish and a drink, excluding tip.

Execent food, great service. Familyfriendly. We felt very comfortable!

I can really recommend the Blue Nile One! Both for those who want to eat meat and for the vegetarians among us. The mixed platter is simply delicious and the portion is more than enough. We all had the starter and dessert option and the selection was excellent. We - I'm sure I speak for my friends too - would love to come back! Thank you for the lovely evening with you!

It was our first time eating Ethiopian food. It was an experience. The waiter brought our food to the table, which was arranged on a large plate and kept warm by a traditional straw cover. Cutlery is provided upon request if you don't want to eat with your hands. The taste was very good and the aroma of the African spices lingered for a long time. I can only recommend this little restaurant.

Netter Abend in Schwabing, mit sehr gutem äthiopischen Essen. Ruhigen Ambiente. Etwas lange Wartezeit, aber es lohnt sich.

I reserved a table for four in advance. The fact that we got there 30 minutes early wasn't a problem at all. We received a very warm welcome. We had vegan and vegetarian starters and then the vegan mixed platter for 4 people. The various dishes were all to die for. Each one was seasoned in its own way and tasted very good. We were full and unfortunately didn't manage to do everything. After we were served freshly roasted coffee, we couldn't resist here either. After paying by card, we got limoncello and a non-alcoholic alternative on the house. The friendly manner made us feel very welcome and at home. When I'm back in Munich, I'll come back here!

The Blue Nile One is a highly recommended restaurant. Be it the service or the food, it leaves nothing to be desired. There is plenty of choice and is ideal for a sociable get-together. There is only one star deducted for the ambience, as it is unfortunately very loud when it is relatively full.

I want to start with the positive: the food itself is nice and on the spicy side. We ordered the mixed platter for two, which I highly recommend. Note: they don't provide cutlery by default, but you can ask for it. However, the service was just horrible. First, one waitress had no idea about our reservation through TheFork app, leading to a huge mix-up with the bill. Second, the waiter told us "we have to order drinks," which we assumed was part of the "combo," but they were charged separately. When we asked him for drink recommendations, he simply said, "I don't know," which is not the answer you'd expect in a restaurant with niche cuisine. At least suggest an Ethiopian drink! We eventually ordered the honey wine drink, which I personally do not recommend. The decoration and atmosphere are pretty nice. I would have given the place 4 stars if the service was better.

Everything great! Super tasty and the portions are large. We will be back definitely :)

Very pleasant atmosphere, delicious food, very nice waitresses

I'm a fan, it's very cozy and everyone is very friendly, the food is great, lots of vegetarian and vegan dishes, thank you! 👌

Nothing special, but guys… make sure you have a German Credit Card other wise tou will not be able to pay!!!!!!

Delicious! The Blue Nile menu offers an extensive range of different dishes (starters, various meat dishes and a dessert variation). The whole thing is rounded off with a soothing honey wine and a hot drink. Our service was very friendly and the authentic ambience made us feel very comfortable here.

Terrible experience, I am from Ethiopia. I would like to first address the issue in Amharic. Please scroll down for English version. The house does not suit the level of its location. He announces that the floor has not been cleaned for a long time. The chair and the table were not cleaned. The decorative pillows are old and tattered. The toilet had no soft and no soap. The pepper from Madbet will be steamed. The food is substandard and covered in a greasy substance like grasso. But the bread alone was good. Hospitality. The boy who brought the food was very nice. But the main host (apparently the owner) opened us up. From taking orders to accounting and answering, it's very frustrating. The most frustrating thing is that when we paid the bill and waited for an answer, it seemed like he was very confused. He gave us no less than throwing away our answer. Impatient for us to leave, he was rushing to seat another waiter where we were seated. I don't think this kind of person deserves to be called a white-faced or bloody king. ------------------------------------------- The floor was dirty, tables not wiped, 'decorative' pillows looked old and worn. The washroom was not hygienic, especially if you consider that it is a place where you are expected to eat by hand. There was some emission from the kitchen that was kind of suffocating especially if you are sitting close to the counter. The food was greasy. I have to admit that the Injera was good. Hospitality: The waiter that brought the food and drink was good. However, the head waiter (probably an owner or something like that) did not behave like someone who should be at service. He seemed upset by our presence there. From the moment we walked in until we left, it seemed like he was trying to be as impolite as possible. I have to mention one specific incidence: He expected tip and delayed to give us back the changes. And when he knew that was not the case, he gave us the change in the most impolite way possible (we didn't tip him of course). Moreover, we overheard some unpleasant comments from him and we are happy that we left. PS: I read that some customers were subjected to remarks that they felt they were targeted at their ethnicities. I am sorry that they had to experience this and assure them that this does not represent even the standards of Ethiopian hospitality. I wish that I could offer them the experience with my improvised Ethiopian dishes at home (the offer is open if they get to contact me). Did I mention that we went there to celebrate my wife's birthday by having some homely vibe? Yeah well, it was the most memorable birthday dinner we've had.

Nice little restaurant with delicious and authentic Ethiopian cuisine. We had a wonderful evening and would love to come back.

Delicious food, hospitable service - what more can you ask for? Would definitely recommend this place if you're hunting for spice and flavour in Munich.

Friendly service, good food 👌👌👌

Delicious food, good prices and very friendly staff. We'd love to come back

A very cozy atmosphere and super delicious food. We recommend! We were even given some of the salad dressing because we thought it was so delicious.

Delicious. Great injeras, delicious salad + dressing. All in all super happy. Nice little shop, nice service.

Absolutely excellent, the portions are a bit small for the price but the generous bread will still fill you up. Nice ambience and nice service.

The food was really excellent, we will definitely come back.

Wir waren heute zu dritt im Blue Nil One und wieder vom leckeren Essen und freundlichen Service begeistert. Zum Schluss gab es auch noch einen Limoncello aufs Haus. Trotzdem muss ich ein paar Schönheitsfehler anmerken: Vor allem wurde bei der Online Reservierung über die Homepage nicht bestätigt, so wie es üblich ist bei Restaurants mit Zeitfenster, dass der Tisch nur für 1,5 Stunden reserviert ist. Dies wurde mir erst vor Ort mitgeteilt und dann auf meine Reklamation auf 2 Stunden verlängert. Desweiteren sind die auf der Homepage angegebenen Preise schon längere Zeit nicht mehr aktuell Auch konnte man nur bar bezahlen, obwohl lt. Homepage auch Kartenzahlung möglich ist. Für mich ist das Restaurant trotzdem eine klare Empfehlung

It is always lovely to visit this restaurant. I have been eating here for 4 years, and it never disappoints. Honestly, there is nothing I can recommend. Just eat what you are in the mood for. ^^, it will surely be delicious

Great food, great service, great ambience, great wine, gladly again!

Very tasty food, very friendly and courteous staff
