Just ok. The vegetarian sampler was a bit disappointing - most of the dishes were rather bland, and there were items that we weren’t expecting (something made with beets?). My friend ordered the Key Wot, which was nice and spicy, which made the veggies all the more bland. Also, if you order a single main item instead of the platter, you only get that dish (no additional side options). On the plus side, they do provide plenty of extra injera. But I’ll be investigating one of the other Ethiopian restaurants in town next time.
Not my favorite. My experience didn't look like all these other photos. Maybe I caught a bad night. Food was alright, not the worst, not the best. Staff didn't seem to excited to be there. I'll give it another shot though!
Amazing, authentic food. We ordered the vegetarian sample plate with a meat combo. As a party of two, it was the perfect amount of food. For two dishes, it was about $30.
I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a new experience or just some good, wholesome food.
Bole Ethiopian may be a small venue but where they lack in accommodations they make up in the food. The servings are large and very flavorful. They have a limited bar selection but enough options that can satisfy most palates. Then, of course, you get to eat with your hands!
The service is good and they allowed us to book a reservation in advance for our group of 9. With that said, our group took up a good portion of the restaurant.
If you are looking to try or get your Ethiopian food fix, I would definitely recommend putting Bole on your list!
