Bole Ethiopian Cuisine

This is based on the express location. The menu here is limited due to it being a quick service location. Service was fine. I had the chicken tibs with tiqel gomen and veggie sambusas to start. The food came out pretty quickly and everything was hot. The sambusas were wonderful! The chicken tibs were lacking flavor and spice. The chicken to pepper/onion ratio was uneven. There was very little chicken. It was served with 3 half pieces of injera. All in all it was okay, not sure I'd come back to this location.

Nestled in a warm, bustling atmosphere, Bolé is a culinary gem.We started with the Veggie Sambusas, which were deliciously flavorful.The Half Meat & Half Veggie combination was a highlight. Offering a perfect balance between meaty and vegan options, every bite was a delight.The flavors were bold and satisfying, leaving us eager for a return visit!!!!!

We absolutely love this place. The food is delicious, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is very inviting. If you like Ethiopian food, you will love this place.

Nice, friendly atmosphere with a decent amount of seating inside and a huge patio. Street parking only so I imagine it gets hard to come by on busier days. Speaking of, you should probably make reservations for popular times since they've gotten a lot of attention being on the MSP Mag "50 best" list.I got the small veggie sampler with:- miser: red lentils and berbère- fasolia: green beans, tomatoes, and spices- tiqel gomen: cabbage, potatoes, carrots in a light curryEverything was excellent with lots of flavor. At 4oz of each the small sampler is definitely enough food for one person. The miser has a very small hit of spice from the berbère but not spicy at all. The gomen is very mild and is almost a palette cleanser. The injera is also fantastic. Very soft and just tangy enough without being overwhelming.The salad it comes with is very good as well. Nice from shallots balanced by an herbed vinaigrette.I'll definitely be back to try the other veggie dishes and desserts.

Pretty delicious Ethiopian food. The restaurant is designed where you order at the counter can choose to eat there or to go. They have a variety of different classic Ethiopian dishes from Tibs, Doro Wat, and several different Vegetarian. I went with the Doro Wat (an Ethiopian Chicken spiced curry) that came with a Salad and Injera bread and it was delicious. There's also an Ethiopian grocery store right next door as well.

Came in town for a few days. Best meal I had here by far. Didn't know a thing about Ethiopian food, but left with a full belly and newfound appreciation. Portions are great. My wife and I split a three meat plate and had plenty to spare. So sad I couldn't take home leftovers. Great pricing too!

Omg their food is so good. The meat is so tender and I love the scent of the incense they use from time to time. I also appreciate the traditional coffee they serve.

First time at this location, we normally go to the St. Paul location but, due to the State Fair, they are closed.

Delicious! And thank goodness, because Seward is becoming a bit of a food desert. But this is a seriously great addition to the neighborhood.I came here tonight with friends and we ordered a lot: a beef, a chicken, and a lamb dish; a lentil, a split pea, a beet, a cabbage, and a mustard greens dish. We loved all of them. Flavorful and fresh, and not oily. The non-meat options are all vegan.We had two babies in our party, and it was a nice, chill environment for them. (They mostly loved the food like the adults did, although one found the red lentils too spicy.)We will definitely be back!

We've been to the St.Paul location but had a craving for Ethiopian on a Monday night and they're closed. Bole Express IS open Monday (yelp shows it as closed). Had the crispy kitfo roll lightly cooked for an appetizer, amazing. Had awaze tibs, atil kik, and misser combo for main course. Perfectly seasoned and spiced. Prompt service, perfect portions, reasonably priced.
