Blue Nile Café

The oldest restaurant of its kind in the city, Blue Nile Café has served traditional Ethiopian eats since 1995. The current location is in the historic City Market. Reserve a table online before you go or place a pick-up or delivery order.

 

Banksia

Find Australian baked goods at this bakehouse and café founded by Sydney transplants. Authentic dishes abound and you’ll enjoy difficult-to-find-elsewhere specialties like meat pies and almond frangipane croissants. Breakfast is served all day and lunch options include salads and soups.

Grünauer

For Austrian eats, try Grünauer, situated in the city’s historic Freight House and offering traditional European flavors. The owner grew up in the restaurant biz, his parents operating a traditional Viennese restaurant in Vienna for decades, as well as Austrian restaurants in New York City. Be sure to check out the nightly dinner specials, like kalbsbraten on Wednesday or sauerbraten on Saturday, as well as the wine and dessert lists.
