Delicious food. Reasonable prices.
The goat biryani was delectable, and had generous quantity of meat, a must try

This is such a wonderful restaurant. The good and service is phenomenal. I got juice, soup, a large entree with meat, and a banana for less than $20! I couldn’t believe it. Highly recommend - just watch out, some of the sauces are very spicy!

Have been here twice, delicious food every time. I’ve never gotten take-out so I can’t speak to that experience but I enjoyed dine-in. Owner is very nice. Small menu but great options. I recommend the chicken steak or goat which was mostly tender (aside from a couple pieces not on the bone) which was a good surprise (it’s hard to find places that cook goat well).Highly recommend!

The staff and other customers are super friendly and this place is definitely authentic. I got take out. It was my first time trying Somali food, I got the chicken and goat dishes. Both were delicious but I have to say, the chicken was so flavorful and was my favorite.

I had the goat meat dish with chilie sause and it was truely most delishious meal I have eaten in a long time. The meat fell of the bone with a juicy tenderness almost like pulled pork. The food was hot and ready to eat. I highly recommend this place.

Food was very good!! Service from restaurant staff was awesome. I highly recommend this restaurant. They are also halal restaurant if you are looking for halal food. They also have free Somali tea. Loved that tea!! Please try some of their tea. We had fried chicken and goat meat. I loved both of the platters. Highly recommend!!

Seriously, the Salmon Dish might be the best preparation of salmon I've ever had. Spicy and so delicious! I'll be back for sure!
