We ordered Beef with Rice and Chicken with Rice. We were immediately served with sweet tea and it hit the spot! It was served with beef soup on the side. The food is flavorful and tasty!! I highly recommend that you try this place and support local – it is a taste of Arabic-Afghani-Afrikan food! Don’t let the look of the place deceive you Support Local food places like this

Guys, what is this? Ramadan month!!! How was it possible? The meat is not fresh at all! I told myself on the road to Chicago, what is this from the garbage heap?

You have to try this place! If you are looking for an exciting new local place to try, this is it. For your first of many visits, drive in on the east side which wraps around and park on the west. When you get in, find a spot and they’ll come take your order. Ask what they have! It’s all amazing, a blend of many food styles. Chicken and rice are incredible. If you are with several people ask for the big plate!

The lamb dish that I ordered was tasty and the portion was very generous. It comes with a banana and a drink. The price is affordable and the treatment we got was very warm and friendly. Would definitely comes again if we had the chance in the future.

I went here with my family members and it was lunch time. Although they don’t have any board outside the restaurant but thanks to Google Maps it took me to the exact location, and I hope they will have it in future. The price/quality for the food was amazing and feels like a homie cooked food. They were very welcoming towards the customers. Although I didn’t find anything sort of Menu with them. Maybe they will it in the future that too. But what I ate it was very tasty (Rice-chicken-lamb) and freshly cut salad.

The lamb (Hilib Ari) was very flavorful and the texture was great, which matched wonderfully with the aromatic rice (not your typical dry fare).

Amazing!! Visiting from Salt Lake City on a business trip. We wanted something unique and of the beaten path. I can tell you that this is way off the path, this is hole in the wall traditional fare! I was floored at how delicious the food was. This will most definitely be our go to location when in town! Very well done, best restaurant in town!

Love the food. Their rice with chicken or goat meat is a must. We drive 40 minutes to visit them once every week. Now under new owners but still the same great taste. Highly recommend.

Zero frills place that doesn’t have a sign out front and one menu on the wall with only 4 items available. The son took our order on a napkin! His momma made the food and he delivered it. All that to say HOLY COW THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS! Both son and mom are super sweet and a joy to talk to. Mom has been cooking for over 40 years! If you want authentic Somalian food with huge portions for a very inexpensive price, this is the place. I will be going back for their food again. Don’t let the no-frill atmosphere keep you away.
