The food was flavorful. I ordered 4 different dishes and found that they were variations of one another. The wrap vs. the quesadilla. Both were made with Naan. One is wrapped, and the other is folded. The “KK” was more of the same chicken mixed with Naan dumplings. The seasoning of the rice was awesome (beef/rice dish). 2 up for the rice and wrap.

This was my first time trying Somali food so I didn’t know what to expect. I ordered the goat because why not order the goat. I had never had that before either. The guy behind the counter was very nice and helpful. He suggested it and I went with it. I received a mammoth plate of food for my $12. You cannot argue with the portion size here. The rice was the best thing on the plate. It was outstanding in both flavor and texture. I would go back just for the rice. The goat had great flavor, but it was a tad stringy and full of connective tissue. Maybe that is the way goat always is or maybe it just needed to cook longer. As I said, I don’t know goat. It did taste good though. I was less impressed with the other two offerings on the plate. The salad was simply dry lettuce with some green peppers and onion on it. No dressing. I probably could have asked for dressing, but I filled up on rice and didn’t care enough to do so. The last item on the plate was a mixed veggie dish that I just didn’t get. The bulk of the dish was made up of potatoes that reminded me of store bought french fries that are warmed up, but not crispy. It was obviously colored by something red, but there was no special flavoring to go along with the coloring. The sauces that came with the meal were great. The super hot green one especially. I would try this place again, but would definitely pass on the vegetable dish.

Great food! Great prices. They are very friendly. Can call and order for pick up. Even the most expensive thing on menu which I ordered is enough for a family of 6 and was only $25 and it came with lime, 2 sauces, 2 bananas, and 2 sodas.

Amazing lunch today. First time having Somalian food but won’t be my last. Friendly staff too! Really recommend highly. Rice is out of this world and so are quesadillas.

Ordered rice and pasta dishes with fish and beef Philly steak. Food tasted old and basically tasteless. Toilet did not have toilet paper. I asked the guys at the counter to put toilet paper in the toilet. He laughed and said we use water. The restaurant is spacious and has a great relaxed environment. Good place to have a cup of tea and talk with friends.
