Amina's African Sambusas

Amazing food. Amazing service. Had never experienced African food for and it was certainly a unique blend of flavor and spices that ive never tried before. Guy at the counter was so nice and excited to share his culture with us. Didn't get pictures of the food (it was in my belly too quick).

My partner and I were passing through Boise on a road trip and only had time to stop for dinner. We like to try new things so we selected this place since we hadn't had Kenyan food before. It exceeded our expectations with delicious food and also super friendly servers who taught us how to eat fufu properly and made us feel very welcome, even taking some time to swap travel stories. It was clearly a place with a regular community of visitors but was also welcoming to newcomers. Definitely recommend!

Delicious and flavorful! Tried the vegan sambusa and agree with the other review that said it's life changing. Tasty sauce on the side too. Service was super great as well, very friendly guy with great vibes. Hoping to come back soon!

This is superb authentic African food in an atmosphere that made us feel like we were in Africa. Abdi added a pleasant flare that will assure us to visit again. He was so fun and so welcoming and so patient explaining the menu. The food was perfectly prepared. We found Amina's at a street fair in Boise and are so glad we looked them up. We will be back soon! Accessibility note: there is ADA parking but it is a bit far from the door if you struggle with walking. There is parking directly in front of the restaurant but the curbs are extremely high. Typical curbing in the valley. Inside was easy to navigate with a mobility walker and the bathroom was clean and accessible as well. 12-29-25 Update: Our last three attempts to go here resulted in it being closed although the hours on the do

My wife and I were attending a convention of Jehovah’s Witnesses Saturday Aug 30, we had brought our lunches. We stepped outside to eat our lunch on the plaza and then we past their stand. I had never tried African food from Kenya, it smelled so good we decided to bail on our lunches and get some sambusas. We shared one of each flavor. They were each delicious. The staff was very warm and friendly. I had to go back and tell them how much we enjoyed them. We’re looking forward to visiting their restaurant soon! We wish you the best success 😃👏🏻
