★★★★★ 5.0 christine bourgeois · Feb 2026

I went to there after meeting their wonderful people at the Pretti memorial site. They refused donations for giving out tea and sombusas to all attending. They had been there for a week. Our beautiful Somali neighbors need our support.

★★★★★ 5.0 Nima Il · Dec 2025

I had an exceptional experience with Cairo Grill in Minneapolis! I called them at 7 AM to place a large order for the first time, and they were incredibly respectful and accommodating right from the start. Despite the size of my order, they had everything ready in just 5 minutes! The food was fresh and the price was great, making the whole experience even more satisfying. The staff are not only efficient but also very polite and hardworking. I wish I could give them 1000 stars for their fantastic service. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious, reasonably priced food and excellent customer service. Keep up the amazing work!

★★★★★ 5.0 Shugri Farah · Nov 2025

The best sambusa in the Twin Cities by far. I absolutely love their Somali shaah (tea) too. I always order catering for our events, and it is always amazing with crispy, flavorful, and freshly made sambusas every time. The customer service is excellent as well, friendly, efficient, and attentive. Highly recommend.

Like most Somali restaurants, this place is not clean(so if you have been to other Somali restaurants you won’t be surprised about the cleanliness of the place)! Their Sambosas are the best in town and the two stars are for them but other foods on their menu are really horrible; and I would give service 0 if I had the ability!! Make sure you check your receipt to make sure you weren’t over charged!!
