First time visiting this place. The food was pretty incredible. My food was done in about fifteen minutes. Mango juice was good as well. I'll probably be back some time. There was enough food to split the chicken suuqar plate with two people (very generous portions of spaghetti and rice!), came with a side of curried veggies and a side salad as well. Salad dressing and green sauce were delicious. Highly recommend this spot.

First time at the restaurant and First time eating Somalia food. It was very good. It's a small restaurant. We didn't know what to order. Some customers helped us to order, traditional food. They served us all the food in a big tray. It smell real good and good tast.

Small restaurant serving delicious home cooked Somali cuisine for 16 years. It is located in a strip mall that’s not fully occupied. Its menu is limited and occasionally they might not have some of the dishes. However, once you take a bite of the food, you will forget about all of that, as all things are cooked just right, with good flavors that are not overpowering, and in good portions. The goat plate is very tender and the fish in both fish wrap and fish salad is moist and savory. Service is polite and courteous. There’s a discount for cash payments, too.

During our recent visit, it was impossible not to notice that nearly every table had ordered the "2 Person or More Sports Plate." At just $35, this platter is an absolute steal, especially given the generous portions. The chicken and beef were seasoned to perfection, delivering a depth of flavor that truly impressed. The pasta, served with a marinara sauce — my toddler’s favorite. The platter also came with a fresh, crisp salad and refreshing mixed drinks, making it a well-rounded meal. You can feel the warmth and love in hearty Somalian food. We opted for the watermelon and mango drinks, which were delightfully sweet and refreshing — just what we needed on a sweltering summer day. The service was exceptional; the staff was not only attentive but genuinely warm and welcoming. To top it a
