I wanted to wait to come here with my friends but I couldn’t resist so I had to buy myself takeout for lunch. Fortunately I will be coming back with my friends soon. I can’t wait to try everything on the menu!

Amazing food and courteous staff. This is my 2nd time going to this restaurant. And food is delicious as expected, I was in Burlington, I believe in 2021 and met the owner Umar, such a gem of a gentleman. I found out on this trip that he passed away. Beautiful soul and great chef. I had samosa and Philly cheese steak sandwich. Wife had coconut chicken stew with rice, all items are just spot on and delicious. Make sure to try their tea as well. Staff is very helpful in explaining dishes and go out of their way to make you comfortable.

★★★★★ 5.0 Mike Bergin · Nov 2024

Don’t judge this restaurant by its looks, food is very good. The vegetable Samosas were excellent, worth trying as a starter. We had the chicken coconut stew, chicken with rice and chicken gyro. Everything tasted good, first time having Somali food and will be back again! Flavorful but not overly spicy.
