I’ve eaten here three times. Note that they have just changed their name to Mogadishu. The quality of the food appears to be lower than at other Somalian places in the area. It’s just not as tasty. And like pretty much all these places, they don’t have everything advertised on the menu. When you dine in, they tend to give you free goat soup, which is nice.

Food is tasty. It was not noisy when we were there. All meals come with complementary banana, soup, tea and pineapple juice. It is clean. Tea and soup are self service. They do take-aways too and price is reasonable. On weekends the tea and soup finish by 4pm. So get there earlier if you want tea and soup. They do close at 9pm but on weekends do get there by 7pm because they may run out of food, which can only mean they have good food. But they do try to accommodate which is very nice.

I grew up partially in East Africa and love good East African food. This is not that. It was possibly the worst food I’ve ever had at a restaurant. The goat was utterly tasteless, no spices or flavor of ANY kind. Full of fat, still on the vertebrae bones.
They even botched chicken curry and chapatis. The curry had more cumin than you can possibly imagine. I mean imagine you take a full cup of cumin, add half a cup of water, and call that sauce. The chapatis were by far the worst I’ve ever had. Old, cold, doughy, and with little or no oil. It tasted like eating damp, congealed wet dough. Also water isn’t free, no AC and boiling hot inside, flies everywhere, including on the food. Actual African restaurants are tastier, cheaper, cleaner, and more comfortable. It was a struggle to even leave a tip.

I adore this place. The staff is always welcoming and the food is AMAZING. The chicken kalankal, the chapati, the soup (OMG) and tea when you are dining in-house are free and the BEST ever. The salmon is an amazing proportions and so tender. Plus they serve the most amazing pineapple juice and bananas with your meal for free as well. The green sauce….so fresh and deliciously spicy. Such good people to dine with! Thank you Leban!!!

This place was amazing!! My first time and it wasn’t so bad. This is traditional Somali food so be prepared for people to eat with their hands!! It’s not strange it’s their culture and the people are nice and polite! They came to out table a few times and ask about the food. If your going into a place like this have a open mind. This place isn’t American and that fine it’s nice to try out cultures food!!

Loved the ambiance and food. Wasn’t an issue for me, but there’s no AC (at least when I was there) so keep in mind what you wear
