This was an amazing experience. I had never had Somali food and wanted to try it while in the Twin Cities. We definitely chose the right spot for the first experience!!! The lamb was literally falling off the bone and seasoned perfectly. The rice was sooo good, and we were even given a banana to try with it (a must!). The chai was spicy and warm and delicious. Aisha helped us choose our dishes and was an extremely accommodating host. 10/10 recommend and if ever back in the Twin Cities, this might just be my first stop!

Went here for the first time today and ordered Chicken Suqaar- absolutely DELICIOUS. The rice was so flavorful, the chicken cooked perfectly, and a nice fresh side salad. Will definitely be back.

This place was AMAZING. I don’t eat Somali food often so the worker gave some suggestions and it was all GREAT . First time eating rice with a banana, so I wasn’t sure how to eat it, when I asked a worker she smiled and said do whatever you want. Every worker was so caring and giving 110%. I’m excited to go again

Great food. Fun staff.
The customers helped fill in my gaps on knowledge or understanding. Even offered to grab my meal, but I had already paid.
So it says a lot about the atmosphere and the service they provide.
Im gonna make this routine for sure.

I eat here every week, and am always excited to walk in the door. The food is delicious. We order pasta and chicken most often, big portions. Family run with incredible service. Have also loved the lamb + rice!

The atmosphere was welcoming, clean, and full of warmth — the kind of place where culture and comfort meet.
The food was incredible. From the first bite, you can tell everything is made with care, tradition, and love. The flavors were rich, perfectly seasoned, and reminded me of home-cooked meals passed down through generations. The portions were generous and the presentation was beautiful.

Amazing food! I’ve had a lot of falafel, but their falafel wrap was hands down the best. We also tried the goat and rice and a sambusa – both were incredibly tasty. The restaurant is very clean and spacious, and the woman who took our order/served us was friendly and welcoming.
Great for lunch, I highly recommend it!

We have been here several times and have always been impressed with the quality of the food and service. We have always been warmly welcomed and we know they appreciate their customers. It’s fun to see the original African artwork on the walls, really adds to the atmosphere of the place. Highly recommend!

This place got incredible food (lamb and rice were delicious!), I would recommend going here if you crave something home-made but with MENA flavors. The service was very warm and hospitable, appreciated it a lot

Really good food at this family restaurant. Beats the Somali food I’ve had in DC and TX. The goat was tender and fell off the bone. Very generous portions—$20 total for 2.
