Safari

First time trying Somali food and we’ll definitely be back (came for breakfast but want to try the larger main courses for dinner next time). The sambosas and spiced tea with goat milk were highlights. Everything was so fresh, flavorful, and well spiced!

First time trying Somalian food. Mango curry veggie was delicious and so was the hibiscus juice drink. There was one gentleman taking orders, waiting on tables, and preparing food but he was very nice, quick, and efficient. Would recommend if you’ve never had Somalian food and would like an introduction to it!

Really outstanding vegetarian food. We had the vegetarian sambusas and sabaayad and even my husband, a total carnivore, fell in love. The mango curry chicken was also good. The grapefruit juice was delicious. Sorry I forgot to take the picture until after we dove in!

Another participating restaurants for the current restaurant week event. I went on a Saturday and they don't do restaurant week menu on Saturday, but the normal menu price is pretty similar. They serve really good Somali/East African food; definitely check out this place! I really like the goat in Hilib Ari dish - a little too salty if you eat it by itself but the taste balances out when you eat with rice or the sabaayed (chappati flat bread). The beef imo is kinda similar to normal beef stew. The sambusa is pretty good. Their juice is delicious as well.

What? We were the only table when we got there at 6:30 on a Saturday. Feeling a little discouraged but decided to stick around (turned out many people ordered takeout).
However, the food didn’t disappoint. I ordered hilib ari, the signature goat curry. Fresh off the bone, the meat was flavorful and tender. I enjoyed every bite of it.
