The best Somalian food I have ever tasted, me and my partner drove 2 and half hours to eat the lamb and rice on Saturday evening. Perfectly cooked lamb and rice with amazing sauces. We even both ate for $20. If we lived closer I would eat here every day. The nicest and what looked to be owner welcoming us, felt like a nice wholesome family environment. Food came with little to no wait either. 100/10!

I 3 placed orders through Doordarsh and every time the food arrived at least 15 minutes later than expected, whenever I ask the deriver they will say that the food wasn't ready at the time they arrived and they had to wait till the chef prepared it!!

Rice and lamb were tasty. But too much flavour in rice. Service was fast. The place was nice and cozy.

This place is delicious. Kind staff, generous portions. We've already gone back a few times since first trying it a few months ago. I love the mixed chapati wrap, but the server recommended trying their pasta so that'll be next!
My boyfriend and I both have food poisoning after eating the chicken and rice dish from this place. We have been violently throwing up for 2 days. Won't recommend or be ordering from this place ever again. It's not worth it!

We just moved into the area and were so excited to try this restaurant. They did not disappoint! The gentleman serving us was very nice and the prices are very reasonable for how much they give you. The lamb is amazing and I could eat their rice everyday it's so good. There's a good range of spice levels too and nothing was so hot that you couldn't taste the flavours. Definitely give this place a try (or many) if you have the chance. We will definitely be going back!

Family just moved into the neighbourhood and since we had never had Somali food, decided to give it a try. The person at the counter recommended two dinners for three to serve 5 people, while getting a good sample of dishes. The spicy chicken was spicy but no so much you couldn't taste the food. The regular chicken was very flavourful - a bit like tandoori chicken.The Beef Suqar (I think) was excellent and the rice was both copious and and flavourful. The lamb shanks though... we're all big fans of lamb and they were just superb! A definite must order in the future. Over all there was more than enough food for us all with plenty for left overs.Highly recommended!
