Delicious food! I'm gonna be thinking of the pastries for days. I got the beef and goat plate. The goat was falling off the bone and went super well with the rice!

Randomly found this restaurant when having some beer at the tap room next door, and got some food to take home.The chicken stew and spinach bowl were both excellent, very good flavor and large portions. The veggie samosas were also fantastic, and we really enjoyed them with the house hot sauce. Everything was flavorful and well balanced, but I guess some might find the flavor too strong... We loved it!Our meal was reasonably priced and the staff was helpful. Hope to visit again soon!

The food itself is good, but almost every time I order from here they get my order wrong--they don't include the salad/chapati that the listing said it comes with, or they put rice instead of spaghetti that I requested. I'm just done ordering from this place even if the food is good.

Goat, get the goat (or lamb). The price is a lil high but worth the meal.

Avoid very unprofessional and food was completely disappointing even after I saw I gave it a try and bit into it but it was awful. I feel bad for the guy working who was new seems like they made him work with out proper training I had to help him with the pos system. He wasn't even the unprofessional part. I called before coming and made an order when I got there he said the guy from last shift didn't mention a order made. He had no change and So I was forced to pay card after I had already paid cash originally. And he was out of everything apparently worse food experience I've ever had! Paid 25 for 2 gyro I would have been better off eating fast food tbh

Food ok. Service and ambiance lacking. Probably best to order takeout. Preparation takes a long time.

Please be cautious while ordering from this place. Although I don't usually leave reviews, I feel compelled to share my experience. They have repeatedly delivered the wrong order and on one occasion, I received a microwaved spaghetti that had a terrible smell. Be aware of these issues before placing your order. Also, the person who calls is disrespectful!

Not sure what else to put - I got a moderate case of food poisoning after eating the lamb gyro here, and my girlfriend got some acid reflux from her chicken (which she rarely gets from anywhere). The food actually tasted good, but unfortunately I will not be coming back here after this food poisoning experience.

By far one of by favorite local food stops. The lamb was fall of the bone delicious and the rice was made to perfection. Can’t recommend them enough. It is a small spot, but with BIG heart and amazing food!PS. I would have taken a photo, but I ate it too fast ?

This was a lucky find when I was looking for a Mediterranean/ African cuisine for a themed party. I called in my order and was met by a friendly gentleman on the phone who walked me through their menu and specials. I drove to pick up my food. Parking was tight, but if you are lucky, you should find a parking space if the other businesses are not busy. Was met by Friendly staff. Ordered 3 Somali stuffed pastries ( samosas for carry out ). There were a lot of food items for offer and extra specials that were not mentioned online. I'd suggest you go in and sit to enjoy the variety of food, teas, etc however, the dining area is a little cramped. They do have sitting areas outside. The samosas were delicious and I'd without doubt get some more along other exotic menu items I saw.

The food was incredible! I had the Lamb shank and my husband had the Goat stew. Both meats were like butter and fell off the bone. Even the veggies tasted amazing. I highly recommend this place! We will definitely be coming back.

There are so few places open to get late night food in the area. After reading the reviews it became a must try. To you I say YOU MUST TRY!We order the Lamb Shank, Lamb Stew, Somali Pastry, and the Beef Kofta. Everything was incredible. The flavors were amazing from aroma to first bite, chewing and the swallow. I have never looked more forward to leftovers in my life. They will be seeing us many more times as long as we live in the area.
