I got the Kati Kati, which is chicken and vegetables served on slices of unleavened bread cooked in a flavorful soup. It was nothing short of incredible!Most dishes here are just short of $20, but what I got was a MASSIVE portion that I could not finish! Honestly, one dish is good for two servings!I highly recommend Horn of Africa if you happen to stumble upon this review.

Delicious food at a reasonable price! Note: the current price of their protein and rice dishes are $18 a plate, but I believe it’s worth it, you get plenty of food, cooked to order in under 15min.

Good people, generous, original murals on two walls, one of the sea and shore; I got to meet the lovely person who has run Horn of Africa for years and her son, a young professional: I enjoyed the fried tilapia with basmati rice and a side salad, called ahead with my order for

Really good food! Prices are different from what is advertised online though. $9 vs $16 is quite a price hop.

Tasty, but not as good as Somali Restaurant (Nutrition & Ethnic foods.), Midnimo, or Noor. Better than Global Place.They were out of almost everything I tried to order, possibly due to supply chain issues, though this does not seem to plague the other African restaurants in town.The green sauce is the second spiciest in town. The lamb was tender but not as tender as Midnimo or Noor. Rice was flavorful but had too many whole black peppercorns for my taste.Parking can be difficult on Sundays as they share their lot with a church.Parking: Parking can be difficult on Sundays as they share their lot with a church.
