“Going to this place and enjoying the smell of freshly grilled kebabs made me nostalgic. The food itself took me back to a place where I once lived and created magical memories. There aren’t many places in the world where you can have a food experience like the one they offer. The service was also amazing—the staff was helpful, even when I went just minutes before closing. If you want a taste of the East, if you desire a memorable meal, I highly recommend going there to enjoy an authentic and affordable experience that truly takes you beyond.“

“The restaurant seems from the first look normal or low quality and cleanliness. But to be honest it has the best Iraqi way fish which they called MASGOOF. We had the best lunch today and the owner he is an old man recommended us ALQATAN fish a big one like 10 bounds fish and cooked it with the Iraqi way. It’s amazing, very delicious and juicy. The taste will never come out from my mouth“

“A huge thank you to the SDSU location! I only had cash on me, which they don't take, and the staff was so kind. They let me have my falafel naanarito anyway. The food is always great, but it was extra delicious with the side of compassion today! I went back to pay later. Thank you again for the kindness and the yummy lunch. Both make the world a better place.“

“First time here and not disappointed. Didn't have a long wait like others said. The doma was excellent. I got the combo to try their meats - beef kabob, chicken Tikka, and beef shawarma. All were seasoned well, especially the shawarma...very bold. But it's the cook on the meat that set them apart! All 3 were tender, juicy, and savory. Too many overcook these but they just melted in my mouth. Highly recommended.“

“During our recent visit, it was impossible not to notice that nearly every table had ordered the "2 Person or More Sports Plate." At just $35, this platter is an absolute steal, especially given the generous portions. The chicken and beef were seasoned to perfection, delivering a depth of flavor that truly impressed. The pasta, served with a marinara sauce — my toddler’s favorite. The platter also came with a fresh, crisp salad and refreshing mixed drinks, making it a well-rounded meal. You can feel the warmth and love in hearty Somalian food.

We opted for the watermelon and mango drinks, which were delightfully sweet and refreshing — just what we needed on a sweltering summer day.

The service was exceptional; the staff was not only attentive but genuinely warm and welcoming. To top it all off, they surprised us with complimentary sambusas, a thoughtful touch that left a lasting impression.

Overall, this spot delivers on both quality and value, making it a must-try for anyone looking to enjoy a satisfying, well-priced meal for a family. Highly recommended!

Dietary restrictions: All meats offered are halal.

Parking: There is a spacious private parking lot.

Kid-friendliness: The food is mild in spicy levels so my toddler loved it. They offer a sectioned off table if you would like privacy.“
