“Been ordering from RedRed a number of times now - sometimes during the day or late night. Maybe I’ve just been consistently lucky, but contrary to some these comments, I’ve been really enjoying their food so far! Jollof and turkey tail has been my go-to, even at 3am, and it’s been consistent. The one time something was missing in my order I messaged them about it and they addressed it, so at least it shows that they listen and take feedback well. I usually order through ChowNow since they have better prices than delivery apps and they also deliver up to 20 miles. I’d definitely recommend!“

“I had just missed my flight back home and after 5 hours at the airport things began to look rather grim. I then decided to take a walk and by complete luck happened to use this location as a pickup spot for my Uber. What started as me wanting a small snack then turned into a newfound appreciation for Somali cuisine and an eating experience I will have yet to forget. Tawakal Halal gave me the best food and service in about 14 minutes than other establishments have managed to give me in an hour, so great in fact, that I wouldn’t have forgiven myself if I didn’t go a second time before I left. The food by itself is beyond amazing and I could write a whole review entirely on how great the food is, however, my personal favorites were the Goat Biryani and the Halwa as an excellent dessert option after. In addition to the food, the service here was amazing as well. The staff were always making sure I had everything I needed and doing everything they could to make my experience there a pleasant one, even offering me tea as I waited for my Uber. All in all, the best way I could describe this café to anyone wanting to know more about it is that it is truly everything you could ever ask for in a dining experience: fantastic food and amazing service. It even no longer made me upset that I missed my flight that day for if I hadn’t, I would have never been able to find this gem of a café. Thank you, Tawakal Halal, so much for giving me an experience I will never forget and know that when I return to Boston, you can bet the first stop on my itinerary will be your café.

“We were a party of three, and we opted to order the appetizer platter. Unfortunately, the server let us know that they didn't have a lot of what was on it (they only had meat pies and puff puff). We all ordered jollof rice, which was incredibly flavorful. I got the moi moi, talk about insanely delicious and the fried yam. The stew that came with it for dipping was again so good. My mum had the salmon, which she said was a little on the dry side, but still had a nice flavor. My daughter had the beef and fried plantains. She said it was delicious, and I concur that it was since I took a bite. The service was so so after we got our food. It could've been because it was a Friday night, and they had a lot of take out orders. The staff was nice and welcoming, though.

I highly recommend going to eat here. The food is very authentic and so full of flavor, and you won't break the bank.“
