Warm and Cozy. The service was immaculate. The Sambusa was sooooo good with the spicy sauce. I received lamb and rice by a patron who recommended it to me. Overall I am so happy I stopped in as I was washing clothes next door l. Definitely give them a try. You’re going to love the flavor!!
Incredible lunch and lovely owner. She will tell you what you want to eat and she will be correct. The Somali ginger black tea is unreal
Very flavorful. I will be getting often from here on out.
