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

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!

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.

Lamb shank is to die for. Very tender and well prepared. The side of green sauce made me say Yummy! (No idea what it was called but could taste the lemon in it)

Food was absolutely delicious! Humble setting, amazing food! Goat and lamb were fall off the bone tender. Seasoning on the goat was unlike any we had ever had, very authentic. We will be back!

Holy cow! Or should I say lamb. The food here is delicious. I had the chicken chapati stew, my husband had the roast lamb shank, we shared the Somali handpies (sambousa?). Everything was excellent and fresh. Spiced perfectly. The lamb was incredibly tender. Only a few tables in the dining area, nice little grocery & trinket area to browse while waiting for food. So happy to have found this hidden gem.Kid-friendliness: Was easy to find a spot for our infant carrier. Some cool kid toys for sale in the shop area.

The lamb shank and beef suqaar were so good - seasonings were delightful. The portions were generous - I came super hungry and left really full.
