Chicken and Rice
This place does a small menu of authentic Somalian food, super tasty and not as spicy as you might imagine. Limited drink selection and the dinning room is a small hallal market. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

The food and service here are amazing! My very first time eating any type of African dishes, goat/rice and veggies and tilapia/rice and veggies, and both were delicious and the service I received was genuine and detail oriented. The server walked me through their menu explaining what everything was. Many locals came and grabbed their meals here too which speaks about the authenticity of the food. Highly recommended! 6/5 stars ?

Amazing food, she guided me towards the goat which was tender and delicious. Meal came with soup, large main dish including rice and salad, water bottle, samosas, and a bannana. And I bought a house dress after talking to another customer about the clothes. So worth it.

I accidentally ended up at Amir’s as the Ethiopian restaurant I was visiting was closed. I explained was unfamiliar with the East African cuisine and immediately was given some delicious tea and samples of the yummy samosas and sweet bread. The very friendly owner offered to make me whatever Ethiopian food I was craving and explained her own dishes. I decided on a veggie platter and a goat and rice dish . It was all delicious. I am so glad I found this place and this will now be my go whenever I pass through the area. Highly recommend!!! They can make so much more than the few dishes on the menu
Vegetarian options: I asked for an Ethiopian veggie platter

Probably one of the few actual “halal z” places. If you’re in the mood for halal desi food this is the place. Yes it’s Somali, but the food will hit the spot. Ignore the interior decor and just enjoy big portions at a great price. This rice dishes re basically pulaos, the chai is excellent, and the samosas are on point.
