I can't recommend this place enough. The service, atmosphere and food are all absolutely fantastic. You've got to check it out! The service was top notch from moment we walked in. We were welcomed with open arms and promptly greeted and shown our seats. Just minutes after we received the menu they surprised us with a complimentary appetizer- Sombusa and Somali Tea which was really good and it was all on the house!!! The entire place was sparkling clean, modern and oh so comfortable. The food was beyond delicious we decided to go all out and ordered the family plate with rice and pasta and it came with four different types of meats. Every bite burst with amazing flavors it was a true feast that left us incredibly satisfied and happy. Can't wait to go back and try more dishes from their menu. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
