Salad with chicken for a high protein meal. Chapati wrap for a filling hot sandwich. My go to deli for quick good eats.

It has been a while since I’ve visited this location. The spices are still good but it feels like inflation has forced them to cut some corners to keep prices down where they can serve the community. Still way better than a McDonald’s or Subway meal but no longer amazing.

Heard about all the reviews and awards this restaurant was receiving so I had to check it out. Staff was kind and helpful with my order. Somalian sandwich and fries are delicious! Will continue to eat here!

Loved going to the location on east bank and this one is even better. Beautiful open kitchen with lots of seating. Food is always great and at a fair price. Quick and friendly service. My favorite is the somali steak sandwich and their fries are amazing.

Ordered my food through DoorDash for pickup. Arrived later to pickup my food from DD’s promised time. Got to the counter and my order wasn’t even ready for pickup but luckily it only took two scoops (one scoop of rice and one scoop of curry). I dined in after receiving my food. The atmosphere is decent. The food used to be good but I noticed it was bland during this encounter and the one before. I guess it’s quantity over quality now. I like to support small businesses because of their unique/authentic, local taste but.. I will try again in a few months.

Some of the best food I’ve had, and the first time I’ve seen the concept of an ethnic “fast food” done well.

Good customer service. Reasonable prices. Food presentation looks great. Veggies Fantastic is my favorite dish. This visit it was different. Carrots chucks were really cut large and there were baby corn this time which it didn’t taste good when I bite it. So I removed all the baby corn and made the best of the rest.
