Delicious! We were passing through Portland and wanted to try something new so we ended up here. We got the beef sumbuusa and chicken suqaar and it was really tasty! It was our first experience with this type of food and reminded us a bit of Indian food. The green sauce was spicy and we loved it. Portion was generous. Highly recommend!

Was passing through with my girlfriend and have never had Somali food. It didn’t disappoint!! Best goat meat I have had, and I have had more than a few plates of goat before. Will be back when we visit!

Order by delivery, the foods temperature when arrived are still warm like straight from the oven. Taste like home (authentic and original's recipe). Basmathi rice cooked perfectly, lamb shank is tender and perfect balanced taste. You cooked a great foods!!

So great! All of the dishes we got (sambusa, veggie and chicken suqaar, and goat meat platter) were amazing. Will definitely be coming back!

Maria was wonderful. They were swamped with Ramadan orders and she still took a few moments to welcome us as first time visitors, and even gave us a plate of appetizers while we waited for or meals. The food was absolutely delish, affordable, and there was SO much of it! Our 2 orders could have fed 4 easily (and the leftovers were so good the next day). There were a few tables to sit down and eat, but it seems like they might do mainly to-go business. This reminded me of some the small family run deli style restaurant in Mexico, Thailand and Hong Kong. The menu is different than you will find online, I had the beef with veg and sticky cornmeal, he had lamb shank and chicken with rice. We will for sure be going back!
