The first time I tried this platter I was over the moon. It was a 10/5 tbh and absolutely perfect. I just went there recently and got the lamb which unfortunately was a different experience. It tasted good but was really gummy and I felt like it was not as good as the beef. I would rate this a 3. I'm definitely looking forward to going back! I like that the majority of tables are family style, they offer coffee service and I've always felt the staff to be very friendly and accommodating. When you first enter there's like a bar and dance area but if you keep walking to the right then it turns into a restaurant with tables. I really enjoy this place and can't wait to show other friends and family!

The food was flavorful and spicy but not too spicy that made it hard to finish or required a bucket of water nearby. I also got a similar dish with goat meat. The goat was a bit too saucy for my liking, but otherwise it was a solid dish of jollof rice, corn, mixed veggies and plantains. This is a definite must eat again next time I am in the area!

Everything was packed really nicely and the portions are big. The lamb shank was fall off the bone and really well spiced. Everything we got was actually really nice in flavors. I got jollof rice with the meat and it was spicy but not overpowering. The plantains were really good and the salad was fresh. I love everything mango, so the mango lemonade was refreshing. My son enjoyed the chicken sambusa and my husband enjoyed the Afra chicken meal. I gave my son ketchup as a dip for the sambusa because although their sauces are very good, they are much too spicy for him. The Afra spicy sauce was good and my husband said it elevated his chicken meal. They also included crepes with our meal. I was not aware that they come with the meal or if they just gave us these as an extra. The crepes were huge though and delicious. They had the perfect amount of sweetness to them. We were late in picking up our meal, so appreciated the staff for holding it for us. The food was fairly warm even after the delay. We will definitely be back.

So many tempting choices offered, it's tough to decide. The minute you walk in the door, the smell of all the wonderful, tempting options will let you know you're getting the "real deal." You can create your own bowl, choosing the protein (chicken, goat, fish...) and the toppings and sauces to your taste. Speaking of taste, the woman at the counter very helpfully gave me a taste sample of several different options. Both the regular and spicy chicken were super flavorful, and I've tried Somali goat meat before (very flavorful!) but trying to keep it light(er) since I had a plane to catch in a few hours, I got a veg. bowl, with a sampling of both types of rice and (woops!!) and spaghetti add on (carb-o-licious!!). Should have added on the salad, that might have made a bit more sense! Anywhooooooo, my bowl was DELICIOUUS, as was the veg. sambus I added on, and super reasonably priced for the quantity (and deliciousness!!) of food I was served. Come HUNGRY, leave VERY happy and FULL!! Beautiful, cozy dining room, great service, and a WONDERFUL way to support our pan-African neighbors!! Mmmmmmmmmmm!!

I'd never had anything like it before, but I'd happily go again just for that--the goat was cooked perfectly too. The other parts of the meal were pretty good but not as spectacular.

While I was waiting on my food we talked a little but about the culture and history of where Swahili food came from and her story. I got my order to go. I got a beef sambusa and the chicken white rice. Wow...the food was delicious! I didn't want to stop eating it. The rice was perfectly fluffy, the flavors of the chicken and kale were delightful. the portion was large enough to make two meals out of it. The sambusa was yummy as well.
