I met my friend here for dinner tonight and loved it. We got chicken, goat, fish, and samosas. All of them were fantastic. The rice was super flavorful too. I definitely want to come back! read more

See all

Don't be discouraged if you think this place is closed because it's dark they're not. It's just that all the windows and the front door is tinted. Also, their hours on Google are really not their business hours. They need to change that. I think this place opens up sometime around 1:00 or 2:00 pm If you don't know, this is an African restaurant, I believe Somalian So that means it's all halal The menu is super simple. We're talking about chicken, goat and fish. basically you decide your protein and it's paired with some very good rice And a small salad if you need a little bit more than he does offer samosas. Now as simple as this menu is, the food was really good and the portions were nice sizes. Let me not forget the very good tasting complimentary tea. From my experience, the gentleman that runs this establishment is very nice which made the service great. Pretty simple layout All of the seating is booth style they do accept cards and offer tap which is great and convenient. Because some small businesses make it difficult when they only accept cash. They have a couple kinks to iron out but this place is a gem. So if you're in the mood for some good food check out Waaberi. read more

Had a great time stopping by Waaberi Restaurant. A friend recommended it and I got the chicken and tea. The tea had a great flavor to it and the chicken and sauce were very flavorful. The staff was very helpful and friendly. It was also a great value and enough food for leftovers! read more

Tasty food, clean interior and the kindest staff possible. Tried this place on a lark. Did look closed. Went in anyway. The staff suggested tea while I waited and it was delicious. The food was filling and flavorful. I'm not local, but I will be back. read more

This restaurant is a hidden gem! If you drive too fast while on your way here, you might miss this place, just like I did. The place is homely, casual-to-eat, delicious Somali food(I'm not sure!) I ordered the goat meat with rice and had tea. It was so delicious!!! The rice portions are for two! The owner gave me so much rice that I could not finish in one sitting. The service was fast even though the guy was by himself. If you are looking for a place to enjoy authentic Somali/African food, check out this place, and you will enjoy their food just like I did. read more

Just go and get with they are cooking. Had the goat and the chicken and samosa. Wow, amazing. Highly recommend

A luncheonette-style start-up on the tail end of the South Grand strip, Waaberi has a short menu of curries and appetizers. The owner-chef-waitstaff is very friendly and eager to please. We had a curried chicken dish with potatoes and a goat entree. Both were very good. The goat was a bit gristly, but then again, that's goat for you. We had appetizers that I think were called "somposas" -- triangles of meat-filled crust. They were killer, as was the hot sauce that came with them. Highly recommend them. Waaberi is a work in progress, but a great addition to our community and well worth a visit. Or two. Or more. read more
