Description

Nestled in the heart of Minnesota, this Somali restaurant offers an authentic dining experience that attracts both local patrons and the curious. Diners rave about the flavorful dishes, particularly the curry chicken and sambusas, which are lauded for their generous portions and taste. However, some guests find the menu visibility problematic and are taken aback by prices. The atmosphere is vibrant, with many enjoying soccer games, yet the service can vary, as communication barriers may arise. Overall, this spot is a must-visit for adventurous eaters willing to explore diverse flavors, despite a few operational challenges.

The prices on the menu board were not visible. After we finished our meal, we found out it was $84 for 3 adults, a child, 2 bottles of soda, and a water. We were surprised by the high cost and will not be returning as customers.

This restaurant is focused on serving the local Somali population, as well as those who are willing to overcome the challenges of doing business with them. They have a menu with pictures, names, and low prices for a variety of Somali dishes. When we entered, we noticed many Somali people watching soccer games on YouTube, creating a local hangout vibe. We tried to ask questions at the cash register, but the person working there didn't speak much English and was not very helpful in explaining the dishes. Despite this, we ordered the Chicken Curry and found it to be okay but not particularly interesting. The dish had a tomato flavor with onions, peppers, and three chicken drumsticks, served with lettuce and fried bread.

Could someone please explain why I was not seated or helped? I was really looking forward to trying the food.
