For today, I only had time for a chai to go. The owner gave me a sambusa pastry to take with me. Very good savory lentil pastry. Has a bit of spice to it adding to the flavors. I recommend this local business.

It is Somali cuisine. Most of the dishes are a meat with either pasta or rice. I got the Goat with rice. They give you a pitcher of what seems like orange kool aid (sorry no disrespect). I can't really have sweets so I asked for a bottle of water. The staff members were friendly and accommodating. There is a sink on the outside of the men's room and I know in places like Afghanistan, they have these sinks to wash your hands because you eat with your hands - it is sunna to eat with your hands (spoons are also provided). They also have a little sectioned off area for people to pray in a similar way that places like House of Kebab have a prayer room. Everything is Halal and there seemed to be a fair amount of people in there. The rice was very flavorful. It reminded me of the rice at Al Rasoul or Osh. It had some raisin and red onion - the flavor combination was very delicious. The goat was as expected. The flavor was good, be wary of small bones. The cost may seem higher than expected but it was a LOT of food. I ate off it for the next several days. Also if you want to support a locally owned Somali business I recommend it.

What a hidden gem. I stopped in for lunch and had the Doro Wot (#19), and it was one of the best…read moremeals I've had in Nashville. The flavors were deep, complex, and perfectly spiced. Everything tasted fresh and made with care. I couldn't believe there weren't more customers because the food was excellent. Family-owned restaurants like this deserve support. I'll definitely be bringing my family back so they can try it too. Five stars!

DO NOT RECOMMEND!!…read more My friends and I unfortunately had an awful experience! The service was not great and the ambiance was basic. We waited 20 mins before we were asked for our beverage order and even longer to order food. We stayed because of our excitement to try. The server kept forgetting our order and never told me the appetizer I ordered was sold out until I asked. I got the veggie plate and was disappointed because my food came out cold. My friends got the lamb and chicken, they hated it. I was told the meat was tough and not cooked well. Overall, none of us liked our food and will not go back

Delicious, fresh, and flavorful meats, veggies, and injera. All of the dishes were so satisfying.

I assume that they're Eritrean (Habesha cousins of Ethiopians) because the names of my favorite dishes seem to be a different language from their Ethiopian counterparts' Amharic. But the flavor was never lost in translation! I ordered Combo # 3 for $18.99. It comes with your choice of 4 vegetables (out of 5 preselected options) and one salad (out of three preselected choices). The side choices are quinoa, injera, or white rice. I confirmed with them that they use teff, meaning the injera is gluten free. They also offer 3 spice levels: regular, spicy, and extra spicy. I love all five vegetable options so it was hard to decide. I ended up choosing the Red Lentils, Yellow Lentils, Tikil Gomen (the cabbage dish), and Collard Greens. Everything was excellent! 10/10! (Everything I ordered was vegan and gluten free.) I ordered spicy because I love spicy food. But let me tell you... I was not prepared for the authentic African spices they hit me with. My bad! I will never underestimate them again. I had to literally sit the injera on my tongue first, then put the food in my mouth in order to finish my meal. LOL Next time I'll be a good little American and order it the normal way. I'll try their fosolia (green beans and carrots) next time. The Shiro also looks good, but it's only available as a full entree. They operate out of a food hall, so it's take out only. I ordered online and my food was ready at the promised time. The customer service was excellent and the lady (whom I'm assuming was the owner) was very nice and helpful. I will definitely order from them again.
