Delicious food and well portioned!!…read more Everything we ordered was absolutely delectable! Juicy meats, well flavored. We got shawarma wraps, a shawarma combination plate and a kebab plate. Every one was a hit. The tabbouli salad was not our favorite but other than that.. chefs kiss! We also got some baklava for dessert which came in two different shapes and both were a nice treat to end the meal.

I stopped in and not only was not greeted but a Middle Eastern man injured the building after I did and he was greeted and got full on conversation plus his order taken. I don't want to make this about anything other than being professional while at work. While I have entered this establishment before and another gentleman and their child or young person greeted me and engaged me in conversation that was not my experiment this time. I got the Pomango Passion.

We are from out of town and my friends took us there! What a great find! As a gluten free person, I…read morewas very excited about all the options! We were there for a late lunch and we had to wait maybe 20 minutes for a table. I got the passion fruit drink which was good. We also got the chips with the dipping sauce. That was a lovely way to start the meal. I love plantains so I was very excited to see it was part of most of the dishes. I got the kumuhama chicken. It comes with your choice of rice, beans, plantains and corn salad. It is flavorful without being spicy. I tried my friends' dishes and they were good too. The serving size is good and I think most people have enough to take some leftover home. We tried 2 of the desserts. The Tamu is very interesting and not too sweet if you aren't into overly sweet treat. The coco mango is more traditional "parfait " but still lovely. If I lived around, I would definitely hang there a bunch!

Had a nice birthday dinner here! It's more casual an environment than I expected, and was booked up…read moreon a Saturday evening. We ordered sambusa for an appetizer, and I honestly could have eaten like 10 of these as a meal. They were SO GOOD an honestly my favorite thing here. Awesome flavor in the chicken and the dipping sauce is something I would bottle and take home. You get the option to do half/half on the coconut or spiced rice with the entrees. We recommend the spiced for more flavor, but opt for both if you're curious about the coconut. I had the kumuhana chicken. The chicken had a nice smoky flavor. I didn't enjoy the plantains much. There was a huge portion of them and I found them bland...didn't eat them all. I enjoyed the beans, but overall the dish needed some pickled onions or something bright to lighten it up. The corn salad helped, but it needed more. The spinach in the nyumbani was another favorite item -- very good flavor and would have eaten a side of just that with bread or something. Would definitely return here if in the area to house some sambusa, but we won't be going out of our way to try this again.

My mom and I stopped in on a chilly afternoon, looking to warm up with something cozy. The café itself is small but inviting, with a few booths and tables for dining in. The woman behind the counter was such a sweetheart. She was genuinely friendly and welcoming. They were out of my mom's favorite dessert (the Yemeni honeycomb), but we went for two cups of mint tea instead ($2.99 each, regular size). Even the regular cups were huge, and I'm pretty sure one is enough to share between two people. The tea came with real mint leaves, which gave it that fresh, earthy flavor that hits perfectly with a touch of sugar. Just a tip: remove the leaves after a few minutes so the tea doesn't turn bitter.

The store definitely seemed newer. They said they were best known for their desserts however I did not have the opportunity to try them. I did have some coffee and overall it was really good but it is a little overly sweet. If you have a sweet tooth this is definitely the place for you! Service was excellent!

The only good thing about this place is that they are open late. I have gone twice in recent times…read morebeing the last two months and the past two times I've gone my order has either been wrong taking an extra long time or made at a lower quality. I went today and the bowl that I ordered had coconut on it. I specifically requested for there not to be coconut on it. I am not allergic, but I hate the taste and it makes me sick, but my food took so long that I am just gonna have to go through it because I do not have time to wait for it to be remade Do not be fooled by the signage either I purchased a açai bowl, which is advertised at 10, and I purchased a smoothie advertised at $9. In theory this should total $19 before tax and with six cents on every dollar should add an additional $1.14 totaling to $20.14 I was charged $22.06. In short, only go here if you are desperate or want something really late like I did as I recently just got off of work and needed to eat something but do so at your own risk as you are likely to be overcharged and your food will come out low quality. Not to mention, I watched people come in and order after I did and still receive their item before I did
