Food tasted amazing and was great value. Fragrant spices and tender meat with generous portion sizes. The staff were also helpful and kind. This was our first experience with Somali food but it certainly won’t be our last!

Where do I stop? The food is absolutely amazing. Somali food has always been such a vibe to have with friends. Very generous people. In fact they will offer a refill if you like. Never been such a place in my entire life. I highly recommend it.

First time trying Somalian food, and it was so flavorful and tasty giving you that I want more feeling. The owner and chef is a very nice and friendly person. We ordered the lamb for two, finger licking falling off the bone meat. It was so good that we decided to try the goat. I have to say that the competition was fierce, and it ended up being a tie between the two DELICIOUS! I said DELICIOUS Try it, you will be hooked. So goooood

Stopped to read the menu on the door. Invited in by owner to try a share platter for lunch today. The lamb, spiced rice and salad plate ($25 for 2) was terrific. This was accompanied by a wonderful lamb broth. Coupled with great service we will definitely be back for more.

Great tasty food!
They don't offer dine in due to the lack of wait staff.
But highly recommended for takeaways.
The lamb and goat roasts are superb

This is an amazing place serving amazing East African cuisine (Somalian) cooked by the man himself who also runs this place.

What's also unique about this place is the hospitality, extremely warm and welcoming.

Highly recommended.

$20-Lamb
Friendly owner recommended the plate for 1 person and you can choose lamb or goat. First coming is a soup with a rich flavor and it is really hot. I like it but a little bit salty. And then is a big portion of plate with lamb, rice and salad. Lamb is so tender and you can easily to separate the meat and bone. And you can dipping the spicy sauce to increase the flavor. Rice contain a lot of spice, it tastes good. Recommended it!

I ordered from New Somali Kitchen to cater for a work function and the food was loved by everyone - even had numerous coworkers say it’s the best food they’ve had at a work event! The customer service was also the best I’ve experienced! Abdo also went above to help me deliver the food as I was unable to fit everything in my car. Would definitely recommend! Thanks Abdo!

I love that the friendly owner came over to recommend some shared plates for us, since we had no idea what to expect. We started off with some amazing hot broth, then had our main meal of rice with lamb, goat, bananas (? !) and some salad. The meat was incredibly flavorful and tender - falling off the bone - and accompanied by a spicy sour sauce and delicious rice side studded with cloves and sultanas. It was the perfect amount of food for the three of us - we'll definitely be back again!
