Somali Omaha

Delicious food freshly cooked, really nice owner who answered our questions. Highly recommend the Sambusas. Go inside the door and walk all the way down the hall to find it.

This is a small locally owned business. The appetizers of Sambusa and pillow bread are outstanding. The Sambusa of this day was full of spiced tender beef, carrots, and onions making it a great tasting meat hand-pie. The pillow bread was a perfect vehicle to scoop up the chickpeas. The meat platter includes spiced stir fried beef, chicken and fried fish. To note, the fish was seasoned deliciously, very lightly breaded, and cook to tender goodness. I liked the sides veggies that came with the meal of a chickpea stew and braised collard greens. The meal was also accompanied with rice (not pictured) and the rice was a lovely pilaf style rice. Pro tip, this is a long building and the entrance to this restaurant is on Douglas St NOT 25th st. Open the door, and you will be met with a long hallway with 8 suites . This restaurant is at the very end on the right. If the sign says closed, but the door to the suite is open, the restaurant is open. To note about the decor, it is sparse. The overhead lighting in the dining area is on a 2 min motion sensor, so if there aren 't a lot of people, you will have mood lighting most of the time. Also, the building and space is clean, but utilitarian. This place is about the food not decor.

Little hole in the wall place with some excellent, authentic food cooked to order. The lamb was incredible.

Simple but good and unique. Nice to give a different culture a try and I was not disappointed. Only one stop so far but would go back without question. Food all looks and smells good, makes it hard to decide what to get. I love a good gyro and look forward to trying theirs. Didn't on this trip but it looked very good with a few different options to choose from. Try the samosas! Good prices too.

The food is really great, but there were 3 different menus when we were in there (wall, tv, and handheld). We actually missed out on other great options because we had ordered from the incomplete wall menu. The staff does not inform you of this. Grab the handheld menu when you walk in.
