Tonight's family dinner at the was a memorable experience, filled with flavors that transported us straight to the heart of Somalia. The portions were incredibly generous, ensuring everyone left feeling satisfied and content. Each dish was a testament to the rich culinary heritage of Somalia, bursting with authentic tastes that delighted our palates. While the food was exceptional, there were a couple of areas that could be improved. The lack of air conditioning made the dining experience a bit uncomfortable, especially on a warm evening. Additionally, the absence of a baby changing station in the restroom posed a challenge for families with young children needing to change diapers. However, the restaurant's thoughtful inclusion of a prayer room was a wonderful touch, demonstrating their commitment to accommodating the diverse needs of their patrons. Overall, the delicious food and generous portions more than made up for the minor inconveniences. If you're looking for an authentic Somalian culinary adventure, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit!

Always in to try something new and be amazed. I don't even remember seeing a Somalian restaurant, forget about trying one. Went for dine-in on a rainy Saturday and was impressed by the food. Agree with the remarks that service and atmosphere could have been better, but nothing wrong with the Roasted Goat combo I tried. Recommended to someone who's looking to expand their culinary experiences.

Decided to try hamdis after my brother told me about it. I ordered the roasted goat platter. It was really good and very reasonable price, especially considering they offer complimentary mango juice, salad and lentil soup. Would definitely come back to try more of the menu options.

The food was delicious. Masha Allah the roast goat was very tender and moist, alhamdulillah. Serving was large. They do accept credit card for in person order now. You can call ahead and place your order so it's ready when you get there. Services were excellent.

I had an amazing experience visiting this restaurant today. I was drawn by the reviews and I must say I am not disappointed. I ordered a chicken stew and it was amazing. I also was given a special sauce which was slightly spicy but that just made it taste even better. The service is amazing the staff was respectful and made sure we had everything we needed. Will definitely be returning here again and bringing more people to share the experience. Thank you Hamdi team you guys were amazing.

Went here for lunch with colleagues after spending a few hours bowling. Everyone’s appetite was pretty high so we were really looking forward to this lunch and the food did not disappoint! Let me just say the portions were more than generous for the price, but that didn’t take away from the incredible taste of the food. Three of us had the roasted goat, another had goat shoulder and one person had chicken. The goat dishes were absolutely amazing; the meat was tender, well seasoned, and savoury. The rice that came with the dish was surprisingly tasty and well balanced with the meat. All the dishes came with refreshing mango juice, which was awesome. The chapati that came with some of the goat dishes was okay, but was a little bit heavier than expected. I wish the dish came with some sort of spicy or mild sauce for the rice dish. The chicken was a little salty, but except those two cons, I was thoroughly satisfied with this restaurant. The customer service could use some cheering up though, not exactly bad, but just a little cheering up.
