    Everything we ordered was so delicious. We had the little gem Cesar salad, the Manti, the fried Moroccan chicken for two, and a side of Brussel sprouts. The standouts for me were the Manti and the chicken. Our server was also great and surprised me with a Kadayif cheesecake for my birthday. I really loved the vibe of the restaurant and look forward to coming back!

    You must try this restaurant. The team that works here is amazing. All of them. The host and hostess were so sweet and polite. We felt welcomed to be there while we waited about a minute to get our table. The lounge and bar are beautiful. Our server was the sweetest. I accidently tossed the receipt so I don't have her name. Our bussboy/server assistant was great as well. The food runner was so polite and informative about all of our dishes. Now lets talk about the amazing food, plating and dish selections. They could not have done a better job if they tried. We loved it all and the homemade pita bread was to die for. The most delicious hummus. The beat and pear salad, the house salad and the eggplant we just some delicious. The falafel just melted in your mouth. There were mouth watering meatballs as well. There were pickled vegetables and a yummy salad as well. It was well balanced. The small plates and bowls with the color selections were something off of a cooking show. You will be spoiled by it all. We skipped dessert, only because we were trying to be good. The pumpkin dessert and the chocolate candy bar cake was enjoyed by others around us. It looked so amazing. I did get the Lebanese coffee semi sweet and there take of an espresso martini that was made with tequila. Both were so delicious. Before leaving I made sure to tell the managers how wonderful everything was so they could let the team know. They were so appreciative and humble. I could tell they all love working there. If you want to have an amazing time, you must eat here. You will not be disappointed.

    Thanksgiving: where do I start? Touching all senses from the ambiance to the minimalistic modern yet eclectic decor all on point. The attentive service made it really feel special. Particularly since it’s a holiday evening and it’s a special night out. It truly felt that way. Bradly, The Somalia was not only so knowledgeable, but charming and engaging.  first course was all of my favorite things, but what stood out was every fresh note of the hummus with pomegranate seeds. Paired with a crop pine sap white wine. Followed by the fresh crisp combination of apples, fresh greens cranberry pomegranate, crème fraîche. The flavors were literally dancing. Third course, falafel with cilantro, tomatoes, mint, and a bunch of other goodness ! And if you’re looking for a unique turkey experience, definitely try the turkey mixed with wild mushroom compote wrapped in Filo dough served on hummus with steamed vegetables!!! OUTSTANDING ❤️
