The best Somali restaurant in San Diego by far, the Goat Mandi was extremely tender with a fall off the bone texture. And the Chicken suqaar was extremely delicious with an addicting grilled flavor and amazing savory kick. The food was so good that even the rice was extremely flavorful, none of the spices overpowered it. The atmosphere was very well designed as well.
