Banaadiri Restaurant

Made to feel so welcome when we visited. Came here with my wife and mum and they walked me through the food options and I ordered, for £30 there was a great amount of food to feed us all and everyone was so friendly and happy to help us as we'd never tried Somali food before, we'd recommend this place to everyone and regarding the comments about hygiene and a lack of welcoming atmosphere I'm very surprised because everything was fresh, tasted great and the place was well maintained and we felt like welcomed guests and everyone was greatful that we came to take our time to appreciate Somali food and culture ❤️

Best somalian food i’ve ever tasted highly recommend the beef steak and rice and definitely eat in, to all the Bengali’s in the area and everyone else pop in to this shop, it’s a must try, amazing portions great food and packed full of flavour, you won’t leave it feeling hungry and also very well priced. And also perfect for people who go to gym, get that protein in, loads of meats available and also everything is Halal👌

Another goated spot in finsbury park with great Somali food, nice friendly staff as well.  There isn't a menu, so go the the front and ask questions about what they have and what your preferences are. The lamb is quality, and a starter soup is provided as well as a banana for dessert. Portion sizes are amazing and the whole meal costs around £12 which is amazing value for money. Pretty good spice level to the food as well

My 65 year old mother and I popped into this cafe for a coffee, as we had sometime before she could check into the hotel across the road. We were instantly ushered by the waiter behind a closed curtain. It soon became apparently that the curtain was to segregate men and women, as there was another man and woman behind the curtain, and on the other side men only. We instantly left. This café clearly would prefer to live under the Taliban than in a free UK.

I recently had the pleasure of joining a Somali colleague for a meal at Banadiri Restaurant on our way to an assessment. We tried the Sughaar with Haneed, and it was absolutely delicious—highly recommended! As a Pakistani at a Somali restaurant, I felt incredibly welcomed. The hospitality was truly outstanding
