West Bank Diner - Minneapolis

Really flavorful Somali food. Great homely environment and the service is amazing. We got free refills on drinks too!

First time here and I was not disappointed. Even with the language barrier, the employees got me my order and the portions were huge and tasted fantastic. The atmosphere was very nice too! Everyone was just relaxing or doing their own thing. Would definitely recommend!

The wait to have order taken and to get the order is over half hour every

A neighborhood diner for the Somali community, serving up tasty food in generous portions. This was my first time dining here. Ordered 2 entrees for breakfast; scrambled eggs for breakfast and a full order of fava beans. Both orders were accompanied by injera, a soft, fried flat bread, and small sides of yogurt and tamarind sauce for dipping. Washed down with 'Somali tea ', black tea flavored with cardamom and cinnamon and hot steamed milk. Show this place some love and eat here. Your tummy will thank you.

Portions were very large. We ordered the somosas, goat, chicken steak, and chicken suqaar. The goat was tender and cooked to perfection and the flavors of both chicken dishes were delicious. The mango lassi and tea with milk was perfect with the meal. It was my first time trying somali food and definitely not my last.
