    Three of us had a quick dinner: 3 appetizers and 3 tapas (we shared all of them) and everyone liked everything. Desert was great too. Quick and attentive service allowed us to be out of the restaurant in just 45 minutes. The place is a bit pricey, but worth it.

    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 ❤️
