Best WLM Reviews

Came here with a large group of grad students. We filled up the whole restaurant. The owners went above and beyond to accommodate us, the service and the food were fantastic!
Nice local establishment. A very "niche" place. East African/Somali dishes. The food is great. Very large portions. The lady that took the order was super nice. We came here once before COVID, then it closed. I'm glad they reopened and have renovated. I will be bringing co-workers and my family over next times.
2 weeks later went again with kids. Ordered the family meal. It was well received by the kids and A LOT of food.
Place just reopened recently after renovation and it was spectacular!!! They’re still fixing up some grill issues so some foods weren’t available but the kind service and food made up for it! Food may take a while to cook but I it’s one or two people doing everything and they do make it fresh to order and make it with care!
Ordered the family rice meal with a mix of all the meats for $35. May I say it’s the best deal ever?? Flavors were very good and they gave sooo much rice, we took it home and ate it for like 4 separate meals cuz there was that much rice left which was so flavorful already. Also their Somali tea is fantastic! You can opt for it with or without milk and it’s definitely a tea I’ll crave. The sambusas were very delicious too, they tasted very similar to fried dumplings!
Overall, a very nice local establishment with even more amazing staff!! Please give them a try!!
Whenever we go out of town we like to try someplace new to eat, and Brava did not disappoint! Great food and friendly service. The Sambusa and the Jabati with Suqaar were absolutely delicious! That green sauce was the perfect compliment to everything as well. Next time we're in the area we will definitely be stopping by again.
If you want to experience a fairwork of flavors in your moth, you came to the right place. We ordered Canjeero, which is basically a traditional Ethiopian flat bread with a side of chicken, stakes, delicious tomatoes sauce, and salad. And don't be afraid of getting messy while eating this dishe. Use your hand and use your fork whatever is required to enjoy this mouthwatering dish. The food for sure was original and authentic. And i highly recommend it. And don't let me forget about the welcoming owner. She was so generous and patient with us answering all our questions about the menu.
We loved our time there, and we definitely are visiting again.
Chicken and rice was delicious. Service was great and the sweet cinnamon tea was delicious. Fair prices, drinks included. Awesome place!
Amazing food, ultra friendly service. We got the steak and the Jabati. It was sooo good we were talking about what we would get next time while we were eating. Love the perfect blend of flavors and spices.
We had fabulous food. Everything was so delicious and the owners were so gracious. More food that we could handle so will have some delicious leftovers!
