Hamdi - Etobicoke

Good sitting arrangement. Ordered Goat and beef. Not the greatest taste. Salmon was okay.

I can't explain why I am obsessed with their food. The meat is cooked perfectly, the ingredients are just right, and the rice is delicious. I'm curious about their recipe!

The dinners here cost around 13 and come with a salad and choice of side (rice, spaghetti, or chapati bread). I opted for the Beef Steak with Spaghetti and also tried the mango juice, which was tasty. Surprisingly, the meal also came with a banana. The beef steak was tender and flavorful, marinated and grilled before being tossed with bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes. The portion of spaghetti was quite generous, almost too much to finish in one sitting. The mango juice was excellent and definitely worth trying. The service was good, albeit the staff member was quiet and reserved. The prices may be a bit high compared to other options in the area, but the portion sizes make up for it. Overall, if you're willing to spend a little extra, Hamdi Restaurant is worth a visit. And yes, the banana was good too, but it's just a banana after all.

This was my first experience trying Somali food and I am addicted! I love this bright flavours especially in the rice. the portions were generous. I had the chicken steak which could have used a litte sauce but it was still good. my friend had the chicken stew which was generously seasoned and perfectly cooked. we will definitely be back

The food and cutlery were clean. The taste was good. The rice was enjoyable. Thank you.
