" Delicious traditional Somali cuisine! The goat rice was amazing, and I will be back to try more items. It's not the cleanest place, but if you value good food over dining experience, this is definitely for you! The staff were welcoming and ensured my plate was filled. Overall a positive experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" This delightful little restaurant was a surprise find! The food was hearty and delicious. I had the chicken and rice and was impressed by the portion size compared to what I paid. The staff were friendly, but the atmosphere was somewhat lacking. If you're looking for a hidden gem for genuine flavors, this is your place! Just remember to manage expectations on cleanliness. " (*Curated Review*)

" The goat with rice is where this restaurant shines! The flavors are authentic and delicious, reminiscent of meals I've had elsewhere. Staff members were very hospitable. I hope they invest in cleaning the dining area soon because it’s such a great little spot for fulfilling lunch! " (*Curated Review*)

" A cozy eatery with heartwarming Somali flavors! I tried the goat and rice dish and was blown away by the authentic spices. The ambiance isn't what you'd call fancy, but it's the food that keeps people coming back. I encountered a very friendly staff as well - what a gem in Seattle! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Yusra & Sabah was quite an experience. The food has a homemade taste that brings back memories of my childhood. I ordered the fried chicken and goat with rice, and both were incredibly flavorful. The portions are large for the price, which is a huge plus. I wish the restaurant had a clearer cleaning routine, as I noticed a few flies around the tables. But if you're hungry and looking for authentic Somali cuisine, this is the place!

" An authentic Somali experience with delicious dishes! The goat and rice was perfectly done, and the fried chicken was a highlight. The people working there are very nice, which adds to the experience. Just wish they would clean the place more regularly; it did not feel hygienic. I'd recommend it for the food, but with a word of caution about the cleanliness. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! I have never tasted such authentic Somali food before! I was blown away by the goat plate and fried chicken. The flavors were vibrant and the food was beautifully seasoned. The place doesn't have much to offer atmosphere-wise, but everything else made the experience more than worthwhile. If cleanliness improves, I think this could easily become my go-to spot for Somali food! " (*Curated Review*)
