This small, family owned and operated restaurant has a small but powerful menu. The flavors were phenomenal. We were so glad our nephew brought us here. It's his favorite place in the SLC area. This little lace is a real gem!

What an amazing experience! Some of the best food I have ever had. I had the lamb and rice and the lamb was so tender and I never knew you could make rice taste so delicious. The seating space in this restaurant is limited so get there early or call in your order. The portions of food are huge and I will be coming back again in the near future.

Hours have changed due to Ramadan. Will try next time we're in town. Looking forward to eating there for breakfast and dinner.

The food was really tasty and flavorful. The ambiance was a little lacking but a great "hole in the wall" type vibes. A bit on the spicy side though (I loved it, my husband didn't) so beware!

Visited this Somali restaurant while I was in Park City for a ski weekend . We had a craving for Somali food so we made the 40+ mile trip to Noor restaurant. It did not disappoint! We had the Beef steak, Lamb and Macaroni with Alfredo. They didn't have fresh Shah (Somali Chai) so the nice lady made it fresh for us. The chai was piping hot, made with boiled milk, cardamom and star anise. The tea was my favorite part of the meal but the best dish was the beef steak- extremely flavorful with tomatoes, onions and xawaash (a variety of mixed spices used in Somali dishes.). Do not underestimate this unassuming gem!

Noor consistently delivers delicious African food. The breaded steak and rice is indescribably good. I mean, I suppose I should try to describe the flavor with this being a food review and all, but I can't. Hop on over to Noor for yourself and find out for yourself...

I have desperately wanted to try African food for awhile now, specifically fufu thanks to social media blasting it everywhere. The food was amazing. I had the chicken and fufu. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

I was SHOCKED at how good this meal was. I got the chicken and rice, which was so good and spicy savory! The service was nice and quick, and the interior of the restaurant was clean and quiet. It's a great place to go for work lunches since they make all the food to order. Will come back!

The food was awesome, we were simply bummed out about the sambusa, apparently they have orders until about noon The lamb came out rather quickly, and was prefectly cooked. I ended up rolling the chapatti and lamb like burritos. The ranch and jalapeño paste all went well together.. The bottled water did concern me at first, but everything turned out fantastically
