Excellent food and lovely staff. We had a great time! As soon as I stepped in the door and caught the mouthwatering aroma coming from the kitchen I knew the food was going to be insanely good. The basbaas hot sauce is HOT but SO flavourful. We shared 5 dishes and everything was absolutely delicious. My only regret is that I forgot to take photos of the food because we were too busy eating it. One of my favourite food experiences in Calgary.
Don't judge a book by its cover.This little Somali Restaurant lured me because I was traveling with my friend who has a limited diet...but goat is on her allowed foods list. We have eaten at numerous East African restaurants in Edmonton but were traveling through Calgary and needed to find a similar restaurant.On the surface, Luubann is not in an ideal neighborhood and parking is hard to find. It is such a little unassuming dining establishment that one might think it's not worth a stop. And it's certainly not a fancy place.We would not have normally stopped there if it wasn't because of the diet of my friend. But I am so glad we did. The lady at the front was so kind and sweet. We ordered a goat and a beef and we were thrilled. And to top it all off, she brought us two soups for free.I am so glad to share this review and the five stars. We'll be back.
Absolutely loved the food and the people who own it are so nice, 10/10 experience. I knew id be coming back before I even left.
Nothing fancy, just super delicious food. We had the goat soup and the lamb entree. The food was well prepared, presented and packed with delightful flavours. The service was good with an easy-going and friendly atmosphere. We will definitely be back to try the many other different entrees. Highly recommended.
Food is amazing! Service, not so much
Honestly, food was really good. But the staff was not friendly at all, barely spoke to me when I walked in, and asked for my order in a forward non-welcoming way. Pictures of the food on the menu also doesn't look that appetizing but it was surprisingly very good.
The food was delicious.Came in late like an hour before they closed and they still served us professionally.Lay helped keep my wife's earrings when it fell off
Friendly place, good ethnic food.
Very nice place and good food
Good food my only problem is my goat meat was substituted for lamb without my knowledge or consent! But the owner was nice enough to make me another goat plate free of charge, and let me say that was so tasty and well prepared
