Barwaaqo Restaurant in Bristol, City of

Stopped by for dinner and my first time trying out Somali food. We had fried chickens and pilaf rice. The portion is enough for two. The meat was tender and the skin was 2 die 4!!!

It's a very nice place, The food is amazing.

As Indonesians, we love the food! Great portions, reasonable prices!

Very bad service and arrogant stuff

Amazing food and good service ..

Delicious food, super friendly, will absolutely be back.

A wonderful Somali restaurant. I’m not Somali but I ate there today and the soup, lamb, rice and juice was marvellous. Thanks for the good meal

Great authentic Somalian food. This place is all about taste. Value for money, can have a flavoursome meal for £10.

Couldn't have been made more welcome. The food and value were both exceptional.😋

Broth into lamb & rice into banana and breads. Bang bang!

Very nice 👌 lovely 😍 halal food

I tried ordering two meals from Uber Eats yesterday and the order cancelled because items had sold out. I ordered two meals today and my entire meal didn’t come. Steak had sold out and no pasta or drink. I was grateful for the meat substitute, but it wasn’t enough and I still had no pasta to eat it with. I tried calling the restaurant a few times but no answer. Will not order again, which is a shame because there are no other Somali restaurants on delivering sites.

The restaurant was filthy, with dirty tables and floors. To make matters worse, a rat was seen scurrying across the dining area. Absolutely disgusting and unacceptable. Avoid at all costs.

The food literally came within a minute. We weren’t somali, but the staff treated us like we were somali…I guess i’m somali now? We were met with a big smile by one of the managers I’m assuming and he was very hospitable. All in all, a good spot for somali food.

The food and service was really good

Had lamb shank really enjoyed, friendly owners and I want to try lamb rack and salmon next

Amazing food. They catered for an Eid event at my work place. Amazing rice and chicken. Love it!

The best East African &Middle East food in Bristol

The best Arabic food in Bristol.

Very good food, and extremely nice and kind people. We will come back

I was searching for a restaurant after I got lost :D and I found this restaurant by luck .. I tried and got shocked how nice was the food and simple friendly staff :D I want to go again and again :)

Homely food. This is the first somalian cuisine I have tried. It is fantastic.The aroma of the rice is incredible and tasty. Their lamb curry is top notch. The food is super delicious and their portions are quite good. Further they top up rice for free. This place is always crowded with people so it’s little clumsy and takeaway is a good option I would suggest. There is a separate place for families to dine in as well. Reasonable prices and good service as well.

Food is good a little too crowded

Incredible food, unbelievable portions, sweet prices. I had the rice and chicken, I don't think I'll eat again for two days. Try it, you'll like it.

First time experiencing the East African cuisine. The food was delicious. Quantity was wholesome.

NBP16 Cotham Somali Lunch. Thank you Ahmed for all your help, such an amazing service. My colleagues loved every bit of it and even tried it with banana. Definitely be back with more work colleagues.

Huge portions for everything, if want to top up rice, they will do it for free(which no one ask as portion is already huge) simply cooked meat which is very tender

The food is amazing! The rice is so fragrant and nicely seasoned. The portion is so big, we could have shared one meal between the two of us. Definitely a hidden gem. 😊

Nice food but lacks customer service.

Beef sukar chicken sukar is lovely with steamed vegetables. And also the soup is lovely. Oh and the salmon fish was so nice to.

Excellent and generous portions of Somali home cooked food. Thoroughly recommend . All people are welcome!

Good quality food 👌and great service 👌

Deliciously fragrant rice and meat, lovely soup starter. Feels like a great home-cooked meal - and I mean that as the highest compliment. We were made to feel welcome and we will certainly be back. Thank you!

Amazing food! Wasn't sure what to order so they suggested a mixture of things and it was perfect. Huge amount of food with great flavours and friendly staff and the price was unbelievably good.

The fond is amazing, taste like home made 😋

Great experience! Loved the food.

Visited twice in a row, great food at a great price. Value for money and clean food. Thank you.

My friend took me to this spot. That lamb was the best I've had in a while. Succulent! I'm definitely going back soon.

Good food, friendly people, get down there as soo as you can. Seriously it’s amazing

Very generous, one of the best value for money in Bristol. If you havnt tried Somali, probably best in Bristol Somali food, despite nationality these people will look after you. It also has a family area with mobile dividers for privacy.

Awesome restaurant you can even get a coffee and tea 🍵

Great food, cooked with love I suppose. Will be going bad. Anyone who hasn't been there should go and experience.

They starting good then they fall off the services part however it been during the covied19

Good Halal food Somalian traditional style of home cooking.

The food is perfect all the time mashallah keep it up hidden gem but defoo worth every penny.

Wow this food is amazing! Was too hungry to take photos but I will next time! Also the juice is spot on 👌

Nice food high standard service i strongly recommended 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Test good cheap clean I love this place

Wow one of the best Somali restaurants hands down, I've have been to many in London and they dont taste as good as this restaurant in bristol. If you read this you should put in your satnav and go. Amazing price and excellent customer service .

great food and quick service- highly recommended

That is big portion and taste better

We went here Saturday last week for lunch. We really enjoyed laid back ambience, great amount of food...I never taste such a succulent roast lamb before, literally the meat was melting in my mouth yummm. We were so full when we finished, no one needed supper anymore in the evening 😁😁
