How We Became Popular Among Others ?

Hufan Restaurant & Cafe was established in 1961 by Abdi Mohamed Ahmed, the family patriarch, in Galkayo, Somalia. From the start, Abdi Mohamed’s vision was to serve exceptional and authentic Somali food. His dedication and passion inspired his sons, who began their journey by washing dishes, bussing tables, and learning the art of cooking directly from him.
In 2000, the family opened their first U.S. location in Minneapolis, Minnesota, continuing the legacy of great food and hard work. Today, the passion and vision initiated by Abdi Mohamed live on through his sons, who offer the delicious and heartwarming cuisine that Hufan is known for.
