    Default Sanaa or Boma

    Help me decide! Husband wants Boma because he is a fan of buffets and wants to be able to try different foods. I like the look of Sanaa and the animal views. If you had to pick one which would you choose and why?

    Sanaa hands down. We do like Boma but for us the selection of food as well as the view from Sanaa won us over. Sanaa is more of an Indian flavour with curries, samosas and other south Asian type dishes.

    While we do enjoy the food at Boma we tend to find Boma very busy, especially at the mac and cheese and chicken strip lines. I don't understand why one would pay for Boma to get food that you can get at any quick service location.

    There are so many exotic dishes to try out as well as an excellent carvery at Boma.

    Honestly, I love them both. Boma, for the variety of delicious food, Sanaa for both the atmosphere and good food.

    If he's into variety, he should know that there are a few samplers on the menu, both appetizer and entree, dishes where you can try more than one thing at once at Sanaa. This could be your best of both worlds option. For entrees, I love the "Slow-cooked in gravy" options in which you choose to try two of six possibilities with rice.

    But really, you can't go wrong with either choice. There's not much by way of atmosphere at Boma, but so many good things to try. If you have been to Boma, I would go with the new and try Sanaa. If you haven't been to either, it's a really tough choice but I would probably start with Boma.

    Love them both, but Sanaa is a better overall experience. And Boma is more expen$ive. I love the salad sampler at Sanaa and often order it as my entree. And I prefer the view at Sanaa. One note - if you don't get a window table, please don't go stand next to window tables where others are seated to check out the view! I've had strangers practically sit at my table in order to see out the window. Just go to the public viewing area after dinner if you want to see animals.

    We have been to Boma's twice. Found it crowded and rushed. We went to Sanna's once and found it less crazy. It's much smaller. I liked the food better at Sanaa's too.

    Two or our favorite places to dine - can't go wrong with either. If you decide to do Sanaa for the view of the animals, make sure you are sitting down to eat during the daylight hours - it's a much better experience! Enjoy!

    I love them both, but I LOVE the atmosphere at Sanaa. Its pretty magical, compared to the relative chaos at Boma. But you can't go wrong with either.
