I don't hear much about Sanaa so would love to hear about it from those who have been. Staying at Kidani so an onsite restaurant would be perfect, and I'm not certain I can talk our group into Boma.
 
We love Sanaa! DH and I think it's one of the best meals we've ever had at WDW.

The naan sampler is delicious. The chicken curry and the short ribs are really good. The service has always been efficient and very helpful and willing to explain everything on the menu as well as make great recommendations.

A big thumbs up from our family!
 
DH and I also love Sanaa. The Naan bread sampler is to die for. We get it everytime we are there. We have also introduced Sanaa to friends and they all loved it.

Also, if you have a pool day. Sanaa was providing the "Private Dining" at the Kidani Village Pool when we were there in September. For a small fee they will bring your lunch (limited menu) pool side in a Bento box. We tried it one day and enjoyed it very much and did it a 2nd day during our stay.

All in all, well worth the try.
 
Sanaa is hands down one of the top TS restaurants on property. It is better than most 1 credit restaurants and some Signatures, IMO. As others have said the bread service is a great (and filling) way to start your meal. While it says it serves 2, I can't see how it wouldn't be enough for 4. While Boma is really good, for a buffet, we personally like Sanaa better. Good food, good service and a nice atmosphere.
 

We are another Sanaa fan group; we've dined in the restaurant twice and did in-room dining from there in our Grand Villa a few weeks ago.

The bread service is very filling so we don't do it anymore unless we have at least 4 people; 6 of us shared 1 portion this last time and that was perfect for us. The sustainable fish was very good when I had that and I also enjoyed the short ribs and the chicken w/red curry (my husband and I split this entree and still had leftovers).
 
Never been, but it looks like a great restaurant, especially with the views and African-Indian food!

The other day, though, in preparing for ADRs, (which Sanaa was going to be included in) I tried naan bread and hummus (tried once before) and made chutneys and samosas to make sure that I would like them. Even though I'm a vegetarian, I actually didn't care for them, even though I love Indian food with curry, etc. A few months back, I also made the quinoa porridge (which looked great) from Boma breakfast's menu, but when I made it, yuck!

A good tip is to try the food before you go. (Although you'll be fine because most of the foods in Disney are Americanized to fit our tastes.) :)
