Had their beef sambosa, lamb broth & mandi lamb. They were all quite tasty & perfectly seasoned. The lamb was fall off the bone tender, & juicy just like the other reviews have mentioned. It also paired well with the broth (which was mildly gamey so if you're not into that then maybe skip the broth all together 😆) I'd love to come back & try their other dishes, & have their tea again

Loved this place! It was my first time trying Yemeni food, & everything was super tasty & authentic. The Yemeni coffee was amazing too! The atmosphere is really warm & cozy ❤? perfect for a dinner with someone special or a nice family meal. Definitely a spot I'll come back to!
The overall food was good but I have some complaints regarding the portion sizes. We got one lamb dish & one chicken & I believe the quantity of the meat was too little for the price. They gave us quite a bit of rice which was nice but it felt like they wanted us to fill up on that instead of striking a balance between the meat & rice.
I gave 4 stars because the food was tasty & service was great but still disappointed with the portions.

I had the delicious lamb fahsa with khobs bread & the rice they served. A very unique kind of food & experience. The owner was also gracious enough to treat us to some Fata Bilmoze & chai adani which were both unreal & very tasty. Highly recommend!!
Great quality homemade style food! The chicken was super tender & so tasty. I would say I've had better tea & kunefe elsewhere but this was still pretty good. The waitress was really nice & gave great recommendations. We ordered a lot of food & found the bill to be very reasonable for what we got. It's a great place to go as a small group if you want to try different kind of cuisine since there aren't many yemeni restaurants in the city.
Good food in a simple restaurant - food was tasty & the service was very good. Maybe a little expensive for what it was but not excessively so. Nice atmosphere too Would go back
Lovely Yémeny experience. The food is very tasty. You will taste lamp meat as if you never tasted it before 😋. I recommend the Mazbi Dish. The staff is very friendly & the place is warm & cozy.

We came to the restaurant as a large group of 14. The service was fantastic & super friendly. Our orders were taken efficiently while being mindful of how the bills were being split up. The appetizers were good, the soup broth was tasty. The main dishes were amazing. Very tasty & an adequate amount. The lamb was super tender & truly fall of the bone. We tried the desserts & they were different but still amazing. Overall, I really enjoyed the food & the friendliness was next level.
It looked like a family ran restaurant with pretty good food but the service quality needs to improve since twice they did not have what we asked for which took then 15 mins to inform us & we had no choice but to change our order. In all it a casual looking with friendly staff & tasty food at affordable rates.
