Quality food & authentic flavors. Highly recommend Mazbi Restaurant. The staff is very friendly & accommodating. We had the beef dish & it was divine, the rice & bread were delicious.
Really loved the flavor of the Mazbi Lamb it was my favorite. The Mandi chicken was very tender & fell off of the bone. The rice was super flavorful & overall everything was perfect for lunch.

A modest Middle Eastern restaurant, specialized in Yemeni cuisine. We had chicken & lamb mazbi: the lams was good, but the two very thin slices of meat. The chicken was almost burnt & was not good at all. The service & atmosphere are both very basic. The quality /price ratio is high for what you get as food & service : $70 (including tip) was too high actually for what we had. Overall experience: it was just "OK" & nothing special & we won't go back again
I had an amazing experience. The vibes are great & the food too. Super delicious. We tried the mazbi chicken & mazbi lamb; both were so good. The owners are welcoming & super friendly. Must visit!
I appreciated the tenderness of the lamb, but overall, this experience was disappointing. The bread served was not the right type for Fahsa, & providing only a small portion for the entire dish was inappropriate. The rice was overly spiced, overwhelming the flavor, & the prices were far too high for the quality offered. The presentation & the dishware were quite underwhelming. I was excited to find a Yemeni restaurant in Montreal, but I left wishing I hadn't visited. That said, the service was friendly.
The food is excellent, the service friendly & informative, the decoration kitsch adding to the authenticity of the place. Great place, would definitely recommend!
Delicious food, polite service, we found exactly what we were looking for. Place was clean , I recommend the lamb broth before meal & the chai tea with milk after.
Plats délicieux & savoureux de la cuisine Yamani Dommage on a pas trouvé le plat original maazbi grillé Les places à l'intérieur sont un peu sombre Mais prix/ qualité très raisonnable
Very relax & cozy atmosphere. Music in the background fits right with the yemeni culture. The food was generous with excellent service. For around 20 $ to 25 $ I can say that I ate like a king. I highly recommend!
