Reviews
Above all I loved the meat over hummus dish with this fresh crispy yet soft massive piece of naan bread they give. The hummus was flavorful and yet it still felt filling and light compared to the heavier haneeth dish that’ll put you in a food coma!
Definitely recommend this place for the food quality and the sweet Yemeni hospitality.
Adani chai 4/5.,,, black tea with cardamom and mint is good too.
Yemini rice is just okay, I believe Indian biryani is far superior!
Service is good here. For the high prices they charge surprise to see plastic plates and plastic utensils
Fasha(spelling) is also one item our waiter recommended. Stew with meat, comes with huge bread.
I went back another day for chicken. The flatbread is tasty, too.
The drinks were a perfect start-a yogurt-based drink (something start with S?) that was tangy and salty and super cooling. Then half way through we added mint lemonade, that was bright and refreshing to counterbalance the rich dishes.
Food:
lamb zurbian—deeply spiced and fall-apart tender lamb, paired beautifully with fluffy, flavorful rice. I loved the crispy fried onions/shallots in there. It is rich without being super oily.
The liver was a surprise favorite—surprising the lightest dish of the day due to tomato content. They are lamb livers perfectly cooked and packed with flavor.
Their flatbread, omg, three times the size of my face. Nicely charred outside, pillowy soft inside, fluffy and stretchy. It has texture and flavors of a pita on the outside and soda biscuits in the middle.
And the sauces—every single one added a bold, vibrant kick that elevated the dishes even more.
Dessert:
Please don’t skip dessert, or you can eat it as an entree. They are warm, comforting, and just the right amount of sweetness and texture.
Massoub
Banana-bread based topped with cream and nuts and corn flakes. Mushy (good kind) at bottom. Great if you are into banana with cream.
Areeka
Date-bread based topped with cream and nut and corn flakes. More dense at the bottom than Massoub. Loved the dates. We took home the leftovers and actually ordered one more to go.
To top it off, the service was superb—warm, welcoming, and attentive. Can’t wait to come back.
