Very culturally specific. A male started to take my order. A group of males came in and he began talking to them and I was ignored until a nother server (woman) took my order. It was definitely a cultural thing. However, the rest of the service was great and the food was amazing.

The food is okay. Some things are very sweet, like beans. They are very sweet, but I advise you to change the location of the restaurant, because the street you are on is not suitable for the Islamic nation, because it is a rude street and a place where we neglect myself. I am prepared to visit you again to this place because it gives chills to the body. We ask God for guidance for all.

The food was amazing. Street parking can be a bit of a struggle. The staff were nice when asked for help and they were quick.

I was excited to try SHEBA, given the appealing photos of Yemeni dishes on the menu. Unfortunately, the experience fell short. The pictures didn’t match what was served—portions were smaller, and the presentation was underwhelming. As for the flavor, it was just okay, nothing to rave about. The spices that are usually the hallmark of Yemeni cuisine didn’t quite hit the mark, leaving the dishes tasting somewhat bland. Overall, it wasn’t terrible, but I expected a lot more. Not sure if I’d rush back. The following are comparative pictures of what we were served versus what was on the menu.

Good and delicious food I am try first time good taste and friendly Staff Cashier is good behavior
We had a great time at Sheba Restaurant in Oakland! The staff were warm and welcoming, and they even treated us to a complimentary soup dish, which was a nice surprise to start our meal.
We ordered a variety of dishes, and each one was delicious. The Lamb Haneeth was tender and full of flavor, while the Red Snapper Fish was fresh and perfectly seasoned. The Yemeni Bread was soft and a great complement to the meal. I also tried the Liver Sub—though it was a bit too heavy for my taste, I can see how others would really enjoy it.
The prices were reasonable for the quality, and the overall dining experience was lovely. If you’re looking for flavorful and authentic food in the Oakland area, Sheba Restaurant is definitely worth a visit!

I recently visited this restaurant, and it was my first time trying Yemeni food—and I absolutely loved it! The flavors were so rich and unique, every dish felt like a delightful new experience. I especially enjoyed how each plate was full of bold spices and comforting textures. To top it off, the service was fantastic. Abraham, our server, was incredibly attentive, offering great recommendations and making sure we had everything we needed. If you’re looking to explore Yemeni cuisine, this restaurant is a must visit!
