I recently visited Shibam Restaurant and was truly impressed by the quality of food, warm hospitality, and inviting atmosphere. I tried the Lamb Fahsa with bread and Lamb Haneeth, and both dishes were absolutely delicious, tender, and full of authentic flavor. The staff were extremely respectful, friendly, and attentive, making the whole dining experience even more enjoyable. The restaurant has a clean, cozy ambiance that perfectly complements the traditional Yemeni dishes.
Highly...

New to Yemeni food, and I’ve been missing out my whole life! Their seasoning is on point, and the meat is always so tender. The chef is talented and never disappoints. Ordering is easy, and the food comes out pretty fast. from since I first had it, I never go a week without ordering from them.

I love this place. It’s a great place to take the family and friends and enjoy the outdoor dining area. The food is amazing. I love their pistachio Frappuccino, Haleem and the bun kababs are amazing. The staff is awesome and always smiling ☺️
