outdated place for Yemeni food
Old tables. Nothing charming, BUT the food was a surprise good. Full of flavors. My only criticism for the kitchen chef, minimize oil consumption in cooking please.

Hospitable dining experience with generous portions👌🏻Truly delicious authentic Yamani dishes. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive. ( Ebrahim was very nice) Highly recommended for everyone craving tasty food💯

I called this place an order, and the first guy who answered said they were closed—even though we called 40 minutes before their listed closing time. After some back and forth, they finally took my order for pickup. As for the food, it was just okay. It kind of felt like they gave us the “last order of the day” vibe, so maybe that affected the quality. I’ll give them one more try and see if it was just an off day.
