I got take out, a chicken shwarma sandwich, a cup of lamb soup, and an order of baklava. The staff was very friendly. The portion sizes and quality of food I recieved for the price was an amazing value. I would absolutely recommend this place for a good, affordable, and filling meal.

Went last night for the first time. Service was excellent, very friendly and accommodating - the food was good as well as the portions . Could be more clean. But its a great spot for a late night meal if you are in the neighborhood

If you’re looking for authentic Yemeni food in Hamtramck, Michigan, this is one of the best places you can visit. The food is full of authentic flavor, and every dish we tried was outstanding. Their qalabah is a must-try, and I also loved that they serve a variety of traditional fresh breads to complement the meal.

We visited for both breakfast and dinner, and everything was exceptional. The quality, taste, and generous portions exceeded our expectations....
