Al-aseel Yemeni Restaurant Reviews

The Lamb Haneeth (lamb with bones and a combination of rice and potatoes) is the best thing on the menu. The Lamb is so tender that it falls right off the bones. You also get salad, soup and tea on the house. The tea is placed in a container right near the entrance and you have to get it yourself. They were closed for quite some time and opened under a new banner, possibly a change in ownership, so call ahead before going.

Excellent food! Everything you order comes with soup and a shared Salad. It was amazing unfortunately I didn't take any pictures but literally everything on the menu is amazing. Very nice homey feel while your eating as if it is made with love. Meat is super tender and full of flavor. People are very nice. Definitely going back. They also have really good free tea after you eat.

Excellent, authentic Yemeni cuisine. We went for lunch (in Yemen, the traditional main meal of the day), and had ful medames, salta, and grilled whole fish. All were delicious, reminding me of my time in Yemen years ago. Excellent service and reasonable prices. Be sure to check out the beautiful photos of Yemen on the walls. A fun place to go when you are in the mood to try something different.
