Yemeni Cuisine Restaurant & Cafe المطعم اليمني

Got the Mandi lamb and the Chicken Agda. First thing that came out was this wonderful broth soup. Not sure what was in it, but it was delicious. The serving sizes were huge. The chicken Agda came with 2 very large pieces of bread. The lamb was fall off the bone tender. Definitely would return. Next time I'll save room for dessert.

Food was normal. But very expensive few peices of neat and some rice for 30$.really not worth it. I paid 8$ for yamani salad they brought me tomato cucs and lettuce plain with no salt or sauce. The salsa tasted old and not spicy at all.bread seemed they just warm it in the oven was not fresh. The service took too long. And there were no napkins ir silverware. The server dropped the food and disappeared. Also there were family with very noisy kids the atmosphere was not peaceful. I regret the experience. I paid 43$ for one person i could get better food better service

I tried Lamb Mandi 4 times in one Month at this place, every time it tastes different.
1st time it is so delicious and they gave fluffy rice, fried onions and green curry to mix with Mandi.
2nd time lamb taste same but they gave different rice which is dry and tasteless and NO fried onions and red curry to mix which is tasteless as well
3rd time lamb is good but NO fried onions and green curry
4th time ie today, they added some vegetable fry on top of Mandi which taste so bad and stale.

Since I liked it first time Im traveling 20 Miles every time to get Lamb Mandi but they are disappointing everytime.
Biggest question is - Why don’t maintain consistency???

Wonderful food. We had the lamb haneed and mandi chicken and both were excellent. We had the salad side which was made with very fresh ingredients and the rice with our entrees was also very good. Portions were very generous making great leftovers for us at home.

Today I was with my family at the restaurant for lunch. Unfortunately, it was a bad experience. The service was very poor. There are no tissues on the table or small plates to serve. The food is very salty and the meat is very little compared to the bill I ordered Hanid meat, they gave me Haneed's bones And the thing that surprised me is that they do not serve water like most restaurants, unfortunately, it was a bad experience because I went to many Yemeni restaurants that I loved, but this restaurant unfortunately does not represent Yemeni food and the treatment is poor As for the price, it's hell and I don't advise families to visit this place

Delicious food.

I want to like this place but this is not the first time we brought home a whole charcoal chicken that was more char than chicken. I could not eat it. My husband ate it with a lot of sauce and the rest went in the trash (which is where it should have gone when the cook realized they burned this chicken). It was barely edible and very dry from being severely overcooked. If you burn your food, please stop giving it to paying customers. If this restaurant was not so close to home, I would never frequent here. This is at least the third time we have had burned chicken. No more for me. I’m thoroughly disappointed. Thanks.

Absolutely amazing experience at this Yemeni restaurant! The food is authentic, rich in flavor, and cooked with so much heart. The lamb haneeth was fall-off-the-bone tender, perfectly seasoned, and served with fragrant basmati rice. The fahsa was bubbling hot and packed with flavor.
Grilled fish is another of my favorite dishes there.

Service can be better but they do their best to serve everyone. Owner needs to hire more servers as their business is growing.

Highly recommended for anyone wanting a real taste of Yemen!
