“If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I absolutely would.

I first found this restaurant about a year ago when my boyfriend and I happened to pass by and decided to give it a try. I still remember the first time they brought out the soup with chopped onions on the side. I was honestly shocked by how good it was. That soup immediately became one of those flavors I knew I would never forget.

I loved the food so much that I came back again with a friend, and then came back a third time before I eventually left Cleveland.

I’ve been living away from Cleveland for more than a year, and recently I drove back from Chicago because I’ll be staying here for the next two months. When I thought about where I wanted to eat first, this restaurant was immediately at the top of my list. I literally drove about 40 minutes just to come here.

At first I was a little confused because the restaurant has a different name now. I only found it again because I had previously shared the address with my friend. When I walked inside and saw the restaurant, I immediately recognized it and thought, “YES, this is the place!”

And somehow, after all this time, the food is STILL just as amazing as I remembered.

The lamb and rice are incredible. The fish is something I order almost every single time. And the HUGE fresh bread is unbelievably good — seriously, you HAVE to eat it right after it comes out while it’s still hot and fresh. It is absolutely amazing.

And then there is the soup. I genuinely think I will remember that soup for the rest of my life. I have tried other Yemeni restaurants while I was away, but nothing has ever tasted quite as good as this place.

Because I lived far away for so long, I couldn’t come here often, but I never forgot the flavor. I would actually think about this food from time to time while I was gone.

Finding this restaurant again after more than a year honestly made me so happy. Same owner, same incredible food, and still one of my absolute favorite restaurants in Cleveland.

100000/10. Completely worth the 40-minute drive, and I will definitely be coming back again while I’m here. ❤“

“Excellent breakfast! Good services and pleasant atmosphere! Very competitive prices! Would recommend!“

“Great food, great servers, easy parking and highway access. I hear the weekly Thursday night jam night is pretty good too?“

“I went twice here for dinner one on a Friday and one time for dinner the next day! while visiting Cleveland from Kent first time I went I got burger and tots second time was salmon dinner and for both times I got the server Jordan she did an amazing job and since I work at a restaurant myself it was neat talking and exchanging experiences of what’s it’s like working in the restaurants and I think when you meet other restaurant workers you can relate to one another. The food was great server did an outstanding job. The second time when the hostess’s was going to seat me I saw Jordan as they were going to seat me and requested her and she was like ya I can take you cause I rather have a server who I know does a good job at there job and who has a good personality and that’s what makes a restaurant and a great server I definitely recommend this restaurant!“

“Definitely my go to place when I’m in the area. Good always consistently good and packs amazing flavor!“

“excellent service and food. Good value. Love the chicken livers and only place I can find them. Cooked great and great service“

“I love the food. They have some of the best biscuits in the business, and of course we ordered 4 biscuits and only 1 comes in the box, smh. Of course the kids like the biscuits and they split the one biscuit. I guess it was my fault for not checking the box. At least the kids were happy.“

“I was pleasantly surprised to pull up to Mr chicken and was greeted by a very bright voice asking”how can I make your day better” the voice was of a worker Brenda!!! She was amazing she handled my order and all the other drive thru orders with ease! I am always reluctant to come to this Mr chicken after bad experiences in the past but after experiencing Brenda and her wonderful customer service I will be visiting again, and also all my food was fresh“

“I thought we would have to wait. Noticed car park wasn't full which was a plus guess people where tired from the holiday activities. We got a table quickly & our server Abigail very attentive & friendly & when i mentioned a health issue she got me some h2o which helped immensely. Good vibes everyone in good spirits ❤“

“The service was slower than molasses in winter in Alaska.“
