This was our first time trying Yemeni cuisine, but the staff were extremely friendly, welcoming, and helpful with explaining dishes, and they even offered us free dessert samples! The food is extremely high quality, and the atmosphere was very pleasant. I got the Fish (tilapia) Qulaba, and the tilapia was extremely fresh and flaky, and the stew was very flavorful. The real truly standout dish however was the Fatah (Honey and Dates) dessert. It was unlike any other dessert I have...

Taste isn’t like before. And its become way too expensive. To top it all, they add 18% service charge even for just a party of two! And earlier they used to give two sauces per plate of kabsa, now its become just one. And if u order extra, they dont even tell u that it’llcbe an extra $2 for each!
Will not return!
Basically, one plate of kabsa, one plate of fried mutton, fries n one can of coke cost us $80!!! Laughable.
