Amazing spectacular find! A delicious food tour of Yemeni cuisine. Everything we ordered was superbly cooked and beautifully presented. Two incredible stews, one vegetable and one shredded chicken were sizzling in beautiful cast iron crocks, the salad was bright and fresh, the mint and lime drinks were perfect, the coffee husk drink was unique and perfectly balanced, the desserts a delightful cultural journey of crisp, sweet, and soft. We stumbled across this place while driving from DC to Richmond and we’re definitely going to drive back for this food. The attentive staff was generous with their time and knowledge, and offered cultural connections about the food, the ingredients, and the music, which all set a perfect tone for a special evening. So much gratitude that there are places and people like this.

A real review **

Pros: the food is seasoned well, not bland at all

Cons: you will wait forever til it makes you question if they forgot about you and your food. We sat down and just wait and waited no one came to give us water or anything, until we asked. We had to ask them to take our order. We order baba ganoush with bread,as an appetizer and it never until we asked about and the only waiter had no idea what we were talking about. It finally came and it was very cold and the bread was hard to even pull apart. We ordered the mix grill platter which was seasoned well it came with grill chicken, lamb ( which was so hard to chew, it was well, well well done) and shrimp with rice and sides of dips but it was barely warm, and lamb hattash, which was barely warm. Since we waited over an hr and half for food with 2 toddlers cranky to eat we didn’t say anything. The service is very very slow it’s basically non existent. We didn’t have any plates to eat off of, no extra water, etc.
Save yourself the frustration of being hungry and cranky from being hungry. Go where you will get served.

The place was empty, one or two tables at most. No music or tvs playing. It was very quiet.
The experience is not worth coming here.

A hidden gem in Fredericksburg! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. It was our first time dining here, and they went above and beyond to guide us through the menu and help us choose the best dishes.

The food was absolutely delicious — full of flavor, fresh, and perfectly cooked. You can tell they put a lot of care into everything they serve. The portions were generous, and the flavors were unlike anything we’ve had in the area.

But what really stood out was the hospitality. The staff were so kind, patient, and knowledgeable. Their warm service truly made the experience special.
If you're looking to try something new or just want a great meal with even better service, Marib is a must-visit.

The food was delicious and our server was so helpful, making recommendations to help us find meals that fit our preferences when we didn't understand some of the names. I highly recommend. We will be returning soon!

Excellent Yemeni food! I wish we had tried this sooner. My chicken kabob was well seasoned and moist. My family enjoyed their beef stews and lamb kofta. The baba ganoush was so flavorful and delicious! They were very generous with the fresh bread as well. Our server was so kind and attentive. We will definitely be back soon and will probably order take-out often.

Enjoyed my time here at Marib while waiting for our dog to finish his groom session at Petsmart. We had our choice of seating and we ate lentil soup, chicken hummus, mandi chicken, and shai. Great service and glad we came.
