An absolute hidden gem! The food here is incredibly authentic and flavorful—the lamb Haneeth was so tender it fell off the bone, and the Fahsa arrived bubbling in a hot clay pot. The warm, fresh bread is unmatched and the fresh juices is so refreshing. It feels like a cozy, home-cooked meal straight from Yemen. Highly recommend! Thank you solaiman
Wow absolutely delicious!! Will definitely come back! :)
First time here, staff was extremely kind and eager to help out :) we loved all the dishes but recommend the salta and the rashoosh flatbread. Don’t miss the ginger tea, fresh Yemeni chai made to order. Also the seating arrangement is so awesome and comfortable. Felt like a true uncle eating and enjoying the food!
