    Delicious food and huge portions. The lamb is always so delicious and tender. I always get the kabsa, can't go wrong! :)

    This place is hands down the best! I'm so upset the Staten Island location is not open, but I heard it will be open in the next two weeks! Yay! We came here on a Thursday night for their signature dishes. They serve a delicious lamb broth and salad with warm naan (and they keep serving naan). The service is amazing and they quickly try to get you seated. The meat (lamb/chicken is deliciously tender and juicy. Their rice is expertly seasoned with homey spices. This restaurant has tea in the back that is self serve (with evaporated milk). The ambience is laid back with a family style flair. The only negative is that parking is tough! We are usually driving for a while before we find a spot, however it's Brooklyn and that's to be expected. As we inquired about the Staten Island location we were offered desserts on the house to go! Can't wait for them to open the Staten Island location again! Please give this wonderful place a try!

    Self seat. There were many empty seats. Waiter brought the menu, had a hard time waving them down to order. There is tea + evaporated milk towards the back of the restaurant which is self serve. Food was good. The lamb was very tender. We got a big piece of naan and dips.

    We are in from out of town. Our group could not get enough of literally everything we tried. They serve complimentary tea that is simply delicious. I'm a coffee drinker and couldn't get enough. The lamb soup was savory and hit the spot. I can't remember the last time I was at a restaurant and someone I was with asked for seconds of a soup, but they did here. The menu was in English and Arabic which was nice. We had a roasted and pulled lamb dish served with some sauced jasmine rice, as well as a chicken dish that was served in a clay pot. It came with onions and peppers mixed up and served in a sauce that was simmering when it came out. The dish thickened up as we ate the other dish. It was... simply incredible. Chicken Kafta I think? They gave us some flatbread and a salad that was served with something like a spicy salsa that we really enjoyed. For the dessert, they served this bread that was chopped up and mixed with honey and butter. The chicken dishes were $20 and the lamb dishes were $32. 2 plates and 4 bowls of soup fed our group of 5; the entrees are quite large. Everything was delicious. The staff was incredibly kind and very proud of their culture, showing off the decor in their restaurant depicting the capital of Yemen. We were very thankful to eat there! Edit: Kabsa Lamb and Fahta chicken.
