Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often single out the Haneeth Lamb Mandi, described as slow-cooked and tender, with rice that tasted authentic. Close behind are the huge flatbread and ratib bread, which several describe as tasty and good for dipping into the Fattah chicken gravy or the lamb. Hummus, Sanunah chicken, Kebab Sanaani and Fahsa also draw praise, along with a lemon and mint juice called fresh. Diners describe friendly, welcoming staff, sizeable portions and food that tastes authentic, and some who had never tried Yemeni cuisine came away pleased. The criticism is specific. One longtime customer found the lamb mandi and Royal Masoob noticeably declined from earlier visits, and another said the restaurant seemed understaffed, with a long wait, missing orders, cutlery that had to be requested and food that arrived cold. That reviewer found the dishes other than bread and hummus just OK. The most memorable moments are a free dessert from the owner and a birthday surprise where the restaurant catered for items not on the menu.

    “I am writing to express my disappointment with the lamb mandi and Royal Masoob I ordered recently. While I have enjoyed your dishes in the past and the quality was excellent a few months ago, I found that the meal I received this time was far below the standard I had previously experienced. The taste and overall quality have noticeably declined, and I am not satisfied with what was served. I have been a loyal customer, and I would appreciate it if you could look into this matter and ensure that the quality of your food is restored to its previous level. I would be grateful for your prompt attention to this concern.”

    “Visited Yemen Mandi over the weekend with a friend who recommended it, and I’m glad I listened. The staff were very welcoming from the moment we arrived and showed us straight to our table. The restaurant is clean, spacious, and nicely decorated, which made for a really comfortable dining experience. The food was fantastic — the bread was fresh and tasty, the rice dish was full of flavour, and the lamb was tender and perfect for dipping with the bread. Great atmosphere, friendly service, and the prices were very fair for the quality and portion sizes. Everything is also halal, which is a big plus. Definitely recommend giving this place a try — I’ll be coming back!”

    “Very relaxed restaurant for an alternative and tasty lunch with Yemeni inspired cuisine. Our meals were spicy without being hot, and fragrant. Service came with a giant flatbread and was swift enough. The rice was really tasty.”
