Hands down the best Middle East/Yemeni food we’ve had in Philly! We visited their second location, and it’s beautiful—very spacious, clean, and comfortable. The staff were incredibly welcoming, and the service was fast without making us feel rushed. We ordered the mixed grill platter, mandi, haneeth (lamb) with rice, the mixed appetizer platter, lamb liver, chicken fajita, and fahsa, which is one of my favorite traditional Yemeni dishes. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. We ended the meal with Adani chai, and it was the perfect finish. This wasn’t our first visit, and it definitely won’t be our last. A nice touch was the chef coming to our table to greet us and make sure everything tasted good. That level of hospitality really made the experience even better. Highly recommend!
