It was our first time trying Yemenite food. We got the combination (chicken and lamb) Mandi for 2 people, it was absolutely amazing! The chicken especially was top notch, the basmati rice was delicious, onion crisps and yellow raisins go hand in hand with the spices, really great and well balanced food overall. A refreshing salad was also included along with the meal.
🌶️ It might be too spicy if you're not used to spicy food at all, but for us the spice level was pretty mild, I'd say a 3/5 when using the green sauce they provide and 2/5 otherwise.🔥
We were surprised by how fast the food was done as well... Honestly, it probably beats a lot of fast food locations on time between ordering and being served, maybe about 5 to 7 minutes for us. The serving size was also very generous, we both eat more than most and we left feeling stuffed.
The staff was very nice and kind. It seems that English is not their primary language, but we had no major communication issues.
I would highly recommend trying this place out, at least once! We didn't take any more pictures because we devoured the food a bit too fast for pictures. We'll be coming back for sure to try the wraps in the next few days!
Update: the wraps are a great size, extremely flavorful, and very well priced. This has been the best restaurant we've been to during our trip to Canada, I cannot recommend...
Read moreI recently had the pleasure of dining at Hadhramout Restaurant, and I must say, it was a delightful experience. As a fan of Yemeni cuisine, I was excited to try their lamb and rice dish, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint.
The lamb was incredibly tender, falling off the bone with each bite. The flavors were rich and authentic, showcasing the skill and care put into each dish. The rice was perfectly cooked, fluffy and flavorful, making it the perfect complement to the savory lamb.
The ambiance of the restaurant was warm and inviting, and the staff were friendly and attentive. It's clear that the team at Hadhramout takes pride in their food and service, creating a memorable dining experience.
If you're a fan of Yemeni cuisine or simply looking for a delicious meal in Ottawa, I highly recommend Hadhramout Restaurant. Their lamb and rice dish is truly to die for, and I can't wait to return to try more...
Read moreWe stumbled upon this place a couple days ago and decided to try it. The lady who owned the place was very friendly and inviting. We went back today. The staff member who served us was also very friendly, helpful and nice. This adds to the overall experience. We ordered the Lamb Mandi.
What we received was two perfectly cooked and spiced delicious lamb shanks. They were very large and came with a large container of delicious rice with spices and caramelized onions. On the side was a good sized fresh salad with a great dressing.
The flavours were wonderful. It was lamb from a fine restaurant - but eaten at home.
The cost for both of us was a staggeringly low $42 for what we received in both quality and quantity.
I have never eaten Yemeni food before but I will go back to this wonderful restaurant.
I recommend this place to anyone who wants great value and...
