Yemeni Restaurant - New York NYC

Enjoyed a nice dinner with friends here. We sat in a booth and ordered from the “kitchen menu,” which is slightly different than the menu board at the counter. The space was very bright and had a comfortable vibe. I was a little put off by the plastic table covers, though, which looked cheap and covered up the marble tables.

Staff were very friendly, though they could have been a bit more attentive and more proactive about removing empty plates.

Mint lemonade was delicious. They didn’t offer tap water which is odd for a sit down place. We had water bottles with us so it was fine, but I would be annoyed to have to purchase a bottle of water for a dinner.

We ordered a few different meat and rice dishes and the grilled fish. The grilled fish took much longer than the other dishes to come out, but it was worth the wait. Would order again. The best other dish was the grilled chicken over rice. The giant flatbread was also great. We had a couple of desserts which were tasty too.

Wish they would invest in more real plates/metal cutlery instead of relying on plastic.

Overall, we had a good time and will definitely be back!
