Perfectly cooked delicious food.
It might not be noticeable and it lies in a weird neighborhood with too many homeless and junkies around, but the owner made sure no one of them entered and definitely very delicious well cooked food.
I'd definitely love to eat their again

This is that type of 10/10 hole in the wall restaurant. It’s not in the best neighborhood, but the quality of the food is much better than most established middle eastern restaurants, and you can tell the food is made with love. Plus, Yemeni cuisine is also super unique compare to other middle eastern food! I encourage everybody to give it a try!

The food is absolutely incredible. The service is also excellent and kind. I was looking for Yemeni food in the Bay Area and this is top-of-the-line. There’s a warm relaxing feeling when you’re eating your meal here.

The food here is delicious, like home cooked. The service is amazing! Uber eats messed up my order, so the owner delivered the correct food to me across town. My favorites are half chicken, which is thigh and leg, and hummus. The masoob is incredible. The portions are large for the price.

What a beautiful whole in the wall kind of spot in downtown San Francisco. We ordered roasted lamb, chicken and lamb kabsa. They were all delicious. Would definitely love to come back.

This place is such a hidden gem and deserves more recognition!
The roasted lamb dish is a MUST TRY. Every piece was succulent and flavorful, and I loved that it came with pita bread, a spicy sauce, rice, salad, and a veggie stew. I will for sure return to try the lamb soup!

Went here last night before the show at the Warfield. Ordered the Chicken Kabsah. The gentleman asked "do you want it spicy?" I told him "oh gosh, I'm a weenie" (its true, I have a pretty intense sensitivity to capsaicin i wish I didnt have). It was delicious. Perfect. The kabsah was SPICED - as in very very well seasoned - but not spicy. Chicken was tender and not dry at all. Portions were massive. Enough for me and my parter to share an order. Baklava was perfect. Will absolutely come back when I'm in the area again.

Fantastic hole in the wall spot. Humble and delicious. The man goes out of his way to make this little shop a great dining experience. Roasted lamb was flavourful and incredibly tender, almost like butter. Rice was fragrant and flavorful. Fava beans were a standout, especially accompanied by the Yemeni bread. Definitely not to be missed!

Stopped in for a quick lunch and was graced by the tender bliss that is chicken kabsah. The intensity of spice was enough to leave me both surprised and humored. Will recommend to a friend. 👌 And will be back to try the baklava. 😋
