It's our first time dining here, but we had Yemeni food before in Brooklyn. I was hesitant to come here at first, as I'm not very familiar with the food, and the menu I found online was a bit confusing. But we come to the Bronx for the zoo and botanical garden multiple times a year, so I'd like to find something other than the familiar Italian places along Arthur.
We arrived and there was no one else dining in the restaurant on a Saturday. We were greeted warmly and were given menus, and a young guy came offering help with the menu. To be honest, he couldn't exactly answer the questions we asked, but I did my homework (just a bit of googling lol) so we ordered everything quickly.
The food came really quickly, and although most of the staff seemed unable to communicate in English, they tried their best to be helpful. Everything was piping hot and fresh, and delicious. The bread was so fluffy and yummy I had way too much, and they served two big pieces which were more than enough for us. The portions here in general are pretty big.
We'd definitely come back next time we're in the Bronx. I hope they can add some description to their menu so those who are not familiar with the cuisine can easily decide what they want. :)
