Best Yemeni Restaurant in Chicago

I was just passing by and decided to pull into the lot for takeout — best decision ever. Absolutely loved my lunch ! I tried the Lahm Mandi and it was incredible; the meat was juicy, tender, and full of flavor. I’ve honestly never had mandi like this before. I also ordered the Haneed, and it reminded me so much of the taste I used to get at Taaza Bakery near Devon, which says a lot. The portion size was very generous and totally worth it. Everything was cooked perfectly and felt authentic. Highly recommend for anyone craving real mandi!

A fantastic and underrated new Yemeni restaurant. The Chicken 65 Kabsa was outstanding — generous portions, tender chicken, and beautifully spiced rice with a satisfying kick. Their spiced tea was equally impressive. Great food paired with genuinely warm and welcoming service.

Was here for Chicken Haneeth, and Lamb Zurbian: Absolutely loved it! The lamb was incredibly tender and flavorful, cooked to perfection, while the Chicken Mandi was juicy with authentic smoky aroma. The rice was fragrant and perfectly spiced. A must-try for anyone who loves traditional Arabian cuisine.

Second visit and just as good as the first. The Fahsa was excellent—served hot in a traditional stone bowl with tender meat, rich broth, and perfectly balanced spices. Very authentic and comforting, especially with the fresh bread. Consistent quality and great flavor. Highly recommended.
