Alshaybani Restaurant

“Great food, friendly staff, and a really nice Setting.”

I’ve had Yemeni food from all over New York and so far Alshaybani has to be my absolute favorite. This is actual authentic Yemeni food. Tastes just like the exact food you would get in a Yemeni restaurant in Yemen. The bread was actually fully cooked unlike some other places where you can still smell and taste the raw dough. The tea was perfect and the service was great. We had hummus and lahim suqar (chopped meat) it was the perfect breakfast. It was very comfortable to eat in there because they also had a curtain in between each table.

I am really surprised this place is rated so high. The food here is indeed very good. However, moving past the food, there are some clear downsides. Many dishes from the menu were missing, the decor feels cheap, and tea is served in paper cups. They also gave us only one menu to share..... I suppose I would only recommend this place if you’ve smoked a bit and have the munchies, either by yourself or as a duo. It's solely about the food here, not the atmosphere or the service
