I
came
here
back
in
September
last
year
and
always
put
off
making
a
review.
But
the
food
was
so
bad
that
I
absolutely
had
to
make
a
review
and
warn
other
people
who've
ACTUALLY
had
Yemeni
food.
The
food
is
absolutely
whitewashed
and
tastes
nothing
like
food
I've
had
in
Brooklyn(ex.
Yemen
Cafe)
and
Dearborn
Michigan.
The
food
tasted
WATERED
DOWN
and
the
restaurant
smelled
like
dogs.
I
was
nauseous
with
the
dog
smell
and
flavorless
food.
There
were
basic
things
that
tasted
decent
like
Shish
Taouk
platter
but
it's
one
of
the
most
basic
dishes
to
follow
in
any
middle
eastern
restaurant.
The
lamb
Fahsa
was
flavorless
and
nothing
like
what
I've
had
at
family
owned
Yemeni
restaurants.
The
meat
and
gravy
wasn't
the
same,
the
meat
wasn't
soft
and
in
a
really
low
quantity,
the
gravy
was
soupy,
and
I
think
I
recall
potatoes
and
okra
in
the
Fahsa-
I've
never
had
potatoes
in
Fahsa.
The
potatoes
made
the
dish
harder
to
eat
because
they
were
flavorless
and
mouth-burning.
Maybe
this
was
just
a
different
recipe
for
fahsa
but
I
always
questioned
if
the
potatoes
and
okra
were
added
in
the
flavorless
dish
to
make
it
more
"exotic"
but
somewhat
familiar
to
it's
customers.
We
also
ordered
a
soup
which
was
basically
Lamb
Fahsa
without
the
meat,
it
was
the
same
exact
broth.
So
I'm
assuming
this
fahsa
is
veggie-based.
I
was
really
looking
forward
to
eating
here
but
nothing
here
tasted
similar
to
the
spices
and
seasonings
I've
had
before
with
Yemeni
food.
I
had
to
add
salt
to
almost
everything
I
ate.
For
dessert,
we
had
Kunafa.
Guys,
how
do
you
mess
up
kunafa.
The
kunafa
barely
had
any
syrup,
it
was
kind
of
soggy,
and
the
cream
in
the
kunafa
wasn't
sweet
at
all.
It
just
tasted
bad.
If
you
don't
want
authentic
Yemeni
food,
come
here.
If
you
can't
handle
seasonings
of
another
culture,
come
here.
I
came
here
from
New
Jersey
thinking
a
5-star
Yemeni
place
had
to
be
amazing,
but
of
course
it
was
a
complete
disappointment.
Go
to
a
family
owned
restaurant
where
the
restaurant
doesn't
cater
to
the
palette
of
people
who
are
unfamiliar
with
their
cuisine.
The
staff
was
extremely
friendly
but
this
is
one
of
the
worst
food
experiences
I've
ever
had.
