Excellent Arabic-Yemeni food In the neighborhood for an art opening, my wife and I tried this place -- which is actually at 201 Central Ave., not at TripAdvisor's address of 1294 Myrtle Ave. It's actually the same place.

We had the "Variety Dip" appetizer, with three mouthwatering dips and fat pitas for $9.95. Then I had the Falafel Meal ($10) with the best falafel balls I've ever had -- soft in the middle, crusty on the outside. My wife had the Salmon Kabob Meal ($16) which was very tasty. I had Yemeni Tea ($3.50), which tasted of cardamom. We don't get around here often, but when we're around again, we'll definitely come back. read less

I recommend this place to anyone looking to try Middle Eastern food. I would come here again!
As a plus, the waitress, Sarah, is delightful! read lessThe food here is as sweet as the music that's been played. Very smooth and lovely, sometimes the tempo is tempting on your feet.

For the most part, I felt relaxed. Just know that there might be a little wait for the food (hence it's freshness), they have some amazing things that they do with eggs that I am not used to and definitely will have to try again.
Can't talk about the coffee, but I'm sure that it's great otherwise my wife wouldn't come here multiple times. I've only had tea on my single visit and the aroma alone was divine 🙌🏿. read less

To pay $18 + tax for one dish and wait 30 min for I was annoyed. So I called back and they immediately apologized and sent over a whole new dish, this time with the veggies and the sauce (and they threw in an extra free sauce!). The food was suuuper fresh and tasty. You can tell the sauces were housemade too. Def eating here again!! read less
Very cool spot; they have books and games on a communal table.As far as food, the babaghanoush was very good (for the price).Avoid the chicken here: you're clearly looking at the cheapest, unhealthiest version of chickens out there.

While the salad was pretty good, I couldn't eat over two thirds of my chicken which was way too fatty and chewy. I get that brown parts of the chicken are by default fattier, however those parts on good quality chicken don't actually have visible fat that makes the meat impossible to cut or eat.I understand that it's an inexpensive place, but I'd rather have a third of the amount of chicken and have it be free range than serve a platter of inedible meat. read less
