★★★★★ 5.0 Nafisatou Mounkaila · Mar 2026

The staff at Yemenat were so gracious with me and my friend! We were a walk-in on a very busy day and still managed to get a table after a very short wait. The ambiance was warm and lively. The food was something to write home about! Absolutely rich and delicious! I had the lamb haneeth and the beef fahsa. Talk about flavor! I wish my stomach could take it all in, but the portions were so generous. Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better? I got dessert: The bent assahan was out of this world! Light, flaky, buttery. My goodness. Thank you so much Yemenat for a remarkable meal.

One of the best restaurants we’ve tried in NY! So so recommended. The young waiter was kind, knowledgeable and professional. The kitchen delivers exquisite meals very quickly and you barely wait. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. You have unlimited homemade hot chai, which is ideal during winter. We strongly recommend trying and supporting this place. We will come back!

★★★★★ 5.0 Olga NYC · Dec 2025

It was our first time trying a Yemeni restaurant, and we were very impressed. The food was incredibly flavorful, bold, and colorful. I especially loved the Hadrami rice. The Chicken Haneeth, a traditional Yemeni dish with tender, slow-cooked chicken marinated in aromatic spices, was excellent. I highly recommend making a reservation, as the restaurant is popular. We’ve visited twice on weekends, and both times it was full and crowded; otherwise, the wait time can be around an hour. The space and number of tables are limited. Portions are very generous — we couldn’t finish everything and took some food home. The pomegranate drink was also great. The only downside is if you’re seated near the entrance — every time the door opens, cold air comes in, which can be uncomfortable in winter. In

A wonderful Michelin Bib Gourmand Yemeni restaurant in Bayridge. The large shafoot makes great platform to enjoy bubbling beef fahsa and the other dishes. Muva whole branzino came out tend on top and crispy on the skin , Lamb haneeth a little tougher than I expected. The dishes came out fast and hot, waiter kept waters refilled and we all tried the complimentary hot beverage. A great delicious inexpensive spot to take your family to.

Yemenat delivers an outstanding dining experience from start to finish. The food, service, atmosphere, and cleanliness were all exceptional, and everything we ordered was full of flavor and beautifully prepared. 🍽️ Food Quality Every dish was excellent and authentically prepared. We ordered: • Beef Fahsa • Lamb Haneeth • Hummus • Rashoosh (fresh Yemeni bread) Drinks: • Fresh pomegranate juice • Aseer Leem (mint lemon drink) The meats were tender and deeply flavorful. The bread was fresh and paired perfectly with the dishes. The drinks were refreshing and clearly made with care. Everything tasted fresh, balanced, and authentic. 👨‍🍳 Service Customer service was excellent. The staff was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind. Many staff members speak Arabic, which is a big plus in th
