Hadramout Restaurant: Authentic Yemeni Cuisine in Brooklyn

I love eating out but very very very rarely do I take the time and care to write reviews on Google maps. I only do it when something is exceptionally good or exceptionally bad….in this case it’s the former. The food was genuinely one of the best meals I’ve had in my life (maybe also from the fact that it was my first time trying out Yemeni food). I had the lamb fahsa with the bread that it’s eaten with and the tea they served us to drink. Everything was delicious, the food was very fresh, the meal was full of flavour (but not spicy) and the lamb was amazing in taste and way it was prepared. The tea was sweet (mint tea I believe ?) and I drank about 3 cups of it (you can refill !). Staff was very kind and lively and the server took the time to answer all of our questions. Overall, 10/10 in terms of everything, highly recommend, if you love yourself, go eat something from there.

10/10 everything is very flavorful. The staff is very nice. Everything is fresh made. Definitely would come back.

It was genuinely one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time! We got a land dish and a chicken dish which were phenomenal but then we tried the baklava and it blew us away! Additionally the vibe of the interior is so nice and beautiful! The service was beyond exceptional and our server was the sweetest! Overall this is an amazing restaurant and I will def be coming back again and again!

Loved every bite of this authentic Yemeni restaurant! Their bread comes out hot and fresh and is gigantic! They also have great fahsa stews with a variety of protein options ranging from vegetarian to fish or meat options, this is definitely a highlight and cannot be done with takeout because it is served in a large stone crater bowl. They also have delicious rice dishes and their mezze platter is a fantastic starter for the table, the babaghanoush is the best! Service is friendly and attentive, however they do not provide water and you have to buy bottled. Either way, highly recommend going with a big group and doing family style!

Always a delight to find a wholesome, delicious food offering in the middle of the night during the week. Delicious lamb, tender bread and the sizzler dish just warmed the soul! I don't want to butcher the spelling of the dishes that we got, but we had asked the server for some ideas and he did not lead us astray. Everything was flavorful, soul-nourishing and delicious!! The house hot sweet tea really hit the spot. The portions were large and we took plenty leftovers home. The baklava was not my favorite that I've had, but still a nice dessert after the savory meal.

Overall Experience We had a good overall experience at Hadramout Restaurant. The food was good, the service was excellent, and the atmosphere was comfortable. This is a solid option for traditional Yemeni food. Food What we ordered: • Lamb Haneeth • Kebsa Lamb The lamb haneeth was well cooked and flavorful, served in a generous portion with rice. The kebsa lamb was also good, with nicely seasoned rice and tender meat. Both dishes were satisfying and filling. Soup and salad came with the meals, which was a nice addition. The food was good overall, which is why this visit earned four stars. Service Service was five-star. Staff treated us very well, were polite, respectful, and attentive throughout the meal. We felt welcomed and taken care of. Many staff members speak Arabic, which is a big plus for the local community and adds to the authenticity of the experience. Atmosphere The atmosphere was okay. It was comfortable for dining, with a moderate noise level that allowed conversation. Nothing special, but perfectly fine for a sit-down meal. Vegetarian Options There is a vegetarian section on the menu with solid options like hummus, salads, vegetable dishes, and bread. While the restaurant focuses heavily on meat dishes, vegetarians will still find good choices available. Any other vegetarian details: Vegetarian dishes are clearly listed on the menu, and the staff is helpful if you have questions. Dietary Restrictions If you have dietary needs or restrictions, the staff is accommodating and willing to explain dishes and ingredients. It is best to ask when ordering. Parking How is the parking? Somewhat difficult to find, depending on the time. Parking options available: Paid street parking Paid parking garages nearby Parking is manageable but may require a short walk. Additional parking details: Located on a busy avenue, so planning ahead helps. Kid-Friendliness Kid-friendly environment. The restaurant is spacious, calm, and suitable for families with children. Wheelchair Accessibility The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. There is access via the sidewalk ramp, and entry into the restaurant is manageable without steps. Final Thoughts Hadramout Restaurant delivers an authentic Yemeni dining experience with excellent food, top-tier cleanliness, warm service, and a beautiful atmosphere. Every dish we tried was outstanding, and the overall experience exceeded expectations. Highly recommended. I will definitely be coming back.

The food was amazing. Started of some lamb galabah with creamy hummus and fahsa was amazing. For entree we had lamb haneth. It was good although it wasn’t salted enough. Finished with some fateh which was so good. Loved it

One of the best yammani restaurants in NY I cannot miss it during my stay in
