"Cute spot for a nice bite in the afternoon. Wonderful Jerusalem neighborhood vibes. The food was yummy and the lemonade was also good, sour, and refreshing! The cold coffee was a little too weak/had too much milk. But very sweet experience overall:)"

"Sitting is very pleasant, and - it’s open in Saturday! (Special payment arrangement).
The food was ok+, but…
The Hummus is from beans. It’s nice, but… I like real hummus better.
The Jahnun was too soft for my taste. I like it more baked/burned.
The Baba Janush (pic) seemed nice, but personally I don’t like so much eggplant or beet.
So… while I would recommend this place, for me it’s 4."

"We got here by bare chance! We were looking for a place to have some food on Saturday and ran into that amazing small Yemen restaurant. We were totally charmed by the place, the food and the service.
It's suitable for those who keeps shabbes as you have to pay only when the shabbes is over.
Highly recommended!"
