Bab Al-Yemen Restaurant مطعم باب اليمن 468 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, MA 02215

"This place lives up to its reputation! We enjoyed the Fahsa so much. The Chicken Mandi was one of the best chicken dishes I’ve eaten. The hummus was truly Devine. Service was kind and the atmosphere was great."

"Everything was very delicious! The decor is very beautiful! Downstairs there is a display along with a prayer room and bigger tables. Upstairs is meant for smaller groups. The Yemeni cocktail is delightful. Very mango forward. I recommend the stew. It came out boiling hot and very fragrant. Such an amazing blend of flavors. The portions are decently sized of you're hungry. Took so much leftover home."

"I have mixed feelings, I loved the restaurant, decor, cleanliness, front service and the food. You have to make a reservation and you will get charged if no show per person. We made a reservation for 9pm, knowing that the kitchen closes at 9:30 and the restaurant closes at 10. We arrived at 8:40 pm. We waited a few minutes ( totally understandable). We got seated, while we were ordering I was told that chicken dishes were not available " Don't have anymore", I immediately made a quick decision to lamb. The waiter noticed I was upset since I really wanted chicken so somehow the chicken dish was available. I was asked if I wanted soup or salad, and decided for soup. Everyone in our party was pleased with their food choices hummus, baba ganoush, the bread was so fresh and tasted amazing, never got the soup but charged for it. The time passed us so quickly, the staff never told that they are closed, which I liked. We had a good time, the food was good, I guess don't make a late reservation. Im willing to try it again, I really liked it. Its halal."

"A different experience, the vibe is good. Looks busy with limited seating. Reserve one or two days prior to your visit. Ground seating requires you to take off your shoes. Food good and bland as the cuisine is such. Salt is hence placed on all tables."

"This place is exceptional!!! The food was absolutely delicious! Something on the menu for everyone. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful. Then truly ensured you had a positive and comfortable experience. The portion sizes are large and big enough to share. The food was fresh and came to the table hot. I highly recommend choosing the floor seating. It was so comfortable! Will definitely share my experience with all my friends."
