I tried this restaurant several times and it has been great every time. Delicious homemade style dishes. Great friendly service and very clean restaurant with lots of easy parking. Absolutely the best Yemeni Restaurant in the State.

Chicken was so perfectly cooked and seasoned. I really enjoyed it. The server did warn me that the bread didn't go with this meal, because it came with rice. but I really wanted to try the bread. Which was delicious. I ended up not eating the rice, because putting the chicken on the bread and using the sauces that came with the chicken was just too good. I got their house tea and it was really great. This place just opened up, and I highly recommend giving it a go.

The important part is that the Yemeni food is delicious and the hosts are as welcoming as if they've invited you into their own home kitchen.

Cafe Sabah has easily become one of my favorite spots since moving to Washington. The flavors here…read morereally stand out! Everything has that deep, smoky, grilled taste that makes each bite so satisfying. You can tell a lot of care goes into the food. I tried a variety of dishes, and nothing missed, but the mixed grill plate was the highlight for me. It's the perfect option if you want to sample different meats, and every piece was flavorful, juicy, and cooked perfectly.The space itself is beautiful--very open, clean, and inviting. The music adds to the experience, giving it a great atmosphere without being overwhelming. There's also plenty of parking, which makes visiting super easy

Happened to be in the area, so decided to stop by for an early dinner. There's a pretty big parking…read morelot around the building. The restaurant itself is pretty large too, with 3 different seating areas. When we arrived, there were a few parties already there in the middle and left sections. For some reason, they sat us in the right section all my ourselves. Other parties that came in after us were all sat in the middle section, so we were the only party in that area the entire time. We did get service, but it was extremely minimal. They didnt check on us at all, and we sat around for quite awhile waiting for someone to come by to get us our bill/clear the table. It definitely felt like we were being segregated against, as we were the only East Asian party there. :c We did really enjoy the food. Flavors were on point. But unfortunately, the service and maybe segregation overshadowed our entire dining experience here.

3 decades of loyal dining at the Old Mediterranean proves how amazing the food is here…read more OK, when I need a blast of garlic throughout my body the Mediterranean Kitchen is my pit stop... A friendly greeting as I walk into the establishment which is always welcome. A bowl of hot soup comes quickly after taking a seat... Pondering through the menu which I know by heart I order either the Shish Tawook, which is charbroiled tenderized chicken served over rice with a garlic sauce, YUM. However if that's not grabbing me I get the Kafta Kabob served over Yellow Rice, Hummus, Salad and Pita Bread to scoop up all those flavors. Occasionally I have the best of all world plate which is The Combination Plate featuring the Kabob Kafta kabob, Shish Tawook and lamb kabob charbroiled with tomatoes and onions. Now if that does not excite you nothing will... The place can get a rocking loud cause it's not huge but it has all the comforts of a big loud family meal. Parking is limited so be patient but the food is worth it 1000%.... And bring some mints cause it's a garlic night out...

The stars on this place is spot on!…read more Man it was so close to perfect. First the service is really good. I think the owner honestly loves the food that gets served and that translate to really good food. I was amazed at the flavor profile. I loved the vibrant taste and extravagant use of garlic in al the dishes. We even brought our 1 year old here and she loved a lot of the food even some of the more flavorful ones. I think I can echo that some of the grilled meat can be a little dry or rough. I do think that might just be the cut of meat that is used and maybe that's how it might taste? But I have faith that with some different meat cuts those can come out a lot juicier. Even at 4 stars, I do suggest anyone reading this to go check this place out. Its definitely a party of flavors.
