I ordered their chicken mandi with doordash, loved it and decided to go in person. 1. Chicken Mandi was outstanding for the 2nd time. 2. The lamb haneeth was another delicious option and cooked to perfection. 3. The fahsah demonstrated all the beautiful things you can do with lamb. The service was also great. I loved the humble calm environment and you can tell the food is cooked with love and a promise to satisfy their customers within the taste of the food and service. read more

Diyar Al Yemen - Chicken Mandi. - Mediterranean Near Me - Marietta, Georgia

This food is flavorful!!!!! It reminds me of several Indian type flavors but also unique in its own way. The server told us that we could have a bowl of soup. There were two kinds. I had the lentil. It was my least favorite part of the meal as it tasted bitter and really salty. The sauces she brought out were freshly made and had some zing! I loved the green salsa one more than the tomato based one. I had a chicken shawarma with extra pickles. It was delicious and stuffed with meat and toppings. See my picture! It was cooked perfectly. I would order this again for sure. We also split a chicken rice dish that was seasoned with curry type flavors. Get an order of the white garlic sauce to dip everything in because that was fantastic. Yummmmm!!! Several people were ordering the platters which looked amazing. The prices were reasonable. Highly recommended. read more

Excellent food in a humble no-frills restaurant. We have gone back twice and it's the same experience - really flavorful food, solid portions. They have complimentary soups available - really delicious lentil and some sort of meat broth soup. They sing deep to the soul and get you ready for the meal. The family platter was really big, the meat was also incredibly seasoned and very tender. It comes with sauces (not pictured) that go really well with the rice (think like a salsa/chutney), very fresh tasting. The salad was a little wilted but everything else made up for it. The fahsah was interesting, spicy and tangy, and the bread that came with it sopped it up. Seating and service aren't anything too fancy - it's limited staff and the restaurant itself has a humble interior. The floor seating is cute though not too fancy, be prepared to take your shoes off if you choose to sit there. read more

This new HALAL restaurant is a must-try. We have been waiting some time for them to open and they didn't disappoint. We tried a variety of foods including lentil soup, chicken shawarma, fahsah, and the half chicken mandi, as well as the cola and adeni tea. The lentil soup and fahsah were the fan favorites among the family. The shredded lamb in the fahsah was very tender and had a great flavor. The chicken shawarma did not stand out as much as we had hoped, but still had good taste to it. It would be the perfect quick bite to take back to the office. The adeni tea offered us a fragrant, spiced finish to the meal. The staff are all very friendly and keep the restaurant nice and clean. The variety of seating styles makes the experience unique. We are looking forward to our next visit. Food- 5/5 Service- 5/5 Ambiance- 5/5 read more

My first time trying Yemeni food and I wasn't disappointed! The portions were very generous and the chicken was fall off the bone tender! The spices and flavors were aromatic and subtle yet balanced. The meal felt healthy and wholesome. The sauces were great! One was very spicy (which I loved). Will definitely be coming back for more! Takeout service was great too! read more

Diyar Al Yemen - Chicken Kabsa - Mediterranean Near Me - Marietta, Georgia

A revelation. I've never had Yemeni food until last Saturday. I was looking at a Lincoln at Pugmire Lincoln and worked up a mighty hunger. Diyar Al Yemen was right next door and it smelled good! So I went in. The service was so friendly and fast. She quickly took our order and let us know there was free soup available (first come, first served). We ordered the Mushakal and the Chicken Kabsa, The Mushakal stew was delicious! It was so flavorful and chocked full of veggies (potatoes, carrots, okra, etc.). The Chicken Kabsa was a deliciously flavorful rice dish that paired great with the stew and made for great take-home leftovers. read more

Friendly service and reasonable prices, but no where near actual Yemeni food. We ordered the chicken Mandi and lamb haneth. Both came with mandi rice, and that's usually the highlight of most yemeni dishes as it is usually cooked under the meat and absorbs all the dripping oil and fire smell in it, but in this case it was just stale basmati rice cooked in a pot. The chicken was also dry. On the positive side, The lamb was falling off the bone and really good, the sauces were both good, and I appreciate the free soups and tea! Try it out, maybe it was an odd day with the rice, but the lamb is definitely worth it. read more

Figured we'd give Yemeni food a try - would it be middle eastern, North African or "Mediterranean" as it says on the signage? Turns out it doesn't matter because the food was SO good. We started off with the surprisingly free and yummy and warming lentil soup, thin in texture but rich in flavor and the equally good (and free!) lamb consume with bits of onion and red pepper. Oh did I mention the delicious (and free!) tea redolent of Turkish tea but honestly better with deep flavors of cardamom, cinnamon, clove and ginger. The friendly Moroccan woman running the place all by herself helped us through the vast menu, but we settled on Fahsah, meltingly slow cooked shredded lamb that comes bubbling in a clay pot, accompanied by warm homemade Yemeni flat bread. Think Mexican lamb Birria on steroids. If you love lamb like me, you'll love this dish but it's not for the faint of heart. The grated tomato pulp with garlic and salt cut through the spiciness of the dish. We also ordered the chicken shawarma, which was just okay - would have preferred dark meat as the white meat was slightly overcooked and on the dry side - and it needed to have a white sauce inside to help. We saw many other dishes we'd like to try and will be back for sure! Give this place a try - the adventurous eater will not be disappointed! The desserts looked incredible and the breakfast menu is tempting as well! The ambience is typical strip mall but they do have traditional floor seating and interesting scenic photographs of Yemen on the walls. read more

The service and the food were amazing. I dropped a star because I'm used to my chicken shawarma having pickles in them. The description said pickles would be in it but mine did not have pickles. There were cucumbers, but I was hoping for a dill pickle flavor. Pro tip: mix the garlic sauce with the verde hot sauce to dip the falafel and the red sauce over the chicken. read more

The food is amazing. So flavorful and authentic. I truly enjoy it. The customer service is also wonderful! I love the ambiance because they have these little booths you can sit in on the floor and it actually gives you a little privacy! It's just a great spot! read more

Diyar Al Yemen - Mediterranean Near Me - Marietta, Georgia

I had never had Yemeni food, but I can't wait to have it again! I ordered the Fahsah and bread with a mango smoothie, and the food came out in a stone bowl bubbling hot. It had such a rich mixture of spices and flavors, and boy do I love it dip bread into hot stews. The service was attentive and really liked the look and feel of the place with its more authentic floor seated areas. Will absolutely be back! read more

We tried this newly opened Yemeni restaurant with a big group--party of 30 or more--and it was absolutely fantastic! Every single one of us loved it. The food, the atmosphere, and most of all, the heart behind this place make it a must-visit. Yes, they're still getting into their groove, but honestly, for a new restaurant, they're doing an incredible job. If you're looking for a polished, fine-dining experience, this may not be your spot--**yet**. But if you want authentic, soulful Yemeni food and genuinely warm hospitality, you've found the right place. The dishes were full of flavor and came out fresh. Some items took a bit longer, but it was well worth the wait and the experience was so memorable that I'd go back again and again. A huge shoutout to Mo, the owner and chef. His story is inspiring--starting work at 13, learning the ropes, and now running his own place with a passion you can taste in every bite. He's kind, hardworking, and committed to great customer service. He even made sure our massive group was taken care of personally. Yes, there were a few small bumps--some minor confusion--but honestly, that didn't matter at all. The staff is doing their best, and the level of care we received far outweighed any hiccups. This place is more than a restaurant--it's a labor of love. Support them, enjoy the incredible food, and don't be surprised if you find yourself becoming a regular. I know I will. We tried pretty much everything and loved it all. Lamb Haneeth Lamb kabsa All the shawarmas Fahsah (make sure you eat this with bread) Falafel Hummus (best hummus I've eaten in a restaurant) Lamb soup Mandi You name it we tried it! And it was all fantastic! Thank you mo for giving us an opportunity to try amazing authentic Yemeni food! The first of its kind in Atlanta and absolutely amazing! Let me also reiterate that in this large group of people the age ranged from a toddler to elderly up to 80s year old. There was someone present from each decade of age group and not one person had a complaint nor frustration. We all left content, satisfied, full, and happy. Oh and we went on Mother's Day. So you can only imagine how busy they were, yet our experience and food was on point! read more

My hubby and drive from Calhoun, just to eat here. Authentic Thai Cuisine, it's always incredible..

Dar Alyemen in Marietta is an absolute gem. Every dish tastes authentic and thoughtfully prepared. The shish tawook was incredibly tender and flavorful, perfectly seasoned and grilled just right. The salmon mukhbaz was a standout as well -- rich, aromatic, and cooked to perfection with spices that really shine. And don't skip the Adeni tea. It's warm, fragrant, and the perfect finish to the meal -- comforting and delicious. The food here feels homemade in the best way, with generous portions and bold flavors throughout. If you're looking for authentic Yemeni cuisine done right, Dar Alyemen is a must-visit. I'll definitely be back. read more

A good friend recommended this spot and I was pleasantly surprised. It sits in a shopping plaza and I would have never noticed it. The food wasn't too spicy and came out quick and hot. I love lamb so I would definitely recommend anything with the lamb. read more

Tried this place on a busy Saturday night. Food was good, portion was large, and price was reasonable. 4/5 stars Service was very disappointing. Took forever to get our order taken. When food came, it didn't come with any silverware or dishes. Requests for these were ignored and we were left staring at the food. 2/5 stars This restaurant just opened so hopefully they iron out the service issues. read more

This restaurant is newly opened. We came on a Saturday and waited to be seated. Initially we were excited - the aromas were enticing and the restaurant seemed full. We were seated in the traditional seating where the floor was not clean. Ultimately we were moved to a wobbly table. We had to find someone to take our order. The dinner for 2 includes soup (which was out), chicken (which was out and supposed to be substituted for lamb in a bowl that did not come) and a veggie side dish. Flavors were great on the Saltah. We asked for bread twice and it did not come. We also had to get up find someone to get plates and cutlery. The Lamb rice dish is their signature dish but the rice was NOT COOKED all the way through. It was al dente which is not how rice is eaten. There were absolutely no explanations or apologies for the poor service, and certainly no discounts to make up for the missing food. This place has a ways to go before it should be open for dining. read more

Food was decent but not amazing. Also wasn't very hot when it came out. The rice was room temp, and the stew Fahsa was very watery. The service was really bad but I think the place is worth trying. Just be patient with the servers as they forget everything and didn't even offer us drinks. The salads could have been very good, they just needed more salt! read more

I'm vegan so I had the falafel sandwich and the lentil soup. It was really good! I've recommended to a few of my co-workers and they said they really enjoyed the food too! I'm so glad to have a good Mediterranean food restaurant in the area. No doubt, 5 Stars! read more

Great resturant with great authentic food . They have free soup and authentic tea. The setting area can be on mattresses or on chairs

Great place! I actually lived in Yemen when I was a child for one year (in Sanaa), and this place is on point. I have not had shawarma that good since I lived there. I highly recommend this restaurant. Beautiful interior and kind service too! read more

the food was amazing i loveddddd the lamb haneeth fall of the bonee. customer service was great and freee teaa after the foodd.

First time experience and was excited to try out this restaurant for the first time. The restaurant is small and has limited seating. Even the booth was tight and not comfortable. The A/C was not turned on either and the place became very warm and uncomfortable. When the food arrived the soups were either spicy or salty and the haneeth rice was cold & undercooked. The lamb meat was not tender as it should be and was not much for the plate. All in all I would not recommend this restaurant as it does not do justice for authenticity & Yemeni cuisine. read more

Loved it!!!! Best shawarma I've ever had! Nice place. We got togo food, but can't wait to bring our family to eat in the restaurant.
