One of my few experiences at a Yemeni restaurant, our server was very kind and helpful. I enjoyed the mango juice and mandi chicken. The mango juice was very flavorful and the chicken dish was huge! I was eating chicken and rice for two more meals at home. The chicken was a little dry but season nicely. The restaurant was spacious and not crowded - option to sit on the more cultural cushions on the ground. The restrooms clean. read more

I had the Lamb Hanith with extra lamb and both types of Sambusa, beef and chicken. The sambusa were great and recommend both. The lamb hanith was great as well and very filling, I shouldn't have gotten extra lamb. The meal comes with two sauces and I use the yogurt sauce on the rice since the rice was slightly dry. I need to try the Mandi Lamb again when I come back. The service was great and the lady at the counter was very patient with me and explained to me the difference between all the lamb dishes they have. The restaurant itself was clean and not overcrowded since most of the orders I saw there today were to go. I highly recommend Hadramout read more

Hadramout Restaurant is a unique gem for Yemeni cuisine, tucked away in the corner of a shopping plaza. The interior may be simple, but the authentic flavors and warm atmosphere make it stand out. For a more traditional experience, you can even enjoy cushioned floor seating. The lamb dishes were amazing. Tender, fragrant, and perfectly spiced with generous portions that are great for sharing. The prices are reasonable, and the service is friendly, making it feel like a cozy, home-cooked meal. Lots of parking and friendly staff! read more

My first time having Yemeni style food, I really like it a lot. The service was really good. Since it's our first time here, the waiter staff explained the menu to us and make recommendations on what the try. They don't have tap water only bottle water if you want water. If you really like lamb, I recommend getting Fahesa, the fish was good too and Hanith Lamb! The service is outstanding as they explained the menu to us and the food came out very fast. Fahesa is a must try dish at the restaurant. You can also sit on the ground, the traditional way of people at Yemen eat food there. read more

Very delicious food! I can't wait to come back and try more, the service was also great. The place is nice, could use a little do up.

Good quality food. Neat and clean environment. Helpful staff. Chicken and Lamb mandi were tasty however quantity of rice in lamb mandi should be increased seeing portion of lamb meat. Should have green salads too available. read more

The food is delicious, we ended up having dinner here randomly.

Which is always a plus ! read more

Dine-in: 5 stars Takeout trays: 3.5 stars We dined in 3 months ago at the Arabic seating area and loved it. Food and service were both good. Yesterday we had guests over, so we ordered pickup. They said half a tray feeds 7 people. We were 10, so we ordered 2 mandi half trays: one chicken and one lamb. The lamb mandi had lots of rice and little meat. The chicken mandi had 2 chicken halves. The meats were barely enough for us. Also, the fattoush had no seasoning or dressing at all. Baba ganoush was ok. We'll be back for dine-in only. read more

I ordered takeout from Hadramount because of the great Yelp reviews and article on Eater, but I wasn't that impressed. It was fine, but I wouldn't order it again. I ordered the hummus, plus bread, hanith lamb, and zurbian chicken. The hummus was fine, pretty standard and good, but the meats were a little dry, in my opinion. And the rice that came with the chicken didn't include raisins as described on the menu. One good point was that the portions were very generous. Overal, Hadramount was just OK. read more

I ordered Hanith chicken for the first time - it's a baked chicken - and it was great - moist and juicy. It's almost like a rotisserie chicken but with spices. Loved this choice - I will definitely buy it again. I generally love the fish at Hadramout but today I was greatly disappointed. It was soaking in oil and there wasn't enough of the sour agent that usually gives a great taste to the fish. I sure hope it was a one time thing. Staff at Hadramout are always friendly and helpful. I enjoy going here to refresh my taste buds and there are so maybe options. read more

I ordered haneeth because it has the best reviews on yelp The meet was a little dry the rice is ok but not great, the yogurt sauce is very week The service is bad Eatable but not great experience Not comparable to other Yemeni restaurants in other states Needs work read more

10/10 everytime. Hanith lamb. So tender it basically falls of the bone and is seasoned perfectly !! The rice portion is very generous and flavored perfect. Every part of this dish is authentic to the tee. We also ordered tabouleh. It was a perfect side and starter for the lamb. Also, the lamb broth soup!! You cannot go wrong starting with this. It has the perfect spice and flavor you'll be ready for more! Staff is so sweet and helpful! They definitely take this already amazing restaurant OVER THE TOP in goodness. 100% recommend if you're in the area! read more

Very tasty Thai cuisine with chic layout. Manager mentions live music on weekend from 6 to 9 pm

Middle Eastern food in Houston is so delish! So tasty, flavorful, and scrumptious. This establishment is a 5 for me and I only tasted one dish! I definitely feel I will like the chicken and fish dishes based upon my meal, the reviews, and the photos. I just happened upon this place and decided to give it a try and I'm so glad I did! I ordered the Hanith lamb and I am so glad I did. I have been craving lamb for a few days but didn't want steakhouse lamb chop or rack of lamb. I was going to visit an Indian restaurant for Vindaloo but this place stuck up to me and calling my name. Lamb Hanith $17.99 6/5- This dish gets a star above the highest rating because that's how much I like it. Perfectly seasoned and well-cooked tender lamb placed on a humongous bed of basmati rice with sweet caramelized onions. The onions had a onion jam flavor to it and added depth to the dish. Seriously good balance of bites- one savory and the other a tinge of sweetness. The dish was served with two sauces, red and white but I don't know what they tastes like because to me nothing needed to be added. So simple but a game changer. I need to impress that the pictures are a little deceiving. The box the food comes in is 25% bigger than the regular to-go box so you get a LOT of food. I mean, a lot and it was great. I will have to freeze some of it. I will be tasting other dishes later. read more

I was very excited to come to this restaurant and drove a while to get here. We ordered lamb hanith, chicken zurbiyan, fattoush, and marag. The lamb hanith (lamb shank piece) and chicken zurbiyan were really dry. Fattoush and marag were alright. But what got me upset was the service. So, I usually don't write about service because people can have bad days and what not. The waitress was annoyed with us as soon as we sat on the table. I just let it go because maybe she was having a long day, but then another group came in and she started smiling and laughing with them. When we asked for the menu, she said to scan the QR code ar the table while walking off. When they asked, she nicely explained all the main dishes. I don't think I'll be going here again.

The best Yemeni food in town. 1. Food: The food is really good. You can never go wrong with a good Hanith Chicken or Lamb Chicken. The Fattoush was also really good! The hummus tho was not good at all. So avoid ordering hummus. 2- Service: the service is nice. The lady with the Hijab is always nice to us and get us everything we ask for in a timely manner. 3- Atmosphere/Place: they have the Arab seatings where you can get to sit on the ground and get that traditional Arab atmosphere. 4- Price: The prices are reasonable and good based on what you're receiving. Huge portions. read more

An authentic restaurant for some middle-eastern (Yemenite) delicacies! Had a slightly disappointing start due to unavailability of the lamb mandi but our next choice meal of the 'Hanith Lamb' didn't disappoint! '+'s: Mandi: Hanith Lamb - perfect balance of spices with a very tender and well-cooked lamb! The sauce on top was a tad too thick and dry but when combined alongside the tomato & yogurt sides, adds a good taste! A personal recommendation would be to introduce the original concept of serving mandi in one massive plate serving 2-3 ppl which individuals can portion out, share and consume as needed! read more

What an experience! There is floor seating which is a traditional way to eat in the Middle East and other parts of the world. So of course we sat in the floor seating area. Our baby lovvvved it. Now the food, I love that they specialize in a few things because it makes it less overwhelming to choose. We ordered grilled chicken and a lamb dish. Both were DELICIOUS! Will be back regularly read more

We went pretty late and they were almost out of everything, but still fairly busy. They let us have the sitting area in the back, which was really nice.. My friends immediately ordered the last two mandi lamb. I ordered my chicken separate because I do not eat lamb. The chicken was fall off the bone tender. (Slightly dry meat because it is halal, but still very tender if that makes sense). It came with a yogurt sauce and a salsa like sauce. Both were very good with the rice. Honestly, the rice was my favorite thing. It was very soft and had just enough flavor to be eaten alone. The price point, quality, and quantity of food was excellent. I'd like to come back one day and try their other dishes. read more

We tried chicken mandi rice here and that brought me to couple years ago when i was in Middle East. The Mandi rice they have tastes like original Mandi rice in Yemen. The fresh sauce also awesome. They serve the dishes in aluminum plates, exactly the way they should be. Room for improvement: please open earlier. They open at 12 pm but they were late also when we were there. So we gotta wait outside. Second thing, there are a lot of flies until they burn the oud fragrance. But the smoke from the fresh new burnt oud was so disturbing. I guess if they prepared better earlier un the morning, they wouldnt have had this happened. read more

Hadramout Restaurant - Hanith Lamb - Middle Eastern Near Me - Houston, Texas

The food is excellent. However, I would feel like it is doing this place a disservice if I don't mention the lack of service. I have come here many times with friends and family and every time the waiters miss the simplest (but most important) things like plates and silverware! What's worse is when you ask them you are given lackluster responses. The place is clean, food delicious but again the staff are so disinterested in actually being servers that it leaves you thinking if. it had been better to just go eat somewhere else. It shouldn't be that hard to get plates, silverware and napkins...Perhaps they only have a limited amount and that's why they are so stingy but again you're in the restaurant business so these things should be pretty standard. Would love to give a 4/5 star rating here but I just can't because of these things. read more

First time trying yemen food and it's was ok, I like more spicy stuff and overall it was not spicy at all, the lamb was cooked perfect and tender, chicken was tender and delicious and rice was different and tasty, I asked for spicy sauce but they brought me some Cajun hot sauce, I was hopping to get some house special spicy sauce, overall not my type of restaurant. read more

Hadramout Restaurant - Hanith Lamb - Middle Eastern Near Me - Houston, Texas

This was my first time eating food from Yemen. I originally thought it was Indian bc of the biryani chicken on the menu, but my friend who introduced it to me told me it wasn't. We had a huge order, all getting different chicken items. They ended up giving it to us all in one big party platter (which makes no sense in general - if you have different orders, why put them in one tray, and no sense during covid times either) and added in lamb (when we called to ask about lamb they originally told us they didn't have it...), so we don't know if this was our order or a mix up. But all our chicken was accounted for in the platter and our hummus/pita appetizer was there. Aside from the confusing and odd mix up/customer service, the food was great. It all came with white and red sauce. The rice is so flavorful, the meat literally all fell off the bone, and the hummus was super creamy. I'd definitely come back again. read more
