Hadramout is another spot I would easily put up there with some of the best Yemeni food in the city. The food is consistently packed with flavor, the portions are massive, and you are leaving very satiated every time. The beef fahsa and lamb haneeth are staples and absolutely worth ordering, but their fish is also something I would recommend trying. It adds a nice change of pace while still delivering on flavor. The service is nothing out of the ordinary, but the food more than makes up for it. This is the kind of place you come back to when you want a reliable, filling, and flavorful meal. read more

It is a very good place. Service can be on the slow side but it is understandable. It not a big fancy place. Food is good though. Second time went there. First was for a birthday celebration for one of our friend and second time for another birthday . Lamb Mandi is my fave. Portion is huge.. each times we ended up with lots of leftovers. Price is also good. It is worth the wait. read more

Excellent Halal Yemeni food! The Zurbian chicken was delicious, and the chicken pieces were very tender, fresh, and flavorful. The seating area was comfortable and pleasant. The only downside was that the service was a bit slow. We sometimes had to wait for a waiter to be available when we needed something. Other than that, everything was great. I would definitely recommend this place for authentic Yemeni food. read more

This is a great Arabic restaurant. The staff was friendly and definitely gave the restaurant a "hole-in-the-wall" or "family owned" restaurant feeling. The food was great, the lamb was tender and very well rendered. The gamey taste or the lamb paired really well with the rice and was a great portion for the price. My only con is that the restaurant is not the most pristine. It feels very minimal for the dining experience which for me means I probably wouldn't bring people there for anything other than to itch an Arabic food craving. read more

My first time here trying their food. By far this is the best lamb to have in Texas. Food was on point fresh. Service was good and welcoming. I dont care about the ambiance if the food is good . Go eat some quality food. read more

Hadramout restaurant - Middle Eastern Near Me - Plano, Texas

When we first walked into Hadramout Restaurant, the place was filled with smoke from the grill, which was overwhelming. We also noticed a lot of flies around, which was concerning. The waiter, however, was friendly and took the time to explain the menu to us, recommending a few dishes. We decided to try the Mandi lamb, Kabsa lamb, and Hanith lamb. When the food arrived, we were impressed with both the taste and the portion sizes--everything was delicious, but the portions were so large that none of us could finish our meals. However, I was disappointed by the cleanliness of the restaurant. For a party of six, they automatically added an 18% service charge, which is fair, but I hope they use that to improve the overall hygiene of the place. The cleanliness definitely needs more attention. If I crave this type of food again, I'll probably order it to-go instead of dining in. read more

Great taste. Authentic Arabic Cuisine. Ordered Chicken Mandi - which is their best chicken dish

Not much here to say about service and ambience. Went on a Sunday and there was only one other table so we were well attended to. The fish Mandi without the rice was very good. The chicken Mandi was also good with the chicken being quite tender. read more

We came home from a trip and decided to order in. I found this place by chance - and boy was I happy. Even with delivery, the food was hot and the flavors were wonderful. We ordered the Hanith Chicken. It was roasted chicken over saffron rice. We changed the rice to Durban rice, which meant that potatoes and raisins were mixed in. I'd recommend it! We got half a roasted chicken and a huge mound or the rice. And in Uber Eart, this was a BOGO!!!! So we have a lot of leftovers. We also ordered hummus, which had a real kick; we think it was horseradish. We also ordered fattoush salad, which came with a sweet vinegarette. The only disappointment was the lamb soup. I had hoped for pieces of lamb but it's just broth. Be sure to order extra Yemenite bread. It's a flatbread, not pita. And the hot sauce is hot, to be sure. This food is quite different than your typical Middle Eastern food. Maybe because Yemen is it really in the Middle East; its food culture is influenced by the Middle East but also from India and Africa. It's well worth the experience; well orders from there again! read more

Attentive and quick service for a busy restaurant! We came in on a Friday night and while it was packed, we were able to get seated right away. Our food was also out within 5-10 minutes of ordering. This restaurant is very affordable for the amount of food they give. Even as 3 hungry girls, we could've ordered 1 appetizer and 1 entree and been fine. We got the Mediterranean Plate to start, which was average. The only part I felt was skimpy was the accompanying bread--the 3 half pieces were not nearly enough for all the hummus and baba ghanoush. However, the extra spreads did make good pairings for the rice in the Kabasa Chicken and Mandi Chicken. I wish they came with yogurt sauce, but instead I used the hummus and salsa-type sauce they gave us at the beginning. The chicken was fall off the bone, but the breast meat was very dry despite the tenderness. Hadramout is a good beginner's dive into Yemeni and hits the spot for a craving, but definitely not the best you could try. read more

We've been coming here at least once or twice a month for the past two years. But today, we had a very bad experience -- the chicken was not cooked properly at all. This is not the quality we usually get with the Hanith chicken and Kabsa rice. We informed the server, but he said he couldn't do anything about it. Not recommended anymore read more

The Mandi at Hadramout is probably one of the best you'll find in DFW. I love how tender the chicken is, it's definitely a comfort food for me. read more

Hadramout restaurant - Mandi Chicken - Middle Eastern Near Me - Plano, Texas

This is by far the best restaurant in DFW. If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. The mandi chicken will fall off the bone even if you just wiggle the plate. The fish is amazingly flavored and also is easy to remove from the bone. The dessert isn't too sweet but is by far some of the best dessert I've ever had. The service has always been amazing and the staff has always been so kind and friendly. I have been here about a handful of times and the restaurant continues to blow my mind and remain consistently amazing. I literally dream about this restaurant. There is not a better restaurant in DFW, and it is one of the only Yemeni restaurants around. I had never had Yemeni food prior to trying this restaurant, and what a great representation of it, it is. I recommend that EVERYONE tries this restaurant. read more

I ordered the Mandi. Softest and most delicious lamb I ever had . And they are very generous with the meat too, unlike other places where it is mostly rice . Absolutely amazing food. read more

Food was tasty and wholesome. Service falls short of a standard. Indifferent and a nonchalant attitude. Except one most of hospitality staff forgot how to smile. Place is big and spacious but has a snug feeling needs some cleaning and sanitization, devoid of the normal courtesy. I will probably pick up a family meal soon from there. The price is high. read more

Hadramout restaurant - Mandi lamb Hanith chicken - Middle Eastern Near Me - Plano, Texas

This was my first time trying Yemeni food and it was delicious. The food had lots of flavor and chicken was very tender. The chicken literally fell off the bones. Each entree comes with a lot of rice, so the rice to chicken proportion is a bit off in my opinion. We also ordered the Mediterranean plate appetizer, which was also good, but it only came with 3 pieces of bread. We ended up having to pay for extra bread. They also charge you for water which I wasn't expecting. Overall, very nice to have something new in Plano. read more

Hadramout restaurant - three plates of food on a table - Middle Eastern Near Me - Plano, Texas

Though this restaurant has great reviews on Google, it wasn't as good as it is portrayed. We had the Ogda chicken and the Mandi chicken. The chicken was kind of dry, the flavor was good and the rice was great, but the chicken was not moist, it was extremely tender, but it was not moist. And chicken does get like that if it's cooked too long or cooked in a crock pot or pressure cooker, it gets very tender but it loses its moisture somehow. I realize it's not a Mediterranean or Pakistani restaurant, but every Middle Eastern restaurant I have eaten at, and I have eaten out a lot, have some type of cucumber yogurt or tatziki sauce, they had yogurt but it was just plain out of the container yogurt. I'm giving it three stars though because the food was fair and it was very affordable, there were three of us and the three meals we had more than filled us up and we had leftovers as well. read more

The food was delicious! I had a lamb dish it was seasoned well and the meat fell off the bone. Service was excellent and informative. The lighting is harsh. But large booths and variety of seating areas. No alcohol, ice tea, only hot teas and $1 for bottled water. Delicious desserts. We'll definitely go again. read more

Hadramout restaurant - Groupon will not refund their vouchers and they expect the customers to lose what they paid - Middle Eastern Near Me - Plano, Texas

My oh my! I'm so happy we found an authentic Yemeni place here. We are used to amazing authentic Yemeni food in Brooklyn and this place was the perfect fit for our Yemeni food cravings. We got the lamb haneeth and chicken zirbeean. I can't rate one over the other, because both were amazing. They come with their own tomatoe based sauces. Plenty of seating and they have an enclosed family / Arabian floor seating which is really cool. We went Friday night and it was pretty busy so account for that. Tip: We got a lamb broth soup and spread it over the lamb haneeth rice and it just made the meal so yummy and juicy. read more

The service was quite quick when you put in a time you will arrive they make it fresh. The taste was full and light but nothing was bland. The rice was cooked to perfection and was well seasoned without it being overly salty. The seasoning on the chicken was well coated though some parts of the chicken meat itself were a bit dry but it could be due to it being lean. read more

I've gone back to try the Hanith Lamb and in my opinion the Mandi is better. Both are good, the Hanith has more seasoning but that seasoning tastes mostly peppery and for me that just isn't quite as enjoyable as the Mandi. I understand why people might like it more with chicken--if you like peppery chicken dishes, of course that would work. I'll update again when I get to try other items but so far the Mandi Lamb is the winner. read more

This is my second visit to the restaurant. It's good to see the food has maintained a level of excellence. The food is very good as well as the portion sizes. Looking forward to visiting again when in town. read more

Solid Yemeni food. Everything we ate was delicious. Would recommend the grilled chicken which was the best thing we tried. Definitely worth a try. read more

If want try yemeni food this the right place to enjoy mendi lambs, but i am telling you once you try you never to stop going there.

I want to leave this restaurant 5 stars but unfortunately their service is not good at all. Their food is great, but it's not always the same, so their consistency maintaining the same taste will vary. The vibes are great as far as sitting down on the floor with curtains giving you utmost privacy... Any restaurant I review here more than 2 stars means iv been to the establishment multiple times. I truly think this cuisine joint can be a gemstone if they took it more seriously since there is no competition for yemenise cuisines. read more

Chicken, Lamb, and rice is so flavorful - highly recommend. Ambiance is homey and nice on the inside, has a seating corner with Yemeni culture and feel. read more

Amazing food! Service was great and had good Recommendations! Sat in traditional seating with a large party and had fun in that area.

This is a great place for the food. As you walk in and see a filled room with plastic sheets covering the table you know it's either going to be terrible or authentic. Fortunately it is clearly the latter. The food was excellent and prices were good for dishes that can be shared "family style". We really enjoyed it. It is not a western style restaurant. I gather it is a Yemeni restaurant. But wow! The flavors popped and the quality of dishes was excellent. Be ready for a fun cross cultural experience. No alcohol, for example. We asked if BYOB was acceptable but felt it was not, even though they did not want to say no. Rustic place. Good people, good food. Will definitely be back. read more

Better than some mandi places I've had in the GCC! The food quality and flavors are authentic and the meat is fall off the bone tender. You cannot go wrong here. Service is just ok and if you have a large enough group you can sit in the floor seating areas read more
