" Al Jazeera is a delightful hidden gem. I stumbled upon it while walking in the area and decided to give it a shot, and I am so glad I did! The lamb over rice was by far the best I’ve ever had outside of my grandmother's kitchen. The portions were impressive too, perfect for sharing or indulging solo. Just be aware that the restaurant can get a bit cramped when full. Overall, an amazing spot for authentic cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered their chicken mandy alongside a lamb dish for dinner, and I was thoroughly impressed. Everything tasted so authentic, just like the meals I had while traveling. Portions were more than enough, and I couldn't help but eat every bite. Service was average, but the food definitely compensates for it. I would definitely recommend it to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" The taste of home! I was so homesick and decided to go to Al Jazeera after hearing about it from a friend. I was thrilled to have their lamb dishes again. They taste just like my mom’s cooking! The rustic vibe makes it feel more authentic too, which I love. Make sure to check out their soup, it's a perfect appetizer! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a wonderful dining experience! The lamb mandy was so rich and flavorful, and the portion sizes were great. The atmosphere is modest but has a nice vibe. They do need to improve on the cleanliness; the tables were a bit sticky when we got there. Overall, it’s an excellent spot if you're looking for authentic Yemeni cuisine at reasonable prices. Will definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't stop raving about this restaurant! The lamb and rice dishes brought back so many memories. The flavors were spot on, and the portion sizes were generous enough to share. It was a little busy when we arrived, but the staff was friendly, and the wait was worth it. If you appreciate authentic cuisines and hearty meals, Al Jazeera is definitely worth a visit!

" Al Jazeera is an incredible place for authentic Yemeni flavors. I recently tried their entire lamb menu and was blown away by the diversity of tastes and the quality of the food. The service was a bit chaotic, which is why I gave it a lower score in that category, but the staff was definitely friendly. Don't let service issues deter you; the food is worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Al Jazeera, especially after hearing rave reviews about their lamb mandi. I went there with my family, and everyone loved the food. The service was friendly but also a bit slow. I can't complain much because the food was worth the wait. Be prepared for generous portions and a unique taste that you won’t find at many places running on a tight theme. Will definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)
