Restaurant · Cardiff
Yemeni cooking in Splott that parents keep coming back to — one family admits to two visits in a single week. The lamb mandi is the thing to order: meat that falls off the bone, rice people rave about, and portions generous enough that a child can share a plate rather than need their own. There's a kids' menu and high chairs if you'd rather not, plus free parking, which spares you the Cardiff circling. Food often arrives fast, though service can slow when it's busy — worth knowing if you've got a hungry toddler, so don't come in a rush. The room is clean and welcoming, with warm decor, music playing and spotless toilets (Muslim showers available). The team are patient and genuinely pleased to see you. Skip the juices if you're fussy — opinions on those are split.
