Alyemen Alsaeed Manchester مطعم اليمن السعيد مانشستر

Flawless experience from start to finish. They're open early to serve Breakfast, however, Lunch starts at 1pm. We showed up a little early and only found out when we asked for one of the mains. We had about an hour to kill and we were contemplating going elsewhere. We're glad we didn't as the food was both delightful and generous in size. Before the food order arrived, we indulged in the complimentary Lamb Soup. It tasted similar to a Pakistani Lamb Stew, but there were some spices in there that I didn't recognise. Although different, it was very delicious. As for the mains, we ordered the Mix Grill for one (with Chips) and the Half Al Faham Chicken with Rice. The Kebabs, Wings and Chicken Tikka pieces were exceptional. They weren't overly spicy, which was welcome as the taste of the meat really came through. The Al Faham Chicken and Rice shone with the Tomato sauce and Onions. The latter we were given free of charge (I asked for a separate plate after we had already ordered our food), which was a nice gesture. I know Onions are not an expensive item, but small gestures like that can make a big difference. Service was warm (just like the Lamb Soup) and prices were extremely reasonable. The seating area is nice and cosy with some outdoor seating, if you're that way inclined. This is now one of our favourite spots on Wilmslow Road, sharing that accolade with some of our other favourites like Walnut Persian and My Peshawar.

Came here with friends to try Yemeni cuisine. Here offers more traditional Yemeni dishes compared to other places. We ordered Mandi Lamb, Mugalgal Lamb, and Agdah Chicken which are served with Mulawah Yemeni Bread. Free soup. Food came at a reasonable time. Portion was decent for one person but just enough for sharing. Flavoursome. We all enjoyed the Agdah Chicken and Mulawah Yemeni Bread the most. The dish and the bread reminded us of our Malaysian ayam masak merah and our roti. Highly recommend these dishes. We saw the next table beside us having Fahsa Chicken and it smelt so good, will try it next time. All the staff were friendly and attentive. Highly recommend this place for authentic Yemeni food. Will visit again. Thank you!

We had a great experience at Alyemen Alsaeed restaurant. Everything was excellent, from the food to the atmosphere. A special mention goes to our waiter Habib, who was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome throughout our visit. We came all the way from Aberdeen to enjoy Manchester City, and dining here was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. The food was delicious and well prepared, free soup, and the service made it even better. Highly recommended — we would definitely come back again!
