Truly authentic Yemeni cuisine with a mix of western and local favourites... We came expecting to try out the new place with little expectations, but was quickly blown away as each dish was served...
The mandi and kabsah tasted exactly like how they should and the lamb and chicken dishes were extremely tender, cooked to perfection AND falls off the bones, nicely... Meanwhile the zahawiq (arab salsa) complemented the rice and meat, perfectly!
I cannot rave about this place enough, but don't just take my word for it, head on over and taste it for yourselves!
FINALLY a truly authentic Arab cuisine spot that serves above average food! Kudos to the team at Al Saaed! Keep up the good job!

Very nice food. Tried the succulent lamb ribs, breaded chicken with flooded cheese and the delicious lamb shank mud pot mandi rice. The lamb is so tender. It's really very tasty and delicious. Would come back again and recommend to my friends and relatives.
We tried the Lambshank Mehndi Rice. The lamb is soft tender & juicy which complements the great quality mehndi rice. The raspberry hot tea was mesmerizing, calming the soul. Whether your having lunch or just relaxing over a cup of coffee, this place is highly recommended!
Had an amazing lunch yesterday! My friend and I started off with The Middle E Salad. It was so light and fresh that I couldn’t stop eating.
Next I had the Arabian grilled chicken. I loved the interplay of textures - crispy skin against soft meat. Just wow! I found it even better with some lemon juice drizzled on top.
The last two dishes we shared were the lamb shank mundi and hummus. I love how silky the hummus was! As for the mundi, I can definitely see why it was a hit the day before. Really lovely especially when you have take the perfect mouthful! The trick is to mix the rice with some of the meat and the given condiments.
