    Lamb Haneeth

    The food was great and service was on point the place also had home kind of feel to it I'll definitely be returning and recommending.

    It was only closed temporarily and so happy they are back in business! We get takeout every week and Rakan and the chef are delight! Best customer service ever and they follow all my dietary restrictions! We love love this place and hope it will always be successful. Cannot imagine nyc without it!

    Veggie Combo
    Vishnu G.

    I had the veggie combo, which came with hummus, baba ghanoush, a salad, and mushakal. There's also self-serve tea included with every meal. The flavors were all great - the dips were fresh and creamy, the bread was light and fluffy, and the mushakhal was warm and hearty. It's an enormous amount of food for $32 after tax and tip. Plus it's open 24 hours, so supremely convenient.

    Large Hadramout Tandoori Rashoosh Flatbread
    Justin T.

    Saturday night dinner; not crowded at all, tons of seating, spacious and clean; first time at this restaurant; the waitress was neither helpful nor enthusiastic when we inquired about recommendations or popular dishes- guess she was tired. We ordered the lamb haneeth and chicken fahsa; both were excellent. Rice and flatbread weee good. Lamb broth that came part of the entrees was delicious. No complaints.

    Huge flatbread included; Foul Moudammas; and 1/2 Kebsa Lamb (everything is enough for 3 people).

    Excellent food. Probably one of the best ful medames (seasoned fava beans) I've ever had. Generous portions and fantastic spice combinations on Mediterranean dishes you thought you knew. Staff is kind and knowledgeable. Must try.

    Hummus and falafel Chicken Ghallaba Vegetable and Egg Omelet
    Zalak A.

    This was my first time trying Yemen cuisine and it was super flavorful! The large lavash bread that came with the meal was soft and delicious, similar to naan. The egg dish was super flavorful and packed with veggies. The chicken was also great and great flavors. You can tell the hummus is homemade and they top it off with great quality EVOO. Highly recommend this spot for some flavorful dishes.

    It hard to review this place and not compare it to the upstairs more popular Yemen Cafe. The ladder has an actual lunch menu but is more pricey. The former or this place first off starts with better bread but has slightly worse soup. Personally I find the lamb haneeth to be barely worse here but I prefer the fahtah here. The spices are a bit better here. The mulikhai is a gloopy dish which is quite tasty and it has a good amount of lamb also unless you get the appetizer version. In terms of desser, the fatah with dates are fine but a lot worse than the one upstairs as I didn't think the texture was merged enough. If you want something lighter, get dessert across the street from Damascus (no not the overpriced Sahadi's) or Diwan next door (which also has very good Yemeni coffee/tea) or Malko Karkanni Bros for a pastry or two. Basically going to give this around the same rating as the place upstairs. You pay a little bit less here but there's pros and cons to both. I slightly prefer here but barely. 4.1.

    Fassoulia
    Alan S.

    I was excited to try Hadramout given what seemed to be an availability of more vegetarian options than the better-known Yemen Cafe on Atlantic Avenue. Our actual dining experience was mixed by dish. The highlights were the awe-inspiring flatbread - truly larger than your face - and the moulikhia, a well-spiced green vegetable stew which I have often seen on Egyptian menus but never encountered in other contexts. The combination of these two was excellent, even if rice might serve as a more suitable vehicle for moulikhia, generally speaking. Less successful was the fassoulia with hummus, a medley of kidney beans and caramelized onions that here was too dry and lacking in flavor. I had had much better versions of this in the Yemeni section of Hamtramck in Michigan. The cheese and honey platter was also mediocre, without any noteworthy characteristics.

    Lamb broth (delivery)
    Kathleen S.

    Having thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Yemen Cafe, my partner and I ordered delivery from Hadramout to try more Yemeni cuisine. I believe the name of the restaurant refers to the east-central region, on the Gulf of Aden, in Yemen. In the absence of being able to travel there pre- and during the pandemic to explore the cuisine and culture first-hand, trying Hadramout Restaurant's dishes seemed to be the best alternative. We ordered the lamb haneeth and the chicken ghallaba. Both came with a side salad, lamb broth, tandoor bread, and two sauces (one spicy, the other sweeter). The lamb haneeth was the indubitable winner. The slow-roasted lamb was so tender on the inside while well-spiced on the outside. Paired with the tandoor bread and lamb broth, this was splendid. I was less enthusiastic about the chicken ghallaba, which did not have a strong curry flavor. Perhaps I ordered poorly and should have opted for another chicken dish, either roasted or grilled. The diced chunks probably didn't highlight the best of Hadramout's technique or spice mixtures. Overall, we were able to get 1.5 meals out of the two entrees for two people. The bread was more than enough for two meals. I'm sure our meals would have been superior eaten fresh at the restaurant, but we were still glad to have experienced them, especially the lamb and tandoor breads, nevertheless.

    so tasty
    Selassie S.

    The gem i found from a recommendation of a friend. the well maintained establishment welcomed us in very openly. Our waitress Inni was delightful. She provided excellent service and the food came out with haste. the prices were afforadable and the Tea that was complimentary is so tasty they should bottle it up and sell it. i really recommend checking this spot . it's 24 hours! the flavor is worth any trip. thank you Inni.

    Soup comes along with the meal.

    MONEY · $32.00 Aqda Lamb (A flavorsome mixture of mashed haneeth lamb, and a vegetable dish, mushakal (potatoes, okra, eggplant, and squash), mixed with caramelized onions and scallions. Served with a Large Fresh Tandoori Rashoosh Flat-Bread. POSITIVE · They're open 24-7. · Authentic Yemenese food. · This dish was perfect to split between two people · The people were so nice. NEGATIVE · N/a IMPRESSION · Oh my f-ing goodness--this place was so awesome. We went twice in one day. After picking up food from another restaurant who had closed their doors to us, we decided to go to the closest restaurant to ask to see if they'd seat us if we bought an appetizer. The first place rejected us; Hadramout Restaurant did not!

    With the cook, Saleh

    This was the best Yemeni food I've ever had & possibly one of the best meals I ate on my whole trip through New York and Brooklyn. The waiter, Khalid was so kind and helpful. The cook is really Yemeni and so sweet- let me peek in the kitchen. If I'm ever in the Area again, this will be a must-stop10/10. We tried a lot of Middle Eastern food and I'm so glad we came here before we went home!!

    Got a TGTG order here. 11/10 I'd do it again…read more Brooklyn DOP actually originated as a pandemic business where my friend's personal trainer started baking pizzas outside of his Greenwood Heights apartment. When the hype got large enough, the owner decided to start a pizzeria and the rest is not history. This is one of the more worthwhile TGTG orders to me. Their pizza is SOOO perfectly crisp and charred, and actually is one of the closest pizzas that reminds me of the famous originals in Napoli.

    Overall 5/5: I am not a pizza person and don't eat dairy but wanted a nostalgic New York slice…read more This place definitely hit the spot. Expensive though, about $55 dollars for a vegan 18-inch Margherita pie with 3 toppings. Was it worth it for the experience? Yes. Would I recommend to someone who wanted to try it at least once for a good dairy-free pizza? Absolutely, I couldn't even tell this was vegan cheese. Would I get it again? Maybe (?) once in a while as a treat with price being the only barrier. Service 5/5: This was great. I came here the other day to inquire about their vegan pizza and just wanted to try a slice. The person found his manager to talk to me about this. They were super friendly and explained to me the situation. This location only sold vegan options in full pies and their other DOP Fast Life location does sell vegan slices, but they didn't try to push me to buy. I came back today and the staff today were also very welcoming. Ambiance 5/5: Rustic red brick interior with warm lighting. It was definitely bustling on a Friday night. Food 5/5: Delicious pizza. I do regret that I ate it cold after driving 30 minutes to pick it up so I did not get the full experience. But the crust was still crunchy. I do wish the toppings were a little heavier but the tomato chunks in the sauce tasted very fresh. A very classic New York style pizza and I couldn't even tell it wasn't real cheese. Vegan garlic knots were great too.

We come to sit, talk, share stories, our personal experiences and of course sip a fabulous beverage. I'm seeing this more and more as I visit fabulous coffee places.. Konditori, Villager, Bakeri, Hidden Grounds, and now Velvette Brew. First, the space: light, airy and I can imagine with their big windows, a sun soaked place on a sunny day. There are plenty of seats: tables and high top tables. Their menu offers a bit of everything from soup, sandwiches, quiche and pastries. There is a nice option of beverages hot/cold. Today, was a bit damp so I ordered a hot chai with bite size checkerboard cookies to dip. The barista was very pleasant and I found a seat while waiting for my chai. I see a lot of patrons working in laptops, some meeting up to talk and sip and even the barista chatted with a local patron. Love it! My chai was piping hot and absolutely delicious. The chai was frothy, rich, the black tea leaves infused with cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, sweetener, and milk. I savored every sip and complimented the barista. It is always great to find a new coffee place. I expect to be a loyal local at Velvette Brew. They also host music events and have a collaboration with Cry Baby Ice Cream. It is located in the heart of Park Slope. There are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. Velvette Brew 279 5th Avenue B63 to 3rd and 5th or R to Union Street, 10 minute walk.
