Excellent place to eat, quality price, we ordered a shawarma and it was really delicious, also a special meat dish in a casserole typical of theirs, he told me "the BEST" and so it is!!! Great! The bread cakes are made in a typical oven of theirs and I was recording how they did it in Chinese, a spectacular service, with places like this it is a pleasure to travel and see new things. At the end they invite us to tea and Arab sweets.

From Sana'a El Yemen you can watch the chefs prepare your dishes and watch a special bread being cooked in the tandoor oven which is served to you while still hot at your table.
They offer various Middle Eastern dishes based on rice, dried fruit, spices, chicken, lamb and camel meat, cheese and eggs, each more interesting than the other.
Prices are low for the quality of the food. We spent 38 Jod for four of us sharing 3 main courses, two starters, water and Rosella fresh juice made with cherries, hibiscus and mint leaves.
Having really enjoyed the dinner, they offered me a further portion of one of the three dishes and at the end also some delicious Middle Eastern desserts.

Without wanting to get carried away but so that you understand that this is the opinion of a catering professional in France for 15 years. We are 4 friends/family who visited Petra, and once arrived we looked for a nice but above all typical restaurant and we had the pleasure of being received by the owner of the place and his very friendly employees, we were welcomed in a magnificent and rustic setting of the region, we then discovered a large menu of traditional dishes, each of the dishes and accompaniments are in the details, the decoration the taste, the kindness of the staff is remarkable, they will do everything they can to make you feel comfortable and meet your needs. Hygiene is impeccable. Let's talk about prices and promotions, 2 evenings in a row we ate there and we enjoyed new dishes, the plates are colossal and the prices very reasonable. For one dish each (because it's difficult to eat more) with aperitifs and bottle of water we got away with no more than 40JD which represents around 46€ in total. You can go there with your eyes closed!! Thanks again to them

Very kind and welcoming staff, they followed us from start to finish with great precision. We ate a very tasty soup accompanied by their typical bread made on the spot. Highly recommended especially for the quality/price ratio

The restaurant is very spacious indoors and has a large terrace that is well lit in the evening. The meal can be prepared in front of you if you go to see them. The bread is offered and incredibly good prepared and baked in front of you. Dessert and cups of tea were offered to us! The servers are very kind and smiling. What we eat is extraordinary good I recommend the Sanya vegetables which are vegetarian. As for meats, I advise you to take the chicken Shawerma. The prices are not expensive, they vary between 2 and 10 JD. The dishes are well served, take 3 dishes for 4 and we ate well.

We had dinner here tonight on the recommendation of Riksja Family. Last night we were at Moms Recipe, which was okay, but this was a really different experience.
We received a super friendly welcome and were given a table in the then quiet restaurant. The staff was attentive, polite and joked with all four of us. The food was so delicious that our two young men, aged 8 and 10, finished their plates and tasted everything that was on the table!
No fries or burgers, just local food prepared in a delicious way.
We were given the leftover rice and bread filled with minced meat plus an extra loaf for the next day.
Of course we ended the meal with a cup of tea and tasty sweets.

So happy after the first dinner... we returned without a doubt the next evening. Typical restaurant with a beautiful veranda overlooking the busy Tourism Street, very kind and customer-focused staff, who explain in detail the various dishes of the local cuisine in English.
We tried the rice with chicken, lamb or camel in the various versions (Hanith, Zarbiani, Madhbi) as well as the inevitable falafel and hummus.
The freshly baked Arabic bread is exceptional... the baklava kindly offered at the end of the meal is delicious. Highly recommended!

We came to this place for dinner the night before visiting Petra.
We ate rice with lamb and grilled camel meat accompanied by typical sauces and the freshly made Arabic bread could not be missing. It was just amazing and melted in your mouth.
Very friendly staff, welcoming and always available for every request. I highly recommend this experience to taste typical dishes.

We dined 2 Yemeni dishes accompanied by bread cooked in front of us in this very pleasant restaurant. Very warm welcome, everything is prepared on time, and tea offered at the end of the meal. Everything was excellent, nothing to complain about. THANKS

We came here for dinner after a tiring day exploring Petra and in need of some hearty food - most certainly was the perfect choice! We were waited by Amer who was just a delight, genuine warmth to customers and was an absolute pleasure being served by him. Highly recommend the chicken mandi and the foul - absolutely delicious and the freshly made bread was divine! Wish we had more time to come back here and try more dishes! Thoroughly recommend, prices are also very fair, especially considering the portion size!

The food is fantastic, we tried the entire menu during our time here and every single dish was excellent! The staff speaks perfect English and gives good advice about the origin of the dishes and how they are prepared. All in all, a perfect place for a traditional Jordanian dinner, in my opinion the best restaurant in Jordan!

We loved our dining experience at Sana'a Yemen! During our entire long visit to Jordan, Israel and Palestine, this was without a doubt one of the best restaurants we had the privilege of eating at. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The person who helped us was Hammam (SIIIIIUUUUU!), who asked us to write the review in our language (we normally write in English). I hope you can read and translate this review, and send our greetings to Hasheem, the very humble and generous Yemeni cook, who we loved meeting. The next day he found us on the street during a break from work, and came to talk to us. We talked for a few minutes. He told us his story, which is very sad and moved us, and he offered us sweets. The food is very good, made to order, and very well presented. The space is pleasant. We recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Petra, especially if they want to try something a little different from traditional Jordanian food.

I ate at this restaurant after the day in Petra. The food is fabulous and the staff speak perfect English and even a little Italian! We ate mandi meat and sajya, with their bread freshly cooked in their typical oven! All really good
