Seiyun Mandi Restaurant — Deira
Cues
Order the fahsa (Yemeni stew) as a starter — it's not on the English menu but available if requested. The restaurant uses traditional tandoor ovens, so timing varies; call 30 minutes ahead to have your mandi ready upon arrival.
Insider Cue
Yemeni mandi specialist — slow-cooked lamb and chicken over rice. One of the most authentic Yemeni dining experiences in Dubai. The whole lamb mandi is for groups of four or more and worth ordering. Very affordable.

Description
Head here for no-nonsense Yemeni food that'll wreck your budget—the lamb haneeth is slow-roasted perfection and costs less than a cappuccino elsewhere in Dubai. The spiced rice and fresh breads come out constantly, and you'll find yourself wedged at a communal table with construction workers and locals who know what's up.
