Halal Reviews for Queen of Sheba Paddington

Yemeni restaurant. Food was flavourful, tried Mandi, Haneth and Kabsa with baby chicken, well cooked, and generous portions, balanced tastes. Service was quick and done well. Menu was broad and covered most Yemni dishes, missing out on Zurbian. The soup was nice yet in a group of 5 some had much more actual spices than others, we felt inconsistenty in that. Generally proper authentic Yemeni vibes, the seats are a combination of chairs and Yemeni seats mixing bother traditios and modernity. The bill was as expected no added hidden costs, very transparent. Toilets clean and well maintained. Staff very polite, and makes you feel welcom. For a calm cozy Yemni vibes and authentic flavours recommended. Some reflections for the management. As a Yemni restaurant some dishes are new to the Western customers even some Arabs, would be great if the menu is somehow digital, would suggest keeping the paper menu additionally adding a QR code which includes images of the meals. Customers who are new to the culture have it difficult to see what they will get even with thorough explanation by the staff. I don't see this in Yemeni restaurant so you can stand out. Additionally with Google reviews becoming more important now I would suggest keeping the review QR code on the table with a single request for a review, so it becomes more genuine by the customers. Would be great to have the something in addition to the soup for starters, something small like a bread and a dip, expected from Arabic restaurants. See you soon review update via next visit 👍

: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing experience at Queen of Sheba Yemeni Restaurant. The owner personally served us and even gave us complimentary soup, which was a really nice touch and showed genuine hospitality. The service was outstanding from start to finish. The madfoon and lamb dish were absolutely delicious—full of flavour and cooked perfectly. The mint tea was also excellent and finished the meal off perfectly. Highly recommend this place for authentic Yemeni food and top-class service.

Treated like family! What an unforgettable experience! I visited Queen of Sheba with my mom and sister, and the hospitality was just incredible. From the moment we walked in out of the cold, we were welcomed warmly and immediately offered a lovely, complimentary lamb soup to warm us up.The food was absolutely delicious, and the portions were so generous. We left completely stuffed and happy! At the end of the meal, they even served us a fantastic tea on the house. The service was also impeccable; our waiter was an incredible human being who made us feel like family. He even refused to accept a tip, which speaks volumes about the genuine kindness of this place. We will always look back on this dinner fondly. I am honestly looking forward to coming back to London just to visit them again! ❤️

Food: The starters were excellent as the dishes were full of flavour and had a nice range of depth to them and we were able to get a number of different flavour profiles in all of them. However, when it came to the main that was more of a mixed bag. Due to it all being combined and cooked together, the range of cooking time unfortunately affected the dishes and the meat themselves but the flavour felt a bit one note as well sadly. Service: Ali was our host on the day we went and he was nice and enthusiastic being able to show good hosting energy throughout the meal. Sadly, the rest of the team messed up some of the orders that we had for drinks or food for one reason or another. Atmosphere: It was a decent atmosphere in the restaurant, a bit quiet but everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves on the day! There were great parts to this meal, but there were also unfortunately disappointing parts, if they are able to iron our some inconsistencies they'll do well!

You absolutely have to put this on the top of your list for Yemeni food. The service was brilliant and so lovely, they offered complimentary soup to start and tea to finish, which were so delicious. The interior is all made to look like a traditional Yemeni space and best of all, the food was absolutely perfect. The falafel, vine leaves, and main rice dishes were delicious and hit the spot. Portion sizes were huge and really good value for money. Super welcoming space and absolutely authentic. We will be back for sure
