Best WLM Reviews

This place is such a gem. I loved it. They have Halal food and they make it good.
The price is great for the amount, absolutely worth it ???? ????
The menu is short and simple, but everything is made well.
We ordered Goat with rice and Beef with Ugali. It was so delicious. Later we also got a mango lassi. We also discovered that they sell samosas but it was nowhere on the menu. If you are a regular you probably know but were were there for the first time.
They are probably going through a renovation or something because the widows were missing? Idk n idc. The food was so good. I want to go again.
We were visiting KC and wanted an early lunch. We looked up halal restaurants close by and this popped up. After seeing the low amount of Google reviews we thought let’s try with zero expectations. We walked in and asked the owner at the counter what he recommended, he said lunch was too early to serve at 11am and he recommended getting breakfast, and he’ll serve us what he had. Told us to try the chai also. We agreed and were delighted. The chai was spicy and hot, the ginger in it was something we never had, it was good. For breakfast we got the meat stew with injira was pretty good, heavy but delicious.
I can see why people may not like the service or have high expectations. My advice is to just try it, be patient and change your views on how you think a restaurant should operate. The food is delicious…. Just soak up the environment and culture
Great food. I love the spicy beef samosas. Chicken suqaar with their version of biryani rice was delicious and a generous portion. Will definitely go back.
Very generous portions. Chapati is a huge n filling. Goat and chicken was flavorful. Ordering takes a while but once ordered food is out quick
This is like home it's the best place to be, it doesn't matter your culture but if you try the food that builds us on top of that it's healthy, I'm not surprised seeing many west Africans ???????? lined up on the que, ally friends talk about Yasmeen, in the future need close time adjustment to at least 10pm
Sweet East African food , so amazing it's all time best spot, when you eat here you will never regret for the rest of your life and forget about the West African food, the food at Yasmeen is 1000% healthy
I don't really like the location of this restaurant but the food was amazing! Prices are affordable and portions are so generous that you can have enough for at least 2 meals(if you order 1 portion for yourself). I didn't like the mango juice as it felt watered down but other than that the tea and the food were phenomenal.
We went as a group and ordered the fish, lamb, goat and chicken suqaar. My favourite part? The green sauce that came with the food.
It's kinda confusing at first given the area, but some customers helped out. A customer rang the bell at the order counter, then a guy came out from the kitchen, but he walked past me and started cleaning the tables, then he came to the kitchen talking to someone else while pointing at me, most conversations weren't in English. Then maybe the chef/owner came out from the kitchen, talked in English and cleared out my confusion. I got my food a few minutes after ordering, the chef/owner skipped my tips. Food was huge portion and delicious. The rice and chicken was a bit charred and very flavorful. The green sauce was very good, it's spicy but I only felt the spice at the back of my throat, with the lime to freshen up and balance out all the spices.
