Ys Mandi - Tempe

**Food Poisoning Warning** The restaurant was exceptionally dirty, and the meat served was actually black. There were flies and roaches everywhere. I really hope the health department conducts an unannounced inspection; I can only imagine how filthy it truly is. It felt like they were reheating old food to the point of being overcooked, just to give the impression that it was fresh and hot. Avoid this place unless you're looking to end up with a bad stomach and a lighter wallet.

I've been going to this restaurant for years, and their chicken biryani is by far my favorite dish in the world—no joke. I've tried about half of the menu, and everything has been fantastic, but the biryani really sets itself apart. I absolutely adore this place and the amazing staff. I intend to keep coming back for as long as I can. Food: 5/5

The food here is outstanding, but unfortunately, the menu prices were not honored. I enjoyed some excellent Yemeni dishes, including Chicken Shawarma with falafel and Lamb Mandi. The shitsu, yogurt, and tomato sauce added to the stellar meal overall. However, I was surprised to find that the Lamb Mandi was listed on the menu as being under $16, yet I was charged nearly $20 (excluding tip). When I inquired about the discrepancy, I was informed that lamb is more expensive. While that may be the case, the menu should accurately reflect the actual price. It feels unethical to charge more than what is listed, as this does not align with honest service. I should have been informed of the actual price before placing my order if it differed from what was stated on the menu.

The chef at this restaurant, Rhema, is incredibly skilled. The Goat Mandi is amazing! I truly adore this place.

Take my advice: I strongly recommend visiting The Mandi House on Apache Boulevard instead.
