Reviews for Mandi Afandi in East York, ON
After a short trip to the Costo nearby ended up here for dinner. I was pleased to see their single serve menu options for... individuals termed as Mini Plates and prices are extremely modest. I ordered the Madhbi Chicken Mini Plate which came withextremely tender grilled chicken on a bed of flavoured rice, fried onions along with a bowl of lentil soup on the side, freshYogurt Raita and Tomato salsa. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal, the portion was just right and taste was very satisfying. Theservers were also very kind and quick ! Would love to comeback for more. Read more

Most excellent Yemeni food. Don't know how they make their chicken and their lamb fall off the bone soft. Chicken was good but... the lamb takes the cake for me, grilled, stewed, steamed, they got it all. Lentil soup comes with the platter. Counter orderthen sit yourself. Free coffee and sweet dates at the door. Glad they play Arabian music instead of just the radio. Thank youfor my introduction to Yemeni cuisine! Read more
We had chicken and lamb Mandi. The Lamb mandi was good comparing to the chicken mandi because lamb was very juicy and fresh.... When you eat the first bite of lamb you will get to know it?s fresh quality meat. I also was told that the chicken wasn?t havingmuch spice flavour from my friends who tried chicken mandi. For the lamb, since the fresh yummy lamb taste is overpowering Ididn?t really mind about the spice/flavour. Can?t stress enough but lamb was delicious. The reason why I gave 4 star because,the mandi rice isn?t up to the expectation. If you are a mandi fan, you would want to have flavourful rice which can even beeaten without the meat. But here the rice wasn?t very flavourful, just average. Lentil soup is free and appreciate the serverwho first brought us the lentil soup before the main order. The presentation was great, rice topped with chicken and friedonions accompanied with raita and spicy chutney. They even have old Arabic pepsi bottles which will make you feel nostalgic ifyou are from the Middle East. They also have Vimto drink for 6 dollars. And at the counter they had dates and Arabic coffeekept for the breaking the fasting period (Ramadan time) which was the deal breaker for me. I have never had such yummy dates inmy life tbh. The customer service is really good, we were a group of ten and sat their after food for more than two hours. Read more
They say they have the juiciest lamb and they are absolutely right! We tried the zurbian lamb and it was amazing the meat was so... soft and juicy. ???? The ambiance of the restaurant was very nice there was free coffee and dates. We really enjoyed the coffeeafter lunch. Dessert was ok but the zurbian lamb is a must try! Read more
First time coming here and the food a delight, little pricey but the quality is there. Chicken was well seasoned and very... tender, lamb was delicious. The lentil soup that came with the combo was also amazing. Will be coming back when I?m in the area. Read more
