Ys Mandi - Tempe
Ys Mandi
Description
Tucked near ASU, this no‑frills family restaurant offers bold Yemeni and African dishes—chicken biryani, lamb and goat mandi, falafel and hummus—with generous portions, warm service and floor-or-table seating. Loyal diners praise authentic, well‑spiced flavors and hearty value, but multiple serious sanitation and pricing concerns have been reported (flies/roaches, dirty surfaces, possible food‑safety issues and menu price discrepancies). Consider it for flavorful, homey meals but confirm cleanliness and final prices before dining.

**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
I genuinely adore this place! The food is exquisite, and the customer service is outstanding.
My partner is a picky eater, but he absolutely loves this restaurant, and so do I. It has quickly become my favorite place to dine.
