The Food and Service was amazing you should definitely try the chicken sandwich it's really good !! Also the ambiance is nice and it's a great place also to get work done. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to try new cafes.

It’s hard to find a place that is bold enough to take the right stance and proudly exhibit that humanity. It feels like your money is going to the right place. On top of that, the food, strawberry hot chocolate, and the decor is amazing. 100%

Cute little cafe place! Got their four leaf lavender which was the matcha and lavender latte. So creamy and delicious! Also got the sunset Sammy and hash brown sandwich which both were so good. Cant go wrong with either one! Both had a side salad which the dressing was sweet but not too sweet! Wish I knew what it was so I can buy in the store. Definitely will be back again when im in town

I am updating to four stars based on the owner's thoughtful response, but I am also noting that the ounces per drink were not listed on Ubereats (see screenshots).

As you slowly stroll along the rolling incline and sound traffic of 4th Ave, this humble little Yemeni spot draws you in like a moth to a flame. Ive been meaning to set foot into this place for quite some time now, and I am so glad that I finally did. This is a cozy little cafe nestled in a long line of retail spaces on the very busy 4th Ave, right in the heart of Sunset park Brooklyn. Seating is strategically placed so the space feels open and cozy all at once. Staff is super friendly and ordering is fairly simple. I came in during the morning so I decided to give the chicken and waffles a try with a side of the spiced yemeni black tea which is my favorite. The tea was pretty standard, I wish they offered honey to add as a source of sweetness, but sugar did the trick. The chicken and waffles were pretty good, I liked that the chicken breading was seasoned properly, however, I will say that the amount of chicken was way less than what it should be. The chicken piece was also very thin and so in the frying process it became chewy and hard. The waffle was pretty standard, a little bit more on the doughy side, and I personally like crispy light textured waffles. The pairing was good with the syrup, but I do wish that they also offered some sort of softened butter on the side. I'm excited to try other things on their menu, especially the fried chicken sandwich and the lamb sandwich. If you're in the neighborhood, make sure to come check this place out.

Super happy we tried this place. They've been around for a while and I have always wanted to try. It looks like a small cafe when you walk in but they have more tables in the back as you continue in. They are an order and sit down establishment where they'll bring you your food, some tables also have have a qr code that you can order from I believe. We ordered a latte, sparkling berry lemonade, shakshuka, halloumi sticks, and a falafel wrap. We thoroughly enjoyed everything. The shakshuka is on the thinner side with a strong pepper flavor, definitely paired well with the grilled garlic sourdough that it came with. The falafel was great, wasn't too dry. The fries that came with the wrap were crispy and seasoned nicely. Loved the halloumi sticks/fries which I don't see on many menus. The workers were friendly and patient from beginning to end. The place itself was clean and had a variety of foods on the menu. My latte was made perfectly, strong espresso flavor, good temperature. The berry lemonade was refreshing. Yafa was great, we will definitely be back to try all their other offerings.

Super crowded today - could barely snag a table and I could see why! The food and service is phenomenal. On Friday - Sundays, they have a brunch menu. I got the lamb stew which turned out to be delicious albeit the portion size is a little small. The pieces of lamb and okra were my favorite. The bread that it came with (reminds me of a roti but less crispy and more doughy). We also got the chicken samboosas which were flavorful and delicious. The salsa / dip it came with a little spicy. As for the drinks: pink panther latte (can skip, although it looks so cute, it just kind of tastes milky) and the orange blossom lemonade was so so good. It was refreshing with a hint of floral at the end that goes so well together. I would come again just to order the lemonade. I have to come back again to try their chicken sandwich and lamb poutine fries.

They have a fantastic chicken sandwich. The coleslaw on the sandwich had a smoky favor to it that made it a 10/10. They have a large space in the back if you need to study or get some work done. The photos on the wall are so beautiful and make a quick stop here worth it.
