YS Mandi Restaurant

Barrett Nikolaus

If you're craving authentic Middle Eastern flavors, YS Mandi Restaurant in Tempe is a gem! ✨ I tried their Chicken Mandi, and it was simply divine - perfectly spiced with saffron and served alongside fragrant rice. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it a nice spot for family dinners.

Though the service was a bit slow during peak hours, the delicious food made up for it. Don't miss their freshly baked pita and homemade hummus! I'll definitely be back for more... 🌟

I recently moved to Phoenix and found this place great for Mediterranean food.
The restaurant board has been changed as it’s now merged and serves Ethiopian 🇪🇹 food as well. We tried the lamb Mandi which can easily serve for 2 and a chicken shawarma wrap.
Both were flavorful.
The green sauce made at the house served with Mandi was my favorite.
The prices are very reasonable.
The restaurant entrance is small but has got ample seating space.
There is plenty of parking as well in the complex.
A must try place for Mediterranean food lovers.

This place deserves all 5 stars.
Best food I've ever had in my life.
First of all, quality is AMAZING.
Flavors are absolutely phenomenal.
Price point is perfect.
Portions are HUGE.
I'm visiting from Chicago and I've had middle eastern food and south Asian food from many places there and also while traveling in the middle east and US.
I literally asked the chef to open in Chicago.
I'm going to miss this food so much.
She's a master chef.
And the RANGE is amazing, they offer Middle Eastern, Ethiopian and South Asian food, and all cuisines are SPOT ON.
Food also comes fresh and quick.
Can't say anything bad about this place.
Do not hesitate to come here at all, you won't regret it!! The staff there is so so so sweet, they deserve all the good business coming their way. Pictured: chicken shawarma plate, Hummus with chicken.
Also tried the mansaf with lamb which was amazing.

I've picked up orders from here about four or five times but I won't buy from here again.
The place doesn't look clean but the times I've ordered from here I've enjoyed the food.
They forgot my vegetable rice Biryani plate order and I didn't find out until I got home.
I called and they said to come back tomorrow.
This is what I got when I went, old mushy wet rice that tasted awful because they added so much spices to mask that it's probably going bad! This is why other reviews said that they got food poisoning from eating here! This is really terrible that they would serve this type of food to paying customers.
I won't ever go back.
