| - Important Tip: Bring at least 2-3 other friends/family members if you're planning to dine IN Almonasabah!
There are a few tables, but their menu is better suited for groups. Their Chicken/Lamb Mendi, similar to Biryani, but not as many spices, is the only item on the menu AND it's absolutely HUGE.
Behind my friend and I was a table of 5 men...eating the same portion as my table of 2 chicks, so hopefully that gives you an idea of the portion sizes. Price is in line with the portion. Although both meats were very tender and flavourful, I thought the Lamb stood out more. I loved the addition of the fried onions, almond pieces, & raisins in the basmati rice. Delicious!
Unless you're in a group, I wouldn't recommend ordering the half Chicken/Lamb. Staff suggested this option and it was my mistake to not ask for the price until time of checkout. Basically it was $17.99 (price of lamb) + $14.99 (half of chicken), so between 2ppl, we basically paid ~$40...definitely better if there was more than just 2ppl sharing. :S
Staff was very friendly! Food came out shortly after ordering. There was a nice complimentary tea, made in-house, to enjoy with your Mandi.
Wished that there was more stuff on the menu, especially the option of having some kinda ethnic dessert. Options available were for catering.
Wouldn't hesitate to go back again...when I have a group together!
