Socotra Restaurant Traditional Yemeni & Arabic Cuisine

There's not one bad thing on the menu so far! Delicious food & great portions. Service is top notch also. Fatima is very friendly and always willing to give suggestions. Ive had them a few times through pickup and dine in and the food is always fresh and good. Can't wait to go back again. All fantastic dishes so far: Fahsah lamb Aqdah lamb Chicken Madghout Baba Ghanoush Grilled platters

The meat fahsa was AMAZING, I was told it is their best seller and I certainly see why!! It was really well seasoned and juicy, paired perfectly with the bread & hummus. I had the spicy sauce on the side, along with hummus and a dessert later. Everything was great, our waitress Fatima was super sweet! The customer service was amazing, I usually go to their family location in Newport News but I love this location in Hampton now!! The inside also looks great , highly suggest everything there! I tried a few drinks from the cooler and they were really good too!

This is one of those do not pass up kind of restaurants. They get 10⭐️ from us. The food was amazing. The Hummus was smooth and creamy so was the Baba Ghanoush. They have the freshest Falafel. The Meat (Lamb) and Tuna Fahsha AMAZING. And let's talk about the grilled lamb chops and chicken...honey I don't know what kind of wood they use on that grill but the smoke flavor in that meat is deliciously different. The warm cinnamon and cardamom flavor in the rice. Mannnn just go...we were just ordering things just to try it and every single dish was awesome.

The food was amazing. the grilled lamb chops and chicken is deliciously different. The warm cinnamon and cardamom flavor in the rice is really awesome. Definitely worth it.

The Adeni tea was delicious, and the food was so fresh, flavorful, and tasted like delicious home cooking. I loved the slow cooked lamb, and you can’t beat the classic middle eastern hospitality- I will be back!
