We ordered half mix mandi platter which had mostly chicken and a piece of mutton. Taste was good especially malai boti and mutton piece. Service was not very good thats why I deducted a star, otherwise food is 4.5.

Had half chicken mandi todayWhat an amazing experience it is. The soup is delicious and is an amazing addition considering the upcoming season. No doubt you serve the best mandi rice , every bite of rice is so juicy, the delivery was quick and delivery boy is well mannered. 5 stars for everything keep it up

Its been a year since Im looking for a good sajji in islamabad/rwp. Tried their chicken madbhi as an alternative for sajji and wasnt disappointed. Rice and raita were very tasty. Chicken quantity wasnt good considering the 470 price tag but other than that, i was really satisfied.

Authentic taste of mandi. I was amazed by the quality and quantity I got in just 470 rupees(quarter chicken mandi) . Loved every bit of it. Will be ordering again. Highly recommended for mandi lovers in the twin cities.

Best Mandi experience in twin cities, located a bit far from centre in overly crowded bazar of PWD but good think is they provide delivery at very reasonable rates.Sitting facility is good for families as well.Mutton mandi is best amongst all.

The place was expensive without any logical reason from the staff... They failed to explained why a normal rice with chicken which we can find all over with the name of biryani and pulao can cost between 200-300 per person and why their chicken Mandi is almost 500 (i.e. 470) per person. I couldnt swallow this difference in prices unfortunately.

Best mandi Ive had in Pakistan so far! Although no place in Islamabad atleast is close enough to the middle easten taste, Yumto is however the closest I got to thr actual tase. Ive tried matam mandi at blue area and bahria enclave, none could compete with Yumto.

The sitting is outdoor and ambiance isnt great but the food is very very good and the quantity is amazing. I havent had the authentic mandi but this was pretty good. The rice were well seasoned and were served with slides of onions, tomatoes and green chili. 450 for a chicken Mandi and 570 for mutton Mandi, more than enough for 1 person. Serving time is approximately 20 minutes

In regards to mandi and khabsa. I havent eaten mandi. However, a friend did, and I ate khabsa (which is chicken mandi). And let me tell you something lads. It was one of the finest khabsas Ive eaten.

Anyone who has ever been to a gulf state would definitely recognize these rice. This started as a small place but as they have grown they have taken the space right next to them and now Im a lot better than what they started with.What can I say they have a great mandi . Then for the people who do not know what that is... I would like all of you to try those rice with your own choice of meat which can be chicken or mutton.They have a very unique way of delivering the rice in a utensil made of clay. And they also have other BBQ items but the main thing is that they have this Arabian recipe which is good and it really creates a nostalgic effect for the people who have ever lived in a gulf State and had those rice.

Product: Quarter Mutton MandiPlace: Yumto Pak, PWD, The other side of Islamabad.Price: Rs.560 per plateIt was quite refreshing to find a place serving Mandi in Islamabad. The meat was well cooked and tender, just the way it should be. The rice lacked the traditional Arabic Mandi spices and gave a Pulao vibe. Quantity is very good and one plate might be sufficient for 2 people who dont eat much. Much work needs to be done on the sitting place as well. There was no electricity when we went there and had to sit outside.Recommended!

Heard a lot of positive review about this place so I visited it along with my friends (I would suggest to reserve a table beforehand). We ordered Chicken Mandi and Mutton Mandi. They served it in under 10 minutes. Both were well cooked, and had a different taste than what you usually have in other restaurants. I would surely visit this place again for their Mutton Mandi specifically. They also provide home delivery service.

Having spent 15 years in Arab, I can safely say that this is as close as it gets to Arabic Mandi. The taste is absolutely identical and everything was on point. Definitely recommend this to someone craving an authentic Mandi in the twin cities. Couple this with their Majlis seating experience, this was spot on.

It is not Mandi at all it is a Pakistani palou. I spent my whole life in gulf I know Saudi mandi, Emirati, Yemeni and ..................etc. for me it is kind of cheating with your customers. I do not recommend this mandi at all. I can make ten times better than them. Just went there to see if it tastes like the authentic one, No way.

The best Arabic cuisine is townNobody should miss its Mandi. I tried for once and I eat it frequently now. There mandi is their speciality and they are make it extraordinarily as well.Haven’t tried anything else but this one is the best. They have changed their seating arrangement and now they have floor arrangement with cushions and small curtained rooms like Arabian cultures have.Those who have arthritis pains will find it problematic to sit on floor but otherwise the place is cosy and properly carpeted and for privacy they have curtained and covered the rooms properly.They also deliver the foods and their delivery presentation is by far the greatest.
