Aurora Middle Eastern Dining

Overview/Description

Fresh & Authentic Yemeni Cuisine at its Finest

Welcome to Yemen Grill in Aurora, Colorado—your cozy Middle Eastern haven nestled at 2353 S. Havana Street. At our spot, we invite you to experience the rich flavors of Yemen in every dish—from tender kebabs to the star of the show: our unforgettable rice.

What We’re Serving

Here, you’ll find an array of mouthwatering dishes, from juicy lamb kebabs, shish tawook, and tekah lamb, to comforting stews like Fahsah and Oqda. Each entrée comes served on a bed of aromatic, perfectly seasoned rice — and trust us, this isn’t an afterthought. Many of our customers come “for the kebabs and stay for the rice.”

We also offer mezze plates like tabbouleh, fatteh, and grape leaves, plus seafood options for those looking for something lighter. Pair it all with a refreshing mango juice (a house favorite!) and you’ll be smiling before the first bite.

 What Makes Us Unique

• Rice with Purpose – At Yemen Grill, rice isn’t just a side; it’s central. We craft it with traditional spices and careful cooking to add depth and character to every dish.
• Authentic Yemeni Soul – We’re one of the few restaurants in the area focusing specifically on Yemeni cuisine, offering a fresh perspective amid the Mediterranean-heavy scene.
• Family-Driven Warmth – This is more than food—it’s heritage. When people think of Yemen, they often think of struggle. We aim to highlight its beauty and hospitality through every plate.
