My wife has known of this place for sometime. She shops at TJMaxx and says sometimes she walks out and smells something really good but can’t figure out where it comes from. It’s Yemeni Grill. Recently she saw a Tiktok video and put two and two together. We have to try it. I’m still amazed at all of the great food Aurora has to offer. It’s truly remarkable. This place is a hidden gem in a shopping center it doesn’t really belong. It’s stuck between a bunch of big clothes stores, and seems a little out of place. But it’s truly wonderful, and it’s actually pretty cheap. It was me and my wife and son. 2 drinks, an appetizer, a sandwich and an entree and it was $58 dollars. That is insane in 2025. You need to go to this place. They are doing it right.

Small cozy little restaurant. Food was not only delicious, it was beautifully presented and a lot of it. I ordered Mandi chicken and it was so good. Chicken was juicy and well seasoned. Everything we ate was delicious. Service was not overly friendly but they were efficient and everything is cooked to order. You can watch them put your food together while you wait. Enjoyed this and will be back.

Nice little secret treasure hole in Aurora. This place is a real gem. The people working there make you feel very welcome, the yemeni way. The food is what will keep you coming this. It's tasty, authentic and has its own unic touch that other "middle eastern places" don't have. I especially like their tea with mint, I don't even bother with a glass, I take it by the kettle. Sheesh tawook is my go to.

Absolutely Amazing Experience at Yemen Grill! We came all the way from Texas and were blown away by the hospitality and service at Yemen Grill. The staff was incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home. The food was authentic and delicious, and to top it all off—they surprised me with a free dessert! You don’t find that kind of generosity everywhere. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favor and check them out ASAP. 10/10 highly recommend!

Came to this restaurant for a lunch and was pleased by the friendly service, variety of food choices on the menu, delicious food, and reasonable prices. The chicken kebab was great and though they were out of eggplant when we visited, the hummus tasted very good. Lots of tables and seats inside the restaurant, with free but somewhat hard to find parking, as the lot is shared with several other businesses in the same shipping plaza. Overall a great experience. Recommended!

This place was very good and I will definitely return. The cucumber yogurt dip was so good we forced ourselves to stop eating before the food came out. I would recommend saving some as it paired so well with the meat. We ordered the grilled plates one lamb and the 1/2 lamb & 1/2 chicken. Everything was super flavorful, only thing left on our plates was rice
