Yemen Grill

18 Essential Restaurants in Raleigh, North Carolina

"Yemen Arab Restaurant does an excellent job of introducing diners to flavors they might not be familiar with. There are well-known Middle Eastern offerings like baba ganoush, hummus, and koftas, but also Yemeni specialties like lahem haneeth (roasted lamb in a Yemeni spice blend), zurbian dajaj (a tomatoey chicken saute), and a variety of saltahs, a Yemeni dish of vegetables and a whipped fenugreek and lamb sauce served boiling hot in a clay dish. The restaurant offers varieties with fish, chicken, and shredded lamb, and all come with fresh bread for dipping." - Matt Lardie
