A new halal, Arabian and Middle Eastern spot has made its debut in the neighborhood. Called Yemen & Gulf Restaurant, the fresh addition is located at 401 S. Broadway in Fells Point.

It features favorite dishes from the country and region, like lamb fahsa (stew), kibdah (lamb liver with onions and peppers), fasoolia (a Lebanese kind of chili) and shakshouka. Sides include clay oven bread and salads.

With a five-star rating out of four reviews on Yelp so far, Yemen & Gulf Restaurant is getting a warm welcome so far.

Ellen R., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on June 21, wrote, "The lamb broth, which comes with most dishes, is light in lamb flavor and heavy in curry-type seasonings.  Salad was of the simple iceberg lettuce variety with fresh chopped up veggies as dressing. We had fasoolia (#7), a bean dish, which started with a slightly charred taste, but ended up being lick your plate clean. "

Yelper Cory C. added, “I ended up getting the Lamb Haneeth which was served with soup and a small salad. Let me tell you guys, the lamb was so tender that it fell off the bones! The rice and potatoes were seasoned perfectly and their house made salad dressing was excellent too! ”
