Sahara Restaurant is a beloved eatery in Pasadena, serving authentic and delicious Middle Eastern cuisine. The menu offers a range of options, including chicken kabobs, chicken kebab, and pilaf rice with hummus, all made with love and care by the kind and dedicated cooks. The restaurant's family-style dining area is cozy, and their take-out options are also popular. Standout dishes include the tzatziki sauce, hummus, tabbouleh, and baba ghanoush. Sahara Restaurant is a hidden gem that has earned a loyal following for its mouthwatering food and warm hospitality.
The food is delicious, consistent, and always satisfying. The portion sizes and flavor cannot be beat. The shawarma plate includes a hearty serving of meat, saffron rice, onion, hummus, tabbouleh, and pita bread. The atmosphere gives a very casual semi fast food vibe, but the food is quality. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, treating everyone like family. The skewers are cooked over charcoal, giving them a nice smoky flavor, and the meats are juicy and tender. The rice is buttery and perfect.
