Fabulous service and food! We needed to rent a private room for lunch for our family following my daughter’s baptism (didn’t want to interrupt other diners if she was cranky) and had a hard time finding a restaurant that would book a room for a party of 10, however Sahara was kindly willing to accommodate. The setup when we arrived to lunch was phenomenal and we were treated like royalty. The food was some of the best Mediterranean I’ve ever had and portions were generous....

I found this gem of a restaurant last year while visiting for Thanksgiving. I loved how fresh everything tastes, and that they are transitioning to be seed oil-free.
I was even more impressed by how they were able to make all their dishes seed oil-free upon request. Overall, I love this place and will continue to go back to them!

Excellent customer service. We arrived before the dinner rush, were seated immediately, orders taken and our meals served within 15 minutes. Food portions were substantial. The Turkish coffee was well, “Turkish coffee” Need I say more.
