Food here is simply legendary. Tasty, flavorful, original. Portions are so generous. How do they make so many different things in one truck and so delicious is incredible. Definitely my go-to spot when I am in Jersey.

Would definitely give 5* as food has always been good but recently service went down to ZERO.

I’ve visited Sahara several times and absolutely love your food! However, a new employee recently has been giving terrible service. Last week, I waited at the counter while he talked on his phone for a long time. I let it go, assuming it was just a bad day. I went back today and waited 10-15 minutes while he ignored me completely-no greeting or acknowledgment-...
