The food was phenomenal and much better than similar restaurants in the area. My only disappointment is I did not discover Sahara Cafe sooner. We asked how good it was jokingly and the super kind women cooking said trust me, and I’m so glad we did. One of the best meals I’ve had in months and I will be back for more soon!

Food was delicious and cooked to order, authentic Middle Eastern cuisine with attentive service & perhaps a bit more spice than usual. We will come back again.

Baclava was burnt and soggy. Lamb and rice was disgusting. If you want some good lamb and rice go to Al-Amir next to Kroger.They were closed that’s why I decided to give you guys a try………wrong decision clearly.

I ordered a lamb hanith which it was showing on their website menu $16. When I picked up my food she charged me $22 without saying the total. I asked her why $22? She said that menu was made before 2020 or before covid. Also, the food wasn’t fresh it had kinda bad smell.

Service is on point. Musa took care of me. The shawarma was on point. Kefts kebab was 7/10. Rice was ok. Love the grilled tomato and onion. Very old school spot

mousakka is a joke. its overcooked, bland, and just plain vomit inducing. the dolmas are so acidic they could melt the enamel off your teeth. its a shame they're legally allowed to call themselves a greek restaurant really.

We had the pleasure of dining at this Mediterranean restaurant and it was truly a delightful experience. We tried three different dishes, each one bursting with flavors that perfectly captured the essence of Mediterranean cuisine. The attention to detail and the careful selection of ingredients were evident in every bite. The impeccable service further elevated our visit, making us feel welcomed and valued. From the moment we walked in, the lady’s warm hospitality made us feel at home. Overall, a fantastic culinary journey that left us craving for more. Highly recommended for anyone looking to savor authentic Mediterranean dishes in a welcoming atmosphere.
