About Sahara Cafe Somali Cuisine

Sahara Cafe Somali Cuisine offers an authentic and incredible dining experience, with praise for its perfect food, welcoming service, and flavorful dishes like the Philly lamb cheese steak and the delectable sauces. The restaurant has a cozy, family-like atmosphere with a authentic grandfather's family dinner time vibe. It features a nice-sized dining area with large flat screens, and the owner makes sure service is top-notch, making guests feel very welcomed. The menu includes satisfying Somali dishes, such as chicken/lamb rice special, katata plate, and hot, fresh lentil soup—perfect for cold days. Portions are huge and quality is consistently high, with dishes like fried fish being particularly popular. The sauces are worth trying each one, adding depth and spice to the meals. Although the place could use a little makeover, its authentic charm and welcoming staff make up for it. Many visitors travel from afar, often staying for a while, and leave satisfied, with some bringing home plates that their kids loved. The restaurant is open until 11 pm and is a favorite among locals and newcomers alike.
