I have always loved this place. The staff is attentive and polite. They also have the best curry stew! I hate spicy stuff but when I am ill,this is my go to. For NYE we ordered the Combo for 2 and had enough for 4. We also order some other favorites like Falafal. It all was above plain restaurant food. I can't wait to go there again. It really is the best.

Sadly, there isn't a lot of good food in this area. But, the Sahara is an exception to that. Love the chicken cream chop, the potato chop, the chicken thighs, pick your shawarma. The lentil soup is enough of a reason to stop here. Especially when it is accompanied by their fresh baked bread. If you have a large enough group, sharing some hummus and pita would be a pleasure.

The service is excellent. the servings are huge. The place is huge, to the point that it always seems empty at lunch. But, I am not there to eat ambience. Especially on a business lunch. Even the teas (both hot and cold) are well prepared. As a result, I eat here often.

I was with a group of friends & everybody ordered something different. Most of them liked what they had except for myself & one other in the group. I had some god-awful dish called "shawarma" which I did not like AT ALL! After 2 or 3 bites just couldn't eat any more of it ... had the rest boxed but ended up leaving it behind.
