Sahara Taste Of The Middle East

Great Middle East. My wife had the falafel plate she said was delicious. I had the beef kefta (kefta kebab) plate, which sprinkled with onions with salt and sumak, mixed with a bit of parsley (classic accompaniment), grilled tomatoes, pita wedges, excellent saffron rice with almonds and golden raisins, excellent pickled beets, pita wedges and a side dish of your choice (I decided for taboouli). All for less than $11!. We all agreed that there were these little authentic touches that confront this place. That and the courts. Between us we had: Hummus, her Mediterranean salad. their Greek salad and tabouli (x 2). All were excellent except for the tabouli that was a bit soggy. All in all, very good quality, very generous portions for an excellent price. Clean, bright place. Friendly, attentive staff. We have cheese filled pastries, Cuba and chicken for a picnic dinner tonight. Expect that these are also excellent. Will update this review if not. Chicken bored was pretty good. Cheesecake was excellent. Kracked Wheat Cuba: The filling was good. The coating was different than expected. I had always (and made) cuba/coubi/koubeh covered with a dough of ground beef mixed with wort wheat. This seemed to be a dough mixed with flour. Not as crispy as the other method. Leftover falafel from lunch again well warmed, just as she kufta.

One of the four or five best food restaurants in the Middle East, which I ever love Middle Eastern cuisine. They mainly serve Iraqi dishes with a Lebanese flair. Turkish also influenced the Iranian influence. Everything here is delicious you can't go wrong. The staff is always quite busy, not necessarily the friendly, but very efficient, not nonsense.

No case of this 4 stars plus food. I guarantee that the food is not fresh... it is usually heated again. It doesn't taste fresh. The fries are strange as you would get at a rally. I felt sick after dinner there. Very nice staff. Much potential here... but I think they're trying to optimize cooking and it shows.

My favorite place for to go food for quite awhile. I?ve tried many plates. Most often, the combination plate with great beef Kabobs and chicken. The yellow rice is awesome. Have taken to the beet salad after many orders of the mid eastern salad. Fast service and my pickup orders have never been wrong.

Fantastic middle eastern food! The flatbread was fantastic. The chicken and beef kabobs were amazing! Highly recommend ?

Wow! I bookmarked this eatery from the activity log on Yelp and, I 'm so glad I did! The food at the Sahara was fantastic and so were each and every employee. We had the chicken kabob with saffron rice, Greek salad, cheese flat bread, beef middle eastern 'egg rolls ', and, potato curry soup. Wow! all the dishes were delicious and we walked out of there carrying our stomachs! We definitely will be regulars!

I highly recommend the beef shawarma plate! Very glad that this place has opened their doordash reach to our part of the neighborhood. It's a bit pricey but the portions are generous. Compared to other Middle Eastern places in San Diego, their food is not underwhelmingly dry. I would definitely order from here again.
