Sahara Mediterranean Cuisine

This was my first time visiting this restaurant, and I was truly impressed. They specialize in authentic Middle Eastern food, and the taste was absolutely amazing — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The service was honestly the best I’ve ever experienced. The staff were extremely respectful, welcoming, and professional. They made me feel valued and comfortable the entire time. The restaurant is very clean, well-organized, and has a classy atmosphere. Prices are also very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for real Middle Eastern cuisine and top-tier service. I will definitely be coming back!

Yesterday we stopped at Sahara for lunch. The food was delicious and amazing staff. Very accommodating and prices are reasonable. The owner is a fantastic person, Naeema was incredibly kind, welcoming and even offered free food. We ordered the falafel platter and fried calamari. Highly recommend their deserts with the Turkish coffee.

This place is truly phenomenal. All of their food is so delicious, fresh, and flavorful. Their babaganoush is one of the best things I've ever eaten. I also love their Greek chicken souvlaki sandwich. It's loaded with meat and tzatziki sauce. The owner and staff are so kind and attentive, as well. Highly recommend trying this place out!!!

A Must-Visit Mediterranean Gem in Allentown Sahara has quickly become one of my favorite destinations for Mediterranean cuisine in the Lehigh Valley. I’ve been here twice with my family, and both times the experience has been exceptional—from the incredible food to the warm, attentive service. If you’re lucky, you’ll get to meet Tom and Naima, the owners. Their love for food, people, and genuine hospitality comes through the moment you walk through the door. They care about every detail, and it shows. Bring a favorite bottle of wine and a few good friends, and you’re guaranteed a memorable evening. The chicken shawarma anything is truly the best, their hummus is absolutely to die for, and the pistachio cheesecake is the perfect sweet finish. A true Lehigh Valley treasure. Highly recomm

My friend brought me here for lunch because it is one of her favorite restaurants. It is obvious why. Super-clean, delicious authentic food, and the proprietors TRULY CARE about your dining experience. I had the spanakopita and it was amazing! It had the most delicate fresh dill flavor and was served with a side of perfectly-marinated olives. So, so delicious! The hummus appetizer was so smooth and creamy, as well. You will not be disappointed!
