Sahara Middle Eastern Restaurant

The food is so good, no excellent!! The service is so great. The restaurant is not fancy, but simple, clean, bright and pleasant. The hummus is so good. The combo skewers is so great. Greek salad is yummy. It's $12.99, but can feed 3-4 people easily if you're getting another entree. The ground meat kebab is yummy. The beef is so good! I forgot to take pictures because I was so excited to eat. I took a picture of my leftovers at home.

One of the best places to eat Middle Eastern food in Los Angeles is Sahara Restaurant in Pasadena! 🌟 I've been coming here since the 90s. The kebabs, hummus, tabbouleh, and Greek salad are my absolute favorites. Everything I've ever tried here is made fresh, yummy, and super delicious. The staff is friendly and attentive to your needs. They have an open-concept kitchen, so you can see them cooking all the food when you order at the counter. 🍽️ My family and I usually like coming here to have lunch on Saturdays before 3:00 PM (they close from 3:00-5:00 PM Mon-Sat, then reopen from 5:00 - 8:00 PM for the dinner crowd, closed on Sundays). They have parking in the back and two spaces for parking on the side of the restaurant. It's a fantastic place to relax and enjoy delicious food with family and friends. I highly recommend it! 👍

First time here and we loved it! The food was really great and honestly a bargain. We both got the falafel plate and it came with lots of pita, olives, cucumbers, feta and we both picked a salad. The salad was a really tasty minty cabbage salad. The plate came with falafel, hummus, salad with tahini and a very good tabouleh. Both ladies that came to our table were so nice. Can't wait to come back!

Awesome Lebanese food, cooked over charcoal! Great friendly customer service. Will definitely be back when we're in town again from Vegas.

Amazing! Stopped on our way to Santa Anita Racetrack for lunch. Split the combination plate. Sooooo good! Family owned and they're super friendly.
