Sahara On Main

I tried the shawarma plate with yellow rice and it was outstanding! The meat was tender and full of flavor, and the rice was perfectly seasoned. Generous portion, great presentation, and friendly service. Highly recommended!

Great selection of food choices on this menu. Food: 4 stars due to good grape leaves and fresh greens but an average burger patty on too thick of a bun. You taste mostly bread in this situation. Service: 5 stars due to the staff being friendly and made recommendations on what to order. The chefs were also prompt with cooking the food. Atmosphere: 5 stars due to a clean and comfortable setting.

This restaurant has always been our favorite spot in town. When we heard it was under new management, we weren’t sure what to expect in terms of food quality. However, our recent visit turned out to be a wonderful experience. The food was absolutely delicious, and the customer service was excellent. The owner is a very sweet and friendly lady who made us feel truly welcome. It was a great treat for the whole family, and we’re happy to say it remains one of the best places to dine in town!

The food was basic nothing special. I ordered an Lamb Gyro and was shocked to see the lamb wasn't even on the vertical broiler. It was cubed and stored in a sauce pan and warmed on a flattop. It resembled ground beef. Mediterranean fast food. The meal was ready in under 5 minutes. Fast food Mediterranean no home cooked laborious vibes. It was ok. The staff were super friendly and fast.

We tried the chicken kabobs, the chicken curry and the Pasha Chicken. The owner brought over fresh and hot pita bread and hummus. Both of them were incredibly. All of the people in my party were blown away with the customer service and the food! The portions were large and enough to have leftovers! The Curry chicken had the option of spicy or mild. I tried the mild. There was a kick but definitely true to the description. Another added bonus is that they have a couple parking spots in front of the store front so you don’t have worry about finding parking in Columbia. Overall a great experience and would recommend trying it!

Absolutely delicious food, I ate until I had to loosen my belt. Really nice people, both the chef and the cashier were amazing. I only gave 4 stars for atmosphere because I went at around 5-5:30 which is early for dinner but the decorations are very nice. My new years resolution is to try new kinds of foods that I have never tried before and I'm so happy I chose to go here for my restaurant for february. I will be bringing my friends here and getting as many people to try it as possible

This is decent place with affordable meals. People generally get falafel wrap but their falafel platter is much better and filling. It's a go-to lunch place for me and many students. You get vegetarian and vegan options here.

We really enjoyed our experience at Sahara this weekend! The food and atmosphere is amazing. The staff were very friendly and respectful with excellent service, my children love this place. They truly deserve more then 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! Thank you so much Sahara, we will definitely be coming back.
