" I’ve been to Sahara several times now, and I must say, it's one of my favorite Mediterranean spots! The authenticity of the dishes is remarkable; I particularly enjoy the spicy lamb dishes. However, I’ve noticed that the service varies—sometimes quick, other times rather slow. Still, the friendly staff and delicious food keep bringing me back. I highly recommend trying their tabbouleh salad—it's simply refreshing! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had lunch at Sahara recently with a couple of friends, and while the environment was nice and cozy, I found the service a bit slow on that day. However, the food made up for it! The grilled vegetables and lamb skewers were cooked to perfection and tasted authentic. I would recommend their falafel too—it’s packed with flavor! Overall, a good spot, and I'm looking forward to another visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sahara restaurant blew me away last weekend! I tried multiple appetizers including their famous hummus and baba ganoush, both of which had layers of flavor that transported me back to my time in the Middle East. The ambiance was perfect for a family dinner, warm and inviting. The chicken kebabs were also incredibly juicy. Definitely a must-visit if you’re near New Brunswick! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! Just wow! Sahara was an exceptional experience. The food was out of this world. The mix of spices in their dishes is just right, and I especially enjoyed the stuffed grape leaves. The service was friendly and accommodating, ensuring we were well taken care of. We’ll be making this a regular spot for our family dinners! " (*Curated Review*)
