    It’s like discovering the world’s most perfect food… Recommend Sahara chicken and falafel. Hummus and Greek salad. Skip the rice and so many low carb choices.

    Outstanding Shawarma

    One of the highlights of my annual visit to Lexington is lunch and/or dinner at Sahara. They serve Middle Eastern cuisine at its finest - simple, fresh, and delicious. I'm particularly fond of their shawarma, which has been spiced and grilled perfectly.

    Amazing food. . .
