Pick 3: Gyros, Dolma, and Hummus
Eric K.

Outstanding gyros cooked the proper way on a souvla! Fresh hummus! And excellent and kind service!

Babylon Gyros Delight
Cade A.

This was a really good restaurant, we will definitely be back ! Prices were typical for this kind of food and the portions were very generous. The food was also very fresh and I really appreciated the waitron's attention to detail about vegetarian/vegan dietary needs. The food came out very fast & we enjoyed the cooler of drinks to grab as opposed to refill service. The two employees were super friendly and gave good recommendations/explanations. We are suckers for a small, downtown restaurant so the vibes here were perfect to stop in and get a quick lunch.

Hummus and falafel

Que Hall and Oats....How does it Feel to be Back? I haven't worked in Richmond since 2015 so it has been that long since I was in this delightful little place! We had a pretty sunny day and I felt confident in finding a parking spot in downtown Richmond! I scored a spot on the street right in front of the restaurant and I was excited to be there. It was 12:30 pm and I was expecting a crowd, back in the day there would have been a line and folks jockey for tables. But I walked right up to order and I didn't see a menu - so I just told the gentleman at the counter I wanted hummus and falafel and hoped for the best. I was not disappointed! I got a l lovely plate of smooth garlicy hummus, with pickles, tomatoes and Kalama olives as garnish. Three warm, crunchy on the outside light and flaky on the inside falafel, warm peta and my own little tub of their homemade tzatziki sauce. My service was fast and friendly. I am so happy they are still there serving up tasty treats, and I am thrilled To Be Back!

A classic gyro from Babylon is one of my top favorites when wanting something hearty yet on a higher protein meal. The owner is always kind and patient while ordering and speedy with the turn around time for the order.

This place is one of the few things that we truly miss about Richmond. Whenever we are visiting we try to make sure to stop in.

After several years of meaning to go, a recent doctor appointment finally had me in the area during…read morelunch time. Let me tell you, it's a recurrent (every 2 weeks) appointment, and I'm about to make my 3rd trip to Sahara this week. Wonderful price for the amount of food you get. The first time I went I was only able to eat about half of my portion. So much chicken! I got the chicken shawarma, and my hubby got the chicken leg lunch special. Wonderful seasoning, well cooked, great hummus, great Greek salad... the pita bread was meh, but I'll forgive it because everything else was great. The inside isn't a 5 star restaurant, but it's serviceable! Good amount of seating. The staff are friendly, open to questions, and very nice overall. They like to keep the line moving, so don't dilly dally. Ha! Overall, I can see why this was one of my friends favorite restaurants, and it's definitely added into my Lexington rotation.

Sahara lunch is the place to be. They get you served on the fly. I personally love the chicken…read moreshawarma and add an extra level of spice. It is amazing, the staff is always so helpful. There is seating to sit but just keep in mind lunch rush is real and you may have to share a table with someone. Currently they close for the summer which I did not know. Already waiting for them to reopen.
