Keep an eye on the dishes parading out of the kitchen. Just one picture on this visit, we arrived absolutely famished. Tonight's dinner we started with the meat Manti. I'm a sucker for dumplings and these little packages topped with garlic yogurt, chili oil and sumac are hard to stop eating. Mains were our favorite -the grilled lamb chops-don't be afraid to use your hands. Definitely leave room for dessert, the warm Kunefe paired with Turkish tea are great to share and nicely finish off your meal.

We're from Connecticut and came to the Allentown area for a Spartan Race at Blue Mountain Ski…read moreResort. After a long drive, the three of us were starving and wanted something healthy. Sahara Mediterranean Cuisine had great reviews, so we decided to give it a try--and we're so glad we did. We arrived around 5:30 PM, and the restaurant was already busy. The phone was ringing constantly with takeout orders, which is always a good sign. The husband and wife owners greeted us warmly, seated us right away, and brought complimentary water while we looked over the menu. We started with the hummus and pita along with the cheese cigars. Both were outstanding. We were told the hummus is made from fresh chickpeas that are slowly cooked rather than canned, and you can absolutely taste the difference. It was incredibly smooth, creamy, and easily some of the best hummus I've ever had. The fresh pita was the perfect complement. Two people in our group ordered the chicken kebabs with rice and the fresh tomato, cucumber, and red onion salad. I ordered the chicken shawarma with rice. It was my first time having authentic chicken shawarma, and it was phenomenal. Everything was seasoned perfectly, fresh, and full of flavor. I honestly can't imagine how anyone could leave a negative review after eating here. From the moment we walked in until the time we left, the food, service, and hospitality were exceptional. If we weren't racing the next morning, I definitely would have tried one of their cheesecakes. The blueberry and pistachio both looked incredible, and judging by the quality of everything else, I'm sure they would have been just as amazing. Before we left, we spent a few minutes talking with the husband, and it only reinforced how much pride they take in what they do. Allentown is lucky to have a restaurant like this. We have nothing comparable where we're from in Connecticut, and if we lived nearby, this would become a regular stop without question.

Honestly, this alone is worth a visit and to me was the star of my food experience here. For my main I ordered the beef and lamb gyro platter. Sometimes lamb can be a little gamey but not this lamb. It was slow cooked for 48hr to achieve a deep garlicky flavor that was just decadent. The meet was tender and the rice fresh and the right ratio of sticky but firm. Finally I ended with the baklava. Flakey crunchy and sweet. This was a classic way to end a Mediterranean meal and it did not disappoint. While this place is in a strip mall, do not let the location fool you. The inside is tastefully decorated in an elegant understated way. The service was top tier. Our waiter was attentive, talked to us about the dishes we ordered, and had a genuine friendliness to him. If you are looking for Mediterranean food or just to try something new, I would highly recommend that you check out this spot.

There's ample parking in front of the building. The restrooms are handicap, accessible The atmosphere is decorated with a beautiful Mediterranean theme, florals , wood themed throughout , greenery, and plants. Great for date night as well. Greeted via a wonderful gentleman Fred , who is also the owner of Mediterranean Grill. He seated us immediately. He took our order we decided to go with a chicken Shawarma wrap And lamb Shawar. Both had a beautiful presentation. We ordered a side dish of grape leaves and a hummus dip. The dip was amazing, smooth and creamy and flavorful, and the grape leaves had just the right touch of flavor, rolled to perfection. The chicken Shawarma was lightly seasoned with a garlic cream sauce. The lamb Shawarma was equally just as good and flavorful. The dessert was a Osmayli - creamy and delicious, not too heavy . The prices are reasonable. When I visit Bethlehem Pennsylvania again I would definitely stop by here and if you are here, I say stop by give it a try you will not be disappointed and you will thank me later Say hello to Fred

You order on a large touchscreen and then they call your name when ready, then your food comes out in a plastic bag all wrapped up. I went with their Steel City Beef/Lamb Gyro. A classic gyro wrapped in toasted pita with homemade tzatziki, lettuce, tomato, and onion. The meat was shaved thick and had a great flavor without being too gamey. The pita was fresh, and the tzatziki tangy. I just wish there was a heavier garlic presence somewhere in the dish, either the meat itself or the sauce. Steel City is currently sitting at a 5.1 on my Beli. I think the food is very good and well prepared. It all depends on if you are looking for that super casual ambiance or a place where you can wine and dine.

I enjoy the kibbe naye (raw meat with wheat bulgar and spices. It delicious just like my mother used to make. They only serve it on Saturdays as it is made to order. It's a large portion so if you do not eat all of it the one of the owners will fry it into patties for you to take home. The salads are fresh and delicious - actually everything is! To end the meal I order Arabic coffee and paklava made with walnut which I prefer to pistachios. The only problem is that it is located in a neighborhood with only street parking however it's worth this small aggravation.
