Stepping into the restaurant, you feel insulated from the noise and sunlight of the street. The food is excellent, easily some of the best Mediterranean food in the area. The menu has a range of options for meat lovers, vegetarians, and vegans. My personal favorite was the falafel plate!

I love to have more options when it comes to Mediterranean food. I have a few others that I…read morefrequent, and I think this one will most certainly be added to to the rotation. This was my first time here and I chose a few of my favorite things. I ordered baba ganoush, tabbouleh and spanakopita. The baba ganoush was tasty, the eggplant had just the right amount of smokiness from being roasted. It was also fresh with the lemon juice. The tabbouleh was delightful with a good crunch from all the parsley. Spanakopita was my least favorite of the three, but still good none the less! My only qualm was that the wrapper was not as crispy as I prefer. The dining room is nice. It gives a little bit of a fast food and dine in vibe with some booths and tables. The service was great, both people who helped us were very nice! I look forward to trying some of their other menu items!

I recently tried Sahara's Lebanese Grill on Central for takeout and it was fantastic. Everything…read morewas packaged well and still hot when I got home. I ordered the grilled chicken plate with yellow rice, hummus, pita, falafel, and a side salad. The chicken was juicy and paired perfectly with the seasoned rice. The hummus was super smooth and creamy, and the pita was warm and soft. The falafel had a nice crisp outside with a flavorful center. Even the simple salad tasted fresh and balanced out the plate nicely. Overall the portion size was generous and the flavors were spot on. For carryout, the quality held up really well and everything tasted fresh. I'll definitely be back when I'm craving Mediterranean food.

The lamb kebab plate is absolutely outstanding. It's one of the best, if not the best,…read moreMediterranean restaurants I've tried in town. The lamb is cooked to perfection. The meat is tender, soft, and incredibly flavorful with no hint of that usual lamb smell. If you've avoided lamb before, Sahara will definitely change your mind. The portion is generously large. You can easily make two meals out of it. This is a must-try for anyone looking for authentic, high-quality Mediterranean food.

Finding the Ghengis Grill had closed, we headed across the parking lot to Pars. It had been on my…read morewife's wish list so this was a great opportunity to have the whole family try it. We arrived a few minutes after noon on a Saturday and were promptly seated. Our waitress took drink orders and returned to answer our questions and take our orders. We had a lamb gyro, lamb kebab and my daughter ordered a plate with a sweet rice, falafel, hummus and a Mediterranean salad. Everyone was more than pleased with the flavors of their dish. We shared tastes around. I found the rice interesting, but prefer more savory when accompaniment to an entree. The marinated lamb for the kebab was outstanding and the meat cooked perfectly. I even tried the hummus which to my surprise was very good. I do not as a rule enjoy chick peas, but this mix was delightful. The restaurant itself carried the desired theme, even offering traditional low seating for those who wish that feeling. Solid five stars. I'd give extra to the wait staff for how they dealt with the chronic complainer at the next table, if Yelp would allow that extra. If you're looking for outstanding Mediterranean cuisine, give Pars a try.

Food is good but VERY VERY expensive. I ordered Lamb Souvalaki plus an extra kebab. I was charged…read more$58 dollars for lunch. Service was great, but doesn't make up for the price gouging. Reason for my complaint. I purchased 1/2 of a whole Lamb this year, butchered, and packaged for $162.00. Total was about 44 pounds of Lamb. PARS should wonder how many customers have just stopped eating in their establishment because of the ridiculous prices. They have competitors and will be going there in the future.
