The chicken was decent, but the pita itself appeared to be store-bought and simply warmed before serving, which took away from the freshness I usually look for at a Mediterranean restaurant. Service was okay--nothing particularly noteworthy, but no major issues either. On the plus side, the restaurant has a spacious interior with plenty of seating, so finding a table shouldn't be a problem. Overall, it was an okay lunch, but the food could use more freshness and flavor to make it a place I'd be eager to return to.

The portions are generous, making it a great spot for sharing plates with friends or family. The service is friendly and attentive, and the restaurant has a cozy, welcoming vibe. Whether you're craving a quick lunch or a full Mediterranean feast, Sahara is a must-visit. Highly recommend the chicken adana kabobs and the baklava for dessert!

Walked in to a nice coffe bar area which did not seem functional .it well decorated with some antique accents keys if different shapes n sizes We were seated and a waiter took our order immediately. The place was a bit busy for a weekday. Complementary wam pita bread n ezme , sun dried tomatoes n spicy jalapeños were not bad . A paper form being warm there was nothing more to it. Got the mixed grill for two which was served with a side of soup and salad . Both sides were delicious. The grilled chicken kebabs and chops were passable though not juicy . All Lamb kebab choices were tough and chewy . This is a mediocre spot as I age v had better Kebabs in the same area . Not my kind of food.

We tried the falafel with hummus and the veggie grill, and both were really good and fresh. We also had the Turkish coffee and kunafa -- such a great combination! The kunafa was warm and delicious and went perfectly with the coffee. Definitely a nice spot to hang out and enjoy good food. The only downside is parking can be a little tricky since it's downtown, but overall we had a great experience and would definitely come back!

Greek Salad with cubechicken - 4/5…read more The Greek salad with grilled chicken was absolutely delicious. The lettuce was fresh and crisp, and the tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, and feta cheese were all fresh and flavorful. The grilled chicken cubes were juicy, tender, and seasoned perfectly. The salad was beautifully presented, and the olive oil and lemon dressing brought everything together. My only complaint is that the grilled chicken portion was extremely small, especially considering the price. I would also have liked a slightly larger overall salad. Despite that, the quality and flavor were excellent, and I would definitely order it again. Hummus - 5/5 The hummus was smooth, creamy, and full of fresh flavor. It paired perfectly with the bread and was one of our favorite appetizers. Beautiful presentation, excellent taste, and very fresh. I just wish the serving size had been a bit larger. Calamari - 3/5 The calamari was served as tiny strips instead of rings, but it was crispy and cooked well. The homemade dipping sauce was absolutely amazing--the best calamari sauce I've ever had! The only disappointment was the portion size, which was very small for the price. Even so, the incredible sauce made this appetizer memorable, and I'd order it again just for that. Chicken Chops - 5/5 The grilled chicken was juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The rice and vegetables were fresh and complemented the meal well. Everything looked beautiful on the plate. The only drawback was that the portion was smaller than expected for the price. Baklava - 4/5 The baklava was fresh, flaky, and perfectly sweet without being overwhelming. The pistachios tasted fresh, and it was a wonderful way to end the meal. Delicious dessert! But super small Overall Restaurant Review - 4/5 We had a wonderful dining experience at Namli Mediterranean & Turkish Cuisine. The restaurant was spotless, the staff was friendly and attentive, and every dish arrived beautifully presented. Everything we ordered was fresh and absolutely delicious. The only reason I didn't give it a perfect experience is that the portions are quite small for the price. If they offered slightly larger portions, it would be outstanding. Despite that, we would definitely return and highly recommend it for the quality of the food, excellent service, and clean, welcoming atmosphere.

The service was friendly and the location casual, but comfortable. We both got the falafel platters, and we split the fried cheese and fries. We also both got cokes. The bill was around $40 which is extremely reasonable for the portions they give. The falafel was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Perfectly cooked and seasoned. It came with three little sauces which could have punched a bit more flavor, but was delicious nonetheless. The falafel came with a small side salad and plentiful rice. The rice was perfectly cooked and delicious. The fried cheese was seasoned perfectly, and packed with flavor. The fries were crisp deliciousness. I'd come back here in a heartbeat, it really didn't disappoint. I wish I lived closer.

The falafel was crispy outside and soft inside and the pita was warm and soft too. My favorite part was the sauces, especially the hot sauce. It actually has real heat and flavor. The second time I went back I had to ask for extra because I kept putting it on everything. I uploaded photos from two different visits and the food was consistent both times. The atmosphere is welcoming and the staff is friendly, they make you feel like family instead of just being served at a random restaurant. Definitely a nice local spot and worth trying if you're in the area.

We kicked things off with the saganaki and a fresh, crisp Greek salad.

The chicken stuffed with spinach and feta was packed with flavor and paired wonderfully with their seasoned lemon potatoes and rice. It's great to see they've maintained such high quality over the years. Easily one of our absolute favorite neighborhood spots for authentic Greek dining. We won't wait this long to come back!

We walked in for lunch and were immediately seated. Though they also take reservations on Resy. We came dressed casually though the vibe seemed a bit dressier with the dimly lit interior. The restaurant has a clean, modern feel while still maintaining the charm of a neighborhood eatery. *FOOD* The menu offers a great variety of Greek-inspired dishes made with fresh ingredients and bold flavors. I ordered the lobster gyro, which was absolutely delicious. The lobster was flavorful and the combination of ingredients came together nicely in the pita. The dish also comes with a side of fries. *SERVICE* The service was friendly and attentive throughout our lunch. Our waitress was welcoming and checked in periodically to make sure everything was going well. Overall, great experience all around and it's the type of place you'd want as a regular neighborhood favorite. I'd definitely return and look forward to trying more of the menu!
