    Gyro plate with 2 sides and a sauce. Big enough for two!
    Mary C.

    If you are like me and want healthy food on the go try Sahara Cafe. Fast, friendly service and fresh food prepared when you order! Lunch specials if you show up before 3:00 p.m. Indoor and outdoor seating, clean environment lots of options. There are plenty of tables that are actually clean and a nice modern atmosphere. Easy menu on the wall with photos so you can place your order at the counter. We actually ordered one plate which comes with two sides and a sauce. The gyro/chicken, humus, pita and we paid a little extra for the Greek fries, it's worth $2.99. It was plenty of food for two! The proof is in the photos!

    Nuked packaged gyro!

    How this place is in business is crazy. The gyro meat I presliced microwave crap with zero flavor. They do NOT cook or make anything fresh here. Now I know why it was empty for lunch!

    Sahara is in a small strip mall on North Point. It took over the old House of Hummus spot. I've been here a few times, and the food is always great. I especially love the chicken shawarma and the falafel. The pita, Greek salad, and hummus are also worth checking out. The owners are super nice and will help you if you need guidance.

    Wow wow wow!!! I was in the mood for Mediterranean food and couldn't have picked a better place! Food was phenomenal and service was great. The owner Yusra was incredible with us explaining the menu and making sure we were happy with the quality of the food. Great to see an owner that cares so much! Will definitely come back. Five !

    Ran into a little gem while on errands in Alpharetta. This place had great Mediterranean fare. Everything was made fresh from the wonderful soup to the great gyro wraps. Will definitely hit this spot on the regular when in area.

    Two things I have never had at Sahara Cafe - a bad meal, or bad service. Coming from a Lebanese household, my family can be harsh critics of Mediterranean food. But this place has quickly become our favorite spot in town. The owners and staff are always quick to strike up a conversation and deliver some of the most flavorful and fresh food I've had in the area.

    As they make the food order. One at a time, as ordered.

    always freshly cooked food. Done onsite with outstanding prices and customer service.

    Gluten free chicken shawarma wrap (yes this wrap is GF) with falafel sampler.

    One of the best shawarma places in alpharetta. This is where the old house of hummus was off of northpoint pkwy. They still do a ton of gluten free including pita. The falafel was outstanding. The salad dressing is unreal and very home made! The lady who owns it is so nice and kind and takes great care of everyone. The food is just awesome. Don't miss the braised lamb!

The interior was adorable but what impressed us the most was their approach to coffee. We had no idea there were so many different ways to process coffee beans so we ended up looking them up while enjoying our drinks. Once we learned more about them, we were so intrigued that we actually ordered some coffee online afterward! It was easy to see why this cafe is so popular. The line kept getting longer and longer the entire time we were there. It's a fairly small cafe so seating was pretty limited as well. I ordered the Latte with Caramel Cardamom and it was delicious! My husband got the Coffee Shot of Chamomile Pink Bourbon from their "Coffee Nerd Drinks" menu. He was especially interested in it because of the brewing method. I'm usually not a black coffee drinker but I tried a sip and was surprised by how much I liked it. There were still so many drinks we wanted to try but since this was only a weekend trip, we didn't have enough time. We'll definitely be visiting again the next time we're in the area!

    I rarely get up to Alpharetta and when I was I had to know if they played lived up to the hype. It…read morecertainly does! I usually get a vanilla latte as my litmus test but I just had to try the girls breakfast. Which was fabulous. The cinny cold foam was A+. Also the baristas were very friendly! I'm only sad that I probably won't be up in the area for a long time but if I do come up there I will def be shopping by again.

We got here on a chilly Friday afternoon but instantly felt warm once we stepped in. After going through the choices and checking the display shelf, I went with the Zaffron Latte and Baklava to share with a friend. The latte was absolutely amazing and loved the subtle sweetness and fragrance of the saffron. In fact, I think it's my favorite latte I have ever had in the area! The Baklava was also delicious and filled with pistachios but not overly sweet. The staff/owners are also super welcoming and very nice! Seating is limited, but there is a huge parking lot in the front. I can't wait to come back for another latte and to try more of their baked goodies!

Upon our visit, the interior was quaint and very much looked like a coffee shop straight out of a movie setting. Food items (apart from bakery) are made to order which is always nice. Parking is plenty, however it is shared with the neighboring businesses. The barista was extremely nice and was beyond willing to give her opinion on items. My husband and I each ordered a drink (mine was the super yummy Honey Milk Safron) and shared a small selection of banana nut muffin bites. The drinks were great and we'd love to come back to try their food items as well!

It was topped with whipped feta that was super airy. Stuffed branzino: the fish was perfectly charred and deboned which made it very easy to eat.

This goes perfectly well with the chicken and Bronzino. Pistachio lava cake: this was a delightful to an amazing meal. The cake has molten white chocolate filling and topped with cardamom ice cream.

The ambiance, decor and overall vibe is very upscale. Service was top notch, from the host to our server. Big shoutout to Kaleigh/Kaylie who was the sweetest and gave us the best recommendations. I always order the grilled wings because these are to die for, definitely a must!!! All of the dips in smaller orders we got were delicious with the complimentary bread, Muhammara with the walnut is my new obsession. For main entrées, we went with the Honey Harissa Chicken and the Lamb Neck along with an order of the buttery rice to share, with no regrets. The Harissa chicken was a classic spin, perfectly seasoned and paired with pickled onions and salad. The lamb neck was so home-y and rich, falling off the bone, with a perfect broth for the buttery rice. For dessert, we opted for the classic Baklava, solid classic one paired with rose water ice cream, and the Turkiramisú, which was a pleasant surprise, paired with turkish coffee such a delight. Overall an amazing dinner, perfect for solo, date night or groups. Parking is complimentary valet or self parking in the medical center next door.
