Hey, this pizza is great! It is consistently fresh, hot and yummy! The people who work there are always helpful. Yes, it is take-out and delivery only, which works for me. there is no seating. For how small it is they do a great job! I totally appreciate that I can call and order what I want and it is ready for pick up in under 15 minutes. I appreciate that. Keep up the good work! read more

Sahara Pizza - Pizza wings ranch - Pizza Near Me - Cle Elum, Washington

Saraha's has def improved over the years and is the go to spot in upper county to grab a quick zza to go. Quick delivery and very friendly service! Don't think there's any inside dining but can walk about and grab a to go order if you're not getting it delivered. Pizza is good, pretty greasy but that's expected right!? Make sure you eat it fresh, at least the first slice on the ride home lol nothing beats it. Nice job Saraha, will keep going back and recommend to the homies read more

Pizza is just ok. Too much sauce and cheese is not quality but the issue I have is with their delivery drivers speeding through neighborhoods and around kids. Most recent experience was two nights ago. Their driver was going about 45 on Larkspur in Suncadia. We got him to stop and asked him to slow down which he said no and peeled out. 45 yo white man in a Volvo read more

Expensive pile of cheese. Decent crust but it was literally just cheese with a small amount of toppings. Not worth it

Ordered a Hawaiian pizza online for pickup and the pizza was well made and tasty. It was supposed to be a thin crust but seemed more like a regular thickness crust but not a big deal. I arrived a few minutes before it was supposed to be ready and after checking waited in the car and the friendly employee brought it out with a smile. Would get it again. read more

We ordered 1 pepperoni and 2 custom pizzas to be delivered to Suncadia Lodge for our family and they were delicious. We were glad to be able to order a thin crust! The phone service was excellent and the delivery was timely. We would definitely order from Sahara Pizza on a return visit! read more

A huge "Thank you" to the employee who helped my wife who was stranded with a dead battery and needed a jump. We appreciate your compassion, kindness and willingness to help others. read more

I ordered 2 pizzas and they said it would be 10 minutes. I got my pizzas within 8 minutes. The pizzas were really good and the workers were really nice! 10/10 would recommend read more

As I was waiting outside the establishment, on the bleak sidewalk with dirt landscape, looking at the little chain and rude looking no parking sign which keeps customers out of the open door, so they can't see what drinks are available ? I was definitely thinking this was a 2 star experience. However, the employee did give cheery customer service; it was ready when he said. The pizza was pretty good and had no particular flaws. The pizza also didn't have any particularly special aspects to make it 5 star like exceptional crust, zesty unique sauce, or unusually fresh versus canned toppings. Give 'em a try. read more

On my daughter's 17th birthday, we ordered two large pizzas. We were told it would be 40 minutes. We showed up in 45 minutes. The person there told us "5 more minutes". We said that was fine. Ten minutes later he told us "two more minutes". Ten minutes later, he told us he accidentally gave our pizzas away. We left. They are a mess! read more

Went in for a simple cheese pizza and hit the spot. Bit of flop, thin crust but crispy crust and not overly greasy. Presentation was great, a lot of cheese and good amount of sauce. They're a window service due to Covid however you can pull up curbside and they'll deliver to your vehicle. Simple and easy going location. read more

Food was great and the service was even better. We had a long day on the cold snowy roads and weren't sure we would make it back in time. It's a tradition for our family to get pizza on Christmas Eve for my husbands birthday. When I called the lady was so nice and said she would wait for us to pick up the pizza. Seriously the nicest thing ever! read more

I kind of like pulling into a strange town, middle of nowhere, that I have no idea what the town name means, or how it is even pronounced. Cle Elum is a non-stoplight town (as the mayor proclaims in his 'welcome' section of the free newspaper) and was built as a logging town, later coal mining, and was a stop on the westward roll of the Northern Pacific Railway. The town was pretty much wiped out from a fire in 1918, which destroyed 29 square blocks of buildings. Only one building remains from that era. I had just come through the Snoqualmie Pass, was making my way east on US Hwy 2, which I am navigating across the US in short spurts, and was tired and hungry. After cruising the entire strip of the town looking at the motel options, I turned around in the parking lot of "GIANT BURGERS SERVED ON FRENCH BREAD" (it wasn't open, damn!), and settled on the Traveler's Inn, a modest motel whose sign assured me they had "FREE WIFI". Funny how that's changed over the years, the 'come-on'? I remember when those signs said "It's COOOOOOOL inside," or "Color TV". Now it's wifi and breakfast. I have sure had some pitiful "continental breakfasts" on this trip. Perhaps the skimpiest was the Good Nite Inn, in Calabasas, CA. (Where guests also have to sign a pledge that they will BE QUIET at night!) GOOD NITE! Checked in the Traveler's Inn, with the help of Mr. Patel, who assured me that the 'wifi was very good'. The room was very small but immaculate. The motel filled up as the night went on with contract workers for the Bonneville Power Association, I guess they were either clearing timber or maintaining lines. The were a rag-tag looking crew. Settled, connected to the internets, it was time to peruse my dinner options, I was really in the mood for a sit down, leisurely meal, but Cel Elum (local Indian word roughly meaning "swift water"), offered few choices beyond coffee shops. I had spotted a few billboards for Sahara Pizza on this trip ("The Hottest Place in Town"), which I learned later was a modest sized chain in the Pacific Northwest, and two locations in Boliva (????) (the country). So when I spotted one in downtown Cle Elum, I figured I'd grab a pie, go back to my motel, and catch up with my online work. The sign outside promised there was a pool table and games inside, but once inside, the greeter board said "excuse our dust, we are remodeling", and the seating area was pretty decimated, and gaming stored away somewhere. It may have also said under new ownership, or management, IIRC. I ordered a medium, Pepp, Sausage, and Double Cheese, and a couple of cans of Diet Coke. There was a brief discussion about whether or not they could change a hundred dollar bill, and I asked where the nearest ATM was, just in case, and that was an enigma to the employees, they didn't seem to be able to tell me that. (Turns out they did have change for a hundred, and there was an ATM directly across the street). 15 minutes later the pie was out, I was on my way back to the no-tell motel, and digging into to the pie, which was a lot better than I could have hoped for. Some of their POP materials states that "they use the finest mozzarella money can buy", and I don't know about that, but it was pretty good. Toppings were ample, crust was firm, sauce was a little sweet for my taste, but not to the point of my not liking it. The famous "BurgerDogBoy how is it the next day after sitting out all nite" test was passed with flying colors. Sahara is a good choice. If I rated this pizza on the worstpizza.com scale, it would get 6 out of 8 slices read more

I had low hopes looking at the past reviews...BUT, it was absolutely delicious. Service was super good, and the pizza was delicious. We got smalls and they were bigger than we thought, as the three of us were only a little peckish and after smelling and tasting the pizza, it was over, leaving only a few pieces. Tried the pepperoni popper and a normal pepperoni and just absolutely amazing! We were just passing through and all agreed to eat here on our way back! read more

Very pricey for a pizza place. $50 for a large pizza and 2 two liter sodas to be delivered. It was a Friday at dinner time but I still think an hour and twenty min delivery time is way too long. Pizza is good though. read more

Horrible pizza last time I picked up. The worker was outside talking with some sketchy people in a beat up card and looked high as a kite. Unkept dirty appearance he was smoking a cigarette took my card and didn't even wash his hands before touching my order. Disgusting. Then I get home open up the box in the pizza( supreme) was undercooked and scampi on all the toppings. Outrageously priced $40 for a large pizza takeout? And then to have a pizza of that horrible quality very disappointed and all I could think of was the dirty gapped out employee preparing itSo I only ate a slice and threw the rest away. Village pizza in Roslyn is way better clean facility clean employees and much better quality pizza. read more

Just no. There are much better options like Beaus or if you are closer to Roslyn go to Village Pizza. The pizza here is very bad.

Third time this has happened, Called in... put me on hold for 10 minutes then he hung up. Called again, they pick up the phone and set it on the counter for 15 minutes then hang up. Call again.... They answer and start saying to hold. I interrupt him and explain what is happening. He takes the order and says 30 minutes. I arrived in 30 minutes and they say they don't have the order. HORRIBLE customer service and unreliable and again, this is the 3rd time this has happened DON'T EVER WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY HERE !!!! read more

The pizza was very tasty and delivery was great, they brought it right to our door at Suncadia. 4 stars because one of the pizzas had too much cheese. read more

Honestly the best pizza around. I miss their old location, but the quaint little building it is located in does the trick. People who grow up in Cle Elum ALWAYS miss Sahara Pizza when they move. The pizza is quick and delicious. read more

Really great pizza in cle elum. It's not greasy and has lots of fresh options. LOVE their Greek salad as well. read more

Tried to order numerous times and will simply get hung up on... waste of time. Couldn't bothered again after all that.

So delicious!!! Order ahead of time and lick it right up. A killer menu and the best crust. Will absolutely be back soon!

Called in advance for 2 pizzas. Went to pick up. Waited an hour after watching 2 young ladies order on site after we arrived and leave with 3 pizzas. They got theirs in 15 minutes. ???? But the pizza is great! read more

Monday night, staying at Suncadia. I decided to venture off the property to eat, but it turns out most of the local restaurants are closed. Since I'm traveling with my kids (ages 10 & 6), I had to find someplace they'd like. Nothing was open in Roslyn, so as we were driving through Cle Elum to find a McDonald's, we found Sahara Pizza. The place is as divey as it gets. Very dark on the inside. I wouldn't say this is kid-friendly, but it'll do. But the pizza was freshly made (I kind of didnt want to look back in the kitchen), and it was served to us, piping hot. My kids (ages 10 & 6) thought it was amazing. I was actually very impressed with the quality. I know there are higher-rated pizza places in this town, but this wasn't bad. read more

Wierd with covid, felt uncomfortable. Pozza was not memorable but ok, again i believe covid 19 had a lot to do with it but regardless I won't be back read more

Stanwood location all meat pizza is amazing! I order it and have it delivered for my son who is a firefighter, to the station all the time!!! read more

Pizza was great and we are glad they delivered. The down side is as we placed our order the gentleman on the phone kept saying he didn't have the products to make what we wanted . We ordered 4 medium pizzas and 8 salads with side of hot wings. Seemed expensive. $174ish If they plan on being one of the only pizza places in town I would recommend staying up on pizza produce. read more

Dear Sahara Pizza: Please don't tell my husband that our pizza will be ready for pickup in 30-35 minutes, then when he gets there after 40 minutes tell him it will be ready in 10-15 minutes. Then, after he sits outside in his truck in the snow for 15 minutes, tell him it will be another 10-15 minutes, and THEN after another 15 minutes tell him our pizza SHOULD be going in the oven next. After demanding and receiving his money back, he went next door to Best of Thai. This is what you should have done when he called and placed our order: you say, "Sir, we are very busy and your pizza could take up to an hour and a half. If you like we can text you when your pizza is going in the oven." See how easy that is? See how your customers would appreciate being treated with respect like this? The exact same thing happened to us a year ago and I guess we forgot that we told ourselves we would never order from Sahara Pizza again. It's too bad, because we really like your pizza. Unfortunately, never again. read more

Pizza is decent, but the customer service is awful. Sat on hold for ten minutes and then I was hung up on. Called back, sat on hold long enough to walk down and place the order in person. Tried to place the order in person, but was told he was out of ingredients at 7PM on a Saturday. Drove by 90 minutes later and he was still open and handing out pizzas. Don't waste your time. Village Pizza in Roslyn is good and customer service is AWESOME! read more

Wow. A decade of bad reviews. Had my second experience tonight and sorry to say the bad reviews on delays are real. I phoned in an order was told 40 to 50minutes, but ended up being an hour and a half wait. The pizza is ok, but not worth the wait. Two employees on duty were completely overwhelmed and while nice and polite, they could have told me they hadn't even started my order when I arrived an hour after ordering. Cle Elum needs a real pizza restaurant to open. I won't be back. read more

Called at opening time, put on hold for quite some time, then told oven was not turned on yet. Ordered and picked up pizza. It was not fully baked. Even after attempts to finish baking it on a stone in the oven, it was a tasteless pile of mush. Very disappointing. read more

Stopped by for a quick bite and glad we did! The pizzas are freshly made upon ordered so took about 15mins to get our order. We got the Jungle veggies - so good! Loaded with toppings!!!! read more

Good pizza. Bad service every time. Wait on hold forever just for them to end your call. Then when you speak to them they always sound in a bad mood or annoyed, especially if they can't hear your card number over the phone. read more

Well after a very bad experience 4 years ago, we thought we'd try them again. We ordered for delivery and an hour and 1/2 later our pizza came and it was the wrong pizza. The driver took the pizza and went and the correct pizza made and brought it to us. Which was cool of him, but no discount or future discount. So needless to say we will not be patronizing this establishment again. read more

If you're passing through Cle Elum, skip this place. My family and I have been ordering pizzas from Sahara for the past 3 years & I am proud to say we will NEVER be a customer here again. We picked up three pizzas this evening, one being the Jungle Veggie, which should have a variety of veggies on it including artichoke hearts & zucchini, both of which weren't on our pizza. My mom called in & talked with Mariah. Throughout the entire conversation she was severely argumentative & disrespectful - eventually cursing at my mom, telling her she doesn't give a f**k. read more

My family stays at Suncadia a couple times a year. This is my go to spot for a hot meal after we pull into Cle Elum. Maybe it's having an empty stomach after traveling but I really like the pizza here. They don't skimp on the toppings, the pies come out piping hot and well done, it's a quick and easy kind of place, and the specials are pretty good. I think this is my favorite pizza delivery/takeout place in Washington. They moved locations a while ago and the new place doesn't have tables so be aware that some of the pictures are out dated. read more

Has changed ownership several times. Greasy (I mean swimming in grease), low quality ingredients. I live in the area, and had taken my family there - two hours to get two pizzas. Terrible service, they cook everything one at a time, and if you are an in "restaurant" patron a simple order will take an hour. I've eaten there plenty of times and have finally sworn that I have had enough. The food is bad, service incompetent and expen$ive. If you want a good pizza goto Nitro's across the street. Update: There have been two shifts, first new "owners". Then another round of "new owners". Meh.....it's mediocre. Only difference is now everything gets burned read more

I ordered my pizza and I was told it was going to be an hour, I was ok with that, it was really like almost two hours. I called to ask where my order was and their response was " should have arrived quite awhile ago. Called back and talked to two different people and no one seemed to have any clue of what was going on with my order. I finally got my order and the pizza was ice cold and the order was incomplete! If you can't deliver when your supposed to at least make sure the order is complete for crying out loud! Called back after order arrived they did try and remedy the situation by giving me a free pizza the next time so I did appreciate that aspect of the service! The pizza was decent, it was just really late and really cold! Probably would not get delivery again but would stop and get pizza. Update-- I called to redeem my comp pizzas after my pizza showed up late and cold, I was told by management it would be noted to my account and I would have to pay the delivery charge, seems reasonable right? Upon calling I was told there was nothing noted to my account and they would be happy to offer me 25% off of my order! Wow customer service fail times two Sahara pizza. I would skip this place and choose to eat else where I would give them no stars but the minimum rating you can give is one star. It's no wonder this place is constantly under new management no one thus far has been qualified to run this business. If you want to stay in business I would strongly recommend working on your customer service and don't offer what you can't deliver! Probably won't be ever recommending or eating at this place again! read more
