| ★★★★ I had chicken shwarme (?) sandwich and it was amazing. Zafran, lemon, garlic and yogurt sauce had bold flavor, and well balanced. This cozy little place is worth your visit. Side salad was very fresh and light, but well seasoned. Great personal service, cute decor. I will visit again. |

| ★★★ Shwerma plate and baba ganouge. Service is average and scenery is typical fastfood style. The above with a water was about $15 which I thought was a little expensive for a fastfood style setting. I would proly fork out the extra bucks and goto olive tree or something. |

| ★★★★ Somebody compared this place to Zankou Chicken, LOL. If you are an Armo or like Armenians, go to Zankou. I go there myself. If you want to support a Muslim brother and/or his family and like good halal food, go to Sahara Felafel. They have the goods. |

|
| ★★★★★ Pros: They probably have the best shawerma plates. Try their combo shawerma plate and you will agree with me. This place has had a little face-lift which is good.
Cons: Seating area is a little small. Plates are a little expensive but definitely worth it. It may take some time before you get your order, so you can try what I do: Call when you are on your way there. |

| ★★★★★ For $13 I had the combo plate (chicken and beef). It came with falafel, pita bread, hummus, salad, and rice as well. There was some garlic sauce and spicy sauce to the side as well. There was a lot of food and it was very filling. The price is reasonable. This was the best shwarma meat I have tried, it was very tender and juicy. There are only a few tables inside and its more like a cafe. Don't go there for the ambiance, go there for the food. You won't be disappointed. The falafel was excellent as well. |

| ★★★★★ Consistently good. Excellent chicken shawarma plates & sandwiches. Great falafel as well. Prices are a tad high but within reason; also they only take cash. |

| ★★★★ Assalamu alaykum,
This is another of those small mom and pops places. The food wa very good. I recommend the plates, especially the chicken plans and combination plate I think it was called...the shawarmas were excellent and the falafal were crispy and well done.
I have not heard about the meat not being hand slaughtered; inshallah I will ask. The only down side the music and videos on their TV. |

|
| ★ the chicken used to be hand slaughtered but has been changed to machine cut(chickens cut by a machine, not a muslim or even a christian or a jew, with a tape recording of bismillah in the background) probably due to cost cuts |

| ★★★★★ When ever I get a craving for shawarma while cruising around Arabistan, Anaheim, I always drop by Saharah. The Beef and Chicken Shawarmas are the best I've had. Oh, the Mango ice cream is good too. Brother Mahmud (the owner) is very nice. they cater as well. Definitely try it out if you haven't already. Salam. |

| ★★★★★ We ate there the other day. The food was very good. This is a small business that offers halal foods. They guys were very friendly and worked hard to get everyones food to them on time. We are fortunate that they are open 7 days a week and about 10 or 12 hours a day.
I think the prices are very fair. Considering halal meat cost about 30% more than regular meat. Regular meat is a mix of how many cows? 100? That's how come they can charge less for their sandwiches. |

|
| ★★★ I paid a whopping $4 for a single sandwich. Why, oh why do all these shawarma restaraunts charge SO MUCH??? Now back to the shawarma sandwich review. The sandwich could have used a little more meat for the price. The sauce was nice. Unfortunately a single sandwich was not filling enough for me. This place would be too expensive for lunch or even dinner. Everything is priced way too high! The owners should work on making the interior a comfortable place to stay and eat in. BTW Zankou Chicken does NOT serve anything Haram like Pork or Alcohol. Go see and taste for yourself. If anyone is interested in a great tasting shawarma sandwich but are shaky about Zankou, then try Sassoon Chicken in Orange. |

| ★★★★★ "This restaurant specializes in Middle Eastern dishes, such as shawarma, tarna, falafel, etc. The food is excellent. Much better than Zankou's non-halal food. The restaurant is in a shopping center across the street from Sinbad Ranch Halal Market." |
