Let me tell you, it's a recurrent (every 2 weeks) appointment, and I'm about to make my 3rd trip to Sahara this week. Wonderful price for the amount of food you get. The first time I went I was only able to eat about half of my portion. So much chicken! I got the chicken shawarma, and my hubby got the chicken leg lunch special. Wonderful seasoning, well cooked, great hummus, great Greek salad... the pita bread was meh, but I'll forgive it because everything else was great. The inside isn't a 5 star restaurant, but it's serviceable! Good amount of seating. The staff are friendly, open to questions, and very nice overall. They like to keep the line moving, so don't dilly dally. Ha! Overall, I can see why this was one of my friends favorite restaurants, and it's definitely added into my Lexington rotation.

Drive down the street just past Taco Bell and then turn right. Parking spaces are both adjacent to the building as well as across a traffic lane. There is a handicapped space right in front of door. Seating is mix of tables and booths, but there were also a couple seats at the counter in the rear. The menu is above the counter. It offers a wide variety of choices. We placed our order and found a table. We received our food in about 10 minutes. The falafel was crispy outside and warm and flavorful inside. The chicken shawarma was nothing short of exceptional. The flavors were intense and the accompanying salad was fresh and light. The very garlicky hummus was amazingly good. The kofta kebab was another excellent choice. The tzatziki sauce is freshly made and very flavorful. Even the rice was light, fluffy, and flavorful. Yaffa Grill is a true gem to find and certainly deserves a visit.

We were excited…read moreto finally get a reservation, but unfortunately our experience didn't match the expectations for the great things we've heard about this restaurant. We waited 30 minutes past our 9:15 reservation to be seated because we were told the previous reservation would not leave. We had to ask the hostess twice before our table was ready. Once seated, we felt rushed to order. The salatim wasn't replenished until we had nearly finished our entrées. When we asked for more pita with our mains after receiving side orders of hummus, we were asked how many individual pieces we wanted. None of us received the rice that comes with our mains, and when we asked our server just agreed but it was never brought out. My fries were also forgotten and by the time I asked I was told the kitchen had already closed so I couldn't get them. They kindly removed the fries from my bill and gave me a complimentary dessert. Our empty glasses also remained on the table for the entirety of the dinner. At the end of the meal, we all requested separate checks, but three of them were incorrect and had to be fixed. As we were leaving, we could hear the employees cheering because we had left. We greatly appreciated the discount our group received. The food was excellent, but for such an exclusive restaurant we expected a better dining experience.

I ordered the chicken because the waiter suggested it... I never order chicken.. but im glad I did, it was delicious! Sort of sweet salty with amazing pieces of bread that had cooked in the sauce. It came with an assortment of dips, and eachbone was intense and changed the flavor profile for each bite. For dessert I ordered the knafau, sure I spelled that wrong. And hoped for that sweet, crunchy top with cheese pull but it wasn't that it was the creamer version and deconstructed. Kinda felt like it was made in a bowl and not made whole. I'd definitely return tho, skipping dessert.
