I enjoy the kibbe naye (raw meat with wheat bulgar and spices. It delicious just like my mother used to make. They only serve it on Saturdays as it is made to order. It's a large portion so if you do not eat all of it the one of the owners will fry it into patties for you to take home. The salads are fresh and delicious - actually everything is! To end the meal I order Arabic coffee and paklava made with walnut which I prefer to pistachios. The only problem is that it is located in a neighborhood with only street parking however it's worth this small aggravation.

We're from Connecticut and came to the Allentown area for a Spartan Race at Blue Mountain Ski…read moreResort. After a long drive, the three of us were starving and wanted something healthy. Sahara Mediterranean Cuisine had great reviews, so we decided to give it a try--and we're so glad we did. We arrived around 5:30 PM, and the restaurant was already busy. The phone was ringing constantly with takeout orders, which is always a good sign. The husband and wife owners greeted us warmly, seated us right away, and brought complimentary water while we looked over the menu. We started with the hummus and pita along with the cheese cigars. Both were outstanding. We were told the hummus is made from fresh chickpeas that are slowly cooked rather than canned, and you can absolutely taste the difference. It was incredibly smooth, creamy, and easily some of the best hummus I've ever had. The fresh pita was the perfect complement. Two people in our group ordered the chicken kebabs with rice and the fresh tomato, cucumber, and red onion salad. I ordered the chicken shawarma with rice. It was my first time having authentic chicken shawarma, and it was phenomenal. Everything was seasoned perfectly, fresh, and full of flavor. I honestly can't imagine how anyone could leave a negative review after eating here. From the moment we walked in until the time we left, the food, service, and hospitality were exceptional. If we weren't racing the next morning, I definitely would have tried one of their cheesecakes. The blueberry and pistachio both looked incredible, and judging by the quality of everything else, I'm sure they would have been just as amazing. Before we left, we spent a few minutes talking with the husband, and it only reinforced how much pride they take in what they do. Allentown is lucky to have a restaurant like this. We have nothing comparable where we're from in Connecticut, and if we lived nearby, this would become a regular stop without question.

Mains were our favorite -the grilled lamb chops-don't be afraid to use your hands. Definitely leave room for dessert, the warm Kunefe paired with Turkish tea are great to share and nicely finish off your meal.

I have driven by this place SO many times on my way to work I decided a couple weeks ago to order…read moretheir food on a Friday as a little treat for my mother and I. It was a busy Friday but I had put my order in before hand and they still went above and beyond in service to make sure I was taken care of in a timely fashion while being hospitable. I didn't feel like just an online order. I was around 20 ish minutes away and getting home the food was still hot and fresh. You can tell it was made with love. They know what people like and they know how to execute it. It's not like a franchise who doesn't listen to specific requests. It felt like both my mother and my own orders were made customized exactly how we asked them to be and they did it thoughtlessly and professionally with heart. I couldn't finish the large portions they gave in their affordable combos but even reheating it the next day in a toaster still hit the same time as the first fresh bite. I actually ended up going there again today and since it was Thursday it wasn't jam packed. When you enter you can see them actually cook all the meals fresh to order and for the price they charge I cannot commend them enough for keeping quality, quantity, and price at the forefront of their business. I got to meet the owner and one of the head chefs since it wasn't too busy (which is ridiculous because everything I've had so far is delicious and mouth watering and just walking into the place smells like a home I'd love to live in) but they were so personable. They have homemade baklava which is to die for and they even went above and beyond to have a conversation with me. When I placed my order I told them I like my stuff extra spicy and had to make some tweaks for what I am doing on my diet (no bread ugh can't wait to be able to eat that again) they not only made the order I had paid for but the owner asked me where I lived and I was able to tell him how delicious his food was he went above and beyond to give me a sample of his spicy chicken over rice (you can see it in the attached picture) he was so appreciative of his customers and so was the chef. They constantly asked me questions to make sure what I ordered was exactly what I was looking for. These are some if the most meticulously kind, thoughtful, and straight up real humans I have met in so long. To be able to order fresh to order food at the price of what McDonald's would charge for frozen disgusting burgers and fries that do not rot is truly a gift given in the small town of alburtis. I wish nothing but the best for them because they have given me nothing but their best. I can't wait to make my way through the entire menu!

There's ample parking in front of the building.

Greeted via a wonderful gentleman Fred , who is also the owner of Mediterranean Grill. He seated us immediately. He took our order we decided to go with a chicken Shawarma wrap And lamb Shawar. Both had a beautiful presentation. We ordered a side dish of grape leaves and a hummus dip. The dip was amazing, smooth and creamy and flavorful, and the grape leaves had just the right touch of flavor, rolled to perfection. The chicken Shawarma was lightly seasoned with a garlic cream sauce. The lamb Shawarma was equally just as good and flavorful. The dessert was a Osmayli - creamy and delicious, not too heavy . The prices are reasonable. When I visit Bethlehem Pennsylvania again I would definitely stop by here and if you are here, I say stop by give it a try you will not be disappointed and you will thank me later Say hello to Fred
