Tabouli Salad
Michel S.

I was here for the CAA race and I was looking for something that was different and this restaurant caught my attention. When I looked at the reviews, it solidified my decision. I ordered their salad and lentil soup. Both items were amazing in flavor and very well done. The service was good and even when I asked to be moved because the AC was hitting me directly he moved me without any problems. The ambiance or restaurant is very spacious and clean. If you are in the area and wonder what to that is different? Now you know where to go!

What an unexpected dinner. We were hunting for aliens and ended up in Roswell. When we started getting desperate and hungry for food we looked up a bunch of restaurants and none of them really caught our attention until we saw Sara's. It looked the most delicious and healthy at the same time. We were greeted by a philipino man that was so darn kind. He was customer service times 1000. He made the experience amazing. Once the food came and we took our first bite, we knew we made the right decision. Sooo glad we found this chill Mediterranean place.

Lamb shank

Having the same name spelled the same way was what really intrigued me to pay them a visit. Also the Mediterranean cuisine too... The restaurant is very unassuming being attached to a motel but the decor is simple and clean. Reminds me that it might have been a breakfast joint at some point cuz of the way the booth/table was set up. We tried many things, the eggplant and the falafel appetizers were amazing and oh so tasty. We ordered the lamb shank, the lamb pan, the beef kofta wrap and the chicken shawarma bowl. Everything was well seasoned and meats were tender. Highly recommend if you're in town chasing some aliens, to come here and give them a try. The service was attentive and friendly!

Chili sauce
Earlene W.

Food was delicious and staff very friendly. I had the vegetarian wrap and my husband had the chicken shawarma wrap. The Mediterranean salad was crisp and fresh and the lentil soup hot and very tasty especially with the crunchy pita croutons. We asked for chili sauce which they make to order and it was fantastic!! Definitely took the food to another level.

I can't even with how freaking GOOD this food is! I mean I'm plotting routes back thru NM n the future so I can come back. We ordered it to go, but I ran into use the restroom and everyone was so kind. It also smelled amazing! Sorry I don't have more photos but if you are roadtripping and have a cooler plan for leftovers.

Menu

Stopped in earlier an grabbed a couple of gyro wraps or what I would call a gyro. This is not a Greek place but a Mediterranean place. I didn't realize there was a difference(I apologize for tht). The pita was very soft and pliable. The meat was cut in nice sized squares with plenty of it. The twist for me was grilled onion which added a nice flavor. Along with tomato and tzatziki sauce. The wrap comes with your choice of fries, salad or soup. It was lentil soup. Opted for fries and a side of rice. The rice had an awesome flavor. Not sure what it was, but it was mighty taste. Best part it was about a mile from where we are staying. The ambiance was defiantly Mediterranean. Very reasonable pricing as well. Great choice for this evening.

This is the most amazing mint tea I  had at Alibaba in El Paso

I'd like to say Sarah's Café and Grill is good if it were a food truck. Most every Middle Eastern restaurant I've been into serves lamb chops. They do not. It's a very limited menu and I believe a bit overpriced. If you order a dinner for instance, one chicken kebab skewer with rice(that's all you get) is almost $20, if you want extra sauce oh, that'll cost you extra sir. Would you like the house specialty rice sir? that's also an up charge. Order the hummus and they give you one pita if you want more than that that'll be an up charge - Up charge city. The mint tea? add some fresh mint please.

Sara's is a surprising spot. Me and my girlfriend were passing through and saw this place had some of the best reviews in the area. After trying it, we understood why. The staff were friendly and the food was quite delicious. They even have wacky alien themed drinks. Which, to our surprise, were not just a gimmick. They actually tasted good! If you're in the area, definitely recommend stopping to get a bite here. You won't regret it. Oh! And don't forget to get a selfie with the wooden alien statues right next to their parking lot.

Mint tea hot and iced ! Tasty !

It was a really good meal ! I am so happy Roswell has a mediterranean restaurant!!! Everyone was nice: the hostess and the 2 servers that helped us. The restaurant is in an older building but it is clean. We were definitely full when we left. We started with the cheese Fatayer. Then, I had the gyro. They were generous with the tzatziki sauce. Beware... this is a wrap/sandwich that drips. The meat and onions were perfectly cooked. My husband had the lamb shank and the meat was tender. Generous portions !! If you love med cuisine do not skip this place !

Gyro salad, hummus and remaining falafel!

My family of 7 who are pizza lovers stopped in while strolling Midtown. I browsed some restaurants…read moreonline prior to our venture to Ruidoso and this was on our list of places to try thanks to the many raving reviews. The place was packed when we arrived, but gratefully time was on our side and we were able to be seated promptly without a wait. They have a walk up counter outside where you can place to-go orders. Just come back in 15 minutes after ordering (they won't call ya). Looks simple, divey and well loved and the crowds are the proof! We ordered jumbo pizzas and a couple of cheese slices for my 10-year old. The slices are huge, definitely only need 1 for a kiddo. We didn't know lol. Slices are giving New York, so fold in half and bite. If you have toddlers that typically eat 1 slice, I would even say order 1 slice to cut in half. Mom of 5 here ‍...you're welcome lol. Lemonade was fresh squeezed, sweetened, but naturally on the tart side. My kids weren't a fan, but I thought it was excellent! They don't know what's up. But if you have kids, maybe yours won't like it either lol. I enjoy Gingerale but usually don't get it because most brands contain high fructose corn syrup amongst other junk. I was unaware of the Boylan brand until today! Enjoyed it very much with our meal. Was light and refreshing. We'll look for it elsewhere now. I like gourmet pizza and my husband doesn't. This was a good middle. "Not too gourmet" he says. I say it's a step above the major chains. Thin crust and lighter without all the bloat to follow, but still a little greasy lol. Take that as you may! Highly recommend this stop for pizza lovers. We'd come back! Staff was attentive though the place was and seems constantly busy. When I hear cafe I don't think pizza, but now I just might lol. No complaints!

This is a locals favorite, and you will see lines that span several people. I am not a fan of thin…read morepizza, hence the 3 stars. I also didn't find the flavors to be appealing. We tried a kale soup with sausage, it tasted healthy, if you know what I mean. The pizza also tasted healthy, despite being full of meats. I wonder if I misread the menu and this is a vegan place, or a health store. The place looks a little bit like a ski shop. Our waitress was nice but other random staff members were nicer. At some point, a podcast started playing and replaced the emo/skater playlist. This place is weird. I think this is a thin crust pizza town...
