I have been there several times because I love Mediterranean food. It did not disappoint. I have never sat in the dinning room though. I ordered to go always. I can't speak to their service, but I do know the food is authentic and delicious. read more

Update: We went back almost immediately because we couldn't stop talking about the first meal, and somehow it was every bit as amazing. The lamb shank was absurdly tender, the baba ganoush was smoky and rich, and yes, the ezme, beets, and pita remain mandatory ordering. But what really sets this place apart is the heart behind it. On a hard night for our family, a simple unexpected dessert brought genuine comfort and a smile when we needed it most. They don't just feed your stomach here. They feed your soul. I would go to war for this restaurant. An absolute gem, genuinely some of the best food I've had in the area!! I don't write glowing reviews lightly, but this place absolutely earned one. From the moment the food hit the table, it was obvious this was something special. Every single thing we ordered, from the mezze sampler to the drinks to dessert, felt like the best version of itself it could possibly be. Not one weak note. Even the pita bread was memorable. Warm, soft, fresh, lightly charred, and worthy of praise in a meal FULL of standout dishes. The mezze sampler was EXTRAORDINARY. The beet and goat cheese was one of those bites that makes you stop mid-conversation. The goat cheese was fresh, creamy, rich, and perfectly balanced by roasted beets that were unbelievably sweet and luscious. Honestly, they were almost candy-like. I don't know what they did to prepare them, but they were incredible. The spicy vegetable dip, Esme, was bright, vibrant, and bursting with flavor. Fresh, zippy, and balanced with just enough heat. The eggplant dip was equally impressive, with a silky texture, subtle tartness, mellow tomato notes, and that gentle pleasant bitterness that makes eggplant so satisfying when it's done well. The hummus was ridiculously creamy and rich with tahini, giving it a deep nutty flavor that made it one of the best hummus dishes I've personally had. We also ordered the Turkish manti, and they were fantastic. Little handmade parcels topped with cool yogurt and warm spiced oil that brought everything together beautifully. We didn't even manage to take a picture because by that point we were so completely absorbed in the meal that all manners disappeared and we just devoured them immediately. No photo. No pause. Just instinct. That might be the strongest endorsement I can give. The mint lemonade was perfect for a warm day. Bright, refreshing, tart, cooling, and mint-forward without being overly sweet. It tasted clean, balanced, and incredibly refreshing. Dessert completely sealed the deal. The Turkish revani was unbelievably soft, soaked through with milk, and had that luscious almost tres leches quality that makes every bite melt away. The fresh berries and raspberry sauce gave it just enough brightness and acidity to balance the sweetness beautifully. I had a cup of black tea with it, and the combination of cake, berries, and tea was one of those simple little moments that feels kind of magical. The restaurant itself is beautiful. Tasteful decor, warm atmosphere, and thoughtful design that feels welcoming without trying too hard. The service was friendly, attentive, and genuine. More than anything, the whole place feels like a labor of love. What blows my mind most is that this restaurant has apparently been here for over two years, and we somehow only just discovered it. We were legitimately mad at ourselves thinking about how many meals we could have had here already. Now we're just trying to make up for lost time!! For roughly $80 for two before tip, the value was outstanding. At first glance, the menu might look a little upscale, but once the food arrives, it makes perfect sense. The quality more than justifies the price. I've had good Mediterranean food before. This is operating on a completely different level. Without question, this is some of the best Mediterranean food I've had anywhere in the area, and I can't wait to go back. read more

Another amazing restaurant in Hudson Valley. This was unassuming from the outside. The stores next to them are either empty or closed and the location, it's next to the Home depot, that when you park in front of the place, you feel like you're the only one eating there.. not a good first impression for a good restaurant. We went for dinner at 6 pm on a Saturday, we thought we were the only ones there, again because of the empty parking lot. There were a few people already seated. We didn't have any reservations, and I thought - Why would we? We started with the appetizers, babaganoush and calamari. Both were good. My wife and I had the mixed platter for two. All the meats were tasty, seasoned well and weren't dry. For dessert, I tried the affogato, espresso over ice cream and that hit the spot. Overall, we were impressed. People did start coming in after 6 so it's best to reserve a table especially if you have more than 4 in your party. The don't serve liquor so it's BYOB!! For some, that might be the important thing to note . read more

Sara's is relatively new and a hidden gem. Having traveled some in Lebanon, I am both drawn to the food and a little critical of authenticity. Sara's does not disappoint. A menu with enough variety to meet the needs of their audience without overwhelming. The mix grill was very good as was the lamb shank. I was a little underwhelmed with the octopus, but optimistic that wasn't the norm. The absolute star of the night was a saffron poached pear. It was totally amazing, unique and if nothing else, worth the trip. read more

There are new owners, same kitchen staff. Seating is prompt, and a carafe of water is left on the table. Mehmet is gracious and professional. More than happy to describe the entrées. The restaurant has an upscale look to it. Attractive artwork on the walls, the tables and chairs are also comfortable and functional. The dinner and flatware are very attractive and distinctive. The food is presented very artfully; it almost seems a shame to eat it. There's a new two part lunch menu. Pick one course from the top and one from the bottom. It becomes a complete meal. The chicken soup with vegetables is a meal in itself. Very filling and tasty. Along the wall is seating for a family gathering. read more

Overall food was very good except somewhat dry. Then salad arrived without dressing and although I ordered extra Tahini for the Falafel, it barely had any. Other wise, the beef and lamb were moist and flavorful. read more

We enjoyed the casual ambiance, the service was ok, and the food was fairly decent. Walked away feeling fine. A few hours later, fire in the hull. Core clutching chaos. Had to drop the kids off at the pool. Several times. I have a food handlers certificate and I suspect it was the egg based sauce that came with the calamari. read more

Everything was absolutely amazing at Sara's! The octopus was so fresh and the dips in the mezze platter were delicious. Mehmet was such a lovely server as well. We stumbled upon Sara's after a day of errands and I felt very underdressed. It is a bit more of a casual dressy vibe. read more

Went for Christmas Eve dinner and it was perfect. The ambiance is serene and beautiful. The hospitality was excellent. We had the hummus and tzatziki appetizer with warm pita bread. I had the manti as a main dish, which is a middle eastern comfort food for me and it didn't disappoint. I kept sneaking the grilled vegetables from the kebab platter the rest of my family was eating--so good! For dessert the kunafa was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Lovely food, ambiance, and service! Can't wait to go back! I've both sat in and ordered take out-both were so delicious and fresh!

I didn't expect much for a strip mall restaurant but it was delicious! Tastefully decorated and the service was amazing- hard to say what was better- we decided in apps for the table- grape leaves were spectacular- best I've ever had. Really fresh tzatziki and hummus - we loved the salads and are definitely going back to try more dishes. Tables were well spaced and decor was lovely . Perfect for takeout or a romantic dinner! read more

Good food here. I stayed safe & ordered a Kofta ground beef. Not over cooked, not dry. The house hot sauce is a nice complement to the tzatziki sauce. The chef's salad is yummy. And I finished off with a baklava with vanilla ice cream. Good meal all in all. I'd come back & try something else. read more

Music is so good. Service is excellent. The food is fantastic. The pita bread tasted so fresh and the mixed grill was so good. Every meat was flavorful and the rice and vegetables were cooked perfectly read more

Delicious chicken souvlaki. Attentive and lovely staff. Beautiful photos of the Mediterranean on the walls

Lovely new restaurant in Wappingers, you must try. A very extensive menu of wraps, salads, soups, hot and cold appetizers,something for everyone. They also offer kids menu and lunch specials. Service is great, you'll get to talk to the welcoming owner of this family own restaurant. Two of us had the Adana Kebab, skewered ground lamb, delicious, served with rice, grilled tomato and green ( hot) pepper, a huge portion. We both agreed was delicious. Our friend had the Falafel wrap and loved it. We share a yummy rice pudding and the owner served us complimentary coffee and tea. All in all a delicious dinner. We will go back, and try the other delicious looking dishes. read more

Just finished our first meal at Sara's - excellent! A very nice change from all the local Italian and Mexican offerings. After starting with a large delicious appetizer of baba ganoush with pita triangles the four of us all had different meals - lamb chops, Adana kebab, Chicken kebab and Ratatouille. All were superb. We finished off with rice pudding and pistachio baklava - presentation was beautiful, but the taste was the real super star, among of the best ever. We will be back! read more

Five very enthusiastic stars for Sara's Mediterranean Grill. We frequently eat here for lunch and have been consistently impressed by the quality and presentation of the food as well as the genuine kindness and hospitality of the team. Each time we walk in, we are greeted with a smile. This restaurant is managed by a team of people who seem to deeply care about our community and providing great service. If you're looking for a healthy option in the area that is fresh and always delicious, then Sara's is the place for you. My go-to's are the chicken shish lunch special or the chicken wrap. Their lentil soup always hits the spot, especially on these chillier winter days. read more

Incredible! Tucked away in a shopping plaza next to Home Depot on 9 in Wappingers is a gem of a restaurant featuring Turkish and Kurdish cuisine. The restaurant is beautifully appointed in blue & white and immaculate. We had the lunch special that included an appetizer and main course for $16.95. I had the grape leaves (divine), and my husband had the baba ganoush (delish). We both ordered the chicken kebab, which came with wonderful salad and aromatic rice. How good was it? My husband always leaves 2/3 of his food on the plate. There was nary a grain of rice left. The dessert menu looked great, but we had no room for it. We WILL be back. And service was excellent. read more

I cannot say enough great things about this restaurant. The food is absolutely delicious, the service so kind and attentive and the restaurant itself nicely decorated and clean. We were a group of 10 for dinner. First we shared a number of different hot and cold appetizers - every single one was delicious. The calf's liver was some of the best I've ever had at a Turkish restaurant (and we have been to many). We also each ordered a main dish - everyone (including some picky/particular folks in the group) absolutely loved the food. We were so full but couldn't stop eating! The portions are generous, all of the food is so fresh and flavorful. We particularly loved the Adana special and the manti. We had such a lovely time and will definitely be back here! Thank you Sara's! read more
