Cafe Sahara Mediterranean Cuisine

Cafe Sahara is a very clean and elegant restaurant with delicious food and atmosphere… it also has a wine tasting bar. The owner is Sue and she is the nicest hostess. We ordered 2 falafel platters to start, lamb dinner, 2 chicken dishes for our teens, Greek salad for myself, a bottle of wine and feasted. It was a very filling authentic Mediterranean meal for 4 in a cafe that was warm charming. It felt as if we had a private room yesterday and all the food was prepared by a private chef. This is great for indoor dining coz it’s spaced out between the tables. There’s hand painted cards baklava pistachios in a birds nest desserts here. Dessert was decadent and we finished with 2 espressos and some take home desserts. We will be back will bring family next visit.

Looking for a hot soup and a good sandwich, I found everything I was looking for at this cafe. The soup of the day was a delicious lentil cream, and my sandwich was a fantastic Lebanese shawarma. Simply exquisite.

I have been dining at this restaurant since 2015 and I cannot praise it enough. The food, the staff, the ambiance, the owners - everything is top-notch. The Mediterranean dishes are absolutely delicious and the dining experience is always enjoyable. I highly recommend this place for both dining in and catering for events at home.

I revisited a small hidden gem near my hometown of Clearwater in Largo, FL and decided to take my mother there for lunch. She loves Mediterranean style food, so I chose this cafe for our meal. Upon arrival, we were not welcomed as warmly as I had hoped, so we seated ourselves. Despite the less than enthusiastic greeting, I preferred to focus on the positives. One of those positives was our server, Chris, who was friendly and knowledgeable about their wine selection. When I requested a malbec, Chris brought out a smooth and silky South African Malbec from the wine cellar. The atmosphere of the cafe was quaint and romantic, perfect for a date night or outing with a loved one. My mother even enjoyed the laid-back vibe of the bar side. By the end of our meal, the owner, Sue, had warmed up a bit and even smiled and laughed. A smile goes a long way, Sue! The food at this cafe, including the tabbouleh, soup, and sandwiches, was excellent. I plan to visit again when I return to see my mother this summer. And Chris, save that same bottle of wine for me! - Former Special Agent Davis, U.S. Army
