• 3/10/24Sahara District Detroit always has amazing food. From the shawarma to the alfredo, to the kabob. You will never be disappointed.

• 11/9/24Ordered Hummous, Garlic Spread Plate, Chicken Lemon Rice and Sahara Salad with chicken. The bread and dips were delicious and the soup was different yet tasty. The salad was fresh but no lettuce (I missed that), it had all of my favorite items. However, it was drenched in olive oil/lemon juice which spilled all over the bag. Not sure if I could have asked for the dressing to be packaged separately, but recommend it. The chicken that came with it was in a separate box which was nice, but it was dry. Next time, I'd probably get the fattoush and skip the chicken. Portions were generous for all items.

• 11/20/25We ordered 3 platters, a large hummus and received only 1 piece of pita for 3 people. Absurd!
Also, the platters were suppose to come with white bean soup, we did not receive this.
The tabouli was old and wilted
We paid $145 for this and overall the experience was bad

• 5/19/25Every time order from here oil is every where they need better containers . Also the shrimp that comes as an add on isnt worth $10 . Also dont get the salmon as add on its very small . They give alot of chicken though . The food over all has decent flavor . Im not sure if its supposed to be but the shrimp are completely cold

• 1/6/25Ive ordered from Sahara multiple days a week since moving here last March. Today they changed up their menu to charge me extra money for rice - which always came with the Chicken Shawarma menu item free of charge - a small Hummus is $9 AND they changed their pita bread so it's flimsy/thin and half the size.
Sahara is now over charging for items it used to include.
