Sahara

The food was phenomenal again.   A few pieces of advice - beware of the "market price" on the lamb chops....that was definitely a $35.00 gasp when we got the bill.   Certainly we should have asked but last time we were here not even a year ago I remember them being around $19.00.   Second, lock your car......even in front of the restaurant my friend's car was broken into.   Luckily there was nothing of value in the car and the thiefs were probably very disappointed

WOW!  My wife and I travel all over the US and South America for work.  We eat out about 90 % of our meals.  I will write a review for the best places that we find in our journeys.  Usually we will only give 5 stars once or twice a year.  Last year we did not find one in the US that was worthy of it, but ate at many fine places that came close.  Everything we ordered was fresh, made from scratch, season to perfection and it would put you into another state of consciousness.  The service could not be beat. We will stop by Sahara every time we come through Michigan City, IN.

I came here with my sister for the lunch buffet.  

A caveat- we were the first people there, so we had the absolutely freshest food possible.  

The food was amazing.  

They had falafel, an eggplant dish with tomato sauce and chickpeas, gyro and chicken meat, basmati rice, salad, and lentil soup.  Also- pita and hummus, red pepper hummus, and baba ganouj.  

All this for $8/person.  

Definitely rivals any of the ethnic buffets I've been to in Bloomington.
