Not in Melbourne?


Sahara

High above street level in the middle of Melbourne’s CBD, Sahara’s warm atmosphere is a welcome reprieve from the pace and crowds of city life.

Editorial


You might never have known it was there: an unassuming doorway wedged between shopfronts and a narrow staircase is the only coy invitation to this inner city sanctuary. One floor up, and the hodgepodge “arts and crafts” decor and exposed brick walls make for a quiet and cosy meeting place. Sahara is perfect for laid back food sharing affairs. Here, customers make the most of a working lunch, or drop in for an after-work glass of red.

You'll instantly recognise the menu here where meals come served without jargon or pretension. Notice that your souvlaki or chicken burger comes with a difference. A gourmet attention to detail makes its way into the simplest of dishes - chips are made on the premises from chopping to seasoning, and their mayonnaise is a special in-house recipe. The most popular dishes include Moroccan lamb stew, and the antipasto platter is great for casual dining and sharing. Vegetarian options include a roast vegetable salad with goat's cheese, with mains ranging from $14.50- $29.50. Sahara is also available for functions, catering for light meals and drinks as well as larger groups with bookings.
