The overview

Aurora's Lebanese home kitchen

Sahara has served the Denver metro's most enduring Middle Eastern table for more than three decades, a family-run kitchen turning out Moroccan and Lebanese cooking from generations-old recipes. Hummus, tagines, kebabs, and fresh-baked pita anchor a menu that leans hard on quality ingredients and traditional technique.

Warm, family-owned, and known for genuinely accommodating vegetarian and gluten-free diners, Sahara has become the area's go-to for authentic Middle Eastern food and hospitality.
