Sahara — Restaurant in London

I come to this restaurant all the time being someone who lives in St John’s Wood. Often with my meal we are given a side of carrots and cucumber- today I took my one year old and I ordered a full meal for myself and husband and even food for our baby. My baby was getting agitated while waiting for the food so I asked the server kindly if we could have some of the cucumber that they usually give to distract my son and he brought some over (with our food) so really it was hardly eaten… when the bill came at the end I was charged £6 for the cucumber - it was about 5 sticks of cucumber. I questioned the manager who said this is the price of cucumber and what did I expect to pay. It was outrageous and he didn’t budge that 5 slices of cucumber was £6. Wouldn’t visit this establishment again and will be sure to let other locals know that you can’t take a hungry baby to the restaurant without being slapped...

The lamb chops was definitely made days ago or something it was the most toughest thing ever, the knives given doesn't even cut it. The wings were the best, but only gave 3 wings to share, how is that a skewer of wings? The knefe was also microwaved behind the bar. I wonder what they actually cook fresh? Everything seemed microwaved!!! Can of drink 3.50??!!

We stopped here for the first time in years to enjoy a long, slow lazy lunch as we had a few hours to kill. The perfect solution. We ordered a selection of maze which We all enjoyed then rested with mint tea for a while. Then we shared a delicious platter of meats both whole and minced with rice and salads. Following another relaxing period we all enjoyed a classic desert of Lebanese dairy and rose water sprinkled with pistachios, a light, tasty and refreshing desert. The Lebanese coffee had just the right hint of cardomen. The staff were all pleasant and efficient, combined with a bill of around £100 for three people made this a wonderful...
