Sahara Imbiss in Berlin

This is the second time I've gotten sick while eating in a Sahara imbiss. The quality has declined and this in all the Sahara imbiss unfortunately. The first time I thought it was a coincidence and wanted to try again with this restaurant. Symptoms of tourista, I have traveled everywhere and have never been as sick as here. However there was no meat so it is surely a hygiene problem On top of that I waited almost 15 minutes to get my falafel without being able to sit down

Since I live right around the corner from the Sahara Imbiss, I go there often and it's super delicious. I can only recommend it!!!!!

Great prices and the food is amazing! The peanut sauce is incredible and recommend any of their sandwiches

Can't go wrong with Sahara! Get the falafel tofu sandwich with spicy sauce!

We ate here with friends and it was so delicious but on top of that our friend’s phone fell in the drain right in front of the shop. We called literally everyone: police, firemen… and all of them said they can’t help. The workers there were the only ones that helped and they worked on it for an hour straight, with tools that they asked from other shops. It’s hard to find people like this in Berlin and we appreciate it so much, they deserve the best!!

PLEASE HEALTH OFFICE COME HERE! The employee on Monday plays with his hands on the cell phone and then touches the bread for kofta!!! I don't want to eat your bacteria! Throw the bread on a table and prepare the meat! Put on gloves! Belly ache of death!

It used to be really tasty here when the sandwiches were still really filled. Nowadays you can only get flat, half-full bags (for more money) - in my case today, 2-3 thin slices of halloumi, 1 half slice of tomato + a bit of iceberg lettuce + peanut sauce = 5 euros. Annoying!

The chicken sandwich is more like a pita with iceberg lettuce and one slice of tomato. On the plus side, there is a lot of sauce and it is delicious. The size is very small. There are better places in the area

You can't go wrong with it. Sandwiches or platters quickly but well prepared with fresh ingredients and served with a friendly smile. Their hummus, peanut and spicy sauces are very fresh and tasty, I love those, especially the chili sauce, which does the job! Easy going, friendly and good quality with still a reasonable price. A favourite through the years...

I always give the Sahara a chance. There are far better falafels in the area. There has always only been iceberg lettuce and tomatoes without dressing as a salad side dish. Three tomato slices have now become just half. The kofta were some kind of frozen patties that weren't fried well and were soggy. I had a Köfte falafel plate. The shop is somehow becoming more and more neglected and the table outside was very dirty with dried peanut sauce, even though it was only shortly after opening at noon (i.e. after work and not cleaned before opening). I think this was my last chance for Sahara.

First of all: I always get Falafel Halloumi Magali Mix and they usually taste good. So far I've been to five different locations, and it's extremely dirty in all of the branches, which is noticeable but doesn't really bother me much. But the last three times the employees were so preoccupied with their personal problems that they didn't manage to prepare halfway decent sandwiches, which unfortunately were tasty (black halloumi, falafel balls fried so hard that they were used as projectiles at a demonstration could, etc.) If it stays like that, I'll look for something else in the future.

Too greasy and too much peanut sauce

Too greasy and too much peanut sauce

The food cannot score points with either quality or good taste. The kofta are already pre-cooked and tk. Also burnt black. The dish was topped with definitely too MUCH SAUCE. Probably to cover up the bad taste of the meat. I wonder how this establishment got 4.6 stars. I have abdominal pain.. You have to know.

This store probably won't win any awards for friendliness, cleanliness and ambience in the foreseeable future. But the food is great. Fresh ingredients and quick preparation. A little too much use of the generally excellent peanut sauce on the sandwiches. The companion particularly liked the crusty bread. Good price/performance. Next time we're in the area: we'd be happy to come back.

love Sahara, had a sandwich recently though that was only half filled, three falafel with iceberg lettuce and one tomato, no vegetables — maybe an off day but disappointing from a Kiez fave :(

I just wasted 30 minutes of my time trying to order from this place via a delivery app, and each time my order is canceled "because the staff did not see it in time". How about not offering services via a platform if you aren't checking for incoming orders? I guess I'll be sticking with Omdur then, their food is good and they are reliable.

Döner Makali was only full of potatoe. Never got here if you want to have the real taste

I ordered a halloumi, paid 6 euros and then got a halloumi with “real” chicken (!). The shop itself describes itself (according to a large outdoor advertisement) as “vegan/vegetarian”. Maybe it's my mistake for thinking they don't serve meat, but if there's something I'm definitely not ordering, even if the staff say so after the fact, it's CHICKEN! So be careful if you follow a vegan/vegetarian diet. It's better to look under the peanut sauce again before you bite into the food.

The peanut butter sauce is to die for!! The staff is always friendly and I like the simple vibe of the place

After a long time, I gave the store another chance. Takeaway sandwich with ice cold salad and smothered in peanut sauce. Because of all the sauce, the sandwich falls apart after the first bite. The interior looks pretty dirty and run down. A pity!

Super mega delicious falafel hallumni sandwiches with peanut sauce.

The staff (Wildenbruchstr.) is always nice and friendly, but not very hygienic. They take paid or sneeze in hand, turn around and take the pita bread and everything else without gloves :( No matter what you order, you get it with about 3 dl of super cold peanut sauce. The food then gets cold. The place is so rancid, dirty and run down that it's probably the last time I ordered there today. Just ugh.

Really nice food and a lot of vegan vegetarian options available

So delicious. Huge and filling Sahara flavor

Wow! Best „Falafel“ I ever had!❤️🌈☮️🌌🎨🍀🍃🪷soo delicious:))) very fair prices

Eating out is delicious but the decor needs a splash of color and different seating

We had the Sarah plate for €9.50. Unfortunately the food is covered in peanut sauce. The vegetables themselves were delicious. Falafel too crispy. Halloumi went like this, a bit chewy. The hot sauce is really spicy. Maybe the sandwich is a better choice. The place smelled like old grease.

Amazing!!!! Stumbled across this place late night and it was super yummy authentic delicious food. We got a falafel situation with halloumi and salad and a bunch of veggies. So amazing && the staff working there are lovely! Highly recommend and it’s super affordable

Great and affordable meals, Haloumi is particularly excellent. Generous portions on the platters. They go heavy on the peanut sauce, so ask for less if thats not your thing. Decor and music are great too, all around gem.

Bester Falafel in Moabit!! Humbaba, who?! Man bekommt sogar manchmal ein leckeres Quarkbällchen und die Stimmung ist immer top! Keine nervige Warteschlage und korrekte Preise!

Mega lecker aber in den letzten zwei Jahren haben sie den Preis für die Falafel fast verdoppelt. Nächstes Jahr kostet sie dann 8 Euro

Wie überall teuer und schlechter, aber bei Touris beliebt!

Es war zwar sehr lecker, aber der Koch hat ein auf den Boden gefallenes Stück Essen wieder zurück in die Frittöse gepackt. Abenteuerlich - besser nicht zu genau hinschauen!

Immer noch leckeres Fastfood. Gelegentlich stark frequentiert

Preiswertes Essen das besonders mit der leckeren Erdnusssauce überzeugt. Ich esse dort regelmäßig zu Mittag. Die Angebote unterscheiden sich leicht bei den unterschiedlichen Filialen. Soweit ich das einschätzen kann, sind alle Sahara Läden als schnelle Mahlzeit empfehlenswert.

I’m totally in love with this food and place. Amazing! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Richtig richtig lecker! Bin durch Zufall hier gewesen und werde definitiv wiederkommen! Sehr zu empfehlen 👍

Wenn ich in Berlin bin, ist es ein must stop. Unglaublich lecker, immer frisch, toll gewürzt und macht satt. Da ist immer was los aber man muss nie lange warten. Die Soße ist übrigens unglaublich lecker. Also probieren!

Komme immer gern hierher, leckere und günstige Falafel, super leckere Erdnusssoße. Aber die scharfe Soße geht gar nicht, die ist echt too much und überdeckt leider alles.

Considering the price, the food was really good! 👌

Das Essen war gut und lecker. Es gibt ein paar vegane Gerichte und der Preis ist absolut in Ordnung. Die Tische im Außenbereich könnten ein wenig besser gepflegt werden. Was leider echt schade war, ist die unfassbar lange Wartezeit. Mag an einem Sonntag Abend bei gutem Wetter überall sein, aber mit Hunger eher unerträglich 😅

ESPECTACULAR!!!! MUY MUY RICO!!! No me dio tiempo ni a hacer una foto porque lo devoramos en cuestión de segundos!!!! Recomiendo el chicken mackaly y el chicken hallumi!! Son baratos y calidad de los ingredientes!!

It's Sahara. It's delicious. Eat it.

Das beste, was du je in eurem Leben gegessen habt! (aber mit mangosoße bestellen!)

Mittelmäßig. Lieber zum Original gehen oder nach nebenan ins Kilimanjaro.

Pas chère et délicieux 🤩 (la sauce à la pâte d’arachide 🤤)

Essen schmeckt nach altem, zu stark erhitztem Fett, getränkt in Soße. Die Soße überdeckt wenigstens den Geschmack des Fettes. Die Preise sind nun sehr stark angehoben, die Qualität ist eher gesunken. Hygiene ist auch was anderes. Erst Geld anfassen dann Essen und die Servietten, zwischendurch den Finger mit der Zunge befeuchten um die Tüten greifen zu können - etwas sehr eklig. Gibt eindeutig besseres im Kiez.

Sahara Imbiss has become a classic in this neighborhood. This is one of their recent branches. For vegans, there are pita bread sandwiches or platters filled with falafel, tofu and fried vegetables. I like particularly the peanut sauce and the tofu here, which contains exotic spices. Prices have gone up recently, so getting a whole platter for one person plus a drink is almost as pricey as eating at a proper restaurant. (This is a very casual eatery with self-service though.) Actually, one platter can be shared among two people. For me, one sandwich is normally enough! Since most things are deep-fried, the food here is greasy, falling into the category junk/comfort food. This branch is bigger and has more seating than the main branch.

Absolutely ultimately awesome place. I go there in my lunch break from time to time and the falafels are top 🔥 + one of the few places the employees know good English.

Faaaaaaaar from good. Except you’re looking for 2 slices of tomatoes, 1 leaf of salad and some strange looking potatoes buried by 1 litre of way too intense peanut sauce… Oh and it’s super cold in there

Mein Lieblingsimbiss in Lichtenberg. Essen ist immer frisch und preiswert.

Tried last night the vegetarian halloumi falafel and it was extraordinary tasteful! Pretty fast and friendly staff, totally recommend! :)

Great food and prices. Friendly staff

Очень много соуса, даже для такого любителя арахиса как я. Ехала специально с другого конца города, но оно того не стоило

Food is ok, the snack is missing some fresh veggies Liek tomatoes or so for me, and there's too much peanut butter sauce for it to be enjoyable for me.

Love falafel makali! And always friendly stuff :3

Der Falafel ist sehr lecker, mehr kann ich auch nicht sagen da nichts anderes probiert habe .

Love their sandwiches and especially their PB sauce! I think the falafel is just a bit dry

Too much potato. Loved by some, disliked by others

Delicious sandwiches. My favorite is the falafel tofu one. Great place for vegans with good and fairly priced food options. Try it out when you are in the area.

Furchtbar 😞 hier bestellt man eher Sauce mit Falafel. Das Essen muss man unter der ganzen Sauce erst einmal finden. Die Auberginensauce konnte ich auch nicht rausschmecken. Alles endlos fettig. Sry… guter Falafel geht besser

En el queso, en la madre, por encima de los gandules, rikolino, 100% rekomend

I love the peanut sauce falafel sandwich! And the personnel was friendly and generous with the portions!

Das essen ist nur fett! Die Angestellten sind unmotiviert und bereiten mit ihren ungewaschenen raucherhänden das essen zu. Zum glück wir da alles im heißen alten fett zerkocht, sonst hätte ich sicherlich schlimme Hepatitis bekommen!!!

Incroyable, meilleur falafel de ma vie (j'ai pris le falafel + "magali" c'est le combo parfait), sauce mangue, chili, ou peanut butter au choix (j'ai tout pris hahaha trop bon)

Fast and easy. Limited seatings. Nice staff.

المطعم جيد جدا ،المذاق،الإهتمام بالزبائن والنظافة.

Der beste Falafel-Laden auf der ganzen Welt. Super lecker und günstig und sehr symphatische Verkäufer.

Sehr freundlich 😊 und echt lecker nur zu empfehlen

Sahara is the standard that all other places are measured by

This fooooooooddd. I wish I could eat it 5 times a day.

Bestes Essen, vor allem wenn man in der Gegend feiern ist. Stehts gut gelaunte und nette Mitarbeiter und qualitativ hochwertiges Essen! Danke, dass ihr am Wochenende immer so lange offen habt🙏🏾

Der beste Imbiss im Kiez! klare Empfehlung für alle die Gemüse im Brot mögen! Döner war gestern :)

Nice staff, nice food and good prices

Es schmeckt einfach alles köstlich!

Okay i’ve had around 5 doners and this the best one hands down. has the maximum flavor, maximum sauce, best price 😎

Einfach sehr lecker falafel Magali!!

Preislich, geschmacklich bester Sahara Imbis in Berlin. Leider hat sich das rumgesprochen. Geduld mitbringen.

Falafel sind super, sowohl im Sandwich als auch in der Bowl. Die Verkäufer sind sehr nett. Und die Erdnusssoße ist ein Traum!

hat mich vom hocker gehauen billig frisch und einfach lecker ! ein wahrer gaumenschmaus

Very good falafel, the signature peanut sauce makes their sandwiches so much tastier. Always a safe bet for decent food!

Naja. Anfangs lecker wegen der Erdnuss-Soße, aber nach einer Weile merkt man doch, dass alles irgendwie gleicht schmeckt. Kaum Variation, eher eintönig. Und richtig hygienisch sieht die Küche auch nicht wirklich aus. Über die Inneneinrichtung lässt sich auch streiten.

Das einzige was an diesem Laden verwerflich ist , das man sehr lange wartet wenn man zu einer Zeit erscheint wo es viele Besucher gibt

Einer meiner Lieblingsspots in Berlin, wenn es um gesundes „Fast Food“ geht. Die Ersnuss-Soße ist der Hammer und ich bin immer zufrieden.

I go here on a weekly basis - super good

Guter Imbiss für den takeaway Snack. Highlight hier ist die Erdnusssoße. Alles andere ist gut, kennt man aber schon.

Gute Speisen zu günstigen Preisen

so yummy. Had a "Sahara-Teller" on Sunday and now I crave more. Hope to be back soon (unfortunately I live a bit further away)

Ich bin Kunde seit dem ersten Tag. Wahnsinnig netter Service und angemessene Preise, die logischerweise im Laufe der Zeit etwas angezogen haben. Ganz toll und immer wieder gerne :)

Very delicious vegan/vegetarian food and really big portions to be full. Very friendly personal and good fair price. Must be visited.

I LOVE the peanut butter sauce they make 😋

Stippvisite in Berlin, hier kurz angehalten, Essen geholt, war gut.

Die beste Falafel der Stadt zu einem unglaublichen Preis, das Personal ist immer gut und der Service ist schnell. 10/10 empfehlenswert.

Delicious and cheap real good food. But I would come oftener if I could pay by card

Hab ihn letztes Mal nachdem ich bei Al Safa betrogen worden bin zum ersten Mal probiert und muss sagen: Sehr sehr lecker! Das wird unser neuer Stamm Imbiss sein

Fand's leider nicht so gut. Fade vom Geschmack und ganz schön klein der Halloumi. Ewige Wartezeit!

Also wer die Preise und Qualität super findet kennt sich in der Gegend überhaupt nicht aus. Der Laden ist ja mittlerweile auch eine Kette. Lecker klar, Erdnuss Soße und frisiert ist es immer ;) 2 Sterne sind für die nette Bedienung :D

Super lecker! Kann Falafel empfehlen im Sandwich!

How the make it so tasty it's one of this city biggest mysteries.
