Walk into Sahara in Wakad, Pune, and it’s like stepping into your favorite travel memory—warm Arabian charm mixed with global dishes that surprise you in the best way. Think bold flavors with creative twists, cocktails that taste like adventure, all under glowing chandeliers and intricate wall designs that make every corner feel special. It’s the spot owner Girish Shedge dreamed up from his worldwide trips, teaming up with NV Hospitality’s Navin Patrick to nail that exotic-yet-welcoming feel.
Whether you’re grabbing lunch solo, sharing a romantic dinner, or celebrating with your crew on the rooftop, Sahara just works. Cozy ground floor for intimate chats, open rooftop for starry nights—the kind of place where time slips away over good food and better stories.
Astys set up a smart two-level system that matches Sahara’s energy perfectly, no matter the mood or moment.
On the ground floor restaurant, Work Pro Entar 8 speakers deliver warm, even coverage for intimate dining, backed by the punchy HH Electronics TRS 1000 subwoofer for subtle depth, with the DT 1000 Beta 3 amplifier powering it reliably and the Yamaha MG06 mixer giving precise control over mellow tracks that let conversations shine during meals. Up on the rooftop haven, N12 Beta 3 weatherproof speakers fill the open-air space with crisp, expansive sound, paired with another HH Electronics TRS 1000 subwoofer for those sunset bass vibes, and the BA 240P Beta 3 amplifier keeps everything steady through breezy nights.
Downstairs, its smooth world beats wrapping your starter like a cozy blanket—food tastes better, laughs come easier. Head upstairs and the sound expands as the sun drops, turning casual hangs into those “remember that night?” rooftop stories, bass hitting just right under the stars.
Astys calibrated each zone separately: ground floor stays conversational for family dinners, rooftop builds energy for celebrations. Speakers blend into the exotic decor, installation was seamless and everything’s weather-ready for Pune’s unpredictable evenings. Now the playlist becomes part of the journey—from chill fusion tracks to lively anthems that match the chandeliers’ glow.
Sahara turns meals into moments because every detail sings together—flavors that linger, hospitality that warms you up, and sound that pulls it all into focus. Ground floor intimacy, rooftop freedom, perfect audio bridge. It’s Wakad’s new go-to where you leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit. Global tastes, Arabian soul, soundtrack included.
