Phenomenal portion size and flavors, very kind staff (one time they were closing early, so they offered me a free big tub of lentil soup so it wouldn't go to waste!) They pickle stuff perfectly, and I can't get enough of their garlic spread.

Can't get a better halal wrap consistently. Never disappoints. (Student discounts are great)

The restaurant is clean and well maintained. Nice atmosphere. The food looked nice but could be better in tasting. They did not had salt, pepper for extra spices. Lot of vegetarian options. Clearly labeled options.
Friendly service. Parking is paid so make sure to pay the parking at the installed meters without fail.

Iliana (sorry if I got the spelling wrong) was super helpful and super nice. It was our first time going to Sajj and I’m glad to say I will 100% be going again because Iliana did a really great job of helping us out.

What a great menu! We couldn't decide so we ordered the family meal with the chicken shawarma. Tasty falafel and cauliflower. All the dishes were warm and delicious. The hummus, tzatziki and sauces were the perfect compliment. Can't wait to return!

I am a huuuuge fan of BYO-anything, so when I found out the set-up was like that at SAJJ, I couldn't wait! We both went with Steak Shawarma bowls as our base and then customized it with toppings as we made it down the line. There are so many topping options to choose from, our bowls were pretty stacked by the end. Ingredients were very fresh and flavorful, service was super friendly, and I think you can say I'm a new fan who will be back soon! My only "complaint" was that the meats were a bit too salty.
* BYO: Steak Shawarma Bowls
* Sides: Pita Chips & French Fries
* Dessert: Walnut Baklava & Honey Cake
* Drinks: Mint Lemonade & Strawberry Lemonade

Wonderful way to have a quick meal that is nearly all gluten free. All of the items behind the glass have V and/or GF, so I don't have to memorize ahead of time their pdf of allergens. Loved that the toppings were not additional cost, except for two. Only thing I was not a fan of was how it seems like there could be a lot of waste in the way things are served. The bowls are compostable, but the cups and utensils -- unclear what to do with those. Having silverware and cups that are washed would be less wasteful for eat-in customers (or have better signage by the compost/trash what goes where)
Dietary restrictions: Many items are gluten free and marked as such

It's the Chipotle of Mediterranean. Not a bad thing, and pretty good for lunch in the area.

I love Sajj! So much that they catered my wedding. We were especially blown away at the last visit when I made a mistake on the app and the staff went above and beyond to help out an issue that was mine.

My 1st time here absolutely delicious. Wish they had them where I love they only have Cava and this is far superior!

Our group takeout order was ready when I arrived. Since it was a big order, someone offered to help take the food to my car. The food was good and well prepared.

Love their falafel sandwiches. I custom made it as the Arabic falafel sandwich. They offered me lentils soup which I love! I will definitely go back again
