The hummous was very bland, the falafel-meh,
Kufka was the least tasty of my selections. The accompanying sauces were very different from I expected.

Saj is a charming restaurant with a clean and cozy atmosphere, perfect for enjoying a great meal. The food is exceptional, with standout dishes including falafel, hummus, chicken shwarma, stuffed grape leaves, paella, chicken skewers, grilled olives, and smoky hummus. Recent guests have praised the new menu selection, especially the Shish kebab made with filet mignon, which is incredibly tender and flavorful. The Mediterranean salad and house-made strawberry soda are also fresh and delicious. The restaurant is located in the former site of Mona's, but offers a more elegant setting.
The focus is clearly on the food, which features unique flavors and generous portions. Diners often enjoy the saj bread, light and dusted with za'atar and a touch of olive oil. Many guests find the service to be helpful and attentive, with the chef/owner, Mo, sharing his passion for the menu with diners. Overall, Saj remains a popular choice for those seeking delicious Mediterranean and Middle Eastern dishes in a warm and welcoming environment.
