We had a very good dinner. Two of us shared a salad, shawarma, Muhammara and the cheese cake for desert. All amazing.

Everything was so good especially the baked feta and kufta. Very friendly service, can't wait to be back ❤️

Food was incredible! Baked feta with fresh bread was fantastic. Tahini salad with chicken was light and fresh and perfect. Chicken was amazing!

Food is always really good, nice cozy atmosphere. Loved the baked feta, paella and pomegranate chicken Kabab!

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. Saffron rice? What saffron? Only turmeric as much as I could tell. Maybe this restaurant’s menu originates from a different part of the middle East than I am more accustomed to…Israel and Lebanon. I gave them a second try because it’s a neighborhood place but in New Orleans, one strike is usually an out, and two strikes are definitely an out.

Saj was a perfect dinner experience! The food arrived very quickly. Everything was delicious and just the right serving size. The atmosphere was great as well as the lowkey music that was playing. Service was exceptional and the staff was very pleasant!

I’ve never dined in, but I frequently order on delivery and Saj consistently has the best Middle Eastern food in the city. You can tell everything is made from scratch. Food is fresh, flavorful, and unique.

As a middle eastern it is the WORSE RESTAURANTS I have ever been too! Food is not all that's, service as well!

Scott Sulik

Incredible experience. Service is very friendly. The food is fresh and absolutely delicious. The special was hummus with roasted cauliflower and fried halloumi, both of which exceeded expectations. The bread is also great.

Overall highly recommended, and a great addition to the neighborhood.

Love coming to Saj when I visit NOLA! Baked Feta is to die for. Jake took care of us and did an excellent job. A must when visiting the garden district.
