Sajj Mediterranean: Reviews & Ratings
I used to get Saj in downtown SF during lunch so overall I'm a fan of this fast casual eatery. I decided to pick up falafels again recently at this location and found that the serving size and taste is superb. The tahini and spicy tahini pairs perfectly well. I wish they had a chain store on the east bay side!
Stopped by Sajj for a quick bite to eat after volunteering at Second Harvest food bank on a Saturday morning. It was pretty empty and the staff was super helpful and friendly. Think chipotle but Mediterranean. I really liked how everything tasted so fresh and we found out later that everything was locally sourced which is a nice bonus! I got a bowl with greens, couscous, falafel, chicken and all the sides!! We also got a complimentary soup! Very happy with our experience!
Attentive and dedicated service Nice eating area with clean restrooms Food is delicious, consistent over time, and with selection of options to build your meal. recommended!!!
Pros: Good food, tasty, flavorful Cons: Overpriced ... even 1 bowl rounds up to $20+ which doesnt make sense for fast food
4.8 stars! This spot is always on point. Fresh, healthy, and amazing flavors. My favorite lunch spot!
It was not busy on the day we went so it made ordering a little less stressful. Love the options and all delicious . Serving generous. Do try the mint lemonade ... forgot to take photos
5 stars all around! I can't speak for the ambiance because I got it to go but ... Walked in and the smells were amazing! The young lady helping was super kind and let me taste the couscous before getting it! Wow... so good! Never had it at all and it was the base of my bowl! Chicken shawarma and I LOVED the beets and tomato/cucumber! Everything was so fresh and perfect before I went to a concert. Definitely will be back!
I've been visiting more Mediterranean restaurants lately since this type of cuisine tends to be healthier than most. I like that you can choose your protein followed by a healthier base such as salad. They give you a choice of toppings and sauce. You can add on sides for an additional cost. The service staff are very nice and the restaurant is clean. Also a good amount of tables outside with shade if you want to enjoy the fresh air.
Saw this spot on tik tok and wanted to try! They have a sort of build your own bowl and have decent amount of options for protein, veggies, and sauces. I felt it was similar to Cava (which we don't have in the Bay Area rn) but a bit more homey. The falafels were flavorful and fresh, fast service, and decent seating areas. I would totally come here again and try the other options.
Fast food Mediterranean with wonderful customer service. Shawarma chicken, with all the fixen ... WONDERFUL. Sauces were yummy and chicken very tasty... Winner The lady and guy working front, both superstars... Thank you, Sharine
