I had only eaten this place as catering at an old workplace some time ago and had not tried this place myself in a while. With some friends, we stopped by for dinner and my goodness, they are so generous with the portions here! I essentially picked out all the items I could stuff my bowl with and got steak for my protein. They even give lentil soup in addition to the food. This place is a huge deal during these times and they are speedy~

This place is best described as being like Chipotle for mediterranean food. You walk down assembly line and decide which sides / proteins you want in your order. I opted for the steak shawarma in a salad bowl and my wife ordered a similar salad bowl but opted for chicken. I wasn't the biggest fan of the seasoning on the shawarma, and preferred the chicken when I took a bite of the other bowl. But it's still super great. The portions are super big and I'm sure many people could turn a single bowl into 2 meals. They also add a small lentil soup on the side which is really nice. Overall, can't complain with the price / value of this place. Great spot for some filling mediterranean.

Chipotle of Mediterranean food but lots of different sauces, hummus, veggies, etc that will blow your mind away. The bowl can easily feed 2-3 people to be honest. On top of it, you also get a lentil soup.

Good lentil soup and fries :D I had a really great experience here! Big portions, solid quality ingredients, and it's convenient. I recommend the Chicken Shawarma Rice Bowl! Well seasoned and tender chicken. Definitely try the eggplant and cauliflower too. Sooooo good, especially with the Tzatziki, Hummus, and Garlic Spread! Staff here aren't the nicest... but I'll overlook it since they gave such genereous scoops of food. Thanks SAJJ!

Healthy, fresh food. Easy to customize and build your own bowl. Came here on a Tuesday evening and there was ample seating. Staff were friendly and I was able to get my food quickly.

A chain where you can order things similar to how you would in Chipotle. This location was quite empty, so we were able to quickly order our food. Everything about the food was really fresh, delicious, and satisfying. Honestly nothing to complain about. They even give you lentil soup! It's such an easy and healthy meal that I can see myself coming back quite often.

Move over, Chipotle! From now on, Sajj will be our go to for fast eat out. Very easy to maintain our macro. It's about $18 per bowl but the amount of protein in the hummus, meat and etc. are double than the Chipotle.

I'd been feeling under the weather for a few days, and lentil soup is my go-to comfort food. Without the time to cook, I randomly stumbled upon this place--and I'm so glad I did! The lentil soup was surprisingly well-made, with a nice flavor. While I typically prefer thicker soup, this still hit the spot. The fresh pitas were a great touch, though I was a little disappointed they didn't offer lemon slices (I asked, but they don't carry them). Overall, I'm happy to have found a new spot for my lentil soup fix!

Nice casual setting. We ordered to go but ended up eating right there. Parking is across the street in the parking lot... can be tricky to find parking at times as it's mostly full. Ordered the pomegranate chicken bowl. It similar to the chipotle concept where you can opt for as many or as little things. I opted in for every single item there (except multiple meats, of course) It comes on a bed of turmeric rice and mixed greens. Got both egg plant and sumac cauliflower as the hot toppings ( these were the highlights- buth are exceptionally yummy). Then the tzatziki, hummus and garlic spread. Then tomato/cucumber mix, garbanzo beans, diced beets, sumac onions, pickles and cabbage, cherry peppers. Added the mint sauce and spicy tahini sauce. When you order in store, it comes with a bowl of lentil soup. The bowl easily lasts for 2 meals for me. And all this for $16 including taxes!
