" Visiting Saj was an incredible experience! The decoration is tastefully done with a modern twist on traditional Middle Eastern vibes. I ordered the Mediterranean mezze platter, which was plentiful and satisfying. Each dip was rich and flavorful, and I loved the warm Saj bread that came with it. The service was attentive, but the wait was a bit longer than expected for the main course. Overall, a fantastic spot for authentic flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here is so nostalgic for me, as a Middle Eastern foodie. I recognize the authenticity in every bite! The mixed grill platter reminded me of home. The atmosphere was lively and perfect for a night out with friends. The service wasn't too quick, but the quality of the food made the wait worthwhile. I can’t recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Saj is an excellent choice for Middle Eastern cuisine in New Orleans! Their hummus was thick and creamy, exactly how I like it, and the lamb was seasoned well. The only downside was that I felt the portions were slightly smaller compared to what I’m used to. The atmosphere is casual but classy, making it an ideal spot for dinner with friends or family. " (*Curated Review*)

" One of the highlights of my recent trip to New Orleans! Saj left quite the impression with its delicious dishes. The mezze platter was fantastic, providing a wonderful variety of tastes. While the service was friendly, I found it a little slow, but I didn’t mind much as I was enjoying the atmosphere. I can't wait to come back and bring some friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" The best Middle Eastern restaurant I have ever visited! From the moment I stepped in, I was transported to a cozy and welcoming environment that felt like home. We ordered a variety of dishes and shared them all. The falafel was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside – simply the best! The service was prompt, and our waiter was knowledgeable enough to guide us through the menu. I will definitely bring my friends here next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Saj, and it was an unforgettable experience! The ambiance is warm and inviting, perfect for a cozy meal. The Saj bread was a highlight for me, and the lamb chop was cooked to perfection with a delicious char. The service was attentive without being intrusive. We ordered several small plates, and every dish had its own unique flavor. I can't wait to return and try more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, Saj was a beautiful restaurant. The decor was vibrant yet elegant. I really appreciated the variety they had on the menu. I tried the falafel and was astonished at how much flavor it packed! Staff were friendly, but the service could be refined a bit as we had to wait for a while to place our orders. Still, I will absolutely be back! " (*Curated Review*)
