    Steak Shawarma
    Diane W.

    We had lunch at Sajj in Sunnyvale for the first time. They are located in downtown Sunnyvale. My experience here was not the best compared to the location I went to, in downtown San Jose. When we walked in, there were only a few customers inside eating. There are in a large open space with plenty of tables for dining inside. We approached the counter to look at the menu. We were greeted by an employee before placing our order. I decided to go with the doner kebab wrap and my husband ordered the steak shawarma wrap. We picked our topping while our wrap was being built. All the veggie ingredients looked very fresh. The wraps also came with a cup of lentil soup. We paid and found a table to sit at. My husband's steak shawarma was very good. He really liked the flavors and the steak. He got tahini on the side and a peri peri hot sauce. He liked both. The lentil soup was good. My sandwich was not good. The doner kebab meat was very dry and hard like jerky. This meat was not freshly made. It's as if it had been sitting there way too long and was just getting reheated all day. It was hard to chew and swallow. I was so disappointed with the quality of the meat. This was the complete opposite experience I had at the location on Coleman in San Jose. Their doner kebab was soft and moist. I will most likely not come back to this location again. I went up to the counter to let an employee know, the quality of the doner kebab was not good and should not be served to customers. I just got a blank stare from the employee, like he didn't know what to do or he didn't really care. To me, that's just bad customer service and terrible that they would be okay with serving old dried up meat like that, putting customers health at risk of getting sick. We will not be returning to this location ever again.

    This is one of my go to lunch place from time to time. I like it that it is healthy and there's tables inside. Everything is nice and clean. The servers that are helping to put your food together is wonderful. You can also order ahead of time online and pickup your food in the pickup shelf section. All in all, it is a nice place to have a quick lunch.

    Chicken bowl with lentil soup.
    Laura P.

    Love how you can customize your order (similar to Chipotle). The pomegranate chicken rice bowl was great and there are a lot of options for add-ins and sauces. All plates/bowls come with lentil soup on the side. The portion sizes are decent too!

    vegan protein plate
    Grace X.

    This was really good! I had the vegan protein plate which came with rice, falafel, eggplant, chickpeas, cauliflower, pickles, a tiny bit of salad, and hummus. Everything tasted delicious, my favorite part was probably the hummus. Menu has lots of vegan options and is very clearly labeled.

    Chicken Shawarma Rice Bowl with Fries
    Alisa B.

    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!

    Steak Shawarma salad bowl with lentil soup
    Josh S.

    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.

    Got a bowl with pretty much everything in it except for olives. This is like Chipotle but Mediterranean food. It was pretty good and obviously fast. Was quite filling since I finished the entire bowl. Came with lentil soup also.

    Rice bowl w/ falafel
    Noopur D.

    Came here for dinner yesterday and really enjoyed it! Sunday evening so there was no wait, staff were nice and filled a good amount of food. I got the chicken shawarma bowl and I really liked it, love that you can pack lots of toppings and get a lot of flavor. We also got falafel bowl and the pita bread and both were good, and we also have leftovers!! The lentil soup that comes with it is also really good. The strawberry lemonade and mint lemonade were also really yummy and refreshing. Good amount of seating as well and clean space.

    Silpa D.

    The chicken shawarma was perfectly seasoned and juicy, and the falafel was super crispy and fresh--just how it should be. Great quality, fast service, and everything tasted authentic and well-prepared. Definitely coming back!

    Mushy couscous
    Mai S.

    Came back here for second time and ordered chicken shawarma again, this time with turmeric rice and i like it much better than couscous as rice was fluffy. Also customer service was better as she was being helpful. I would come gain if I want to eat quick and healthy meal !

    Is the meat and chicken halal?

    All their proteins are Halal certified according to their website.

    Do they sell the toppings in containers to order and pick up? For example, can I buy turmeric rice, garlic sauce, hummus, eggplant etc, as a example?

They have interesting dishes with paneer and chicken as well. We ordered two dishes- Leela lasun keema - This dish was intriguing, with cheese, grated egg, and a rich, spicy gravy. The portion size was generous; a single person won't be able to finish it with just three breads. It was very filling, we took back home the leftover and enjoyed it later with some rotis. They have another version of this- "kachu" with runny eggs instead of grated eggs.. well thought option! Volcano egg biryani- The dish is as interesting as its name suggests. The base is an omelette, and the rice is flavorful with bell peppers, finely chopped veggies, and aromatic spices. The center is with a tomato-based curry. The cheese on the side was amazing, and I loved it. The spicy guava drink is super refreshing with a playful mix of spice, salt, sourness, and the sweetness of guava. I really enjoyed it! They have music playing and the place is lit, creating a total vibe for spending time in the evening on a lazy weekend/ after work, or post-workout. The food is pure indulgence and covered our protein requirements with eggs, along with some fat to burn off. Kinda guilt free. Also, they have games, garba events and other many interesting things going on at different times. Superb vibes, never disappoints! Conveniently located in Sunnyvale - easy to find parking. Ask the owners for their recommendations based on your preferences. They are very nice to talk to and are super passionate about this truck, having brought something they loved from New York to the Bay Area.

Double Combo Plate - Turmeric Rice - Chicken Shawarma and Gyro Beef - The Works (Everything included) - Tzatziki sauce - Falafel (Side) - Waffle Fries (Side) Okay, the presentation of the combo plate wasn't the most aesthetically pleasing, but I looked past it. Unfortunately, the chicken and beef were lacking in flavor and were pretty dry. The portions were generous, though the gyro beef was sliced pretty thin. The veggies were actually fresh, which was a plus. The hummus was on the lighter side flavor-wise, while the Baha Ghanouj had a solid roasted aftertaste. The Achilles spread was... interesting. It was very fatty with a garlic aftertaste. It just wasn't my thang. The waffle fries were cool. They were fried well and had a good crunch, but nothing special. The falafel, though, was pretty disappointing. I'm not sure if I just got a bad batch. They were very crunchy, but had a weird dish-soap aftertaste that I couldn't get past. I couldn't finish the rest. Sorry, but I'll be on the lookout for another Mediterranean spot.
