Sajj Mediterranean (San Mateo) Menu

If you’re browsing the Sajj Mediterranean (San Mateo) Menu, get ready for bold flavors and fresh ingredients that actually taste like they were prepped that morning. Right in the heart of San Mateo at 251 E 3rd Ave, this spot keeps things simple but satisfying. The build-your-own plates are a solid place to start - fluffy pita, fragrant rice, crisp greens, and your pick of shawarma, falafel, or tender grilled chicken layered with creamy hummus and garlicky sauces.

What makes the menu fun is how customizable everything feels. You can load up on toppings, mix sauces, or keep it light with a vibrant salad bowl packed with cucumbers, tomatoes, and olives. The wraps are warm and generously filled, while the sides - think crispy fries or smooth baba ghanoush - make it hard not to add “just one more thing.” It’s the kind of menu that works whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or settling in for a relaxed, flavor-packed dinner.
