I had heard great comments about La Saj Lebanese Bistro but had never tried it. Am I sorry it took me this long--this place rocks!. The food is fresh, tastes great, and the service and value are excellent. The pita bread is the best I have EVER had--baked fresh right before it is served with the creamiest garlic sauce ever. I had their Lamb Shank specialty that is slow cooked for 5 hours. It absolutely fell off the bone and tasted wonderful. My husband had the traditional Chicken Shawarma. I had a taste and it was the best I have ever had--moist, not dry like other restaurants. Our server was Alicia--she's the best, but I noticed all of the staff was very good. I can't wait to go back soon.

The worst food and service you can ever get.I went there with my family to celebrate my daughters birthday and I was very disappointed I had the lamb chops and for the $21 dollar dish they were dry and flavorless, my husband had the kibbeh nayeh and he didn't care much for it and we he asked the server that what do they usually mixed on it because the taste wasn't right his answer was we have the best kibbeh that's nothing wrong with it, the salad didn't seem to fresh only good thing was the bread and the garlic,even if we informed the server that we were not happy with our meals none bothered to approach the table and check on us, it seemed that our server was more like a clown the a server.Will never go back again.

I went to LA Saj when they first open and we were not pleased at all with the food and the service but we thought they are still new and just give them another chance so we really did we went back again after 8 months but nothing had changed food and service was terrible I had my son with me and he was 22 years old but when we ordered wine he was not asked for ID the server was very rude and unprofessional the owner Ali (aka) Alex was trying to make sure that his dining room was running smooth but in the opposite it seemed he had no clue how to run a business if me as a customer being there for almost1 hour and a half and never had a restaurant business saw to many flaws. I will never go back again.

Mixed feelings after dining at La Saj last Friday evening. The food is fantastic: easily the best Middle Eastern cuisine we've ever had. And the owners seemed genuinely interested in our experience. But the atmosphere and service left a lot to be desired. The booths in the main dining room are quite awkward: we just couldn't get comfortable, and our discomfort increased as the room grew full and became hot, noisy, and even claustrophobic. The busboy was very attentive, refilling water and checking to see if we liked our meals (eyeing our full plates with concern: there was just too much to eat). But our waitress was simply SURLY. Having worked in service industries ourselves, we are very sympathetic to the difficulties of waitressing, but really, she was terrible. Rude eyerolls and shrugs when we asked questions about the menu; slamming things down in front of us; not checking back at all with us (thank goodness for the wonderful busboy); an angry "I'm busy!" when we asked, very politely, for the check, after waiting 20 minutes for her; another 10 minutes and then we had to ask for take home containers, then she didn't bring enough (but fortunately the hostess/owner? spotted us struggling to get our leftovers into the tiny boxes and brought us some more; and when we handed her the tip she just snapped "thanks" at us over her shoulder and walked away.
If we go back, we'll wait for a normal booth in the front of the restaurant, go at an odd time, or most likely, just order carry-out from now on...

This is an absolutely fabulous restaurant in every respect! I've never been disappointed and my guests were thrilled with the cuisine. Too bad you can't give it a six star rating! Terrific in every way!

La Saj owners personally greet you when you visit their restaurant. The food is fabulous – warm pita rounds, authentic Lebanese dishes, generous servings. The hummus is the best in the city. If you are in a hurry, they serve you promptly and get you on your way. I have eaten lunch here numerous times and it is my favorite.

Delicious food, wonderful environment, excellent service. Will definitely be returning and recommending to friends and family. Willing to work with food allergies and discuss food ingredients.
