Sajj Mediterranean rolls out build-your-own family meals

Sajj Mediterranean, a Bay-area based fast casual concept known for its customizable eats, has launched build-your-own family meals available online, through the app, website, delivery marketplace apps or in-store at all restaurants. Starting at $59.95, and offering a variety of proteins, grains, spreads, hot sides and more to allow families and friends to easily feed a group, the meals join the menu due to positive feedback from the chain’s original family meals.

“One of the things that our guests love is the customizable options and flexibility that SAJJ ordering provides, and we wanted to expand this to a new build-your-own family meal to make ordering dinner even easier for the whole family,” Zaid Ayoub, CEO and co-founder of Sajj Mediterranean, said in a company press release. “With our guests’ ever-changing buying habits and the evolution of the dining experience, we wanted to enhance our family meal options and make it easy and convenient for guests to enjoy all of the fresh ingredients and flavors offered at SAJJ.”

• Choose 1 Protein Option: Falafel, Chicken Shawarma, Steak Shawarma (+$4.95) and Pomegranate Chicken.
