What they’re saying
“Everything is made fresh,” shared Emad Saad. He’s the owner of the restaurant there in Clearwater. “We make it from scratch, everything from the bread, from the wraps, everything that we do. We think about ourselves eating it first.”
The pita pockets and wraps are baked daily with fresh ingredients right there in the kitchen.
It’s all created with the intention of being fresh and natural.
“No additives, no chemicals,” said Saad of their creations, “As much as possible we’re keeping it clean and very healthy.”
Customers can choose from a regular bowl, a lite bowl, a pita pocket or a Saj wrap. Once they have selected what they are building, Saad described multiple choices for customers to select from.
“You choose your base rice, brown rice, quinoa, greens, and then you have the vegetables, the sauces. We’re known for our garlic sauce. It’s delicious. And then after that you pick the protein,” he said.
Customers can select from chicken Shawarma, beef Shawarma or Kafta. They also offer shitakii and falafel options for vegetarians.
