Halal Mediterranean food in Palos Hills, IL. Shawarma, falafel, and fresh saj bread made from traditional Palestinian recipes. Dine in, takeout, or delivery.
Baba Saj is a family-owned Mediterranean restaurant and bakery on Harlem Avenue in Palos Hills, serving the southwest suburbs every hour of every day. Our dishes are rooted in traditional Palestinian recipes, and we’re home to Chicago’s #1 best-selling original shawarma sandwich.
Everything is made fresh daily — slow-marinated chicken and beef shawarma, hand-rolled falafel, warm saj bread and flatbreads straight from the bakery, hummus, baba ghanouj, muhammara, labneh, za’atar manakish, sfeha, kebabs, salads, and desserts including knafeh, tiramisu, and cheesecake. Our full menu is 100% halal, with plenty of vegetarian and vegan options plus a kids’ menu.
Because we’re open 24 hours, we’re here for early breakfast, a full lunch, family dinner, or a 2 AM shawarma run. The space is casual and easygoing with outdoor seating, room for large groups, and easy parking. Reservations are welcome, and dogs are allowed on the patio.
Prefer to stay in? Order takeout or get delivery through DoorDash, Uber Eats, or Grubhub. Feeding a crowd? Our catering team brings fresh Mediterranean food to parties, community events, and celebrations across the Palos area.
