The food was delectable, the seating was manageable, the price was reasonable. First of all, I loved the different customizable combinations of food you can do. It is very easy to make sure the food is tailored to your taste. Secondly, the food is quick, tasty, and healthy. There are lots of vegetables, protein, and healthy fats offered. Thirdly, the food is really good for the price, you’re either leaving with a box or a full stomach. Since it’s inside a mall, seating should not be judged. The only 2 complaints were the complexity of the menu, it took a while to understand how to order– the employees were super helpful with that. — and the plastic utensils that look like they came straight out of a plane. Overall, a great option for someone looking for a nutritious tasty meal.

My food would probably have been better if it wasn’t ice cold, but I put the blame on Doordash. However, I paid for 2 extra sauces and they were less than half full. The pickles were almost all cauliflower stalks.

I have been coming to semsem @ Chicago ridge since they’ve opened. Service is always great. Staff are always generous and honest. Today I tried the zinger combo, which is a new item and babbby it is delicious!!! I would definitely buy again, I had fries topped with cheese and jalapeños the best! I recommend this restaurant to anyone, they even have vegan options which is great!

I thought it was delicious. A little more unique than normal Mediterranean in my opinions.

Yep … I had already started eating before I remembered to take a picture of this delicious food. There’s something to be said about the health benefits of Mediterranean food. I’m eating at Sem Sem and enjoying this Chicken Bowl with grilled chicken, yellow rice, lettuce, tomato, cucumbers, tabouli and white sauce.

Little Mediterranean fast food in the corner of the mall. It is nice if your looking for something with veggies but also fries and mayonnaise. Servers are cute and nice, they explained stuff with patience. And gave me veggies in cute little containers. Highly recommend passing all the common fast foods to get to this one.
