ABOUT US

It’s simple, we want to be your family’s go-to destination for lunch and dinner.


Our story is simple, we love food and we always wanted to have our own restaurant. We were ready to fulfill our dream, then life took an unexpected turn when the COVID-19 pandemic literally knocked us off our path. Determined to face the obstacles head-on, we met many aspiring entrepreneurs along the way who were in a similar situation.

That’s when we had the light bulb moment! Why don’t we combine our resources, network and knowledge together? S.A.G.A represents each initial from the founders’ names who come from different walks of life but share a common goal: making great food!

We are venturing together to forge an epic story of our own. Let our journey begin!

A combination of experienced chefs, teamed up.

Creating a variety of specialty menus. All at one place, with easy ordering
