    Super charming lunch spot
    Gabi M.

    I've taken note of this place a few times before when I've spent time at the nearby Center Court Glendale, but unfortunately, Al's is closed on Sundays so I didn't get to try it... until recently. I happened to be in the area on a Friday this time and walked over for lunch... I had a Greek Chicken Salad with fresh pita that day. It was so good that I went back the next day, on a Saturday. The next day I went for a Gyro Salad and also got my husband a Gyro Pita. Two visits two days in a row! Service was fast and friendly, pricing was very fair, and the food was great too. I highly recommend the garlic sauce. This is a small charming hidden gem. If you are in the area, you must check it out. I'll be back!

    The food is sooooo good!! The food cane out very fast. The inside is very pretty with lots of nice paintings on all the walls. The owner is super nice. There is also an amazing garlic sauce that goes great with the fries. I would absolutely come here again!!

    Falafel salad
    O'Zandra F.

    Great find! I ordered the falafel salad. The falafel was the crunchiest that I ever had. I paired it with the raspberry tea... well, I had two cups. Delicious! Accessible parking and entrance.

    I go here about once a month. Love this place. Everything is good. Even asked to make something not on the menu for me and they did and it was perfect The Philly cheesesteak pita is the best

    Falafel and cilantro jalapeno hummus

    This place is located on the West side of 59th Ave just North of Bell Rd. There are other photos of the inside and menus with prices. It is fairly small, about 3 booths and some other tables. The day we went they were a little short staffed. They had the one guy taking orders and doing the cooking. Not sure if that is the way it normally is but it did slow things down. If you are taking out, you should probably order ahead before you get there. The food was really good. The gyro and the falafel (see photos) were excellent. I also tried the Philly chicken (see photo) but that was a little bland. I should have gone with the Shawarma. The gyro was definitely worth it. The cilantro jalapeño hummus was a good variation. Babaghanouj was a good serving size.

    Got takeout but definitely will be back to dine in - they have a bunch of old photos and Chicago decor on the walls and it smelt AMAZING inside. Love the vibes! The portion of the combo plates is definitely enough for two full meals which I love! Their gyro meat is so flavorful! I wish hummus came with the plate but the small side was around $3 so not bad. The hummus was relatively bland but I think you can order different flavors and we just got the traditional so I will definitely try the other flavor next time! Loved all the other sauces that were included & the rice was delicious! The two people that were working there were very pleasant when we ordered and picked up our food as well.

    This is menu item #1. For starters, the place is really clean and well kept. The customer service is phenomenal. I've had Gyros all over Glendale, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert and central Phoenix area; this is by far the best tasting place. You really do get more than you pay for. Most places are either really expensive $14-17 a gyro combo and don't give you a lot of meat. Al's is very generous with their meat portions and for only $11 you get the full combo. The toppings/dressing are on the bottom. The French fries are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Seriously you need to try it here.

    Mediterranean & Chicago food. $5 - $15 Family owned

    Clean, dated interior, tables worn. SALAD WITH CHICKEN had great flavor. the dressing was perfect, too many fried "pita croutons" for me. HUMMUS WITH GRILLED VEGGIES was disappointing. The vegetables were previously frozen and tasted like it. Fresh green pepper and onion, but they overcooked because the frozen stuff had to cook longer and were much larger pieces. The HUMMUS was so smooth and was well presented on the plate. Needed, lemon, garlic, and salt. The SERVICE they took and served my order. I did not see them other then that?? I won't be back. Grilled chicken was very tasty. I feel like fresh grilled vegetables would've turned the whole thing around.

    Tried their pita with ubereats. The fries are amazing! No salty no oily but very crunchy. The pita bread is amazing too, it is obvious that it is very fresh. Only thing that could improve is that the steak was a bit chewy. For a delivery order it was an excellent order!

Unfortunately, that's where the positives ended. We ordered and were asked if we were dining in or taking our food to go. We said dining in, but there were no open tables inside (around 12 total) and zero tables available outside. We ended up waiting in the back for a table to open while staff repeatedly walked around looking for our table number, never once asking if the order might be ours. After several minutes, someone finally asked if we were number 11. We were. Once seated, the decor was cute, but service was mediocre at best. The food was the biggest disappointment. It had been a while since we last visited, and it's definitely not the same. The rice was bland and flavorless, and the gyro meat tasted like frozen, reheated product -- very dry, with the main flavor being salt. Instead of the fresh-carved gyro meat you typically see on a vertical rotisserie at most Greek restaurants, the kitchen area was closed off, so there was no visible preparation or carving station. For nearly $50, the experience simply did not match the price. Between the disorganized service and underwhelming food, we won't be back. Next time, we'll stick to supporting East Valley Greek spots that offer better quality and value. I want to preface, this place used to be good. Not sure of ownership changed, but save yourself a trip and find something better and more affordable

Napkins and salt & pepper grinders at the tables. I downloaded the Pita Kitchen app while at the table, using the QR affixed to the top outer edge. Our server explained we could get 25% off our first order if we did. This app looks very user friendly and has lots of rewards and perks for the three Pita Kitchen locations in the greater Phoenix area.

The gentleman working noticed us studying the menu and was extremely helpful, even offering a few sample bites before we decided. We ended up getting a chicken wrap, a falafel wrap, hummus and baklava. Hands down, the falafel was my favorite. I asked for the orange hot sauce on the side and it was fantastic. Definitely spicy though so be careful if that isn't your thing. The falafel was flavorful and moist. The wrap came with lettuce, tomato, pickle, cucumber and sauce inside a tortilla, then grilled. Absolutely perfect. Fresh and delicious. My partner's chicken was also great. Fewer vegetables than on the falafel wrap. The chicken meat was super juicy and perfectly seasoned. Both meals came with a soup that was a nice addition. But people... hear me out.... The baklava. SO. FREAKING GOOD. Perfectly flaky and the right amount of sweetness. We added it on as an impulse buy while we paid and it ended up being the star of the show. I sincerely can't wait to go back. Thank you for a great meal!
