    Curry Chicken Salad
    Jose R.

    Pita Jungle is a great place to eat some delicious Mediterranean food or just good healthy food in general. I typically visit here for lunch and my favorite thing to get is the curry chicken salad. The chicken salad mix is so tasty and the combination of the tumeric brown rice, chicken salad with grapes, and thin fried onions is amazing. I also super enjoyed their paradise green tea. We did start off with the cilantro jalapeño hummus, which is our fav, and other people ordered the shawarma chicken bowl and gyro wrap. The place was not super busy when we arrived and we attended promptly. Throughout our meal our waitress was nice, attentive, and most importantly kept those paradise green tea refills flowing.

    Manager Valerie is absolutely amazing, She was very responsive and runs the restaurant Perfectly during her shift. Food here is great!

    Garlic Mushrooms. AMAZING!
    Donna B.

    I had the blackened salmon and the garlic mushrooms. The garlic mushrooms were the best I've ever eaten! Whoever made them was amazing. I want to be able to make them like that myself. Great customer service and my to go order was ready and exactly 20 minutes. That's how long they said the salmon would take and they were exact.

    This is my favorite PJ location. They have a good-sized dining area and also a huge outdoor patio. The service is always great, and the food tastes amazing. My only complaint is that the portion sizes aren't consistent from location to location. I ordered a bowl of the Lemon Chicken Rice Soup, which has marinated chicken, turmeric brown rice, celery, carrots, onions, fresh lemon juice, garnished with fresh arugula, and there was hardly any chicken and rice. It was mostly broth. At several other locations, I have ordered the same thing, and you get a good amount of the chicken and rice. We even ordered takeout on New Year's Eve, and I ordered two "bowls," not cups, of the lemon chicken and rice soup, and when my husband brought the order home, it just was like I ordered two smaller cups. Each cup had hardly any of the chicken and rice. Totally disappointing because I absolutely love the soup and want to eat it every day!

    Came in after driving for a few hours, so I got a table and went to the restroom. The urinal was out of order and the stall was very dirty. Luckily, the restaurant was otherwise clean. The waitress was friendly, I ordered the gyro, caramelized cauliflower, and the inflation buster chicken taco. The food took a long time to come out, the cauliflower took 10 minutes and the chicken taco took 25 minutes, with the gyro taking 20 minutes. The food was good, but nothing remarkable.

    Pita wrap in bowl was mostly rice!!

    Horrible experience. I've eaten at this and two other locations previously We choose to sit out side this evening and the server was terrible I never got her name. The manager who tried to excuse her way out of the more than 1 hour 15 minute wait for our food was pathetic. I usually love Pita Jungle and wanted my family to have a nice dinner out but the service ruined our outing. Complete Fail. Even discounting the bill didn't make me feel better. I hope the management takes notice of this and either gets a new manager or hires competent staff

    Grilled chicken wrap
    Vernee D.

    My husband and I used to frequent Pita Jungle when we were younger and dating, but it's been quite some time since we've gone. We were in the area for the Phoenix Art Mueseum and decided to come by to refresh and have a late lunch. We took our seats by the main entrance, Roosevelt, and the vibe was very industrial urban (think NYC June 2009). We got a high chair for our son and ordered their guava lemonades to help us cool down. I love everything Pita Jungle, but I usually lean toward their wraps, and today's was the grilled chicken wrap. The pita is SO fluffy and amazing to bite into. My baby liked the chicken and cucumbers from my wrap and side salad. My husband's go-to order is the chicken del sol. It is savory, citrus, and hearty. If it weren't already 100 degrees outside, this would be my order, too. The plate is circled with pita and cheese that's been toasted and ready to be dipped. This was a wonderful lunch and they sent us home with a guava lemonade for our travel back to Mesa!

    Chipotle Chicken Lavash Pizza, Garlic Mushrooms, Mozzarella Tomato & Basil, olives, Grilled Chicken with Pine Nuts, Falafel

    Pita Jungle is great! I haven't been in years so I'm glad a friend suggested it for our meetup. Their happy hour is one of the best out there and I'm happy to be reminded of it. Love this location in downtown Phoenix- it's quite spacious inside and we both found parking across the street (parallel). I'm sure it gets busier into the evening so we went at a good time. It wasn't too busy which I prefer and our server was wonderful. We ordered a bunch of tapas and enjoyed every one of them: falafel, chipotle chicken pizza, Mediterranean olives, Garlic Lemon Chicken & Pita Nuts, Fresh Mozzarella & Tomato, and sautéed mushrooms. My personal favorites were the mushrooms, olives, and pizza. We were made to feel welcome after we finished our meal and enjoyed our conversation. I'd recommend this spot!

    Guava lemonade

    Walked into this location intending to purchase their Guava Lemonade (that I love), and was warmly greeted by whom I assume was a manager. I placed my order to go and pulled a $10 out of my pocket, when to my surprise and unexpected delight was told "no charge, enjoy". I've been to this location before and the service has always been great. Today was extra special.

    Lamb burger
    Morgan S.

    I went here with my family for Christmas and it was great! Street parking so make sure you read the signs. We ordered the garlic dip to share and it was so tasteful! Very potent, it came with some pita :) Great flavor! Will order again :) I got the lamb burger! I've had lamb before but not as a burger. It was very dense! Flavorful and tasteful but dense for sure. That I was not excepting but happy I tried it. I would definitely try it again. The restaurant itself was calm and relaxing. Family friendly and relaxed. I think I would go back if I'm ever in town again.

    Great happy hour menu! I tried the chipotle pizza, highly recommend. The staff was very welcoming. Will definitely be coming back!

    Is there parking?

    Yes

    I recently ordered The chicken Shawarma gluten free, Does this come with gluten-free pita or is it supposed to be in a lettuce wrap?

    You can order it either way :)

The Desmond was exactly what I was looking for. As soon as I walked in, it felt like the the kind of restaurant I would a regular at back home; a charming and homey decor, a vast selection of bourbons and other liquors, and friendly attentive service. The place was filled with regulars who didn't mind sharing the place with visitors. The Desmond was honest and unpretentious.

We each ordered a pizza but they took almost 45 minutes to arrive, my friend had a simple pepperoni while I had the truffle. The pizzas were ok but at $21 each they weren't worth the wait. When the bill was brought to our table I asked for it to be split by person since my friend an I were paying separately but the staff member split the bill in half so I ended up having to partially pay for my friend's drinks (they ordered something while we were waiting for the pizzas). It's not a big deal but the staff member was like "ok sure" and promptly ignored my request. There was also a 3% credit card surcharge so that was kind of annoying. I left a small tip but that was being generous. I wanted to go to the pub mextdoor but my friend convinced me that we should go here instead. I won't be making a return visit.

I waited about 12 minutes to be seated, even though no one was ahead of me, while two people who arrived after me were seated first. Once at my table, my server walked past me three times without acknowledgment; it took nearly 8 minutes to get water. When my food came out, I noticed my white toast had been swapped for some odd-looking wheat bread with no explanation. I only found out they didn't carry white toast by asking. No manager stopped by, and communication from the front-of-house staff was nearly nonexistent from start to finish. The one bright spot was that the food itself was genuinely good. Visit 2 (Next Day): A completely different experience. The restaurant was actually busier, yet the hostess was immediately attentive and got me seated without delay. My server, Josh, came right over, was personable, and proactively let me know they don't carry white toast, offering sourdough as an alternative without me having to ask. I also had the chance to chat with Erin, the banquet manager, who brought a warm and welcoming energy to the floor. That kind of manager presence was completely absent on day one and made a noticeable difference. Bottom line: The kitchen is solid, both visits confirmed that. But the guest experience here can vary wildly depending on who's working. When the team is on, this place shines. Here's hoping Visit 2 is the new standard.
