    Wood-Fired Veggie Lavash Wrap
    Lisa G.

    I like the food options at Pita Jungle but I'm tired of paying more for my food to receive poor quality and quantity! My friends and I ordered lunch and all agreed this location is ridiculous! My friend ordered a chicken salad and received it in a to-go container that was half the size as it was previously! I ordered the veggie wrap and it was more wrap than veggie! All we want is what we paid for....nothing more! We are so furious about what we received, we are committed to not giving this location any more of our money until they can show they value us as customers and stop ripping us off....like we won't notice our portions when we took them out of the packages!

    Shrooms, Pizza & Chicken!

    Yay - got out of a Drs appt that went really long & hadn't had lunch. I popped into Pita Jungle & was fortunate to catch the Happy Hour menu from 3-6pm. Happy Hour = Tapas!!! For under $20, I feasted on * chicken w/ pine nut * falafel patties * sautéed mushrooms * spinach pesto pizza All tasted super delicious & took some leftover pizza home. Keep up the good & healthy food, PJ!

    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.

    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!

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

    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.

    Grilled chicken wrap

    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
    Haneen O.

    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!

    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

    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.

As all 4 of us weren't super hungry, we split the Persian Room Special- Combination of barg (Filet mignon), chicken filet and Koobideh kebab, served with basmati rice and grilled tomato. It was a huge portion of food, served on a large silver platter. The menu states that it serves 2, but it perfectly filled us 4 adults! Granted, we weren't super hungry to begin with, but 2 is definitely an underestimate. I'd say it can easily satisfy 3 hungry adults. Anyway, quantity aside, THE FOOD WAS AMAZING!

    Some restaurants chase trends. Others just quietly keep making really good food year after year…read more This is one of those places. I'd been here several times years ago, and after coming back, I'm honestly wondering why I don't eat here more often. I ordered the chicken shawarma, a stuffed grape leaves platter, and hot tea. Everything was exactly what I hoped it would be. The chicken was well-seasoned, tender, and wrapped with the classic toppings, and the portion was fair for the price. Speaking of price, the value here is honestly hard to beat. The stuffed grape leaves platter came with hummus, tabbouleh, pita, and hot stuffed grape leaves. I had completely forgotten they serve them warm, and my brain needed a minute to recalibrate because I'm so used to cold dolmas everywhere else. Once I took a bite, though... yep. That's how they're supposed to taste. Soft, flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious. I ended up adding some of the hummus and tabbouleh to my shawarma, which made an already great sandwich even better. The service was just as impressive as the food. My server was genuinely kind, gave me a few extra minutes when I couldn't decide, checked in without hovering, and even offered to package my hot tea to go when he noticed I was still working on it. (For the record, ordering an entire pot of tea for one person was an ambitious life choice on my part.) The dining room isn't huge, and there's also a small market attached, which adds to the charm. This place reminds me that consistency is underrated. Years later, I came back, and it was just as good as I remembered. Great food, great service, great value. I'll try not to wait so long before my next visit.
