    Gyro bowl
    Lea C.

    Today was a solid 3 visit (unfortunately). It was parents weekend at ASU and our daughter invited us over for lunch. We decided on Pita as we normally can find something fairly healthy here. I wanted something other than chicken breast today so ordered the Ahi tuna dish- but was told they were out of the ahi for that dish. Bummer. So asked for the taco on the menu that was described as 'dark meat chicken in an asada sauce) and a cup of lentil soup. The soup was good; the taco was something else- chicken breast that was beyond dry in a taco. We were all hungry so I just threw some lentil soup and some of my daughters hummus on there to make it edible vs waiting for a correction. Somehow my picture of the taco is lost in space, but it was definitely chicken breast, not the dark meat I ordered. Daughter ordered the hummus with tuna- her tuna was marinated in something a bit bitter (and appeared then to be fried) and she said it was also extremely dry. The hummus was tasty tho Husband has a gyro bowl and was happy with it (yay!) My daughter ordered a Botanical Martini and she liked it as well- I didn't care for the cucumber taste. Our server was very busy, but made sure we had what we needed (Karie I believe was her name). I will say that our food runner brought our plates and we let her know we had no silverware- so she went and stood bored at the bar. We had to ask our server and she brought silverware right away. Bizarre I've been a fan of pita in the past, so assuming it was just an off day.

    My long-time dining experience with Pita Jungle goes all the way back to my ASU college days in the 90's. I used to grab lunch at the original location on Apache Boulevard after class all the time. It was a big hit with the students back then and still is today. Pita Jungle opened its first Valley location almost 30 years ago in 1994 not too far from this Tempe location. Three ASU students spearheaded this place and today they have a location in the heart of Sun Devil nation on popular Mill Ave. Pita Jungle has locations all over Arizona. I have visited this location on a few occasions and enjoy the art work on the walls whenever I'm dining in. Pita Jungle serves healthy Mediterranean food. The menu consists of healthy sandwiches, bowls and wood-fired pizzas. They accommodate all lifestyles including vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free. I'm always down for a Gyro or Chicken Shawarma with some hummus. I also love the Wood-Fired Pizzas, the Chicken Combo Platter and Tikka Masala. Definitely grab some tea with your meal. They are always refreshing and flavorful.

    Pita Jungle is my go to in PHX, they have an excellent menu if you love traditional Greek food. This particular location in Mill Ave is always busy, and with all the food options around they have to earn that food traffic. Parking varies on the street, just check the street signs that day. The dining room is very large with ample seating spaces, and a cool bar to sit and have a quick lunch. The art and decor is vibrant and fitting for the area. Food wise I always get the Philly steak pita, I literally haven't tried anything else in over 5 years. It's that good! The steak is flavorful, the peppers and onions, wrapped in that warm soft pita make it a must have if this is your first time. If you don't like red meat, then a chicken pita is a good plan b. Pro Tip: Sign up for the rewards program, and instead of annoying e mails all day you will actually get some free desserts or BOGO's.

    I had a great visit here for lunch a couple of weeks ago. Pita Jungle has a wide selection on its menu: wraps, bowls, salads, burgers, wood-fired pizzas, and several chicken entrees. This location is very large with ample seating. I was seated immediately and service was attentive throughout my visit. I opted for the Philly Steak Pita. This was served piping hot and was very flavorful: premium shaved beef cuts, roasted bell peppers and onions, roasted mushrooms, and mozzarella on a Greek pita. Pita Jungle has several locations around Arizona and, after this first experience, I would not hesitate to dine at another one again.

    Shawarma Chicken and Chicken & Hummus Tacos
    Natasha M.

    The food is fantastic! I stopped in solo and hadn't actually planned on eating but the cool vibes and Inflation Buster menu caught my eye. I picked out a cup of Lemon Basil Chicken Soup and 2 chicken tacos. The soup was very warm and hearty, and the tacos were overflowing with flavor. I liked the hummus & chicken better though. The service was slightly rocky, but ok considering it was a busy Saturday afternoon. Overall, good experience. My vegan friend raved about it too.

    This is our favorite before seeing a show spot- Allie was great and made wonderful suggestions. I really appreciate the level of teamwork here. We'll be back!

    Chicken street stir- fry
    Ariel J.

    The visit didn't start off great, in all honesty. But to be fair, I think there was a miscommunication. I had just given blood and spent a few hours studying, so I figured I better get something healthy yet hardy for lunch, I walked in what I assume was the back end. A guy looked at me, and I said, "Hi, it's just me." To which he pointed and said, "Over there." Which I thought meant to grab one of the many open tables, but I guess what he meant was to go to the hostess booth, which I didn't know was there, so I sat down, and waited, and waited, and waited. Finally, the waitress asked if I had been helped. I told her that I had not, and she apologized and got me a menu. I quickly ordered my drink and food. I was so happy that my guava lemonade wasn't too sugary but had enough substance to be refreshing. It was needed after the weird feeling of lacking blood. Haha. If you want a great spice kick with a cooling combination. I highly recommend the Street Stir-fry with chicken and the regular hummus. The spice and delicious combination of the street stir-fry was completely mind-blowing. The chicken was cooked beautifully, and all the vegetables were perfectly proportioned, as well as the moments of ginger were great. As spicy as my dish was, it was not overwhelming, but when a slight spice would build up, the pita and hummus were the incredible touch of coolness that I needed. It felt like my taste buds took a needed swim after licking a jalapeño on a dare. I also got the kneffe cheesecake... which was... interesting. It wasn't bad.... but it's not something I'd get again. The texture was just off and not my cup of tea on the flavor either. But I refuse to waste food and, of course, ate it all. However, the opposite can definitely be said about the rice pudding... in all the right ways. Meaning, it was delicious and not too sweet but flavorful. Soft and went well with the cinnamon and strawberries. Next time I come back, because there will be a next time, I will be sure to check in at the hostess booth first.

    Great ambiance. Conscientious staff. I asked our server for no ice due to health condition and when she brought me my delicious guava lemonade ice-free. The portobello mushroom burger was muah!

    Large Jalapeño Cilantro a hummus with 2 pitas
    Ibis R.

    This place has a lot of vegan options and non vegan for everyone else, which is great since I had not been to any of their other locations after their Pasadena, CA location closed and the vegan menu back then was more limited. The cilantro hummus was delicious as I remember. Their wraps snd sauces were also great! The staff was also very friendly and the restaurant has a relaxed vibe. I would definitely return to try some of their many other vegan items.

    Mediterranean tofu (fried with no pickles)
    David L.

    They have a vegan menu with a bunch of interesting items on it. I enjoyed the Mediterranean tofu with garlic fries. Combining the two into one plate made them even better. Adding friends to my meal was only an extra $2.39 and they gave a pretty big portion. The server was good, made my tofu a little crispier than it usually is due to me asking. $13.38 and I am a full and happy man. My first time at pita jungle and I enjoyed my experience. I will be coming back to try the fallafal and other dishes on the vegan menu. Only negative part about this place is the parking. They only have two free parking spots, every other parking spot is $3 per hour.

    Brutus! Chicken Caesar Salad

    I entered and was immediately shown a table, and provided with a menu and cutlery. It was a Thursday evening, so I noticed it wasn't too busy. The place had warm lighting and faint music playing, which created a pleasant atmosphere to dine in. The walls had different science-themed murals on them, which added to the ambiance. The menu had a variety of healthy options to choose from and I ordered a combo main-course meal which was a good portion for just $9.99! The food came out in less than 10 minutes. The Brutus! Chicken Caesar Salad was a good mixture of some chicken with lots of veggies. I loved that it tasted fresh and wasn't dry even with all the leafy veggies. It also had crunchy croutons, which, when combined with the Chicken Enchilada Soup, tasted delicious! I also noticed they had take-away boxes, in case someone couldn't finish their meal. Overall, it was a great experience and I would highly recommend it if you're looking for healthy, tasty food!

    Keto and Paleo Platter
    Paul G.

    After a day of seeing the Botanical Gardens, we decided to stop for lunch at this establishment. I'm shocked this location isn't more popular. Large selection of vegan and gluten-free alternatives on the menu. It's a great place to hang out. Great customer service at a reasonable price. Everything is scrumptious, too. A return visit is long overdue. We had the steam veggie, nordic super green salad, keto and paleo platter and the garlic dip, pita and olives, all were great. It's a little blank but what else do you expect from a green and veggies option. I was a little concerned about the sit-down vs. order at the counter situation, but the service was quick and attentive. I would definitely come back here again. The employees are courteous and helpful. While it took a while for the manager to respond, he eventually came over and assisted. Hopefully I'll be back in the neighborhood soon enough to pay you another visit.

    "The Most Excellent Lamb Burger"
    Mark G.

    I had "The Most Excellent Lamb Burger"and it truly was most excellent! This burger goes down as one the THE best burgers I've ever eaten. A must try if you're eating at Pita Jungle! The service was amazing as well. Thank you for a great experience!!

Café Lalibela serves authentic Ethiopian cuisine with recipes that have been passed down through generation. The family that owns this place are passionate about sharing their culture. One of the family members came out and greeted our table. She shared a little bit about the history of Café Lalibela and how they made their way to Tempe. The staff also described the food that we were about to eat as they brought it out. We ordered a couple of platters and enjoyed eating it communally.

It was certainly the best tartare I've had in a very long time, with generous chunks of high-quality steak instead of being overly minced. The baked brie dip was outstanding, the grilled oysters were excellent, and my New York strip was cooked perfectly. My only small criticism is that the oyster appetizer came with just three oysters. For a $19 appetizer, I'd love to see at least four. An even number also makes sharing much easier, although my son generously let me have the extra one! Overall, this is a fantastic concept with great food, great service, and a memorable atmosphere. We can't wait to come back.

    My friend and I came in for Taste in Tempe, where they do a prix-fixe menu and had a delicious…read moredinner! We shared the pibil dumplings and the cheddar & kimchi croquettes for the appetizer. Both were really good but had a bit of a kick. For my entree I got the steak and it was cooked perfectly and the chimichurri sauce was so good. Lastly, I got the miso cheesecake for dessert and the flavors were incredible! I love the animal and jungle themed decor in this upscale restaurant. We were seated right next to the big stuffed leopard which was fun. Our waitress was super personable but there were a few service mistakes. My entree was missing the potatoes it was supposed to come with. And when they boxed my meal, they didn't include everything like the salad and chimichurri sauce. Luckily I checked and was able to get everything added, but staff shouldn't be neglecting or throwing away part of my meal. I would definitely come back here though as the ambience and food were top notch!

    Always great experience with a fun, modern ranch vibe! We got there just after happy hour…read more(unfortunately), but our server, Torrance, made the meal memorable. He was incredibly kind and attentive, especially with my friend who is deaf, making sure we always had water, napkins, and plenty of chips. The margarita flight is always a must for me, so I had to order one for my friend since it was her first visit. I told her that even though neither of us are into spicy margaritas, I knew she'd love it and I was right! Every margarita was delicious. I also ordered the lavender lemonade, which was refreshing and just as good. Ghost Ranch never seems to miss when it comes to drinks. Potato tacos! Another must have My friend ordered the Aztec Cake and insisted I'd regret not getting it. She was absolutely right. It was bomb and Torrance offered us a side of chips .TY. I ordered the short rib. It was flavorful, tender, and filling, with lots of garlic and savory flavor. I'm not sure if short rib is just not my thing, but it didn't wow me the way the Aztec Cake did. I warmed it up later and it was delicious a second time so no complaints. Excellent service, delicious drinks, and a fun way to spend the Fourth. We'll definitely be back!

Been waiting to check this place out for Happy Hour and finally got around to it with friends. Happy Hour is daily with $3 off all appetizers (not just selected as the menu says) in addition to drink specials. We ordered a few apps to share and had: - Chips with Guacamole and Salsa: solid - Queso Fundido: I was excited for this as friends have said they liked it, but the cheese harden within minutes and it wasn't as nice - Street Style Esquites: I was expecting more corn rather than mixed in another cheese dip and likewise, the cheese harden quickly. - Shrimp cocktail: it was pretty heavy on the liquid rather than thicken, but good - 3 potato tacos: okay, wasn't expected it to be fried so it was a bit greasy but loved the slaw it came with - Southwest egg roll: not bad, was a crowd's favorite and I liked the sauce it came with We didn't realize most of the apps came with tortilla chips otherwise we may have ordered differently. I got the frozen margarita and it was a bit sweet, but nice for the summer evening. Our server wasn't super attentive, but was nice whenever they came around. There's a sampler entree platter I'd like to try, but of all the appetizers we tried, the best was probably the chips with guacamole and salsa.

The restaurant and outdoor entertainment complex is huge and has a really fun, energetic vibe. According to the bartender, they have ping-pong, pickleball, and a big upstairs outdoor patio with amazing views of Tempe and the surrounding area. There's also a large parking lot, lots of outdoor seating, and even a dog park area, which makes it really easy to spend time here. The bartenders and wait staff were very friendly. Azbel was a great server. I had the bistro steak and fries and the Szechuan lettuce wraps, and both were really good. Portions were generous. During late-night happy hour my total was about $55 for a main entrée, an appetizer, a cocktail, and tip, which felt like a great deal. I was pleasantly surprised that happy hour runs every day Monday through Sunday from 3-6 PM and again from 8 PM to close. I also checked out the event venue on site, and it looks like it would be a great place for a company party, corporate event, or group gathering. I'll definitely be returning in the near future.
