Locally well priced and great proportioned Greek food. My friend and I both ordered what the other person preferred. He appreciated the falafel and I loved his shawarma plate along with the pita and hummus that I got. We were gifted amazing soup and desserts while we waited which really made an impression. It felt homie and very clean inside. These people care about their restaurant. Unfortunately I will take off a star because we waited for awhile, even with their apology, and his food didn't come with a pita as it showed on their photo. I think anyone who wants Greek should support them.

This place is just like its food and owners. AMAZING!! This is a family owned business and the owners are so friendly and kind. I really wanted to try the baklava and not only did I try the baklava which was delicious and decadent but also Abby greeted me with a sample of her creation of a cream filled phyllo dough pastry. I ended up taking a pound of sweets and sharing them with friends because I can't gate keep this place I also took 2 plates of whatever she recommended, (the pictures are below) which was so good and flavorful. I enjoyed how warm and inviting this place felt. Thank you Abby And Mariam for making my visit so special and sharing a part of your story with me

The food here was fire! The service was phenomenal! Will absolutely tell my friends and family to eat here. The place is cute and warm inside. Amazing choice. Turkish and Arabic kebabs were awesome.

I really wanted to love this place as it is conveniently located and has decent parking. I usually get the hamburger meat kebab, which they call Kofta beef skewers. I saw the description and is seemed to be cubideh or at least similar. Well, the plate includes 2 pieces of the meat and they were small compared to other places. Also, they did not have much flavor/onion/spices and were quite lean. I do like meat just with salt, so that was OK, but I was expecting a much more flavorful (and bigger) skewers. The meat was quite dry/lean but I am still giving 4 starts because it was a decent meal and the staff was very friendly. I placed the order in a rush and picked up in a rush. I do remember seeing the option for the meat temperature when I was going to order earlier, and I thought about selecting medium or medium well, but I do not remember making a selection, so I do not know if I am confused about it or if it defaulted to well done and I did not notice. I did like the addition of hummus to the plate, and the salad was good. Also, the rice was not my favorite, it had sort of a sweetness to it, I think it tasted like cardamom, which I was not expecting. I will try to stop by with more time and chat with the staff and ask some questions to see if I can find another favorite because I ordered what I always order at mediterranean places and it did not go well. There was no sumac in my bag, just a small container with some sort of mayonnaise dip, it looks pink so it may have some sumac but I did not taste it in the dip or the meat.

Tender Grilled to perfection! Homemade Hummus with Round Pita. Garlic Dip on the Side. Owner so interested in her guests. When you order a platter you are served a small bowl of lentil soup. Great touch to keep your Tastebuds engaged. Yellow Rice is the base of this dish. Desserts are to die for, need to keep the weight off. Everything is made on the premise! Take away box!

What a lovely charming local ethnic restaurant! We visited for lunch with a 4-year-old after swim lessons at nearby Hubbard family swim school. Well standing in line looking at the menu, she managed to tip over all of the velvet ropes, their plastic stanchions are top-heavy and quite a hazard in the lobby. Does foot traffic really justify this clap trap? Two employees watched us struggle to right then, one was literally standing right there and did nothing. The child could have been hurt, so this needs to be addressed. Our cashier was very smiley but seemed not to understand any of my questions. In the menu pictures they show the gyros as a pressed and formed prefab sheet not shaved. So I didn't order gyros. I chose the chicken shawarma plate but didn't understand it came with items (besides salad and rice) which I could not eat due to diet restrictions. I would not have paid for a platter with giant Pita and hummus, I would have gotten a simpler dish which I could have eaten fully. The chicken was very tender and the shawarma was more deeply seasoned than I am accustomed to. However, I really prefer white meat and I believe this was dark. I am thankful it was not covered with the traditional mayonnaise shawarma sauce. It was on the side. I'd much prefer tzatziki unfortunately I did not know to ask for it. The rice was fluffy basmati and they generously brought lentil soup for the table to start the meal. The preschooler devoured two soups and our hostess was so amused she brought more for us to take to go. My companion ordered a beef shawarma platter and was very happy with her choice, it was shaved ground meat as I would have expected the gyros to be! We all had leftovers, my husband had an entire meal off mine. So the value is high even if your entree is $17. I would like to see lunch specials, or smaller versions made available on the menu! This family business goes out of their way to be personal, cordial and provide over the top generous food, with a few minor potholes to fill. The bakery looks fabulous too!

This place is delicious! The baklavas was sooo amazing - loved the pistachio one!! We got a beef shawarma flatbread - delicious. The French fries are good but likely from a bag. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the jalapeno poppers. We will be back!

Wow! Why did it take me so long to visit this place. Maybe cos its tucked around the side of 40th and T Bird... Well, first impressions as you walk in the door is amazing,,, larger than you think from outside, colorful umbrellas hanging from the ceiling and the smell of incredible fresh prepared sweets, almonds, pistachios honey and flaky pastries! Ordered the Giro plate meal, great portion size and perfect hummus included, prepared in house i think. Giro meat was well flavored and juicy with a fresh pita. Family owned and operated and it shows, met the daughter, son and Dad, great atmosphere, with a lot of locals dropping in for tea a pastries. This will become a regular visit for me!

I'm glad I found another middle eastern restaurant and supporting a small business. The ambiance was nice with hanging umbrellas throughout the store. Reminding me of that section in Puerto Rico where ppl take pictures. As for the food: Beef/lamb Gyro: I was say 9/10, the basmati turmeric rice was a little tough, could be due to overcooking or less water, but overall great. The meat seasoning had a good flavor and definitely you can't taste the gaminess from the lamb. Chicken Shawarma: I will give this 8.5/10, as the flavor of the chicken was great but a tad bit dry. Sweets: definitely the first thing you smell walking into the store. That rich buttery sense that hits you right in the nose. Yum ! In terms of service: great, got my food shortly after ordering with my hour lunch.

Food was very fresh and favorful. The staff was friendly and amiable. We love the food AND the sweets. I keep coming back and it's always delicious!

Great family owned restaurant! The food was very good! My family mainly came here for the sweets but saw the food and end up trying a combo plate to go. While we were waiting, they let us try a cup of lentil soup which was very flavorful! We all enjoyed it! The food was great but the baklava was delicious! Just the right amount of nuts and sweetness! We love the pistachio ones. If you're in the area check them out! You will not be disappointed!

Navita P.

Sooo happy my fellow yelpers recommended this restaurant!! The kindest lady who seemed to be the owner took my order and I observed her interaction with other customers and she was very welcoming and attentive to everyone. I got the falafel and I was very pleased with my plate. Very filling for the long day of driving I had ahead of me. Whenever I'm in town I will visit.

Sasa was a bit of a drive for us, but we figured, why not? We will make this drive very often from now on. The food was amazing. First, they brought us lentil soup (which we didn't order). I didn't even know I liked lentil soup. This was very good. When they brought out what we ordered, a gyro and a chicken shawarma(sp?), they were the best we have ever found when out dining. If you are even thinking about middle eastern good GO HERE! The only thing better than the food were the owner and employees. Do yourself a favor and go here. Since it was our first time they gave us a few sweets to take home with us. I'm sure they will be as good as the stellar food. read more

I recently met here for lunch with a group of neighbor friends. We definitely had a 5-star experience. Those who waited on us were friendly and patient, answering each of our questions about menu items. We ordered a variety, including chicken shawarma, falafel sandwich, hummus, baba ghanoush and cheesesteak (yes, cheesesteak!). Our orders were ready quickly, and the quality of each dish was outstanding. Fresh ingredients and spiced just right. Best of all was the lentil soup. Absolutely delicious--we all agreed it is the best we've had anywhere. They also serve a huge variety of cookies and pastries. These items are located in cases at the entrance, where it's quick & easy to grab a to-go bag of goodies. Also, a few days later, my husband and I ordered online for takeout. Same experience-- the order was ready quickly, accurately, and all was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend this casual restaurant. read more

1st Visit to Sasa last night and the whole family was impressed with everything. The food was very good, and the service and kindness made us feel as if we were visiting someone at home. The highlight of the night was being introduced to Mid-East Deserts. I've been to many many kabob/mid-east restaurants, and none ever had any. Do yourself a favor and save room because the deserts are something you will be talking about and craving for a while. EDIT: I Noticed the only bad review complaining about small potions...My Wife Daughter and me were stuffed about 1/3 of the way through our dish and had enough left over to get stuffed at home again the next day. We ordered two meals and some french frys (Great BTW). Two star review for this place only shows 2 things, 1. crazy people know how to use the internet and 2. crazy people still struggle with using Google Maps. read more

The Delicatessen By Chef Joey

The Delicatessen on Tatum is the kind of place that tricks you into thinking you're just grabbing…read more"something quick," and then you're standing in a Sunday 11am line staring at the menu like it's a Netflix queue--too many good options, not enough stomach capacity. You order first and then find a seat, so it's a little bit of a shuffle, but the woman behind the counter was genuinely helpful with recommendations and what's popular. And once we ordered, the food came out pretty fast. We kicked things off with the Big Dill appetizer, and when they say "giant," they're not kidding. It's a comically large pickle, seasoned up and cut into four spears. The seasoning was actually really good, nice flavor, the right amount of spice. I'll be honest: I'm not a huge pickle person, so I didn't fall in love... but if you are a pickle person, this is absolutely your moment. I tried the brunch burrito and it was a solid portion, filling, well-built, and the avocado salsa helped a lot (I was using it like a cheat code). The only reason I wouldn't come back specifically for that burrito is the flavors didn't really pop for me, and I wished the potatoes had more crisp and there was more seasoning on the eggs. It wasn't bad at all just not a "I'm still thinking about this tomorrow" type of burrito. The drinks though? Really unique, I had the French toast latte and the banana hazelnut latte, and they serve them in this super cool commercial can sealer setup. It's such a clever touch as if your coffee came with packaging confidence. Better yet, the lattes were actually delicious and you could taste the quality of the beans underneath the flavors. We also tried the Philly cheesesteak, and it's a BIG sandwich on what tastes like a homemade sesame hoagie. The "shaved ribeye" looked more like finely chopped/ground ribeye, but honestly... it worked. It tasted great with the cheese sauce and hit the spot. The fries that came with it were steak fries, cooked to perfection, with a few extra-crispy pieces mixed in (which is basically the fry jackpot). And then there was the avocado + burrata bagel... which might be the best bagel I've ever had and I don't say that lightly. The everything bagel was fresh, toasted perfectly, and the toppings blended together so well that every bite somehow got better than the last. I also tried the lox and it was worth the money, generous smoked salmon, capers, tomato, the whole deal. Bottom line: there's a lot to love here, and it's going to take me a few more visits to work through all the menu items that look worth trying. Come hungry, expect a line at peak brunch, and don't leave without that avocado burrata bagel (and maybe one of those sealed lattes, because it's just fun).

I was excited to not only see a new Chef Joey concept, but especially a new bagel joint in the…read morearea. For our bagel, we ordered an everything bagel with charcuterie cream cheese, which I can best describe as everything but the kitchen sink - capicola, mortadella, salami, provolone, artichokes, tomoatoes, roasted peppers, pepperocini, olives and red onion - all chopped up and mixed into the cream cheese. Somehow it all seems to work in terms of flavor, but as for the bagel itself I wish it were a bit bigger and had more chew, although it was decent. The biggest disappointment was with our cinnamon roll and coffees. They were out of the regular cinnamon roll so we ordered the salted caramel one. The sad part was it was cold. I mean who wants a cold cinnamon roll, even the one at Cinnabon is warm. As for the coffees, we ordered the banana hazelnut and strawberry matcha. We assumed the coffees would be hot but were given iced coffees. Only later we noticed they can be ordered either hot or iced, and wished the server had asked for our preference. As for the iced coffees, I'm not quite sure I understand the whole concept of putting them in soda cans, as the foam got stuck to the top of the can and all the flavor sank down to the bottom.

From the outside, the place doesn't look like much, tucked away in a small shopping center. Once inside, there are a plentiful number of tables in the smallish restaurant, which does not feel at all cramped. It is tastefully decorated, and you order at a counter, and they will either call you to get your food or bring it out to you. On the day we were there, the owner was behind the counter and took our order. He asked if we had been there before, and since I had not, he took the time to explain the menu to me. They focus nearly exclusively on chicken tenders, and we opted to share The Three Tenders, which comes with...you guessed it...three chicken tenders (with your choice of heat level), three warmed tortillas, pickles, and alley sauce (the house dipping sauce) on the side. We added sides of French fries and Cole slaw, and the owner gave me a free fountain drink since it was my first time there. So nice! We grabbed a high-top table, and once the food came out, and I bit into the first tender, I knew I was eating the best chicken tenders I have ever eaten. Seriously. These are awesome and at a decent price, too. The tenders are very large and perfectly breaded. The spiciness matches the heat level you choose--not to little and not too much. No mushy tempura batter here either. And the house dipping sauce was perfectly suited to the tenders. The fries and slaw were great, too. If you like chicken tenders, you won't regret trying Hot Chicken Alley!

John was very friendly and you can tell has a genuine passion for what he does, and it shows in how he treats his staff. The restaurant is clean, free of dust, trash, and they have music playing.

I also opted in for macaroni salad which was surprisingly delicious. The macaroni was firm and the dressing and overall dish was nice and cold. I appreciate a good sandwich that isn't salty, and this Rattler was a perfect balance of bread down to the lettuce and sauce. Surprised this is my first time seeing this place.

I first heard about this place from a friend who lives in Tucson but didn't give much thought to it until I actually saw the restaurant a few months ago while I was at another store in the shopping center. After multiple visits, I can conclude that I enjoy more of their cold sandwiches than their grilled/hot ones. My top three picks in no particular order would be the Baggin's club, high Baggin's, and the chicken rojo. All are different in their own way, but what they do have in common is that they are jam packed with ingredients and bursting in flavor. I haven't tried all their soups and sides yet but from what I've tried so far, I would say the tomato basil bisque has been my favorite. It accompanies well with many sandwiches I've had. The only thing I didn't care for much from here were any of the sandwiches with chicken. Their chicken was a bit too dry for my preferences. So far, I've yet to have a bad experience here. The staff are always warm, friendly, and patient. They try to get your orders out in a timely manner, but they do get busy at times. I usually take my food to go but they have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating options if you want to dine in.

Also bring a group. The portions are huge and the food is clearly meant to be shared. Trust me on this one, bring friends. I've tried a bunch of dishes here, and there are a few I always go back to. For the table, Camarones Locos is an easy choice. The flame grilled shrimp comes out hot and full of flavor, perfect for passing around. La Patrona ceviche tower is massive and worth the order. When it hits the table, you immediately feel good about the decision. El Pulpazo is technically an entrée, but we always order it as a shareable. The octopus is grilled perfectly and it comes with rice and beans, so everyone gets a little of everything. For entrées, my number one pick is the Lobster and Crab Enchiladas with green sauce. I think about this dish at least once a week. The enchiladas are packed with lobster and crab, and the green sauce ties the whole thing together. Honestly, I could talk about this place all day.

We never would have been seated because the owner never said anything to us. Service is horrible, and the owner did nothing to make up for his mistake.

I recently visited Sasa in North Phoenix, and it instantly became one of my new favorite Mediterranean spots. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming, with a relaxed vibe that made it easy to settle in and enjoy the experience. I ordered the combo plate, which came with chicken kebab, kefta kebab, and cube steak, and every single item was outstanding. The chicken kebab was incredibly tender and perfectly seasoned, with that smoky, char-grilled flavor you hope for but rarely find. The kefta kebab was rich, juicy, and packed with spices that tasted authentic and thoughtfully balanced. The cube steak was another highlight succulent, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The portion was generous, and all the sides and accompaniments were equally fresh and delicious, tying the whole plate together beautifully. You can tell the kitchen puts real care into their ingredients and preparation. The service was friendly and attentive without feeling rushed, and the staff genuinely made the experience even better with their welcoming attitude and quick recommendations. If you're craving bold Mediterranean flavors and hearty, satisfying plates, Sasa is absolutely worth the visit. I'm already looking forward to going back and trying more of their menu! read more

I recently had breakfast at Sasa Restaurant & Sweets, and it was a truly enjoyable experience. The menu offered a great variety of sweet and savory options, and everything I tried was fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The dishes were flavorful and comforting, with just the right balance of ingredients that made each bite satisfying. What stood out the most was the presentation each plate looked inviting, with vibrant colors and attention to detail. The portion sizes were generous, making it a fulfilling start to the day without feeling too heavy. Their coffee and fresh juices complemented the meal perfectly, adding a refreshing touch. The ambiance of Sasa Restaurant & Sweets also added to the experience. The space felt warm and welcoming, with friendly staff who were attentive without being intrusive.

We're always on the hunt for the best Mediterranean food in Arizona, and this place has truly set the bar! The food was absolutely delicious--perfectly seasoned, flavorful, and generously portioned for the price. But what truly stood out was the hospitality. We felt genuinely welcomed from the moment we walked in. The owners were incredibly friendly and attentive, making the experience feel personal and memorable. To top it off, they have a talented pastry chef with an impressive variety of baklava that looked as amazing as it tasted. We asked if they served coffee, and not only did he make us a fantastic cup, but he also paired it with a few rolls of filled baklava--on the house! We were blown away by the kindness and care. I would go back in a heartbeat and highly recommend this place to anyone who loves authentic Mediterranean cuisine. From the savory dishes to the sweet treats, everything was spot on.

Sasa has quickly become our absolute favorite spot! Every time my wife and I visit, we're greeted with the warmest hospitality from the family who runs this gem.
