So "ghost kitchens " are new me being an older guy. My son drove me here to pick up some dessert. So you have no personal interaction you order by a kiosk in the lobby. You're notified by your phone and you pick it up at the window around the corner. Kinda sad,kinda cool. The desserts we had were good and prepared by Papa Beard. Last words...sure. read more

They waited an hour after I ordered for them to tell me Baggins is closed and they were working on getting me a refund but didn't know how!!!! Never coming here again! Left hungry and very disappointed. Bad atmosphere, service and no food. I came for an actual Baggins and instead found this creepy, feels abandoned food court. The vibes are so off. This Baggins is part of what feels like an autonomous food court. You have to drive through an industrial park to find it. Then you park and walk around the building to the main entrance. There are no people, the interior feels like an empty waiting room from the 60s. You put your order in on the tablet. This is a food court so it's multiple popular places under one roof. Baggins was only called BGS. The atmosphere was so off, I would just drive up to the Shea location next time. I saw a lot of people picking up to go orders from the back door by the parking lot. That's the only way I would do it again. Don't bother ordering in person and waiting, feels like you are in an old elementary school with nobody there. And the wait is double what the machine quotes. They should just make it food delivery only. read more

The Hawaiian food here is amazing. My husband and I have come here many times and every time the Hawaiian food never fails. We always get our food within 5-20 minutes. It is a very easy process for ordering and there is board games and card games to play while waiting for your food. You can order online and pick up your food from one side, or order on a kiosk machine, and choose between a variety of restaurants and go into another room to wait for your food. I do highly enjoy eating here and the food is very good. read more

Tempe Food Court - Creamy chicken tonkatsu - Food Court Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

Super weird place. I already knew it was just a ghost kitchen going in but overall it was a kind of creepy and confusing experience. You order from a kiosk, fine. Wait in an empty room for a while, get a text your food is ready and walk down a hallway to wait in another empty room... after this point my food was supposedly ready but there was nothing there and nobody to talk to and I had to wait another 10-15 min for someone to appear who I could ask about it. At that point it was ready. Then the food was kinda just meh. Not worth it, especially for being so expensive. read more

Quite an interesting spot. Tempe Food Court is a modern concept called a "Ghost Kitchen". Ghost Kitchens are popping up all around the USA, and they boast around 30 restaurants under one roof. Kind of like when I was in school, and I'd be offered different cafeteria options. Typically, these places are takeout only, but there was a cozy dining room with a selfie wall and even some board games to play while waiting for your food. The staff was friendly, and we ordered from 3 different restaurants on the tablet. These restaurants ranged from good to pretty mediocre. From the outside of this place looks like someone's house, and it kind of does on the inside as well. Definitely more confusing than the traditional food courts at malls, but it seems this type of thing is the new normal. read more

We decided to try a new Indian place that opened here. We were near Tempe Lake and this place was not far. We went and ordered there through kiosk (that's the only option for onsite). A good amount of vendors available there overall. However, this place feels shady. Food gets delivered late as well and especially if you order from multiple vendors in same order like we did from 3 of them. The food tasted good but that again which vendor did you select. This place is more for food delivery needs and not a place to dine-in. read more

Visit: 2025 6 Stars from me! ________________________________________________ Tempe Food Court is a great place to grab some food and avoid the crowds at the restaurant. It offers a place to visit numerous restaurant kitchens without the hassle of crowds, waiting for help and more! It is not a place to sit down and eat (even though they have tables). Grab and Go. If you are a delivery driver it's a nice place to grab and deliver quickly without FOH issues. (See lots of complaints about time or not having stuff so you can eat) Please keep some things in mind, as that might clear some issues up - The folks you see behind the counter do not work for were you ordered your food from - The place is meant to be a pick up and take somewhere and eat. (home, friends, party, ect) - When you order it (ask for the needed items from the kitchen you ordered from: straw, extra fork, ect) - The folks behind the counter are there to help if you have issues picking up from kitchen - The time delays are from the kitchen, and may happen at peak times It's a nice little set of kitchens that allow me to grab my food on the way home from work without any issues. ________________________________________________ read more

I walked in thinking this was a actual food court with an actual baggins sandwiches, it isnt. You walk in and have to order off a touch screen menu and there isnt anyone in sight until you wander over to the door dash/uber eats side and they say you order through the screen menu for walk in. I dunno if these places all like have a name use deal or what with this place but it feels so weird that I just walked out cause I didn't trust it. read more

This was quite the experience for me. I enjoy my in person interactions when I'm out and this was not that. Upon entering the first space which felt like a mall food court, there are kiosk stands where one would place their order. There is a great selection of food and a vegan specific 'restaurant' available. (Heads up if you mapped this out and search vegan places, it may show up as a vegan spot but it's not all vegan) To continue, one places their order, receives a receipt and text about how long food will take. Then head into the next room, an even smaller food court, to wait. There is a simple water stand with small cups, bathrooms and plenty of seating. When the food is ready you will be notified and someone will place the food on the counter. Eat and enjoy! The human interaction was about 5 seconds of my visit. A woman handed my bag and walked away. So I cannot say much about service. The food was tasty and filling. Not bad. Not great. Would visit again if nothing else was open. read more

If you have any picky eaters in your family, this place is a godsend. A massive amount of restaurants and choices under one roof. Really cool place! read more

Interesting concept. You can order online or at the food court. The business share the kitchen and when your order is ready you get a text and pick up at the counter. It seems like this place is more geared towards take out however we sat and ate there. They have multiple tables and the ambiance is nice. I ordered tikka shack which I've tried before. Service was okay. I don't live near the area otherwise I might stop more often. It's a millennials dream to have as little human interaction while ordering food lol. read more

I love the concept...but the execution just falls short. Tried to come in on a weekend to try Fish Pop but there was some brunch event that completely boxed up the place and no one knew what was going on. Came back later in the week, I was able to try it but was frustrated by the long wait, premium charge for basic service etc. They didn't even have a screen to show the orders that were ready. Needs some refinement, but could be great. Again, I love the concept. read more

This place has been getting wrecked on Yelp and so I was not sure if I wanted to try it. But I'm glad I did, it seems they have worked out some of the kinks that people previously reported about a year ago. This place is essentially a ghost kitchen model for various businesses. They cater to delivery app orders, however they do direct customer orders as well. I don't use delivery apps so I've ordered from Tempe food court directly. So far I've tried 2 of the restaurants. I've eaten at Tikka Shack and Solar Vegan Eatery. I have ordered 3 ways- from their website, through Yelp, and in person on the tablet. Their webpage states: "Discover Options- We believe hungry customers shouldn't have to settle for one cuisine. Enjoy fresh new flavors from our rotating collection of multicultural restaurants. Eat Local- Many of our restaurateurs are first-time Arizona entrepreneurs with a passion for bringing their community together around food. Order Direct- Delivery apps can keep up to 30% in commission. When you order from Tempe Food Court, your money goes straight to the restaurant, not a delivery app." So this review is of the places I've tried and my overall experience of Tempe Food Court. I can't speak to all the options they have. Pros: - varied food choices. - Tikka Shack is tasty, ordered from them twice. - Solar is a decent Vegan option. - it's a good concept that helps small business restaurants launch themselves with lower overhead and it's a way for established restaurants to open another location, also again with lower overhead. - food is ready quickly. About 15 minutes from time of order to pickup. They send text messages for when it's ready for pick-up. Cons: - I confused the entrance of food delivery workers and the area for non delivery app customer orders/ pick-up. So, you need to pay attention for the first time you arrive. (You can pick up from both sides however the delivery side has a bunch of lockers and a tablet to sign in. Whereas the customer side has a waiting area and large dining room, and is of course "more cute" and a person greeted me for pickup). - Solar Vegan Eatery was tasty and provided large portions but damn it was expensive! I spent just about $50 for 2 people for essentially diner style food. I thought it was tasty but I wouldn't order from them again due to the price point. read more

Unfortunately a lot of overpriced food at one location and it's not really a food court it is more of a bunch of restaurants you order from an electronic menu....and there are a few tables in that area if you want to eat it there but seems like it was more made to go... Somebody else arrived here as I was reading the thing and they were like what is this...I told them order from this tablet and I think somebody brings it out....they were like this isn't what I thought I said me neither and I left and that other group of people left at the same time. read more

We came in search of the Hawaiian Bros ... and dole whip. Unfortunately they don't have that at this location but this food court concept is really interesting! The food court is found in what feels like an industrial area of Tempe, and looks like it was an old school or office building... easy to miss if you're not watching the map. I imagine this place was created to meet the growing needs of Uber eats options in the area because it feels like one of those ghost kitchen concepts. As many have mentioned, you walk in and place your order on a kiosk. Then hang out until your order is ready. High top seating is available. My order was ready in less than 5 minutes and they brought it right out to me. Would love to try other spots here at some point! read more

GHOST KITCHEN! WHO KNEW?! This whole concept is so crazy I love it! For those that do not know, this is a pick up/order delivery "food hall" where you can order from up to 50 different restaurants. I read some of the negative but didn't have any of the issues. I did my order online and got a text immediately saying that my order was received and would be ready in 20 minutes. All off it was true! This trip I ordered from Moonbowls and got a yummy Korean Bowl. While there I was told they have outdoor ordering and seating now. Will have to try that next time! When in Tempe and need quick food, order from Tempe Food Court- eat local! read more

Tempe Food Court - Front door/ pick up off 5th street. - Food Court Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

This place has an unusual location in the middle of industrial district South of Tempe Marketplace. It does have its own parking lot. There are some photos already of the ordering area. The problem here is that if you do not order ahead of time with Grubhub or Uber Eats then it is difficult to order and it takes along time to get the food. We walked in and tried to order which was difficult and then the order took over 30 minutes. The Food Court needs to make ordering more efficient. We ordered food from Santos Japanese Fuzion. The menu is small but the options are creative and taste great. The surfer roll was excellent and everything else was as expected. Bottom line food was very good but need to improve the ordering process for the Food Court read more

On Saturday, Dec. 12th, I ordered dinner via Grub Hub from Umami Tokyo Curry at Tempe Market Court. (Please see my review for Umami.) Tucked away in an industrial area is an older building that hosts several food kitchens that cater to take out only. Similar to "Kitchen United" in Scottsdale this ghost kitchen is giving Tempe mom and pop restaurateurs opportunities and exposure! Some want to test out a new food item, test a new concept or grow business from their food truck. The parking lot was bustling with Grub Hub/Door Dash drivers but is easy to navigate when picking up the order yourself. I enjoyed the cuisine last Saturday so much, that I'm looking forward to returning and supporting the other local businesses as well! read more

Apparently this is a thing!!! That I didn't know about, Ghost Kitchens preparing food exclusively Togo or for food delivery services like Grubhub, Postmates, and Doordash. GENIUS!!! The Tempe food court is located in an industrial area,but don't be discouraged the food options are plentiful for all tastes, dietary restrictions or preferences. The Tempe food court has at least 2 dozen different restaurant kitchens that you can order from a kiosk in the lobby and pay for it with your CC. Wait a few moments in the pick up area, they call your name for you to pick up the order. In the first lobby there are tables and chairs if you wanted to stay and done there or you can take it home to enjoy. The other option of course is to order from your favorite food delivery service but then you don't get to experience this cool building and friendly staff. Restaurant hours vary with some offering only breakfast and others available late night only. One way to describe this concept is like one big food truck festival in one location. Try a little bit of this and that until your satisfied. We need one of these where I live! Check this place out in person, support local small business as often as possible. Enjoy! read more

What a cool idea! Much like the similar food court in North Scottsdale, this Tempe food court offers many different varieties of food in one location so a whole family, couple, or group of friends can get different types of food yet get them all and eat them at the same time at the same place. Some of the different restaurants are as follows: Aaron Michael's Concessions (Seafood) White Castle Fuku Sushi Crazi's Hot Chicken Hana Hawaiian Grill Lola's Canine Cafe Hot Thai Kitchen Mac-A-Licious Pho and Boba Tea Solar: A Vegan Eatery Tikka Shack True Food Kitchen That's just a few of the restaurants too! So, chances are you'll find something you'll like no matter what mood you're in. Note that some of the restaurants listed aren't open yet or have different hours than others. The building is in a very industrial part of Tempe nearish Tempe Marketplace. The parking lot is quite big and ordering is done online. We've ordered from White Castle here and while it did take 5-10 minutes longer than the expected pickup time it was a fairly easy and straightforward process to pay and get the food. I'd definitely like to try more from Tempe Food Court! read more

I work across the street from the food court and occasionally get lunch there when I'm busy. I usually get Hawaiian, but opted to try Tokyo Teriyaki and Grill today. Got the Teriyaki chicken bowl with extra Teriyaki sauce X2 for .75 extra per side. I also ordered a 5 piece tempura shrimp with sweet and sour sauce included. There was nothing Teriyaki about the bowl and they put 2 tiny soy sauce packets in the bag (again not Teriyaki). The sauce with the shrimp was basically soy sauce. Not sweet and sour sauce. Don't think after throwing most of my $25+ lunch in the trash I'll be going there again. read more

Definitely an interesting experience! We came for Birria at the Taco Spot but they literally have all your cravings. Mukbangers.... This is your spot.

We were looking for a specific place to eat and this is where we were taken to on Maps. So we decided to try it out. When we walked in there's one kiosk to order food and a line but we read the signs by the kiosk where you can login online and order food and that's what we decided to do instead of wait. You order your food like you would on a normal app but the tricky part came in to play when you were waiting for your food I got two drinks and it said it would be a 30 minute wait normally I would never wait that long for drinks but we just wanted to see if that was the way the app worked. And the drinks ended up taking only 14 minutes. And then when we ordered food also at the same time the food 10 minutes later got canceled for an unknown reason. So all we had left after waiting was two drinks and still no food that we wanted. It's a great concepts and we want to try it again soon. read more

Cool concept but terrible execution. I ordered thru uber eats the Hawaiian restaurant hana I believe. The driver did great was here early and bag was closed and no damage to food. I ordered teriyaki chicken and description was chicken breast. I do not eat dark meat so this was important. Well it was leg and thigh meat and disgusting gross stuff. Looked old and dry. It is hard to complain since no phone number. When I finally figured out how to complain on the app and take the pic it says the system did not think there was anything for them to do. I finally left a written message that I could not eat it and wanted them to replace and bring it. That will not happen. They did end up refunding. I'm still hungry. Plus the meal was teriyaki chicken, macaroni salad and rice and roll. No dividers in the container so everything mixes together and soggy. Never again. I Will only order from a restaurant I can call them if a problem. read more

Left a bad taste in my mouth because of the customer service. Didn't even get to put in an order because one of the employees rude comments.

My waffle from Betty's Breakfast House was Mmmmm..... I also ordered a scramble (Yikes!) You get your monies worth of food, so I hope you're crazy hungry when you order. They did not disappoint.

I came to pick up a Capriottis sandwich just like I normally do at they're regular locations around town. Expecting the same Service I get from every other location, where the sandwich usually only takes 5-10 minutes to prepare, I had mistaken this place for the norm. I realized this place is 99% just a postmates kitchen with countless restaurants operating out of it (30+) Worst part is you end up stuck at the back of the food delivery/postmates line. Ended up sitting in the makeshift non-inviting lobby for over 45 minutes for just a sandwich. Would not recommend this spot as a sit down option. Even heard people mentioning they thought the food was reheated. Also only take cash, an elderly gentlemen was turned away for not having a card even though it's not openly advertised anywhere. read more

FYI these are ghost kitchens and not real restaurants so the atmosphere is blah. It's meant for delivery drivers and to go orders. In the first room you order from a kiosk and the second room is where you pick up your food. I wouldn't recommend coming here for pickup as there's no priority for pickup orders, you're just in the delivery order line. I would not recommend this place. read more

There are many food options here but they are not good with in person orders. We used a kiosk to place our order and waited 30 minutes only to learn it never went through. The kiosk was out of paper so no receipt was printed. They are set up for online ordering but even people who do that are waiting a long time. I saw many Uber drivers getting upset for late pickups. Order ahead if you really want food here but even then prepare for a delay. read more

Interesting concept. Like others have said, better to get food and go. Kind of dirty tables. No wipes. You go out and get your food from a locker. Can't tell from the menu how big the item is.

I have gone here twice and ordered from Capriotti's both times. Service was relatively fast and the food tasted fresh.
