Why have I not tried this place before? After a movie, while roaming around the outdoor shops, the familiar voices/sounds of "I'm Hungry" starts to be heard from the family.... they always set me up so well. The portion sizes are huge! Like BIG! Easily shared between 2 people for one order. The 4 of us shared a "Yellowfin Tuna Honey Sesame Salad" and a "Chicken Del Sol". The tuna was seared to perfection and not overcooked, and the chicken was moist and tender... both dishes satisfied the entire bunch! It was busy, and service was a little slow. But, nothing that could not be dealt with. And, when the server did come around, he made sure we were well taken care of before moving on. At around $11/plate, and only having to order 2, this is a great place to bring the family if on a budget and looking for good quality food! Lastly - the bathrooms were clean and well kept. I was a little surprised considering how busy they were. And, with little girls, clean bathrooms are a huge plus in my book!

I stopped in for a bowl of soup and a beer. From the start, I knew I wouldn't like this place...they layout is neat, it's clean, but it is loud and the staff are bordering on terrible. The hostess seemed irritated when I just wanted to walk myself to the bar. The bartender took my order of a beer, but also seemed irritated when I just wanted a cup of soup and no real meal. The soup came out a few minutes later with some attitude. The soup itself, coconut curry, wasn't very good, yet was seemingly quite overpriced for the size and quality. From the staff and fellow customers, I feel like this place succeeds on its "cool factor". That is, it can convince people it's cool and charge subsequent prices with mediocre food as a result. However....I do highly recommend this place if you're looking for a quality douchebag in your life. Staff and customer base seem full of them!

I am so happy Pita Jungle opened in Norterra Shops! The menu is the same at this location as the rest. I LOVE the decor at this location. The art is great and there is a nice area to eat outside. The service is usually good and the food is always fresh. I come here for Happy Hour with my teacher friends after work. The specials on small plates and drinks are perfect! We usually get the hummus, shrimp, garlic chicken, and possibly the scallops. I love everything, but the scallops. They seem to have a weird taste to them. I recommend Pita Jungle for anyone who wants to have fresh healthy food. :-)

I really like the type of food that is served here. Mostly Mediterranean dishes which is my favorite cuisine. The only negative is that this place can get annoyingly crowded sometimes.
(4)Brittany W.
Service is sometimes too slow and unattentive. But food is always good and happy hour beers go well with the happy hour hummus trio tapas.
(4)Barry F.
You would think with a name like this they would have homemade quality pita. Not so. Do you like cardboard? Do you like loud? Do you like NO protein? Then this is the place for you. Won't go back. When I asked about the Pita the manager told me that corporate can't decide on a recipe. Give me a break. Don't go.
(2)Emilie P.
Can we call it 4.5? Close to home and work, I LOVE Pita Jungle! No matter what you order (newbie or Mediterranean pro)--it's affordable, plentiful and delicious! I've been for lunch, HH and dinner and I've never been disappointed. Though I'm an omnivore, the vegetarian antipasto appetizer sampler is my fav and I could eat off this for multiple sittings (if you are there for HH and are going to order vegetarian tapas...you may actually SAVE money by just ordering the sampler app at about $11). Lastly, I usually find any main chicken course to be dull and am always skeptical. But the Wood-Fired Chicken is truly delish and I *may* possibly salivate at night for it...
(4)Lisa W.
Service, Service, Service!!!!! Not only is the food amazing each and EVERY time, but our Server, Cristal was the best!!!!!! We will be sure to request her again! Thank you Cristal for making dinner with my Mom so enjoyable!!!!
(5)Nadine H.
This place is ok. The food isn't as healthy as I would like however there is not a lot around to choose from.
(3)Christian O.
I love Pita Jungle always fresh and delicious.
(4)Chris C.
I like this location. I do sales in the area and it is always quick and affordable. If I bring others to dine it is not as fast but you get good healthy food for an affordable amount. My customers seem to like it as well.
(5)Tom T.
Tried PJ for the first time during a biz trip, will eat here upon every return. The food is fresh, healthy and delicious. The wait staff is relaxed and appropriately engaging. LOVE IT - a bright spot!

Happy hour is a good time to go. Prices are good, bartender seemed kinda stoned which was fine. Tapas sound soooo goood, and overall they ARE soo good. Just be warned the portions are teensie weenie on them. I also ordered the Gyro which came on a plate all by it's lonesome. I felt sorry that I was going to eat it without any extra accompaniments. Everything tasted really amazing. It had nothing to do with the two $2 Stella's that I drank in record time (it was cold out come on!) The tapas I ordered were: 3 Hummus - I would say it was A-ok Dolmas - 2 dolmas cut into 4 were very good Pita - A bit chewy and dry but still edible The mother and daughter sitting at the bar bitching to one another about men ordered what looked to be far better than what I got... they got some sort of plate of hummus with meat on top (?) and some sort of mashed potato looking item. They kept looking at me as if they wanted to share, but I was too busy chugging down my drinks and laughing at the stoned bartender. I will go back for sure.
(3)Stacy S.
I love Pita Jungle. Everything I've ever ordered at Pita Jungle has been delicious. This particular Pita Jungle has a really nice modern interior. They have great happy hour specials too. Order a few small side dishes and get a glass of wine. Even my 4 year old likes the food here and she's one of the pickiest eaters ever.
(4)Shelly B.
Friend and I lunched here yesterday. Another good experience at Pita Jungle. For me, I really like the menu with food and profiles that are far away from fried food and burgers. The Shrimp appetizer with cilantro, tomato, and pita bread w/pesto was very good and big enough in portion to work as my meal. Yum!
(4)Greg E.
My wife, son and I went to Pita for the first time on Father's Day. What a great experience we had. Amazing food and our server (Cristal) was amazing. I would ask for her seating area, but I am sure ALL the wait staff there is amazing. My wife and I were surprised how yummy the food was. Totally didn't expect that. We will be back there again, that's for sure. Thank you Cristal for making our first time there a great one at that!!
(5)John S.
Waitress needs to learn how to listen and put a order in. Asked for no onions on salad. Came with onions. Really? Than 2 minutes after salad came main meal came. Timing people.
(1)Michelle A.
Like Arlin, I'm super happy to see another great place open at Norterra. We went here with another couple and their children. Great menu...and it's really very well appointed. We had some slow service, but I'm attributing this to it being new. They really seem to be trying to get things right. Took a while for our drinks to be refreshed and to place our order-and the seating process seemed to take longer than necessary. I'm sure within a couple of months things will be running smoothly. We'll be back.
(3)Gary K.
We went early because we had my 12yr old, two six year old girls and a baby, plus my spouse - were celebrating anniversary. Ordered 10 of the Tapas items which are $2 to $3 each. Hummus, garlic dip, scallops were the best. Mussels were obviously low-grade frozen (two for $2), shrimp was just okay, felafel was okay. Kids meals were healthy - not the standard chicken fingers and fries. Kids need to be ready for veggies, cous cous and my kids had veggie burger patties which they liked. In fact, all three kids said they really liked the place and want to go back. Now the main meals good to bad: my son's philly cheesesteak on flatbread was terriffic, my wife's fish was badly overcooked & had to be replaced, and my Gyro was surprisingly bland & luke warm. I ordered Gyro to see how well they do a standard Med style dish, like ordering spaghetti & meatballs at an Italian place. I was really surprised how mediocre it was. I wanted something hot, fresh and with terrific gyro sauce. This isn't going to be your NYC street-corner delicious Gyro that's for sure. This experience would've been worse but service was excellent. Our young server didn't get flustered with a whole gaggle of kids to deal with, in fact there were at least three other families there. The manager came over to personally deal with my wife's poor fish dish and replaced it promptly. Overall I would give it another shot but I'm not expecting the most fabulous food from this place. Maybe the kitchen was just having an off night, but since the family was treated right I'm pretty happy.

We moved down here from Flagstaff, so the first time I had Pita Jungle was up north. It was great food, but piss poor service up there. Occasionally we'd get sat and then the server or whoever would never show up... ever. When we got down here we found out there was a Pita Jungle down the street and we were a little apprehensive to go there due to a few bad experiences at another location. When we finally went, we had great service, and have returned quite a few times since. We try not to come here too often for fear of it getting old. The food is not always great, but still eatable. When it's not great, it's just a little bland (only thing keeping it from being a 5 star). The Chicken Curry Salad is hands down my favorite dish. I'm usually shocked by the portion sizes. I don't think I've ever had a small portion here. The Chicken Curry Salad and the Medchilada are HUGE. And that's not a complaint. They also have, hands down, the BEST hummus. Every server we've had here has been on point and speedy. I read a couple of other reviews about this location and I have retort: I don't care what my server is doing elsewhere in the restaurant as long as I get good service. If he/she is serving a table clear on the other side of the restaurant and my service doesn't suffer then I'm a happy camper. Part of the other reasons we keep returning to this location are the prices. Good size portion dishes are right at $10. Other places with similar dishes would be in the realm of $19-$23.
(4)Bill S.
The happy hour tapas are the hidden gem here...sauteed scallops, sauteed mushrooms, etc. a great value and great food.
(5)Alex L.
great food bad service , staff is very obtuse , no attention to detail, love the good food I will take bad service ,...
(1)Kirstin E.
Glad to finally go to a PJ where all the girls are actually CLOTHED! I love me some PJ but always hate going in and having to be subjected to the waitresses in barely there clothing, the girls here are tastefully dressed. This is for sure the most upscale looking of all the PJ's. The food was all just as good as it is at the other locations. My only complaint is that I ordered the nachos and they gave me a HUGE portion of chips and almost no cheese or other toppings. Usually the nachos are smothered in toppings so this was disappointing. I will go back here againl
(4)Paul D.
This place was awesome. Great food great service. I was really impressed. We will be back.
(5)Jake D.
I've stopped by this location a couple times over the past month and both times have received good service. The inside is new and clean, the wait staff had no problem splitting the checks for our group. I'm on a no carb/no potato kick and the wood fired chicken has been my go to on both occasions (roasted veggies substituted for the mashed potato), the portion was very generous for only $9.99! I probably could have taken half of it home for another meal but it tasted so good I polished it off with no regrets.

This is the third Pita Jungle in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area I have been to. It is quite new and everything was clean and bright. We went last night, a Friday night, at around 6:30 pm. There was a short wait for the two of us, but probably only 5 minutes. There were loads of families with children there, which I do like to see. The atmosphere was rather loud, but it suits the time of day. I've also been here in the afternoon and it was quieter. I really enjoy Pita Jungle's food. Although I didn't have the hummus this go round, I like it. Last night I tried two specials, the coconut curry soup and a couscous salad. As to the gentleman who ordered a beer and the soup and didn't like it, I think that might be because the soup has a delicate flavor and beer would likely make it impossible to taste. It reminded me of a lovely corn chowder made in a vegetable broth base with curry and light coconut flavor. The chunks in the soup included garbanzo beans and red pepper. I thought it was delicious. The salads here are always large. Unless you have an enormous appetite, expect to leave some on the plate. The couscous salad was made with spinach, parsley, red pepper, tomatoes, pineapple and many other things I've probably forgotten. I found the pineapple a bit overwhelming in the salad. I wanted more parsley because it goes so well with this salad. My husband ordered the gyro and ate it all, I didn't hear any complaints. The hostess was friendly and our waitress did a good job. In the span of our meal (I think we were in and out of there in 30 minutes) she refilled the water glasses three times, checked on the bowl of soup that didn't come out with the rest of the order and brought us our check. Everyone working there was dressed in a trendy style, but I think it adds to the atmosphere. We will definitely eat here again - probably with our kids next time.
(4)Grace G.
Like the atmosphere here. The food is great, especially if you want good food, great taste, and watching what you eat. I rather enjoyed the vegetarian dishes and especially enjoy the hummus. Try the trio hummus plate. Yummy!
(4)Nicole S.
I've come to Pita Jungle Norterra many times and just love it like no other. I have yet to Yelp about it so here I am. Tonight we experienced yet another amazing night of dining over $3 wines and a variety of delicious meals. Our waitress, Liz, was not only very friendly, but also very attentive. The food was lovely, the atmosphere perfect as usual, and the staff warm and caring. Can't wait for our next venture to the jungle.
(5)Jason B.
This Pita Jungle had some blemishes... the pita bread was hard and my garlic potatos were different than other locations.
(2)Desiree W.
This place is close to our house and we love the food...BUT the service, the 6 out of 7 times we have eaten here, is beyond frusterating! I only give it 2 stars because of the POOR service. Maybe they just need to work out the kinks...but, when? Great food but go when you have all the time in the world! The service will KILL YOU! If you go to this location, ask for Colleen. She was wonderful.
(2)Steve C.
My wife and I tried Pita Jungle for the first time last night. The service was fast and very friendly. The greeters and serving staff were all friendly and accommodating. It was fairly crowded for a chilly Wednesday night, so we were expecting some good food. We ordered a hummus starter, with two pitas. I had Schawarma, and my wife had a Gyro. The pitas served with the hummus were warm and delicious. But, the hummus was just plain bland. I would also call it over pureed, but that wouldn't have mattered if it had been more tasty. I love hummus, can could eat it with a spoon, but this hummus just didn't grab either of us. My Schwarama was tasty enough, but nothing to go out of my way for. My wife and I were both surprised by her Gyro. The meat was actually salty, and didn't taste like any Gyro meat I've ever had. The Gyro itself was okay tasting, but it was the least tasty Gyro either of us have ever had. It was a pleasant evening, but the food just doesn't rate a return visit. There are too many places near Norterra to get better food. Of course, most of them don't serve alcohol, so if you want a brew with your meal, you may be more limited. We were really surprised by all the great reviews, since that definitely was not our experience. Updated November 13, 2013 After my first visit, I wrote the review, above, and left a two star rating. Despite the excellent, friendly service, my wife and I had no intention of returning due to the lackluster food. After writing the review, I was contacted by Pita Jungle management and asked to try them again. So, we did. On our second visit, we received the same exemplary service, and met Travis, the manager. Travis and the rest of the staff were awesome. We decided to try dishes from the specialty menu to see how much these guys could shine. We ordered Chicken Tikka Masala and Wood-Fired Fresh Salmon. Both were delicious. Given the great service of both visits, and the really good food of the second visit, I really wanted to give four stars. But, we couldn't escape the fact that the hummus has a acidic sour flavor, and is over pureed. I think they use vinegar instead of lemon juice and over puree to cover the consistent texture. It's not bad, but it's not even mediocre either. Then, there are the pita entrees. Delicious pita bread and fresh tasty veggies make them quite palatable. But, the gyro meat's only flavor is salt. That's just not right. Frankly, I have to admit that another location just about a hundred feet away makes better pitas and has better hummus. All the food really should be delicious for four stars. So, I'll just say they're 3.5 stars due to mostly delicious food and great service. Since there aren't any half stars, I'll just have to round up to four. So, for pitas, keep walking till you get to the other place on the left. For everything else, Pita Jungle is a great place.

I really appreciate that this place posts their nutrition information on their website. That being said, some of their "healthy" items like salads have way too many calories for food that aims at being healthier. Still, it's tasty and their iced teas are the best. Just be careful if you're watching calories. Some of the items are deceiving.
(3)Sharon T.
I am a HUGE fan of Pita Jungle. The last experience was a disappointment and was the first time my husband had been there. The staff (both coming on and leaving) were hanging around eating and drinking with aprons on. The food was just so-so. I usually LOVE their pita bread but the stuff we got seemed like it was just some dried up store bought stuff. We just stopped in for tapas and a drink and I doubt we will return to this location for a full meal any time soon. :(
(2)Heather V.
This place is hands down good every time we go! My husband and I have been going ever since this location has opened. Even though we have seen some turn around with staff, they still are able to find very friendly respective employees (which makes your dining so much better!) The food is more on the healthy side, so if you are looking for something fattening, I would not suggest this place. Happy hour is pretty good as well, and the hummus trio is amazing!
(5)Briana O.
I love Pita Jungle and I am so happy there is one near me. It is pretty packed most nights and especially weekends. It is a great place for a fresh dinner that's not fried in grease! The service is sometimes great, sometimes average. Last time our waitress showed us the wine specials, then suggested one of the only wines that wasn't on special. We didn't notice until we got our bill, it wasn't a huge price difference but felt kind of shady of her to not mention it.
(4)Brandon R.
Oh, man, this place definitely surprised me. I went in as a blank slate, imagining it to be something like Jamba Juice. No such thing though. This place is a legit, solid restaurant. Light, unassuming, flexible, and subtle is how I'd describe it. The food, service, and interior, and overall experience were all top notch and I can't imagine how they could be improved. Not too hard on the ol' wallet either. All of which adds up to 5 stars in my book. Their desserts looked stupendous and reasonably priced too. In addition to that, the atmosphere, they strike the balance between trendy, classy, and casual so well. And that's the thing I mean when I say flexible; you see families, dates, bar flies, even a kid's birthday and none of it looked out of place or imbalanced the setting in the slightest. Well done, Pita Jungle!
(5)Celeste B.
Dined here with my customers. It is an Arizona a chain and my felafel sandwich was good. The felafel and veggies were great but the pita bread was a bit boring and I did not eat it. My thighs say thank you. I like the decor and recommend trying. The sales and wraps looked marvelous. Recommend.
(3)Cristi Z.
LOVED, LOVED, LOVED this place for the food, but really do NOT like the squishy table seating. Different, fresh, healthy dining food. HUGE portions. I've been 3 times and ordered the spicy chicken wrap, and the pesto turkey lavosh wrap, and a HUGE order of the jalapeno cilantro hummus TO-GO and ate it for the next 4 days at home and it stayed fresh and tasty. The wraps are big enough to have a leftover lunch the next day (or share with someone). Dining alone not so great. I was seated at a long table with strangers bumping my elbows. It might be chic & trendy, but I prefer to have "personal space" when I'm dining. I would not even like this seating if I were dining with friends. I ended up walking out, and asked for my order To Go. Not the fault of the waitress - she was still wonderful. For the reason of the bad seating, I knocked off one star - I would knock off two, but the food is really great. The staff was fast & friendly, optional outdoor seating available (nice for AZ winter).
(4)Marian R.
Great chicken combo. I am a fan of Pita Jungle. Great healthy options from the appetizers to full entree options. Ask for a cucumber jalepano margarita, they do a pretty good job!
(4)Pamela G.
My husband and I have been to a couple of the Pita Jungles and we love it! Healthy menu especially right after a good workout! The ambience at this location is very cool. The employees were friendly and fun! I like to get the sampler platter so I can have a taste of everything! We like to go on Saturday afternoons and catch whatever game is playing on the tube. I could see how they would get crowded and loud at night! First visit, go early so you can get educated on the menu and take in the atmosphere!
(5)Steven P.
I've always loved eating at Pita Jungle on Scottsdale and Shea. As some other reviewers have already noted, this particular location doesn't have the same feel to it because of its "Trying-too-hard-to-be-modern" atmosphere. I was shocked on how loud the hyper-paced music was, and how non-intimate the seating felt. Since I like the food so much, I'll continue to patronize the Scottsdale location...even though I live so close to this Happy Valley one. Also, the staff seemed far less "mature" with their mannerism. Even the older waitresses dressed and talked like they were still in High school...very gross.
(2)Beverly S.
This place has the healthiest kids meals around and my kiddos enjoy eating it despite its healthiness. As for my husband and I, we love the humus & chicken and cheese & fruit fantasia. We also enjoy the atmosphere. It's fun to see the artwork of different featured artist displayed there. And for whatever reason we like the way the servers are allowed to wear their own style of clothing. I guess it makes it feel like a creative and yummy place to eat.
(4)Andrew J.
Awesome food, great service most times. My family and I eat here at least twice a month, sometimes more. Never had a bad meal. Black bean burger is really quite delicious, as are the pizzas. Garlic dip is fantastic.
(4)Amanda G.
This is my favorite restaurant to go to when I'm on the North side of town. The dining area is actually pretty chic and they have a bar. The food is always great, I love chicken and hummus!
(5)Crystal P.
Living in Scottsdale for years, I was used to Pita Jungle being a 'casual, run in and grab a veggie pita' type of place so I wasn't prepared for this one to be a bit more upscale. Went on a weekday, was packed. Sat at bar and ordered lunch as I was dying for a falafel wrap. WORST falafel I have ever had. It came out half burnt, dry and so bad, I didn't even eat half of the wrap. I was nice about it and they ended up comping my meal. It takes a lot for me to complain, but it was THAT bad. I wonder if they should have stuck with the causal fare, but either way, I will always like the concept and the menu, just stick to quality. It felt forced and like the kitchen was just throwing out food for the sake of.
(2)David S.
Great variety of fresh tasting meals. The Mediterranean chicken salad is my fav. The philly cheese pita and the wood fired chicken lavosh are also favorites. The tea is great too. Strawberry kiwi green tea and passion black tea. When I'm in the mood for a beer they have my favorite local craft, four peaks kiltlifter, yum!!!
(5)Bill J.
I was pretty excited when this location opened in Norterra and, to be fair, things were great when my family and I first started going to this particular location. The service was good, the food was good and it was our favorite Pita Jungle (we also patronized the Arrowhead location for some time and work near the Desert Ridge location too). Unfortunately when it comes time to write a review, I can't really say much good about Pita Jungle at Norterra anymore, and that's nothing short of a huge shame. This place had amazing potential and a great location and, despite what some say in other reviews, I actually liked the decor and the ambiance the most at this location. The sour spot for my family and I, unfortunately, has been the steady decline in the quality of both the service and the food itself, the former far more than the latter, which is unfortunate because I can stomach bad food but not bad service. Where to begin? The servers at this location seem to be stretched not too thin, but too far apart in the tables they work. My family and I have never, never been able to figure out how/why our server also works the bar and a few tables outside and then other times just disappears. This happens regardless of where we sit or what server we have, they all seem to just cavort about and work random tables, rather than having a fixed section. This is funny to me because, on occasion, I've actually been told that there are 'sections' so I wonder what kind of crazy system they have going on. To the casual observer, you'd almost think it was some sort of complete free for all, which I know it's not, but come on. This has been a consistent theme and while it was worst for the tables nearest the bar, by the entrance, it seems to have recently grown to cover the entire floorspace. No matter where my family and I were seated, we always noticed this behavior. The end result? Poor service. Drinks don't get refilled on time, nobody checks to see if the food is OK right after it comes out, you name it. It's a shame because the servers are always sprinting about from place to place, seemingly with a sense of urgency (which is otherwise desirable) but because there is no order to what they're doing, it's sort of wasted effort. You can run between a bunch of tables but if you can't keep track of which ones are yours, invariably people are left out to dry and that's precisely what happened to us, more times than I can count. Another thing that irks me is the management at this location. I don't know when it changed, or if people rotate or what, but I think that has something to do with it. I've called to complain maybe 5% of the time I go there, which isn't too bad actually since I've been dozens of times, but the kicker is that nothing ever changed as a result, and that stings even more than the initial bad service itself, at least it does for me. To pretend you don't have a problem when long time customers repeatedly call, that's just asinine. Complaints are down, I am told. I wonder if that's because people got tired of going there and have nothing to complain about since they no longer patronize your establishment. In any case, I gave this place plenty of second chances, but I have no tolerance for rude staff and zero accountability for poor performance after repeated complaints directly to management. You got more than your fair share of second chances, but you're not getting any fifth or sixth chances out of me. Never going back, even though the manager offered a free meal. There's not enough free food in the world to make me tolerate bad service and food runners who give lip to a customer that has already been wronged by shoddy service and a kitchen mistake. How low class can you get? Avoid this place unless you really want the answer to that question.
(1)Gordon D.
Excellent fresh salads and pitas. Be warned - the portions are big, if you think about getting a side and are not ravenously hungry don't!
(4)Tracie C.
My husband and I go to Pita Jungle regularly for Happy Hour. We enjoy sitting on the patio and relaxing. The hummus is yummy and we can get a couple HH apps and drinks for less than $20 when we leave. The service is always good and the food is consistent between locations.
(4)Ryan S.
I am "upping" my review to 5 stars. Been there several times now and had consistent good food and service.
(5)Brian J.
Showed up 10 minutes before 10 because their site said they close at 11. They really close at 10 but we didn't find this out until after we ordered. They staff was in a great mood about it and still made our meal enjoyable!
(4)Cori P.
Great to have a Pita Jungle at Norterra. I love their Happy Hour. Never had anything that wasn't delicious. Great vibe for families or a night with friends.
(5)Diana C.
We eat here often and love it every time. The food is delicious, affordable and healthy, however, the menu is extensive enough to please anyone. The service is welcoming, friendly and very accommodating. Any special request is met with a smile and an eagerness to please. If you ask for Bai, (Bailey), you are sure to have a totally delightful experience.
(5)Gina L.
The service was ok. The servers bumped into us several times because the tables were so close together. We had 1 person take our order, another bring our drinks and a third bring our meals. The portions were small for the price. I was disappointed in my chicken wrap. It did have big chunks of grilled chicken but had no sauce or flavor. The wrap/bread was too big and it came with no sides. My husband and mother in law both had fish over some sort of hummus. The fish was good but the hummus was lacking flavor. And again, the only side these came with were about 6 pita chips. For the price, head across the stree to The Greek Pita.

Pita Jungle is a great place to go for healthy and tasty food. Most locations you will find are absolutely packed because they are in very busy urban centers such as Desert Ridge or Scottsdale/Shea, but this location is in an new growth area and the location is still new so it's easier to get in during lunch and dinner rush. The variety of food is great. They have something for the salad lover, vegetarian, pizzas, and lots more. They have a nice covered patio area with barside service. The bar is great and it's a good place for happy hour too. I live nearby and eat here at least once a week. The food is consistent, fresh and the service is good. I do sometimes wish they would find a few new servers, but good help is hard to find. The place is clean and the food is very tasty, healthy and you should try it. Large portions too.

I ordered the Mahi Mahi and we had a mozzarella salad to share. My dining partner had Salmon. the salmon was over cooked after a careful conversation about how it should be cooked. So, why 5 stars? The manager was genuinely upset about this, paid for my partners meal, AND assured us there would be training on how to cook salmon properly. I have to say I was impressed-and believed her. This place has character, food is good (not wow but good) and service was good. Don't get it confused though with Pita Pit which is literally 2-3 stores down you'll have a very different experience.

We are big fans of Pita Jungle but this one is by FAR our favorite. The staff here is wonderful, they are all so attentive and personable. Our 4 year old picks P.J, every weekend when it is time to decide where to eat. I love that their kids menu has such great options for her. My husband and I always have a hard time deciding what to get because the menu is just fantastic. We love going during Happy Hour and taking advantage of the smaller plates. We just discussed after our last visit how impressed we were that we each had a meal, a kids meal, an appetizer, a soft drink and a happy hour drink and with tip our bill was right under $30.

I loves me some pita jungle! This new location is fast and delicious just like their other ones. Consistently good food and service.
(5)Amber R.
I love this place! Healthy food, nice/happy/friendly staff, great bar, and the food always comes out super fast. Great atmosphere. Love the ever changing artwork. New favorite hangout!
(5)Jessica W.
My favorite Pita Jungle and the least pretentious. Minus one star for food inconsistency, hopefully this issue gets ironed out with time.
(4)Scott P.
Great food with healthy choices with sincere service. This is one of our favorite lunch and dinner places.
(5)Chloe A.
Pita jungle rocks!! The service is great. The food rocks. And I don't yelp unless I am impressed. Yummy!
(5)Trevor E.
We enjoy both this Pita Jungle and the Pita Jungle near Arrowhead. They almost always have a craft beer or two that I want to try, and we are big fans of the cilantro hummus. My daughter loves the fruit plate and it always comes with a whole produce section worth of fresh fruit. (I am not sure how they predict the demand for this as it is always fresh, but all the better). I am a fan of the chicken chipotle lavash pizza, though it is enough food for two. With three of us, we leave stuffed from the hummus, the lavash pizza, and stealing fruit from our daughter's plate. Even then we take food home. I enjoy the setting of this Pita Jungle and the rotating art work is fun.

Been coming to Pita for years. In general the food is great and the service is good. I am however sick of their inability to change the really bad things. Every wrap I've ever had here has tin foil in it. They wrap them in tinfoil and then cut through them with a serrated knife that causes little bits of tin foil to be in your food. Every time I have one, I tell the staff and their response is "I know, I've told the cooks, but they just keep doing it." I'm done going to Pita, who knows what else the kitchen is doing to our food.
(1)Mike M.
We go here about once a month and always have a good meal. I love the chicken philly and the Mediterranean salad. Their ice tea is always good too. We get it to go a lot too and the food is always hot and packaged well.
(4)Ashley P.
Pita Jungle is possibly my favorite restaurant ever. Everrrrrrr. It's hard to get it wrong. The food is all just so delicious. This time I opted for the Mediterranean chicken salad. I normally go with the curry chicken salad which is my fave. My friend and I shared the cilantro jalapeño hummus. They only brought out one pita, waaah! The salad was nice and big. Green tea always good and drink cup full. Service friendly. The seating could have been better, there just wasn't enough of it and the high top sat too many people. Very kid friendly which is appreciated.
(4)Kelli N.
Pita Jungle always has great food and everyone is always smiling. Tika Massala and Jalapeño cilantro hummus is my favorite
(5)Mindy B.
I'm impressed! I came back to give this Pita Jungle location a second and third try... On both occasions the service was vastly improved! Jocelyn and Melissa were our servers and both were extremely friendly and upbeat. They did table touches, refilled drinks, and generally made it a place that I would be happy to continue visiting! Lindsey was our hostess both nights and made us feel welcomed right from the start as well as running our food as soon as it was up so we didn't wait at all! Definitely recommend giving it a try if you are in the area. The atmosphere is much better and all of the employees seemed happy to be there and not so down. Also, the staff was dressed in appropriate attire for the setting.
(5)Dani S.
No online ordering for this location which is why I take away a star. Called in my order and the hostess was extremely pleasant. I picked up my order and it was ready, food was excellent, no complaints. I would like to come back for a sit down meal as the wine selection looked good.
(4)Chris G.
Ridiculously priced rabbit food, and rude waitresses. I was very disappointed because I heard good things about this place. Went once, and have never been back after my bad experience.
(1)Greg G.
Pita never disappoints. This is the tastiest health food on the planet and the house Rita easily makes Top10 status. Service is always great. The freshness of their food is naturally enhanced by dining outside if you can.
(4)David M.
Melissa our server rocks the house. Don't miss the cilantro jalapeño hummus . Loved the broiled chicken pita - be sure to request feta and garlic sauce. Sautéed veggies were off the chain! Coming back! Who needs ham for Easter?
(5)Sean T.
You can't really go wrong eating at A Pita Jungle but this one is by far the best. The food is always on point. It is always very fresh, consistent and delicious. I've eaten at least 75% of the menu items and the are all good. The chicken in particular is always cooked just right no matter what dish I get. I could go on and on about the food, basically it all seems to be made with passion and pride. Then there is the staff. They are always happy and attentive. I always feel welcome and appreciated. I eat out a lot and this place has everything you are looking for in a restaurant. Great healthy food, great service and at an affordable price.
(5)Lorri J.
Terrible management. Condescending and down right rude. So much for customer service, management doesn't know the first thing about it. We will NEVER come back and will definitely spread the word! They've ABSOLUTELY left a bad taste in my mouth! I DO NOT RECOMMEND!
(1)Phillip G.
Ive been coming to this location for a year now. The food is always outstanding. The service is passionate. I usually get Luis as our server. He is always attentive and is a pleasure. Keep up the great work management! Phillip Gates
(5)william r.
Hummus trio w/ chicken and the chicken gyro is the bet.net ! Our hostess; Haley was cute and super quick and our server was really good too. The PJ on Roosevelt may be the best PJ in terms of ambience, but this location was winner, winner Babaganoush dinner !
(5)Amrita M.
Rocking.. Good food.. Nice ambience.. Tried wraps and salads.. Really nice.. Very spacious
(5)Megan H.
Yummy healthy food! Can't go wrong! They also have a super affordable, generous kids menu!
(4)Robin D.
I have consistently been disappointed with the service and food. They have some dishes that are consistent but for the most part I leave wishing I had chosen to eat somewhere else. Last night will be the their last chance in my book. The service was bad. The waiter did not want to wait to take our order put promised our food would be timed but with one bite of appetizer here came the food. The Jumbo grilled shrimp were neither jumbo or grilled. The light tomato sauce sent you fishing for the shrimp. My beans never arrived and my gyro could be purchased from any fast food gyro shop. Bettina, perhaps if the shrimp had been jumbo and the meal up to par I would bother to give you the servers identity. But this was an overall disappointment ...not just an inept server.
(1)Susan W.
Good was great with quick and friendly service. Really loud, too loud at lunchtime to have conversations. Will try and go at a later time.
(4)Brad W.
This is another outpost of the chain and it was pretty empty on a Friday night. I either keep ordering the wrong food or the place just isn't that good. I used the $25 gift card they gave me for my last bad experience here seven months ago. My order on this date night was one of their Lavosh Pizza's. It was the shrimp and feta concoction The crust was cracker-like, but in fairness the ingredients were fairly fresh. The waitress quickly gave us a new pita when the one we got to dip in our red pepper hummus appetizer was hard as a rock. They should cut the pita in triangles and put it in a warmer before serving. The hummus was decent, but nothing really was too memorable.
(2)Athey G.
Right from the beginning this place was on the mark. From the atmosphere, to the server, to the food, each in itself was a pleasant experience. We started off with two appetizers, the three hummus and the babaganoush. Both served with pita. All spreads were fresh and tasty. For the main coarse we all ordered the salads. The portions were massive and beautifully plated. Service attentive, friendly, and never rushed us out. Our drinks were constantly refilled and as we asked for the bill , a fresh cup of our drink to go was given. Will return and most definitely more than once.
(4)Naomi H.
I've eaten at Pita Jungles before, and I love their food. That being said, I will never visit this Pita Jungle again. My husband and I gave it three tries, and every time the service was really terrible.
(1)Roxy H.
I love Pita Jungle, it's fresh healthy food, service is always fantastic and you seriously can't beat their happy hour every day from 3-6pm! My fav item on the menu is their Wood-fired salmon salad served with mixed greens, roasted red bell peppers, tomatoes and cucumbers in a lemon vinaigrette. It's light, but filling and there is zero guilt after eating it! Their Greek Gyro is pretty phenomenal as well. It has broiled beef & lamb marinated with spices and herbs, served in a Greek pita with mixed greens, tomatoes, onions, pickles and tzatziki. If your looking for a delicious and healthy alternative then Pita Jungle is worth stopping by!
(4)Tom C.
Our first visit. We have been to the Tempe location, this location has an entirely different "look," much more upscale (which wouldn't be hard if you're comparing it to the Tempe strip mall original). We read the previous reviews including the bad ones and saw that management was responding to them so we thought we'd give it "one try." Glad we did. Bowl of pita chips to start, I liked them my wife didn't...she said they had a hint of fish to them that I could not detect. Grilled Salmon entree on wilted spinach was excellent, lentils and rice were very good, cauliflower was very good, as were the garlic mashed potatoes. One thing I really appreciate is that the food was not "over salted" which is something we're encountering too often when we eat out. I can add salt if I need it. Our waiter was Luis, he took our order and gave helpful answers to our questions but our food was actually delivered by an unnamed "expeditor" who brought stuff as soon as the kitchen put it out. Worked well for our visit. We had carrot cake and chocolate baklava for dessert, some of which joined the "boxes to go" from our lunch. BTW the portions were large on everything we ordered with the exception of the carrot cake which was small but very tasty, so we had boxed part of almost everything we were served. We had iced tea and water, no alcohol, our tab for two was $49+tip. We thought the meal was good value and while a bit high for lunch we thought it was worth it and will return. Our visit was Sunday at 11:30 am and the restaurant was not busy until we were ready to leave.
(5)Lori G.
Great salads! Happy hour has good prices for beer, wine and small plates. Nice patio that allows dogs!
(3)Amanda A.
I always come here when I don't feel like cooking and I want something healthy for my 2 year old. The past few times I've come I've gotten the black bean or salmon burger. The cilantro jalapeno hummus is amazing. I love this place!
(5)Ervin H.
Great healthy option in the Happy Valley area. There are many restaurants to choose from, and this fits the bill to meet your health conscious needs. The wifey and I love the Baba Ganoosh. However, I felt the pitas were a little chewy, but the flavor and taste of the Baba Ganoosh is quality. Therefore, the flavor outweighed the chewiness of the pita. I ordered the spicy chicken wrap, and really felt the chicken and wrap should be separate. The chicken is just too saucy and drips from the foil. I believe placing the chicken in a bowl while dipping the pita/wrap would be a better way to enjoy this entrée, because the flavor of the sriracha is a great kick to eat with a fork. Although I am just a yelper that eats! Overall, the wifey and I love the hip atmosphere. It feels young and fresh, which exemplifies the taste of the food. We will definitely be back again!
(4)Loren C.
It is nice to go to a restaurant and know that they make a big effort to put out healthy food. Pita Jungle have a large selection of Greek dishes like Gyro, pita, hummus and way more. I really enjoyed the Macro Plate with grilled Tofu, brown rice, steamed vegetables and their awesome beans. Delicious and nutritious! The young hipster staff provides great service and a few laughs as well.
(4)Laura O.
Went to the pita jungle today food was ok he'd huge gristle in my pizza a bit expensive but. Service was good .... I also had lipstick and food stuck to my glass of lemonade and didn't notice till my son and myself drank some yuck don't think we will go back.even tho they compinsated with free food
(2)Daisy K.
How can you go wrong with Pita?? I mean, are their things I don't like on the menu? Sure. The point is, more times than not I have left tummy full & happy. Service is good, place is always lively and they have great kid plates. Go! It's good.
(5)Jennifer D.
The food is great and the staff is always so nice. I love this place. It can be dinner with my kids or drinks with my friends...it works.
(5)Bad L.
We have always loved Pita Jungle. The hummus, the Gyro, the chicken and the flatbreads are always so tasty. We actually like the Pita Jungle across from Desert Ridge the best. It just seems each time we go to Noterra, the service is crappy. Drinks go unfilled, asking for an extra Pita takes forever, etc. I think both these locations are owned by the same person, so were not quite sure why service is so lacking. What saves this Pita Jungle at Noterra is there's really not many other "great" sit down options within walking distance of the theater.
(4)Brenda G.
All I can say is YUMMY!!! The food, service, and atmosphere is amazing. I could eat there everyday. I have been to a lot of Pita Jungles, but this one is the best!
(5)Jamie C.
I tried the reverse happy hour. Excellent value! Draft Bud Light and Shock Top are only $2. There are so many tapas to choose from, and at around $2 a piece, you can afford to try them all. The service was adequate and the ambiance was good.
(4)Carine N.
love the food, the service is always good too. my grandsons actually requested to go there for their 7th & 8th birthdays! Even our 18 month old grandson loves it. we'd probably go more often if it were A) closer B) less expensive
(5)Jeff A.
Delicious, great price and attentive staff. . We had seven different types of tapas... Babaganoosh, garlic dip hummus, falafel, sauté scallops-- all fantastic. I also had the kafta burger from the specials menu, delicious.
(4)Kiran P.
Consistently good service. Tasty and fresh food
(4)G C.
Large menu. Lots of vegan options. Their hummus is a must try. Wasn't a fan of a salad I had but management replaced it with something that would make me happy. We keep coming back here for the good service and healthy choices.
(4)Leah B.
Good food and atmosphere. I'm not a huge fan of Greek/Mediterranean food, but I go here with friends who are, and they love it. The hummus trio is my favorite. Outdoor bar seating is nice when the weather is good.
(4)Alyse H.
What I really like about Pita Jungle is that the veggies in the food are always so fresh. I had a salmon salad today that had cucumbers, tomatoes, red bell peppers and was topped with their delicious lemon dressing that makes the salad taste so fresh and bright. We also got a large order of the cilantro jalapeno hummus that I could sit and eat with a spoon it is so dang good. I absolutely love their fresh squeezed lemonade. They have about 6 taps for beer and all but one of them (Bud Light...ewww) looked like it was a rotating tap that changes when the keg blows. The have fantastic gyros that are actually very well priced. If you are in the mood for some medditteranean appetizers, come during happy hour.
(4)Brittany G.
This place could be so much better if they listened. Onions are extremely strong. If someone hates them and you continuously keep forgetting to leave them out of their food , that is a quick way to lose a customer. Everytime I go there and ask for no onions I still get onions! When I complain, instead of making me a new salad , they just pick the onions off leaving the taste of them behind. I think this place has a great concept going with the fresh food and I love greek but I would rather go to greek pita across the street next to Coldstone where they never mess up my order and I enjoy my food vs gagging on an onion!
(2)Megan R.
Great!! My favorite food, this one and the one by my work are both really yummy. Chicken flat bread pizza is by far my favorite. Good food and beer can't complain.
(5)Frank M.
Not really big on this type of cuisine but they have something for everyone! Hello Philly Chicken Pita. Service has always been fast and friendly on our visits, especially with my family being very picky with little substitutions on our pitas. I get mine with mozzarella and onions, skipping peppers, and they always accommodate. The chicken is out of this world. No idea what they put on it, possibly paprika, but it's incredible. Our pitas are always nice and soft as well. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!
(4)Daniel M.
My family has visited Pita Jungle at the Happy Valley location three times, and all three times the experience has been wretched. On two events, the food service was poor, the waitresses did not appear to care about what they were doing, and each time payment to escape the personal hell took forever. On the final attempt we tried ordering food for takeout; this turned out to be a failure as well. The order was lost and the staff insinuated that I either never placed the order or that it was made to a different location. When making the call however, I told them who I spoke with {Cindy} and when confronted she did not recall taking the order. Attempting to fix the order and give them one more chance, I waited for 25 minutes before throwing in the towel and calling it quits on this location. It's too bad because at other locations in Phoenix, the food is actually quite good. Three strikes your out! Will NEVER return and will not recommend to family or friends.
(2)Nicole P.
I have eaten here several times and have enjoyed it every time. This place gets pretty crowded during lunch, which is when I come, so obviously I'm not the only one who enjoys dining here. Pros: Fun atmosphere, the decor changes from time to time Service is fast, friendly and knowledgeable Great selection of fresh, healthy food for vegetarians and carnivores Reasonably priced Indoor and outdoor seating Very clean Cons: I miss the original Mediterranean Platter with the green bean salad! Tip: Definitely try the Lentil Fatoosh and ask for Sriracha sauce. I found out about this dish from my doctor, of all people.
(4)Bravo F.
Great food, great service and happy hour looks great, but management is obviously oblivious if they shut off the misters outside during September with customers still eating 40 minutes before close. They also shut the vinyl enclosures right next to our able and it dripped on us (also didn't smell good and made it hotter since it blocked the breeze).
(3)Jennifer H.
Last night was my 2nd visit back to this place and I left oh-so-happy about it! I often got this confused with Pita Pit, but the two restaurants are very different. This one you sit down and are served. Both times I went on a Friday night after a movie and it was a little crowded. There may be waiting if there are more than 2 of you, but it's not a long wait if you do. The first time our waitress was good. Last night, the waiter was okay. I'm too busy eating and enjoying the food to really let that part bother me too much. Around 6-7pm last night, it was nice to sit outside on the patio since the sun had already gone down, but if you go earlier, there is shading over the patio. The cilantro jalepeno hummus is "Ah-mazing!" Don't worry about it being too spicy, because it's just the right amount of spice that balances the cilantro flavor. The pesto pizza is delicious! We added chicken though which made it more filling! As other reviewers had said, it feels like everything is so fresh and you don't feel overwhelmed with gluttony once you are done. With the exception of the falafel, not many things are deep fried. Most foods here are grilled or baked. All of the meats and some veggies are marinated, so everything you order is full of flavor.
(4)Marcy R.
Another fantastic meal at Pita Jungle. The Chicken and hummus was delicious and my husband said his salmon was wonderful. Great service too! Highly recommend this place.
(5)Nicole M.
not impressed with service or food although it looks nice inside. went in this afternoon for a takeout and the hostess couldn't answer any of my questions. she told me to go to the bar to put in a carryout order but when i was ignored she ended up taking the order herself in kind of a rude manner. i think she was on her break but someone should be covering or if she decided to do it then be friendly about it. anyway, i have never heard of putting potatoes in the garlic sauce - totally disappointed it wasn't authentic toum and their gyros are not from a spit. the side of garlic potatoes had a weird aftertaste too and we ended up throwing about 2/3 of the food right into the garbage. huge waste. oh well...lesson learned.
(2)David G.
love all pita jungles, this is a cool franchise ! hummus with chicken is my favorite. and the salmon is great too ! way to go pita jungle
(5)Andrea S.
I almost always pick pita jungle when it's my turn to pick. However, the last visit to this location will indeed be my last. The waiters here are always very friendly so service is not the issue. The BIG BLACK HAIRS, yes plural, were my issue. I ordered the gyro which I almost always do and to my surprise when I got halfway through I had something snag in my mouth...... Talk about disgusting. I looked and noticed NO ONE was wearing a hair net. Disgusting!!! So unless sanitary practices don't matter to you I would highly suggest avoiding this place.
(1)Megan L.
Meh. Not a fan. Sister and I came here after a day of shopping at Norterra. We were famished and super excited for some pita delicious-ness. The restaurant was packed, people were waiting in random spaces so it was hard to tell who had already put their name down or now. We ended up going to the bar. Our server was super nice and knew a lot about the menu, which was good. The one thing I noticed right away, was that the servers, or employees seemed to all be half dressed. I don't have kids, but there were kids there, and it seems like this is a family enough style restaurant so that was unprofessional to me. When our food came, I had been so excited to try the falafel pita but when I saw it, I wanted to cry and my stomach started to riot. The falafel was burned and bone dry. Made me thirsty just looking at it. and holy onions. There were so many onions, no sauce. just ick. We didn't stay long after that. Most likely won't go back.
(2)Alex H.
Good, consistent food. Always friendly staff, ambience is a little plain, but all in all good place to grab a casual meal
(4)Atulya B.
To be honest, I never had any entrée's at Pita Jungle because I always end up getting the Hummus Trio with grilled chicken - ultimate combination. The grilled chicken is very tender and nicely seasoned, and the hummus is simply great - in fact you could just get the hummus with pita bread and be happy. The Hummus plate comes in three varieties - traditional, cilantro and bell-pepper - and all three are great - I personally like the cilantro. Some of my colleagues tried their other entrée's and they were not disappointed. All in all, Pita Jungle has a nice atmosphere, a decent bar and good food. Can't go wrong with this place.
(4)Arlin B.
I'm so ~ oh so glad to see Pita Jungle open at the Norterra shopping center at the I17 Hwy and Happy Valley!!! This shopping center desperately needed another great place to dine and drink with friends and family!! They have the same menu ~ serving fresh and great tasting ingredients with a Mediterranean flair. This Pita Jungle is very new but they have seemed to work out most of the kinks that come with opening a new restaurant. Their food is DELISH and they give fantastic service, despite what the angry Desiree says, lol! You can't go wrong in ordering their roasted pepper or the infamous Cilantro Jalapeno Hummus. Heck order the trio and try all three as an app! I like their Mediterranean Chicken and their Carribean salads. Both are very tasty and wont way you down afterwards for additional drinks or desert. Their pita's are also very good. I prefer their Mediterranean roasted Chicken shawarma ~ yum-fest! We also order some of their pizza's that are cooked in their wood fired oven. Go for either their glazed Chicken Lavosh pizza or their roasted Garlic and Portobello pizza, both are full of flavor. The best thing about this Pita Jungle....well besides their~ -the most awesome location (you can do dinner and a movie at Norterra) -the young and uber friendly and accommodating staff -the fresh with healthy options and delicious food is their Happy Hours from 3pm to 6pm and then again at 9pm till close!!! $2 beer and wine, $3 mix drinks and they offer a selection of $2 and $3 tapas apps!!! I hope to see you there on my next visit!
(5)Ebony K.
Hmm I swear I wrote a review for this place? Sigh.. well let's just say Pita Jungle can be a hit or miss from time to time. Sometimes the food taste great and sometimes I feel like they didn't put seasonings on anything. The portions are huge which is always a plus as I usually end up taking most of my meal home for seconds or thirds, but this particular go around, although I took my leftovers home, I ended up tossing them as the salad I had was just blah. Never fret as I will be back yet again as like I said, it can be hit or miss. But at least the service is always good!
(3)Bart S.
This location, thankfully, is less noisy than others I have been to. Food is ok, but I was disappointed in their Guajillo Shrimp "special" - a grand total of five (5) medium shrimp in a small appetizer bowl with a slice of lemon and a small amount of spicy sauce. For a not-so-bargain $7.99 ! Not a bargain and not special in any sense.
(3)Michelle A.
We finally decided to give this place another chance at the encouragement of their corporate office. I'm glad we did. We actually had the same server as last time but this time, he was 100 degrees better. Attenttive, helpful, and our Mediterranean Antipasto plate was perfect. Thank you Matt. You did great! And I'll be back again.
(4)Wesley P.
I go here every week, the staff is always friendly and the food is always great. Every option they have has not resulted in a poor food choice yet. They are accommodating for my distaste for dairy. They have limited dairy free options, but the ones they do are great, and can modify others. Really enjoy the Fulafil Pita, the Broiled Chicken Salad, and the spicy chicken wrap!
(4)Qingyang L.
My GF and I are both fans to this place. Decent restaurant with reasonable price. Service is always great! We had the Ahi-tuna with 2 kinds of hummus and wood-oven Salmon salad with grilled vegi. Both are great but I like the tuna/hummus plate better. The tuna is just cooked to right and the hummus is full of flavor. The salmon is really nice but the salad missed some grilled vegi than it used to have. Service are 5 stars!
(4)Sean S.
I like this place, went there with family. I had my favorite wood fire salmon salad. Close to harkins.
(4)Bill R.
I decided to try this place while visiting my brother in Phx. The restaurant was nearly empty, yet the service seemed to lack. I yearned for another napkin but never got one. Food wasn't bad (Greek salad and chicken cilantro/jalapeno hummus), but what bothered me the most was the bartender. He was a big-mouthed young dude who kept disparaging the customers calling in to place order or pre-order for eating at the restaurant. I could heard him bitch and moan about the "late" order, yet the restaurant wasn't even close to closing. I kept wondering how much he values his job. He seemed more interested in impressing one of the very young waitresses (dressed like a whore I might add). Where was the manager? Please get some "adults" to run this place and teach the youngsters to value having a job, and how professional conduct should rein at all times. Jeez!
(2)Paula E.
I had lunch today at the bar with a friend and found the service was the best we have ever had at any Pita Jungle in town. I believer her name was Jennifer, she was attentive and engaging with all of her customers. She could be a good trainer for all of their servers.
