    Falafel and cilantro jalapeno hummus
    Ian K.

    This place is located on the West side of 59th Ave just North of Bell Rd. There are other photos of the inside and menus with prices. It is fairly small, about 3 booths and some other tables. The day we went they were a little short staffed. They had the one guy taking orders and doing the cooking. Not sure if that is the way it normally is but it did slow things down. If you are taking out, you should probably order ahead before you get there. The food was really good. The gyro and the falafel (see photos) were excellent. I also tried the Philly chicken (see photo) but that was a little bland. I should have gone with the Shawarma. The gyro was definitely worth it. The cilantro jalapeño hummus was a good variation. Babaghanouj was a good serving size.

    Got takeout but definitely will be back to dine in - they have a bunch of old photos and Chicago decor on the walls and it smelt AMAZING inside. Love the vibes! The portion of the combo plates is definitely enough for two full meals which I love! Their gyro meat is so flavorful! I wish hummus came with the plate but the small side was around $3 so not bad. The hummus was relatively bland but I think you can order different flavors and we just got the traditional so I will definitely try the other flavor next time! Loved all the other sauces that were included & the rice was delicious! The two people that were working there were very pleasant when we ordered and picked up our food as well.

    This is menu item #1. For starters, the place is really clean and well kept. The customer service is phenomenal. I've had Gyros all over Glendale, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert and central Phoenix area; this is by far the best tasting place. You really do get more than you pay for. Most places are either really expensive $14-17 a gyro combo and don't give you a lot of meat. Al's is very generous with their meat portions and for only $11 you get the full combo. The toppings/dressing are on the bottom. The French fries are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Seriously you need to try it here.

    Clean, dated interior, tables worn. SALAD WITH CHICKEN had great flavor. the dressing was perfect, too many fried "pita croutons" for me. HUMMUS WITH GRILLED VEGGIES was disappointing. The vegetables were previously frozen and tasted like it. Fresh green pepper and onion, but they overcooked because the frozen stuff had to cook longer and were much larger pieces. The HUMMUS was so smooth and was well presented on the plate. Needed, lemon, garlic, and salt. The SERVICE they took and served my order. I did not see them other then that?? I won't be back. Grilled chicken was very tasty. I feel like fresh grilled vegetables would've turned the whole thing around.

While not a large dining experience, there are several different eating space options including a dog friendly patio. One of the quirks of S83 is the amount of live, and advertised, music. This can be loud after reverberating off the patio but the play list while we were there had everyone signing along and playing cornhole. Our server was also great with a lot of our requests and questions about the menu. We landed on Wagyu Social Burgers and White Cod Fish Tacos for the win. Tip: pay the $4 for an extra taco they are worth it. Also on the menu is a diverse drink menu with craft cocktails and a Brunch option with lots of breakfast staples. At the End of the Day the Happy Hour, live music / DJ, and menu offer up a great experience that makes repeat visits worth the drive to the Arrowhead area.

Parking was a bit tough with some of the construction and that also had me concerned that we wouldn't be able to be seated quick however this place has tons of seating. Inside, outside and the bar area all designed for space to sit and just visually welcoming and therefore we were seated with zero wait. Given a few menus and then some waters though the drinks looked really delicious just wasn't a good time but next time. We ordered the brussel sprouts as an appetizer and the short rib ragu pappardelle. Unfortunately they both came at the same time but small mistakes shouldn't be overblown especially when Megan our waitress was extremely attentive and awesome. Brussels were okay nothing special but that short rib was FIRE! We asked for the horseradish crème friache on the side and honestly was a great call. Not because it was to spicy which was the concern for my wife avoiding it but because the meal was perfect without it! Very excited to come back and maybe catch a few other things to taste maybe even on HappyHour at the bar.

Houdini), was almost impossible to find. It honestly felt like he had a timer set to check on us every 20 minutes. Sit down, water. Disappears. 20 minutes later, takes our order. Gone again. Food arrives, quick check-in. Then... gone. We sat there another 20 minutes just trying to pay, basically held hostage waiting for the check. At one point, we flagged down another employee, a woman with a choker and a forearm tattoo, and asked if we could pay. She said, "I'll find him." Spoiler, she didn't. Meanwhile, Houdini magically reappears to drop off dessert at the table next to us, then pulls off a tactical spin move to avoid eye contact with our table entirely. Impressive, honestly. Eventually, a new table gets seated next to us and suddenly, poof, he's back. But instead of helping us, he goes straight into a pitch about the lobster queso (which, by the way, wasn't very good). We finally had to flag down a host who literally told our waiter we just wanted to leave. After about two hours in what can only be described as mediocre restaurant purgatory, we were finally able to pay and get out. Bottom line, slow service, poor attention, and food that doesn't make up for it. Not worth it.

    I recently visited with a group of friends and unfortunately the experience was a major letdown…read more Honestly, the highlight of my visit was the large, beautiful mirror in the women's restroom. To give credit where it's due, the ambience of the restaurant was great. The live music was enjoyable and the dancing created a fun atmosphere. The women's restroom was also impressive -- clean, well stocked, and the mirror with the neon sign made for a great photo moment. Unfortunately, the service and food did not live up to the setting. Our waitress appeared overwhelmed and, at times, came across as outright rude. I understand the pressures of working in a busy restaurant, but hospitality is still the foundation of the service industry. I actually found myself going out of my way to "kill her with kindness" just to avoid receiving the same snarky tone she used with some of my friends. It worked -- she was civil with me -- but it shouldn't take that level of effort from guests. The food was where things really fell apart. The buffet setup was poorly executed. The foil buffet pans repeatedly slipped into the chafing water, which ended up soaking the food. Any experienced food service professional knows the proper way to handle this: bring the replacement pan first and swap them out simultaneously. Instead, the staff removed the empty pans and walked back to the kitchen, leaving empty slots in the buffet while guests waited. As a result, several dishes were compromised. The mac and cheese was completely runny, clearly diluted from water getting into the pan. This happened to multiple items. The fried pickles were also a miss -- not crispy, extremely salty and sour, and tasted like low-quality hamburger dill pickle chips that had been breaded and fried. No one at our table enjoyed them and several people commented that they were far too tangy. There also seemed to be serious communication issues between the kitchen and the floor staff. Buffet items were frequently empty and slow to be replaced. The "salad," if you could call it that, was essentially a bowl of lettuce with no tomatoes, cucumbers, or vegetables -- just plain greens. Toward the end of service, the restaurant even ran out of dinner plates, leaving remaining guests to use small salad plates. The only items I somewhat enjoyed were the margarita pizza flatbread and the bacon jalapeño wontons, which were decent but nothing memorable. Beyond that, my meal consisted mostly of a bowl of very uninspired lettuce. As someone who has worked in the restaurant industry, it genuinely pains me to leave such a critical review. I don't write this out of spite, but out of hope that management sees it as an opportunity to evaluate what's happening on the floor and in the kitchen. There is clearly potential here given the atmosphere and entertainment. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I don't see myself returning anytime soon.
