Eggplant Parmesan Linguini-
Lindsey M.

I was worried about all of the reviews about service. I was introduced to Babbos in Phoenix when we came down here early January. Loved it! Decided to try this location. Was immediately seated, greeted, and provided bread. Our server was awesome, super chill, and we had a great time. I got my usual Eggplant Parm, sub marinara because I wasn't in the mood for a creamy tomato. While this location felt more like neighborhood Italian restaurant vs the Phoenix location, kind of like a mini Cheddars, I will definitely have this place on my mind the next time I'm craving Eggplant Parm.

Grace was our waitress. She was wonderful, helpful, pleasant, seemingly always available with a great smile. Hope we get her again soon yeah

Food was delicious. Good service. Very clean and quiet atmosphere. Would recommend for a quiet night out

Chicken Fettuccine
Sherry K.

We door dashed from here because I was wanting to try a new Italian restaurant. I ordered the chicken fettuccine it came with broccoli, asparagus, zucchini. For the price of $25.15 it was good but the portion was really small. All to go portions are small it may be my opinion. But I was still hungry. Good thing it came with some focaccia bread to fill me up. But we all enjoyed our meal.

Red apples vs pears

Small portion size, incorrect toppings on orders. This happened to us two times in a row. After the first time in which we did delivery and had our order messed up, we decided to give them another try hoping it was just a fluke. This time not only was the salad very small (again), it looked like a child's size side salad, for $17.00 with NO meat. It also had cubed red apples (yuck) on it vs the pears we ordered. When you request to speak to a manager, you talk to Grace, who says the salad looks small because of the container. Well how was everything good here before these last two awful orders? They had the same salad containers when the portion was of normal size. What a way to gaslight. I don't mind spending more money for quality food, but it's lacking quality and the portions have shrunk it a matter of 6 weeks. I will not be back and would not recommend it. What a disappointment.

I've visited The Uprooted Kitchen many times with my best friend. They always have new things on…read morethe menu & it's always fresh, healthy & delicious! It is a little pricey, however, it's worth the cost. As I mentioned, everything is healthy and made fresh. You can't get that without paying a bit extra Their bread is so good, the chutney is awesome, their little side salads are so tasty. I haven't tried anything here that I have not loved. They are a small husband and wife run business, which is always great to see. They are very friendly people who clearly love what they do. There's limited seating indoors, as it's inside Barnone, but you can easily find places to sit outdoors as well.

As a health food vegan, I am always on the lookout for food like this: whole foods/plant-based, including some oil-free options. Their whole menu reads like a list of my favorite food buzzwords: buckwheat, lentil cauliflower scramble, sunflower seed meat, local fermented sauerkraut, freshly milled Sonoran wheat; tempeh, sourdough, homemade seeded bread, homemade cashew milk, etc. etc. It was legitimately hard to decide what to get. I went with the baked(!) strawberry banana oat buckwheat pancakes. Super tasty, and a generous portion. I also couldn't resist an oil-free sunbutter cookie (with its wacky bluegreen tinge that was apparently from the sunflower seeds) and also loved the cold brew coffee with cashew milk.

There were five of us visiting -- three from California, one from Utah, and one local -- and it was…read moreour first time here. We were all really impressed. The food was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The service was just as good -- everyone was friendly, welcoming, and very helpful with the menu. This is exactly the kind of local, family-owned business people should get behind. Instead of going to the same big chains, give a place like this a try. You're supporting a local family that clearly takes pride in what they serve, and you're getting great food and genuinely friendly service at the same time. We just wish they would expand -- we'd love to have one back home in California! If you're in the area, put this place on your list and support local. They've definitely earned our recommendation, and we'll be back whenever we're in town.

Very Disappointing -- Not What We Expected…read more I'm honestly very disappointed with this place after seeing so many great reviews. Unfortunately, our experience was completely different. First, the service was extremely slow. We waited about 10 minutes just to place our order with no one in line and another 25 minutes for our food to arrive. We ordered a gyro pocket and a kabob plate, and unfortunately, both were very disappointing. There was hardly any gyro meat in the pocket, and the gyro itself was crunchy, dry, and lacked the texture and flavor I would expect from a good gyro. The kabob was also very bland and had a crunchy exterior that wasn't enjoyable. I'm honestly not sure why the reviews are so positive. There are many other Mediterranean restaurants that serve much better gyros from a spit and much more flavorful, tender kabobs. This was, by far, one of the worst Mediterranean meals I've had. The only thing that was somewhat enjoyable was the rolled baklava. It was good, but definitely not as amazing as some of the reviews made it sound. I've had much better baklava elsewhere. Unfortunately, we won't be returning. There are plenty of other places where we can get better food and better service.

This is a very neat little eatery in a large shopping center…read more They serve really vibrant greek food in good-sized portions. Lots to offer on their menu. We ordered two gyros & fries. All was cooked fresh to order. Our meals were hot & delicious. The service at the order counter is very friendly - lots of smiles! They have tables for eating in, takeaway boxes for eating at home. Their prices are very competitive. We've eaten here a few times already and will certainly return.

This location has been on my radar since I was waitlisted for a Yelp events here. Many fellow…read moreYelpers raved about this place, and I knew I had to try it when I was in the mood for Mediterranean and in the area (~15 miles from my house). When you enter the Gilbert Gateway Towne Center, you have to maneuver through tricky shared parking to find a space. We dined half past 6pm on Memorial Day, so thankfully parking was easier as I believe some businesses were closed for the holiday. Though parking is tight, there is no shortage of seating in this establishment. Some bench-style seating as well as chairs to accommodate whichever you prefer. What We Ordered: ~ The Great Greek Gyro (no onions) x2: My boyfriend remarked that the gyro meat tastes like it was reheated, which I also noticed it slightly tougher than a more authentic one I've had previously. Still a very solid gyro given this is a chain and fast service place with a generous portion. ~ Sides with our meals: French fries and lemon potatoes Personally, the lemon potatoes are a pass next time as very buttery and heavy. The French fries however, were fantastic! They appear to be twice fried to have an extra crunchiness. Overall, if I'm in the area and in the mood for Mediterranean, then I'd pop in to The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill. P.s. Don't forget to add your number for rewards via Toast!

A Hidden Gem You NEED to Try - Don't Let This Place Stay a Secret!…read moreI've been to Sage & Barrel Craft Eatery a few times now, and every visit leaves me wondering why this place isn't packed every single night. We stopped in on a Monday evening and had the whole vibe almost to ourselves--such a shame because this spot is seriously awesome and deserves a full house! The atmosphere is so vibey--warm, inviting, perfectly lit with that perfect mix of casual and upscale that makes you want to settle in and stay awhile. It feels special without being stuffy, great for date nights, family dinners, or just unwinding with friends over craft beers (their selection is impressive--40+ local options with plenty on tap). But the real star? The food. Everything is scratch-made with fresh, high-quality ingredients, and you can taste the care in every bite. Deeply flavorful, innovative twists on classics, generous portions, and consistently excellent. Whether you go for the Nashville hot chicken and waffles, fish & chips, burgers, or whatever catches your eye, it's all done right. No frozen junk here--just real, delicious food that keeps you coming back. Queen Creek (and the East Valley) needs more places like this. Support local, support quality, and help keep this gem thriving so it doesn't disappear. We'll definitely be back--next time on a busier night so more people can discover it! If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and go. Tell your friends. Mondays (and every night) deserve Sage & Barrel. You won't regret it.

Unfortunately, our experience at Sage & Barrel in Queen Creek was horrible, and we will not be…read morereturning. From the moment we arrived, the host was not welcoming at all. There was no smile, greeting, or sense that we were happy to be there. Our server was very nice personally, but the service was incredibly disorganized. What made it even more frustrating was that she only had two tables, and the restaurant was not busy. My husband's meal never came out, and she did not even notice that he was still waiting for it. While we were waiting for his food, she brought us a drink we had never ordered. She also filled my kids' lemonades with water. The food was just as disappointing. The salmon was extremely dry and hard, and the pasta noodles my kids ordered were hard as well. After waiting and realizing my husband's meal was never coming, we asked for the bill. At that point, our server actually asked if my husband was ready to order... even though he had already ordered and had been waiting for his meal the entire time. Our bill ended up being high, which made the experience even more frustrating because we spent that much money and left feeling like we received essentially nothing worth coming back for. We all left hungry. Mistakes happen, but this was not one small mistake. It was a series of issues with the service, drinks, food, and basic attentiveness, especially considering the restaurant was not busy. For the amount we paid, we expected a completely different experience. Unfortunately, we will not be back.
