My son and I happened upon this place and it was great from start to finish. This is a family owned and operated business with years of service to the community. It's a staple of authentic Lebanese-inspired traditional recipes. Food is fresh and delicious plus excellent service. Clean and welcoming atmosphere. We actually met the owner who took our order and he had great recommendations. I went with their MVP burger and my son got the Gyro pita. The burger was absolutely delicious. Juicy, the grilled onions and sauces plus the combination of toppings all came together for a super tasty burger. My son liked the pita, but wasn't a fan of the Tzatziki sauce. We shared fries that were cooked to perfection. Crispy and seasoned well. They have excellent affordable weekday specials for gyros some can be around $5! Also, deals on their shawarma which make for an inexpensive, yet high quality meal you can afford on a budget and splurge during the work week! Note- the pita sauce seems to be made with a thick greek yogurt! The most unusual consistency we've found yet and in our opinion not to flavorful. We'd skip that next time. When you see how passionate this place is, how it's been featured on Tik Tok- it's obviously one that others have found fantastic or will soon discover this hidden gem in the future which is worth the hype too!

Came in on a Sunday around 3 pm. There were two separate group dinning indoors. I was going to eat on the patio but it was too cold. So we ate inside where the person who took our order brought our food to us. They have a soda machine and utensils next to it. There is plenty of seating and I was even able to watch the Olympics on tv and 49'ers game on another. They have 7 total TVs. There are two bathrooms towards the back. Staff is really friendly and inside is clean. Can be confusing to find as there is an urgent care Nextdoor as well as another door. Will def be back as everything was fresh & tasted amazing! Thanks for the tip Steven Scharpio

BABA GHANNOUSH, TABOULEH SALAD, Steak and Chicken
Stephen F.

The food here is PERFECTION! If you like Mediterranean/Lebanese/Greek dishes....MVPita is as good as it gets. I have never had a bad dish here. The steak, kebabs, shawarma, chicken... all perfect. Myself I get at least the steak every time along with tabouleh and hummus, spicy hummus or baba ghanoush. Oh! The tzatziki and garlic sauces are amazing!!! The service is always friendly and responsive. The location is very clean and simply decorated,

Genuinely one of the best Mediterranean foods I've tried in the valley.. I can't put into words how good this food was and the staff was super friendly and helpful they set us up for success, we tried as much as our stomaches would let us and I still wanted to eat more.. I can't recommend this enough!!!

Gyro
Ana F.

Excellent service! Great deal for the price! The gyro was delicious! Lots of places to sit. My friend loves the spicy humus, I'll have to try it. I'll be back!

Mediterranean style restaurant in relaxed, non-complicated ambiance. Economic, fast yet tasty dishes that you first order and pay at the counter, and enjoy at the premises. Friendly service.

Is this a GYROS PITA or a Greek Taco?
Veronica B.

Visited here again!! Can't believe they have a great Monday through Thursday special!!! I was so happy with my pita, so large - I was Able to bring dinner home with me! What a tasty bargain! Anddddd I ate alllll my fries! With that soft feta cheese on them, how could I say no??? My food arrived HOT and Fast! I was so pleased, especially because I saved my hunger for this yumminess! With a large space towards the back of the restaurant, I think I'll have my birthday party there! They have a Kefta burger on the menu and I'm definitely going to try that next! Online orders and people walking in, this place stays busy - I also really liked the music, not too loud...just right. I was also able to catch a game here on the tv last time, it was great! Definitely recommend!

Chicken & Steak 2 item plate with falafel & hummus !! EVERY TIME we come here EVERYTHING IS DELICIOUS!!

It's always 5 stars here. MVPita is one of my favorite places to eat. Always great service; great flavor and great vibes. You can't go wrong! Also the steak is PERFECTLY cooked and I'm shocked I've never gotten it before Thanks MVPita!

I recently stopped by with friends on our way to the river. We ordered inside and sat outside on the porch to eat. Honestly, their food never disappoints. Reasonably priced, delicious options, and family owned. They're always super friendly and chill. I don't get to go often but when I'm in mesa, this is where I stop to chow down.

GYROS PITA
Hailey R.

My husband and I moved a little closer to this side of town and were excited to find a Mediterranean spot that is not too far and very tasty! Everything is fresh and delicious. The gyro meat is very good, pita is always warm and fresh, there is a good portion of salad, and the baba ghannoush is excellent as well. The inside is cute and clean and their mango lemonade is also very good. Service is always on point and friendly They have a gofundme stating that they are struggling with business and I would love to see this business thrive since the food is great!

MVP Fries with chicken

I decided to try this place since it's close to my work and I was impressed. I ordered the Greek fries with a side of chicken. It's a lot for me to finish, so I think it'll be nice to share with somebody. The food was really good. I'd love go back and try their pita sandwich!

Their app is super easy to use, and I love being able to customize everything exactly how I like it. Being able to share orders with friends/work besties is a total win, too! I also really appreciate that you can note a gluten allergy--they truly make an effort to accommodate with things like fresh gloves, which means a lot. Being gluten intolerant myself, I'm not sure what my celiac friend's take is on that, but I've never had cross contamination/a gluten reaction, even though they're not a designated GF facility. And somehow they're not only making their food to be delicious, but totally affordable, as well! I've already shared my love for goat cheese, so when they added it to the menu, I became an even bigger fan! I usually "build my own" salad , although my work besties can't stop talking about the new Arcadia salad with apples, crispy onions, dried cranberries, and candied pecans. It sounds amazing! But I was in more of a savory mood, so adding goat cheese totally hit the spot--especially paired with their Green Enchilada Chili. I'll admit, it leaned more soup than chili, but it was still so flavorful and satisfying. I'm a sucker for a classic soup and salad combo! Thanks, Salad and Go, for being such a reliable and wonderful GF-option!

When my mom…read morewanted to find a place near the rental car place my auntie from England had to drop her rental off, we decided to dine here then take her to the airport. I saw this location had some good seating to have 10 of us as a send off. The staff was incredibly friendly, and even offered extra chairs and help move tables if needed. What We Ordered: - German Potato Salad: My cousin ordered and really liked it. I'm not a fan of German potato salad, so I didn't enjoy the flavor. I'll stick to my potato salad. - Potato Salad: Pretty decent for a potato salad, but nothing standout for me. - Meatball Sub: My cousin and his son split this, and they said it was quite large. They wished it had more sauce, but still overall a decent meatball sub. - Caesar Salad + Chicken: I couldn't snap a photo before my cousin's girlfriend and his daughter tore into this. They seemed very pleased with the salad and at a glance, it looked pretty delicious. - Philly Cheesesteak: My dad said it was very good and ate the whole thing! - Roasted Veggie Wrap: My mom said it was nice, and veggies are refreshing on a hot summer day. It was wrapped well, and enjoyed the umami of the mushrooms and balsamic glaze. - Pastrami Reuben: I loved this sandwich! The pastrami was delicious, and I'm excited to have leftovers which is saying something. I'm not usually one to look forward to leftovers. - Turkey & Swiss Wrap: My auntie throughly enjoyed this, and said it was the perfect last meal in America before heading back to England. - Chef Salad: My auntie and I split this to have a bit of veg. Lovely salad with lots of ingredients that complimented each other well. - The American (Reuben-style): My cousin really enjoyed this sandwich and said it was quite large. Next time, she could easily split with me or her fiancée. - Cuban: My cousin's fiancée ordered this and said it's the best Cuban sandwich he's ever had! Quite high remarks. Honestly, I'm not sure I could pick a better place. Very friendly, quick service, and great eats. Definitely return to this location when in the area, and will recommend to family and friends.

I ordered the fried tilapia with jollof rice and plantains, and I was pleasantly surprised... actually, thoroughly impressed. From the moment the food came out, everything looked and smelled incredible. They even brought out complimentary fried bread with a tomato dipping sauce, which was such a nice touch. The tilapia was seasoned perfectly and cooked just right--crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and no fishy smell at all. You can tell it was prepared with real care. The jollof rice was flavorful, rich, and moist with a delicious tomato base, and the plantains were the perfect balance of sweet. What really stood out to me was how well-balanced everything was. The sauces paired beautifully with the fish, and every bite just worked. I was so impressed that I asked to meet the chef just to personally thank her. You can truly taste the love in the food. I'll definitely be coming back--and next time, I'm bringing family and friends!

Red snapper was an up charge, but even though I didn't try the tilapia, I think it was worth. Plantains and Jollof rice were fantastic as well. Owner was so nice, came to check in a couple times, and applauded my appetite. Will be back to try to fufu! And get that delicious snapper again!!

First things first, it was hot in the restaurant, potentially the A/C was not working as well as it should have been or something, but it was not super comfortable. The service was good, I didn't get her name, a younger woman waited on me and she was very kind and did the best she could. The food came out super slow, I ordered empanadas to start, the waitress said they burned the first order (I appreciated that didn't just serve me overdone empanadas lol) once they finally arrived they were just unfortunately bland, and just kind of lacked authenticity. When she finally brought out my main dish, she even apologized for the wait and said "I had to go yell at them". For a main entree I ordered the French dip with onion rings, another reviewer mentioned they were the best they had had. The meat was kind of tough and dry (which is odd for a French Dip, and everything just lacked flavor. Even the au jus really had no kind of salt or much flavor to it. I really hoped after seeing how everyone else rated this place that I had found that little hole in the wall spot putting out killer food that we all long for, sadly this wasn't it.
