    Mediterranean PITA
    Elle S.

    Soooooo awesome. It was our first time here and we will most definitely be back ASAP. Service was great! Portions were large and so fresh. The place was clean and inviting. I loved the Mediterranean Pita. My boyfriend loved the baba ganoush.

    Chicken Philly
    Lee Ann W.

    First time here! That has to be one of the best chicken Philly I have had with tzatziki sauce! It came out piping hot and just as ordered, because I don't do green peppers. Small quaint restaurant, but the food is excellent! Service was spot on. Had about four customers in here at the same time. I would say definitely come in here for either lunch or dinner. They are open Monday through Sunday!

    Amazing pita sandwich!
    Sue B.

    We came here on a Friday night about 7:00pm because of the great Yelp reviews! I have to say we agree with them! We had a gyro pita and a gyro pita plate. They were the best we've ever had! We can't wait to go again. You order at the counter and they bring the food out. The prices are reasonable and the portions are large! Everyone here is so friendly! Our new "go to" place for gyro pitas.

    Falafel Pita

    Great lunch spot, the pita and falafel here are both delicious!! I love that they have a drive thru too!

    Everyone here is so friendly and the food is great I don't get by that side of town often but when I do, I have to stop here The food is so good. The price is reasonable.

    So good - yummm!  We tried their drive through tonight.  Food came just as hot and fresh as if we were sitting inside.

    Great food - full of flavor! Tried their drive through - will do it again. Prompt, friendly service with little wait. Food just as fresh and hot as though served inside.

    Do you use seed oils for the food / fries?

    Hi, we use canola oil.

    Are there any gluten free options?

    Yes there are. I recall seeing them posted on the windows at the drive thru - check their site, I'm sure they are listed.

    I see they have Greek fries however no description of what's on them; what are the fries covered with to make them Greek?

Parking: it looks to be severely limited but there is so much more parking to the east we had no problem finding a spot. Cocktails: boozy. :-) We ordered the Wake Up Call sans espresso, plus the brunch punch. I had to ask for an extra shot of cream because drinking so much bourbon & rum on an empty stomach got me a little fuzzy in the head. LOL! Never fear, the wonderful food soaked up the booze, the amount of water I downed helped, AND we walked around the area, as well as visiting the book store next door. Food: caramel roll, caprese omelet, California benedict. 100% delectable. Nothing was left on our plates. We would have licked them off if so many people weren't surrounding us, enjoying their meals. Ha ha! Staff: the ebullient gentleman welcoming us "warned" us about their fresh cinnamon rolls, saying they're large as a head, and though you could eat one alone, you may want to share. He was NOT kidding & yeah, we shared. Our server, Olivia, was so happy and chatty, she was extremely pleasant & attentive. We never felt neglected or ignored. The only hiccup to the visit was seeing some young chickee at another table suck on a vape. Luckily, that was mere minutes before we left, otherwise, we would have snitched on her. ;-)

    6/23/26 My Tuesday ladies lunch group of 5 chose this restaurant on Tues 6/16. When we chose it…read moretheir listed hours were 7am-2pm. Apparently they switched to summer hours recently & now it closes at 1pm. It's a Women owned restaurant inside an olde cute building with 4 small rooms inside for dining. The food was good & our waitress was sweet but they really should provide a carafe of water on the table &/or provide larger water glasses. One of us almost always had an empty glass. We only saw 2 young ladies working (1 server & 1 waitress). Think with small improvements this would be a solid 4 restaurant. I knocked off 1 start for accessibility issues. There was 1 lady in my party that has a walker but luckily she was able to navigate in & out of the building without any major issues. The Parking & bathrooms are a bit of a walk & may be difficult for someone with disabilities. I only saw 1 handicapped parking space. Plus all but the handicapped space in the parking lot is just sand/gravel. There's only 1 door for customers & it's located at the very front of the building (closest to Gilbert Rd). Know that the ramp to get into the building is quite short & steep. Also, the bathrooms are shared by the buildings in the complex & located in a separate building located behind the restaurant. *The ladies bathroom was clean, had a baby changer, & AC. It has a nice sized patio that runs along the front & side of the building with shade, fans, & misters. Too hot for my group on a 100+ degree day in AZ. Think I'd enjoy sitting in that outdoor space when it's cooler.

We started with large French fries served with two smallish containers ketchup and chipotle sauce. Fries good but could have a bit hotter and served with insufficient amount of sauces. 3. Hubs had Caesar salad. I'm not kidding when I tell you that half of the bowl was croutons. 2. I had the minestrone soup with sausage, no pasta. This was absolute delicious and filling. I'd come back just for a bowl @ $17. 5. Hubs and I shared the wood fired pepperoni pizza. This may have been one of the worst pizzas I've had in recent years. Floppy, scant cheese and sauce. Shriveled basil and tiny pepperonis. Even worse, the bottom was black. Just awful. 1. Our waitress and other servers were all friendly. Nice vibe, clean and gender inclusive restrooms clean and tidy. We might come back for dinner one day and try other dishes. (I'd still get the soup). Super convenient given the Hale theater's close proximity. Well def come back for coffee and dessert! ~EG Eats
