Lavash Shawarma Wrap
Christine N.

Service was great as the server was friendly, prompt and attentive. The place was clean and lively inside. Normally, I have great food at any Pita Jungle I've been to and it had been about a year since I was last at one. However, the meat was pretty dry in my shawarma this time. The flavors were great, veggies were fresh and pits nice and soft. I just was disappointed that the chicken wasn't tender and moist like I'm used to having there. I think I'll give it another shot and go for the hummus plate instead.

Happy Hour
Frank F.

LONG BLACK HAIR in our French fries -- GROSS! Prior to that, the service was slow -- extremely slow. The food arrived cold. I'm not one to make a fuss, but I'll wait and see how the establishment handles situations like this. This meal should have unquestionably been comped -- but it wasn't. We barely received an apology. Very poor experience overall. Obviously, we won't be back

Lentil Soup
Michael F.

Service: OK Food: Decent Ambiance: Good Overall, healthy and simple. The lentil soup and Mediterranean salad were pretty decent. Update: The owner replied to me. I didn't say I was unhappy with the dish, nor was I overly ecstatic about the food either! I just thought it was decent. The rice was cauliflower turmeric rice. Anyone who eats healthy knows that any dish that's super healthy is not going to be super delicious. At least I gave my review 4 stars! But if you want me to be super honest, the lentil soup was a bit too salty! They may want to cut down on the seasoning. LOL

Chipotle Chicken Lavash Pizza

If you have a checklist of happy hour spots to try in the East Valley this is probably on your list. The happy hour menu has a great variety and select selection of tapas and drinks. The only downfall is that food happy hour only goes until 5 PM ( drinks go till 6). So you better be ready to get there early if you don't want to miss out on these deals. The sangria was a great portion size and was quite tasty. We opted for some pitas, hummus, chicken, and tried it out a couple of the happy hour pizzas as well. Portion sizes for the pizzas on happy hour were great - we had left overs - very filling . The service was a little bit slow, but we were there during a busy time on a Wednesday night and had a larger group. Overall we had a fun time and left satisfied !

Vegan Spicy Tofu Wrap. Delicious and huge!
Lori A.

Always so tasty, fresh and downright delicious. I love anything from the vegan menu. We had the California tofu Lavosh wrap, red pepper hummus, cauliflower taco and new potatoes. All were wonderful, except the cauliflower taco was a bit oily. Normally it's not like that. Love the outside patio by the fountain.

Amazing mediterranean food! Food always tastes fresh. Great food options. The vegetarian menu is awesome! One of my favorite restaurants. If I could rate this 6 stars I would!!

Mediterranean Chicken Salad

My long-time dining experience with Pita Jungle goes all the way back to my ASU college days in the 90's. I used to grab lunch at the original location on Apache Boulevard in Tempe after class all the time. It was a big hit with the students back then and still is today. Pita Jungle opened its first Valley location almost 30 years ago in 1994. Three ASU students came up with the concept and today they have locations all over Arizona. I do a lot of takeout at this location at Village Square at Dana Park in Gilbert. They have a small ordering counter off to the side that makes it easy to order and pick up your meal. I recently dined at this location with a friend and enjoyed the art work on the walls. Pita Jungle serves healthy Mediterranean food. The menu consists of healthy sandwiches, bowls and wood-fired pizzas. They accommodate all lifestyles including vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free. I'm always down for a Gyro or Chicken Shawarma with some hummus. I also love the Wood-Fired Pizzas, the Chicken Combo Platter and Tikka Masala. Definitely grab some tea with your meal. They are always refreshing and flavorful.

Po'Boy Fried Rice

Stopped in here for a quick lunch and to check out their summer menu. They brought back some fan favorites and we wanted to try a few. It's located in a strip mall back in the corner. It was easy to find. They had an outdoor patio, but it was too hot to sit outside. Inside, there was a seating at a small bar along with regular tables in the dining area. Everything coming out of the kitchen looked delicious, so many great choices, healthy choices. They also had a good selection of vegan and gluten-free. Lastly, Sunny was our server. She was wonderful. Greeted us with a smile took great care of us. Will definitely come back.

Chicken Del Sol and from the seasonal pick two menu 1/2 Works Lavash Pizza Pairing and chicken tortilla Chicken Enchilada Soup.
Jessica B.

I took my grandma to Pita Jungle for her birthday, and while the food was good, the service really missed the mark. We ordered a margarita and paradise tea to start. My grandma's margarita didn't taste right, and when she asked for it to be remade, the server mentioned they were out of triple sec. Thankfully, the second version tasted much better. She had the Chicken Del Sol, and I ordered the Pick Two from the seasonal menu with lavash pizza and chicken tortilla soup--both dishes were solid. The real issue was the wait. It took forever to be greeted and get our drinks. After waiting 45 minutes, I asked about our food, especially since others seated after us were already finishing. The server apologized but couldn't explain the delay beyond saying "it got busy." We eventually spoke to the manager, who was very apologetic and said he'd personally go to the kitchen to make our meals. He also comped the entire meal due to the long wait, which was appreciated. Great food, poor service--but the manager handled it the best he could. We come here every year for our birthdays so hopefully next time will be better!

Hummus selection with chicken
Jen T.

I recently tried out this location of Pita Jungle with a friend who came to town. It was for lunch and I was expecting a huge line but there seemed to be ample space for everyone to dine in. We were seated immediately by a lovely older lady. She met us with enthusiasm and kindness. We sat outside and ordered some dishes. The waitress helping us was a little glum but didn't fault on anything. The food came out promptly and we were checked on a few times with regular water top offs. Bathrooms were clean and was replenished. Water labeled "very hot" was indeed very hot haha glad there was a sign. Great location. Fresh food. Would recommend for lunch any day.

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.

I just recently heard about Seed Shack and decided to give them a try for dinner. I stopped by on a…read moreSaturday evening to place a takeout order. The restaurant was fairly busy with a few people waiting for their takeout. There's ample seating indoor and some outdoor. I ordered lemon sesame tofu tacos and bacon mac & cheese on one of their devices near the entrance. A staff member came up to me shortly after and asked if I wanted a sample of their lemonades. I don't remember what flavor, but it was tasty and refreshing. My order didn't take too long and I waited to enjoy them at home. The tofu tacos were phenomenal! Full of flavor and way better than I expected. The bacon mac and cheese was also fantastic. It was rich and creamy. I couldn't finish everything in one sitting as much as I wanted to, but was happy to have bacon mac and cheese leftovers for the next day!

I had this place bookmarked and was in the area one day, so I decided to grab lunch from here. I…read moreordered online for pickup and drove over. Not too busy of a shopping area so parking was easy. I walked inside and a staff member asked if I was picking up, and had my food ready to go. I didn't ask for utensils and thankfully they didn't give me any. They do have them available on the side if needed. I liked that they had free stickers so I took two. It wasn't busy when I stopped by, just one couple dining in, but they had a few bags for takeout so that seems to keep them busy. Ambiance was nice with good amount of seating. I decided to have lunch in the nearby preserve and I enjoyed my food. I ordered the chickn sandwich, buffalo style, with a side of fries. The sandwich was delicious! Loved the flavors and it was filling. I'm glad I got it Buffalo style because the spiciness was great. The fries tasted good but were soft rather than crispy, which is what I prefer. I also got a side of cheez sauce ($2) which was pricey considering the size, and it didn't taste like cheese or anything similar. I would pass on this in the future. I ordered their Brussels sprouts which came with a side of tahini sauce, but they were salty and yummy so the sauce wasn't necessary imo. Overall I love vegan food and I wish there were more restaurants that serve it. This spot is solid and I'd come back to try other menu items and support them.

There are honestly nothing but amazing things to say about Flower Child. After finally checking it…read moreout for the first time a few months ago, it instantly jumped to the top of my list for go-to spots. It's rare to find a kitchen that is completely focused on health-conscious food while delivering absolutely incredible, bold flavors, but they nail it every time. Favorite dishes: The food here completely changes the game when it comes to clean eating: The Sweet Potato Fries: A total masterpiece. They aren't even deep-fried, yet they have this perfect texture and rich flavor that fools you into thinking they are. They come served with a yummy, fresh homemade ranch dressing that pairs perfectly. It honestly blows my mind how good these are. The Mother Earth Bowl: This dish is proof that healthy food doesn't have to be boring. It makes prioritizing your veggies and clean protein completely effortless, with zero feeling of sacrifice. All the distinct flavors come together so perfectly that I fall in love with it all over again every single time I order it. The Broccoli Pesto: Such a clever and creative twist on a classic. It was so delicious that I actually figured out how to recreate it at home, and now the whole family is obsessed with it. The Elite Group Dining Experience One of the best things about this menu is how satisfying it is for a crowd. No matter what anyone in our party orders, everyone leaves completely full and satisfied. In fact, the portions are so generous that you should definitely plan on having leftovers--there is easily enough for two full meals. Plus, because the ingredients are so clean, it's the one place where I never feel an ounce of guilt about going out to eat after leaving. Inclusivity and Value: The kitchen is exceptionally accommodating, offering fantastic vegan and gluten-free options that taste like main attractions rather than afterthoughts. On top of that, the pricing is great for the quality you get, and they even offer a highly appreciated military discount. Space, Patio, & Family-Friendly: The vibe inside is beautiful--very open, bright, and airy, with fresh flowers on the tables that add a wonderful touch to the ambience. It is also incredibly kid-friendly; they thoughtfully provide crayons and coloring pages right by the drink station to keep the little ones entertained. Outside of the blazing summer months, we also absolutely love having lunch out on their cute patio. Because it's such a popular spot, though, you definitely want to have a game plan for your visit. The parking lot and tables fill up fast during peak hours. To guarantee a seamless experience, go during off-peak times. For dinner, we love heading in right around 5 PM to beat the rush, which guarantees easy parking and a great seat.

Update as of 10/11/26: I recently discovered that now,…read moreFlower Child has eliminated the Chicken Yakisoba Noodles, which was a second go-favorite. This is yet another disappointment that has now forced me to never want to dine here again. I even deleted the app, too. These two main dishes were the reason why I would go to Flower Child. I hope the owner realizes this mistake but honestly they don't care. People don't care about anything these days, they just make poor decisions while claiming it's beneficial, and for Flower Child, this looks bad on the restaurant when their most popular dishes are eliminated from the menu, while they push the bull**** excuse of periodically changing their menu. And truth be told, the other items offered on their menu are not good and not appealing whatsoever. That said, this was it for me. I came, I enjoyed the two dishes while they were available but now I bow out and leave for good.
