My wife and I had excellent meals and a great experience at our first-time visit. Portions were plentiful and quality was top-notch! I've found it difficult to locate places that serve lemon-rice soup, but Saba's does, and it was delicious! Service was friendly and efficient, and as Christians we were pleased to see that this is obviously a Christian-owned and Christian-run establishment. We will definitely be back! read more

Great mediterranean restaurant off of the 51 and Bell Road. The restaurant was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The pricing is fair and affordable. The staff were phenomenal, we received quick and friendly service. The food came out at a great pace and everything was hot. The food was fantastic. We got Saganaki (OPA!), it was delicious and the tableside fire lighting was a fun experience! The Saganaki comes with lemon and with pita. We also got the Spicy Feta Fries, the fries were spicy but balanced out well with the feta and ranch. We got the basket and it was more than enough for 3 people as an appetizer. I also got the Chicago style gyros and added feta. It was the best gyros I have found in Arizona, and I wanted to go back the next day to get another one! My visit to Saba's Mediterranean Kitchen was memorable and I would 100% recommend that everyone check them out!!! read more

As soon as I walked into the restaurant, there was a sweet lady that welcomed me in and took my take out order. She was nice and knows her stuff. I ordered a house gyro and she knew right away it would be done quickly. While I waited, I took some pictures and videos of the place which seems super family oriented. If I had the time, I would have dined in. They have a lot of great options on their menu that I intend on coming back to try. The energy in this place was amazing . I just truly felt welcomed and taken care of although I had only been there for maybe 5-6 minutes. Now let's get to my food. I am not gonna lie , but I think I gobbled my gyro down in like 3 minutes. It was the best gyro I've had in a long time and I basically inhaled it. It was soooo good. I was hungry but that gyro exceeded my expectations and I am happy for that. I plan on going back with my family to dine in. Great experience, great service , and great food! Definitely recommend ! read more

DELICIOUS!! The food is great, the service is amazing. This is our new date night spot for my son and I to enjoy a healthy dinner with great service. Thank you!! read more

Love the food here! Usually love the family vibe here, too. Recently when we visited they were shortstaffed and the regular family members who work here weren't around. Things were chaotic and food and drinks took forever to order and arrive. I'm hoping that was just a rough day for them because every previous visit was positive. I always order the salad with shrimp here and it is a good portion to power my day/evening. The friends I've come here with have had the shwarma and the gyros and have been pleased with both the portions and the flavors. Parking is available out front but is sometimes packed due to the shared space with neighboring Rubios and a Vietnamese restaurant. read more

Picked up food to take to hotel. Got the "build your own entrée" with chicken schwarma and gyro beef and two sides of hummus. The meat portion was very generous, but we were disappointed to have only one, dry pita for the whole meal. Flavor on meat was fantastic, but the hummus and single pita were disappointing. read more

Omg! We wish they will open a branch where we live. We will definitely come every week! We've been to this place 2x in the last 4 days, that's how much we love the food! The service is great. It's a mom and pop shop and the ambiance is comfy. The kofta and the lamb shawarma are amazing. So are baba ghanoush, tabbouleh, and the hummus. The lemon rice soup is so comforting and the Guava juice is good too! read more

I got the chicken pita during lunch and loved it! Not from around here and a friend recommended it, did not disappoint. Well priced and the option to add on a side if you would like to have one. I don't eat too much and appreciated the option to add on more if I would like to instead of just ending up with too much food. Service was very attentive even though it was a busy lunch. read more

Food looked great and the environment was nice but my boyfriend and I both got food poisoning from this place yesterday. Do not eat here.

This place is so legit some of the best Mediterranean food I've ever had. The staff is exceptional Stephanie. The manager is obviously doing something fantastic because the place one runs like a well oil machine so many places have exceptional food, but their staff always seems to fall short this place has everything. The food is amazing. The staff is amazing everybody from the front to the back. Seems like they really enjoy their job. I really appreciate all the effort. I don't live in town, but if I did, this would be my regular place to stop for dinner every week Thank you so much for the time effort and love that you put into your business. It really shows and thank you to all the exceptional staff that made my meal tonight possible read more

Still the best Mediterranean place. Their hummus is delish (I like the classic & buffalo) and the beef gyro & kofta always hits. Our service was great! read more

I hate to write a poor review but I hate even more being served mediocre food and having even worse service. Warm food was served cold. Worse eggplant I have ever had. We had to ask about the pita bread. We were told that we were only entitled to one piece per entree. We were only asking where it was. Our waiter never asked how the meal was. He brought over the bill with the comment "I don't suppose you want dessert". He should have said, "can I interest you in one of our excellent dessert?" Our whole table said they would never come back. We threw out the left overs we had to pack up ourselves after we all agreed that even Pita Jungle was better then Saba's. read more

Very tasty! The salad portions are huge even for the small size. We have only had the gyro and the gyro salad. Kids love the chicken Kebobs and the rice. This is a go to for our family. read more

A huge disappointment! Walked in and the floor was very dirty with scraps all over it. The service was unfriendly. The food was blah. They forgot to bring our cocktails until we reminded them, after our meal was served. We were overcharged by 1 drink and 1 meal on our bill. They forgot our order of pita. We gave them our credit card for our bill and had to wait about 15 minutes to get our card back because the waiter was socializing. Everything was wrong with this restaurant! Our entire table of 4 all said they would never come back! Best to try someplace else. read more

great food, super fast and always good! Get the Gyros and fries along with some Pita bread and spread for apps!

I visited during lunch and it was busy! The inside was nicely decorated and the staff was friendly as well. From the things I ordered, I really liked the falafel and hummus. I thought both were flavored well. The pita was not great and seemed store bought. It had an old taste. I'll skip it next time. The rice was also just okay. I'd definitely try some of their other food, perhaps their kofta kebabs. read more

Saba's was perfect spot for lunch today as we were looking for a healthy meal. We wanted lean meats and lots of veggies. Saba's had perfect entrees which consisted of delicious meats like beef kebabs, chicken and beef schwarma. There were choices of sides and grilled veggies were exactly what we were looking for. There were so many entrees we didn't get to try like the burgers and sandwiches but we will have to save that for next time. Service was great. Highly recommend! read more

I ordered my food over the phone for pick up. Service was quick and the restaurant was bustling. I was very excited to eat my food when I got home and was quickly disappointed. I took a few bites of the chicken and I had a feeling something was wrong, I looked at the pieces and they were pink. I didn't want to call and say something but I felt inclined to... the person who took my call was extremely nice but unfortunately said that the chicken being pink is normal due to the way that they marinate it ?!!! Idk. It would make sense if the pink chicken wasn't also shiny and gelatinous. I absolutely feel like the chicken was undercooked and it wasn't just the marinade..... read more

Parking was easy in the plaza's large private lot on a wednesday evening! read more

Really great family owned operation with fresh and authentic flavors. Really impressed and a new go to spot

Pricey for the amount of food but quality wins. I got the char broiled chicken breast, marinated in world recipe of signature spices, with a side of tzatziki. Yellow basmati rice deliciously steamed & infused with turmeric, topped with parsley & paprika. Grilled slices of onion, tomato, bell pepper & zucchini. Hummus & pita is a must! Great seat on the patio. Wasn't checked on or water refilled by original server but another, Kendall, who dropped my check, gave me to go boxes & an unexpected extra side of tzatziki, is a doll & keeper of a sweet employee. Ambiance is casual, come as you are, in this cute little spot. I'll be back! read more

The portions are generous, but never careless -- each plate is thoughtfully crafted, bursting with fresh ingredients that remind you of God's provision. There's something spiritual about sitting at a table, tasting flavors rooted in tradition, and knowing this food carries not only nourishment but also history, culture, and care. The staff themselves are part of the blessing. They don't just serve food -- they serve joy. Their attentiveness, patience, and warmth make you feel seen and valued, which is rare in today's world.

I just discovered this hidden treasure. Wished I had found it sooner. The food is out of the world. I would not go anywhere else for Mediterranean food again. Everything is from scratch and so fresh. The flavors are incredible. I got a hummus sandwich and the meat was so tender, juicy and flavorful. There were so many other things on the menu that looked delicious and I saw someone eating a Greek salad that looked INCREDIBLE. There are so many different things on their menu that I'm excited to try. Nowadays, it's so hard to get good quality food. What a find. 10 stars in my book. read more

Food: I recently ordered from a nearby Mediterranean kitchen, and I was absolutely blown away. I'm not even a huge Mediterranean food fan, but this place is fantastic. The gyro meat was seasoned to perfection--hands down the best I've ever had. The baklava is so good I could honestly just order that and be happy. They also have great fries, which is a nice bonus. If you're looking for a go-to Mediterranean spot, this is it. Service: I placed a large takeout order for four people, and the service was excellent. The staff was very attentive, making sure to ask if I needed any extra condiments or specific cutlery for the big order. Although it was a little busy, the food was ready in about 20 minutes, which was a great turnaround time. They were thoughtful and made the entire process very smooth. Ambience: While I only got takeout, I did get a sense of the restaurant's atmosphere. It felt very cozy and had the look of a long-standing, family-owned business. It was also packed with people, which is always a good sign. From what I could see, it's a smaller establishment, so it might feel a bit "stuffy" if you were to dine in. Still, the vibe seemed warm and authentic. read more

Holy Shawarma!! I haven't been here in years- what the heck have I been doing with my life? Matt was my server & was fantastic..almost as good as my chicken shawarma sandwich.

Food is excellent, the service was great! I highly recommend this place you will be pleasantly surprised!

Back to Saba's once again where the food and service are always amazing. Used my 10% off from Yelp. Did a take out order for my daughter and the server made sure to request from kitchen about ten minutes before we left so it would be warm for delivery. read more

Saba's Mediterranean Kitchen - One delicious falafel! - Middle Eastern Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

See all

We love Mediterranean food and don't have any where we live so we were excited about the good reviews for Saba's. We were pointed to a booth and brought drinks fairly quickly. Then we waited. And waited. Finally, we ordered: large hummus, a lamb entree with Jerusalem salad and fries, and an entree with falafel, chicken, gyro, grilled veggies, and rice. I also added the side Greek salad. The hummus was pretty good. Beautifully plated but not really thick and creamy. Average pita but toasted, which was nice. Kids liked the lamb, didn't touch the bland bland bland Jerusalem salad, and wished the fries were crispier. Hubby and I actively disliked the falafel. He told our daughter not to decide she doesn't like falafel based on this one because it was unlike any he had tasted. The center pieces of the chicken were rather undercooked, which was a bummer. The gyro meat was the best by far. The rice was standard, but the grilled veggies were nearly raw, except the zucchini. My Greek salad was a hit though. Very fresh and tasty. Overall, we would probably try it again if we lived in the area. We won't be making the trip though. read more
