    Fantastic fattoush salad with deliciously marinated grilled chicken and yummy tahini (chickpea paste) on the side
    A P.

    Pros: delicious Middle Eastern cuisine, very clean restaurant and bathrooms, super nice staff who provide prompt and courteous service, many choices for entrées and appetizers, and just a peaceful and yet vibrant vibe to the place This place is a must visit for anyone in the Glendale/PHX area and I've already been here 3 times this week! P.S. in case you were wondering, I did not list any cons because there are not any!

    Absolutely delicious Sunday lunch today at a new spot we tried based on my Yelp search feed algorithm! I probably would not have found this spot near me in Glendale, Arizona if it hadn't popped up, and it had excellent ratings. We are always searching for a really good Mediterranean food spot. Found it! This restaurant is located in a strip mall and has plenty of parking in a private parking lot near the front entrance. There are two rows of tables inside for customers, some seating up to six per table, and a men's and women's restroom. The restaurant is very clean and the tables are cleaned right as customers leave. There are two TVs with close caption. One was playing the football game and the other had the Transformers movie on. I was happy I was facing the Transformers movie lol. We ordered: - Bottle of Cold Coca-Cola - Bottle of Cold PureLeaf Unsweetened Tea - Hummus Appetizer - Ground Chickpea, Olive Oil, Pita Bread (A nice mild and fresh hummus) - Tabouleh Salad Appetizer - Tomato, Onion, Parsley, Olive Oil & Lemon Wedge (So good - fresh parsley, salt, and lemon - is there a better combination? They make it fresh and well here) - Skewers Combination Plate - Lamb Chop, Grilled Chicken, Steak, Kefta Shish Kebob, Rice, Salad (Hubs was so impressed with this plate. He ate everything and was very happy. I tried a bite of the Lamb Chop and it was tender and flavorful - so good) - Hummus & Chicken Shawarma Plate - Tender, marinated pieces of chicken on a bed of hummus with fresh sliced tomatoes and red onion, Kalamata olives, & wedges of pita bread. (I loved my plate. I'm so glad I ordered this. I can't have rice and this meal has no rice in it. It gives a large portion of their delicious house made hummus with a heaping portion of hot chicken on top. The fresh veggies and bread complement the dish, and give a very filling meal.) Food is brought to the table by the chef or servers. Everything is very fresh. Leave dishes on the table when you leave and they will clear them. The chef here is incredibly friendly and brought a smile to my face today. He insisted I get his photo as I was snapping a shot of the soda fountain- Ha! This spot has a very good vibe. I love the simple and pretty decor on the walls of Sumerian/Babylonia/Iraqi culture. There's a refrigerator case behind the register with cold drinks and also a beverage fountain with Coca-Cola products including Cherry Coke.

    We like it here. The food is super flavorful. The prices have gone up over time but that's true for just about everyone. It's worth the flavor. Service is usually fast. Never had any issues. The decor is nice but it's rarely busy so not much vibe. Overall we like it and keep coming back.

    Food is delicious but the pieces of meat are getting smaller and smaller. The steak pieces are almost mini marshmallow sized.

    Hummus - very delicious!
    Karen M.

    Stopped here for lunch with a friend. She ordered chicken shawarma w/baba ganoush; I ordered a side of falafel and hummus. We enjoyed our food and it was plentiful and fresh! A few misses: we had to ask for olive oil on our hummus - that seems an obvious way to garnish such beautifully-made hummus (which I couldn't stop eating). Bread was fresh and warm; we probably could have used a bit more. She was impressed with the garlic sauce and found it very authentic (which apparently means garlic, garlic, garlic!). Overall a quiet, clean, and peaceful place. Fountain drinks or some bottled teas,etc., are also available. You order and pay and if staying to eat there, they will bring your food to you. I would return and recommend you give it a try!

    Randomly stopped here and glad I did. Restaurant was as empty as I came between lunch and dinner. This gave me the opportunity to talk with the staff and get help selecting from the menu. Great service. I did take away- a combo platter and vegetarian plate both were reasonably priced. Even driving home both tastes good and looks like they will heat up well for left overs. (Large plates, there will be left overs). Location is not convenient for me personally but I look forward to trying the menu. Personally I thought the tzatziki sauce had flavor and complimented the dish

    Amazing food! This place is so good, so authentic, and full of flavor. My family always brings guests from out of town here, and I'm so glad they do. The portions are generous, the food is consistently delicious, and even the side salad was fresh and tasty. All the employees are super helpful and kind, and the place is always clean and welcoming. Definitely a favorite!

    I had never been here and the staff was super friendly. They recommended dishes and they were DELISH. Even my 8 year old loved it! 10/10 recommend and can't wait to come back!

    First off, that sign on their window that says Daily Specials is a lie. We asked about it and they…read moresaid they had none for the day we came in. So the daily special is only on weekdays which means they need to change their false advertisement. I wanted to get a 3 meat plate (that item is listed on their website but not on their actual menu). They did not have falafels which sucked. This is one of those places where you need to call in advance to make sure they have their items in stock. The best part about my meal was that it came with a lot of food; which is what I'd expect for a $28.64 meal. It came with rice, hummus, salad, and bunch of fries. Unfortunately, the best parts of the meal were the rice and gyros. The two beef options weren't that great. Although the platter constituted two separate meals for me, it just wasn't fantastic at all. Floors weren't properly cleaned either.

    I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty the food was. Lamb kabobs cooked nicely. Not chewey or…read moreovercooked. It was flavorful, but I am a bit suspicious that I got beef kabobs instead of lamb. Lamb has a distinct flavor and this did not taste like lamb. More like beef. My family thought it was beef as well. Rice and sauces were good. I recommend and would come back, but I'll need to make sure next time it's lamb before I leave. And if it is lamb, i probably won't order it again because it tasted just like beef.

    My first experience at Casa De Falafel was phenomenal. As I approached the counter, I was told by…read morethe kind and gracious gentleman my falafel experience would change after trying the one they offer... For a split second, I thought, "That's a good way to intrigue someone to buy and try..." but NO, he turns around for a mere moment with a sample and my eyes lit up, I finished my order "beef Pita," (of which was extremely flavorful, tender, and fresh... the pita had great consistency and it all disappeared in seconds) but sorry, I digress, there I was, grabbing the strawberry lemonade and walking towards the table when yet again, the kind man asked, "how is the lemonade?" To which I respond, "great!" He then proceeded to pull me an additional cup, "please, try the others as well, they're homemade!" A mango pineapple and a passion fruit were awaiting my pallet, and soon enough... they too, were gone. The falafel was absolutely incredible, crispy outside, soft and flavorful and not dry, that's the big one for me... the falafel was perfect... there was only one thing wrong, so I asked... "can I order four more!? and some baklava too" (to take home of course...) I did sneak a bite of the baklava though, again, so tasty, perfect amount of sweetness, not overly sticky, and the right size to end the meal. Casa De Falafel is one that I HIGHLY RECOMMEND... I can't wait to go back and explore more of the menu... they will definitely be the only place that I go for a falafel craving... THANK YOU!

    My husband and I decided to make the drive from the East Valley to try Pita Kitchen, and when we…read morearrived the place was packed -- usually a great sign. Unfortunately, that's where the positives ended. We ordered and were asked if we were dining in or taking our food to go. We said dining in, but there were no open tables inside (around 12 total) and zero tables available outside. We ended up waiting in the back for a table to open while staff repeatedly walked around looking for our table number, never once asking if the order might be ours. After several minutes, someone finally asked if we were number 11. We were. Once seated, the decor was cute, but service was mediocre at best. The food was the biggest disappointment. It had been a while since we last visited, and it's definitely not the same. The rice was bland and flavorless, and the gyro meat tasted like frozen, reheated product -- very dry, with the main flavor being salt. Instead of the fresh-carved gyro meat you typically see on a vertical rotisserie at most Greek restaurants, the kitchen area was closed off, so there was no visible preparation or carving station. For nearly $50, the experience simply did not match the price. Between the disorganized service and underwhelming food, we won't be back. Next time, we'll stick to supporting East Valley Greek spots that offer better quality and value. I want to preface, this place used to be good. Not sure of ownership changed, but save yourself a trip and find something better and more affordable
