Phoenix New TimesAugust 13, 2014Well-known as a cheap-date restaurant at ASU. Still, you don't have to be a starving scholar to enjoy vittles like the thick baba ghanouj, roasted chicken pita, or "dolphin-friendly" tuna melt pizza. Read more
- Justin W.August 5, 2013Great atmosphere and unique food selection make it an awesome dinner spot. Definitely one of my favorite places to go when I'm back in my Sun Devil homeland! The pitas are tasty and filling!
Jennifer HayeFebruary 16, 2013Not only is it healthy, but it's also delicious! Everything on the menu is great, even the dishes you may not think you want to try. Also, the house lemonade is my favorite! So good.
Favorites are Chicken pasta salad (always enough for leftovers for lunch) and Pesto pizza with chicken. Hard to go wrong with anything you order here.
when it's on the menu get the artichoke pasta salad. I die it's so good! the hummus is also amazing, the pitas are always fluffy & happy hour... you can seriously fill your belly for little $- Phoenix New TimesAugust 13, 2014Brown rice, lentils, tabbouleh, tofu and veggie burgers will warm the cockles of your inner Birkenstock-wearer as you get your grub on.

Christen NavarreteMarch 29, 2012This restaurant is basically the best invention in the world. I used to be so addicted I would come here at least once a week! I get the iced soy chai tea everytime, along with their hummus, yumm!
Gary SApril 14, 2011If you haven't eaten at this Tempe staple, then you're missing out. The servers are hip and the food is fresh. Check out the art on the walls; it's all done by local artists. A must-do in Tempe.
Don WhitingAugust 21, 2014I love their chicken curry salad. It's got tons of ingredients so I'll never make it at home. They have good baklava too.
Nicki EscuderoOctober 17, 2012The Mediterranean Platter has so many great things--hummus, pita, tabouli, dolmades and falafel! It's our fave, paired with their sangria.
Jesse BrownMay 1, 2011Try the Kafka Burger - Kafka burger, mixed with parsley, jalapenos, onions and pomegranate molasses, on a ciabatta bread with chipotle hummus. With garlic potatoes and a free slap in the face! Top 3 b
Alexandra MarinkovicApril 14, 2011BEST HUMMUS IN TOWN! This place has an awesome friendly staff, laid back atmosphere, and great food for reasonable prices! Anyone who has not experienced this place, needs to!!
Tempe TourismFebruary 14, 2011Holy falafel, Batman! Pita Jungle has become a Tempe favorite, dishing up some of the best Mediterranean fare this side of the Atlantic. Don’t leave without trying the hummus!
Jordan JetsonJanuary 29, 2013The Mediterranean platter is the perfect mix of all their signature items, its great for vegetarians, and there are always lots of leftovers!!
Sue NorthernAugust 6, 2015This review is actually for the one on Ray rd in ahwatukee... It's the one I Always go to.. Sorry.. I'm sure the Tempe one is good too!!
Pheenix BrownNovember 18, 2013Love this place, went here for my birthday! Try the Pesto Pizza, it's a taste like no other.
Shawna PeshlakaiAugust 21, 2013Try the chipotle chicken pizza. It's great for those spicy-pizza lovers!
- Amanda BrownApril 5, 2011Every time I've been here I've always been pleased with the food. A cool, quirky atmosphere is the perfect place for a quick lunch or dinner!
asegayMarch 28, 2012Try their chicken pasta because it is very delicious. They serve you with big cups of beverage which is another plus.
Order the red bell pepper hummus, is it the best ever! The pita's are only a $1, so get a couple!
Hummus trio is a must order appetizer. Also be sure to try the mixed berry Arnold Palmer, it's fantastic.
Charles SchultzNovember 11, 2013Chicken Curry Salad is amazing!! Also try to Seared Ahi Tuna and Hummus for appetizer.
Chuck CJune 15, 2015Pita chips with hummus, always a great option in a pinch, which I've come to learn.
Smoothie are delicious <3 ask them to add carob to the peanut butter banana smoothie:)
The jalapeno hummus is perfectly spicy without being overwhelming. Get the lemonade, too! Not too tart, not too sweet. Ask for a to-go cup on your way out.
The jalepeno cilantro hummus is a must! Simply amazing!
Terrific place for lunch! Love the Kafta Burger!!! Really really good!
Alec ThomsonOctober 1, 2010The Glazed Chicken Lavosh Pizza is to die for! Put some saracha hot sauce on top to add a little spice! So good!
Ray ValenciaSeptember 20, 2011Awesome pitas and the Jalapeno Cilantro hummus is the best thing on the menu!
Nina MillerFebruary 15, 2011Almost anything with chicken on it is amazing here. And they have the best rice pudding.
Bring a hoodie, cardigan, or whatever you crazy hipsters wear these days; it's always chilly.
Vanessa HodgesMarch 15, 2012Tried the chicken pasta salad. I don't know why, but it had a weird taste to it. Felt sick later. I would try some of their other stuff.- RaniApril 14, 2011Tried their falafel sandwich and it was dry lacking any sauce. I had to drink a lot of water to swallow it down. Pricing is ridiculously high and not one of the best Mediterranean restaurants.
$1-3 tapas, and $2-3 beer during happy hour. 3-5pm and 9pm to close every day. Great variety, great food.
