I stopped in a couple of weeks ago to get lunch with some colleagues. I had recently had the tacos on your seasonal menu at the queen creek location and was so impressed.Sadly, the tacos your resteraunt served were nothing like the queen creek location. They were not appatizing to look at, had very little meat and overall were a let down.I regret that I did not take a picture to show you how sad they looked. All food, even the food on your seasonal menu should be consistent in quality. That was not my experience.Here is a picture of the taco's done right at the queen creek location.#upyourtacogame

The visit didn't start off great, in all honesty. But to be fair, I think there was a miscommunication. I had just given blood and spent a few hours studying, so I figured I better get something healthy yet hardy for lunch, I walked in what I assume was the back end. A guy looked at me, and I said, "Hi, it's just me." To which he pointed and said, "Over there." Which I thought meant to grab one of the many open tables, but I guess what he meant was to go to the hostess booth, which I didn't know was there, so I sat down, and waited, and waited, and waited. Finally, the waitress asked if I had been helped. I told her that I had not, and she apologized and got me a menu. I quickly ordered my drink and food. I was so happy that my guava lemonade wasn't too sugary but had enough substance to be refreshing. It was needed after the weird feeling of lacking blood. Haha. If you want a great spice kick with a cooling combination. I highly recommend the Street Stir-fry with chicken and the regular hummus. The spice and delicious combination of the street stir-fry was completely mind-blowing. The chicken was cooked beautifully, and all the vegetables were perfectly proportioned, as well as the moments of ginger were great. As spicy as my dish was, it was not overwhelming, but when a slight spice would build up, the pita and hummus were the incredible touch of coolness that I needed. It felt like my taste buds took a needed swim after licking a jalapeño on a dare. I also got the kneffe cheesecake... which was... interesting. It wasn't bad.... but it's not something I'd get again. The texture was just off and not my cup of tea on the flavor either. But I refuse to waste food and, of course, ate it all. However, the opposite can definitely be said about the rice pudding... in all the right ways. Meaning, it was delicious and not too sweet but flavorful. Soft and went well with the cinnamon and strawberries. Next time I come back, because there will be a next time, I will be sure to check in at the hostess booth first.

As a dedicated Pita Jungle patron, I've frequented many of their locations. However, I must express that the one on Mill Avenue is not up to the usual standards set by Pita Jungle. There are several issues that need addressing, such as the door in the bathroom that hits people while they're washing their hands, a recurring problem that seems overlooked. Additionally, there have been instances of a lack of paper towels in the bathroom and subpar service from the waitstaff. During a weekend visit when the restaurant wasn't overly busy, my party and I selected a corner booth, our usual choice. However, we waited for over 10 minutes before flagging down a waitress. Her demeanor lacked enthusiasm, and it took her over half an hour to bring our food after taking our order. Furthermore, she neglected to check back on us to ensure everything was satisfactory. The cucumbers my son ordered were dry and tasteless, not meeting the usual freshness expected, and the grapes weren't of high quality either. When it came time to pay, the waitress dropped off the bill and disappeared, later found chatting at the bar with a coworker. I had to request her return to process our payment. Upon returning from the restroom, we discovered our table had been cleared, despite not having received our receipt or indicating we were finished. The hostess informed me that I had left my belongings behind, but I clarified that we were still waiting on our receipt and were not yet finished. Unfortunately, the manager had already left for the day, so I left my contact information for follow-up, which never occurred. When I followed up a few days later, the manager claimed they had lost my note and invited us back to rectify the situation. During the return visit, the service was marginally better, although the waitress seemed less than thrilled, especially after learning we were there for a makeup experience. Despite their attempts to make amends, our overall experience still fell short of expectations. We ended up paying for drinks and ice cream for my son, which, compared to other locations, was presented without the usual care and attention to detail.

This was a very artistic environment and all of the art around and the space being an art piece in itself with the interesting lighting fixtures. My apologies for not getting pictures of the space but it was great. The food was flavorful and a very decent portion.

Service was great. Atmosphere was great except a little warm. Food - not so much. It came out fairly cold and didn’t seem fresh at all. My kids’ mac and cheese wasn’t spectacular either. I’ve never had this type of issue at other locations.

DO NOT ORDER THIRD PARTY DELIVERY HERE! They will make you wait OVER AN HOUR to cater to those dining in first, and put any smaller orders first before yours.

The food is fantastic! I stopped in solo and hadn’t actually planned on eating but the cool vibes and Inflation Buster menu caught my eye. I picked out a cup of Lemon Basil Chicken Soup and 2 chicken tacos. The soup was very warm and hearty, and the tacos were overflowing with flavor. I liked the hummus & chicken better though. The service was slightly rocky, but ok considering it was a busy Saturday afternoon. Overall, good experience. My vegan friend raved about it too.
