| - I have been eating alone at Mijana for 20 years, since coming to Arizona, but ONLY with Entertainment (20 years ago, no longer buy them), Living Social, or other 50% off vouchers, which the owner is participant of many.
Most recently, I bought vouchers supposed to be used for lunch only. Says you can purchase up to 10, so I bought 8, just for myself, because I like lamb. In May, 2016, I told the waiter what I wanted to order, he went to place my order, then came back and apologized that Mijana got rid of their lunch menu and cheaper lunch prices. I asked to speak to the manager because I had called earlier that day and owner told me lunch ends at 2:30, but when I got there and ordered my lunch, same lamb shank for $14.95 (lunch price) I had 2 weeks before, I was told that there is no more lunch menu. I have to pay dinner prices. I was so disappointed and blown away because I cannot order as much for my $20 voucher. Manager said they did away with the lunch menu because the waiters "the different lunch prices was so confusing for the waiters". I told the manager "Wow you need to hire NEW waiters, waiters that GET it!". He did not agree. Also my waiter was very new, I think it was his first day. He did not even set my table, brought my pita and dip with no table settings, so I got utensils, napkin, and plate from another table and served myself.
I gave him a little less tip than I would have, cos he did not ever come and check on me, either. I saw outside where there were two men at the next table, one man used the F word, every other word, and it was really disturbing to me. I almost thought I would have to move inside, the day was so beautiful to sit outside on the patio, but that F word man also smoked. They made my meal so much less enjoyable. I was so relieved when the waiter brought their check and they left. I never came across anyone who used the F word every F***ing word, and he looked late 30's or early 40's, not some young punk.
Quality varies, one time I got horrid brown-colored rice, tasted like it was put in a take out box, then put in the sun for 3 days. It was even slimy. Server traded me for saffron rice, much better. Another time I had spoiled vegetables. Another time the kabob was burnt and dry and hard. I sent it back. I usually order the lamb shank, which does not come with any sauces, just dry. The pita is especially good here, warm and the dish of black tahini that it is served with is one of my favorite reasons for coming to Mijana. I give that 5 stars.
Mijana Mezza - awful, I sent it back. The chicken wings were all dried like jerky, could not pull meat off the bones, and nothing I bit into, tasted good enough to take another bite. It was expensive too $20, so i sent it back, and ordered my lamb shank again. The squab was pretty good, but not much meat, and sometimes it came over cooked, like the chicken wings, dried up. Many meats are over cooked here, I feel.
The belly dancing show starting at 7:30 is very short, maybe 20-30 min.
I will probably no longer go to Mijana, because the prices have increased, they no longer have the lunch menu (where dinner size plate can be had for much less $), and also the Living Social deals are no longer 50% off.
