I truly wish I could love this location as much as I love, love, love the one at Desert Ridge. But, I just don't :/ I took my son for lunch, it's enough to break him out of his normal go-to favorites but I thought for sure he'd be a convert.....not so much. The chicken gyro wrap was all bread and under-seasoned chicken. And it took a loooong time to get to the table. I had the garlic mushrooms, hummus with cukes, and dolmades....flavor same as usual, but also a big delay for items I'm pretty sure are pre-made each day. Granted, this visit was during the holiday shopping rush, so maybe the staff was frazzled. But, I feel the location lacks personality overall and could use some pep in the step! Not to be overlooked...HH tapas and house wines are still totally the perfect meal at any of their Phoenix locations :)
***REVISED REVIEW TO FOLLOW:
I returned to PJ Glendale last weekend with my son and we were both much happier with the speed of service, quality of food, plus the atmosphere overall. On this visit, tried the Pinot Grigio alongside the Grilled Veg Salad (I added grilled tofu - great addition!)....it was a tasty combination overall with an abundance of garden favorites. My son ordered the Chipotle Chicken Flatbread Pizza...he enjoyed it and was surprised at how much meat was on it...the only downfall was the level of spice, too much for he & I both, but that's always a personal choice and the name alone told us to expect some heat. His soda was refilled twice as needed and by a server who had a great disposition despite a busy Saturday evening crowd.
Thank you, Pita Jungle, for restoring my love of The Med!
