Where else can one find both an allergen chart and a nutritionist’s bio on the menu, for those who are so health conscious they have to know what’s in everything they eat? We love Pita Jungle for this, and for a whole lot more: its eclectic blend of fresh ingredients; creative way with wraps and […]

There’s something magical about the atmosphere at Prado, the Andalusian-inspired fine-dining spot at Paradise Valley’s brand-new InterContinental Montelucia. But for now, the hit-and-miss cooking and subpar service aren’t special-occasion good. Stick to cocktails in the lounge to soak up the ambiance.
Formerly known as Princess Market, this staple on the border of Mesa and Tempe has a new name but the same great food. Now called Princess Pita, this destination for Middle Eastern food is part grocery store, part dessert shop and part restaurant. As a whole, it makes for a fun trip. Enjoy a meal, […]
We can thank the Ansari family for this Afghan restaurant, located in a shopping complex just south of the US 60 on Higley Road. The restaurant offers a menu of Afghan cuisine including a version of qabili palau, often considered Afghanistan’s national dish. More importantly though for Gilbert-ites: they deliver.

Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou, Romeo? In Gilbert, to be exact. And, therefore, so are many local foodies, who flock to Romeo’s for a taste of Mediterranean cuisine that can’t be found elsewhere in the Valley. One could make an entire meal of just the delicious and unusual appetizers, like the Baked Bleu Tomatoes (layers […]
This easygoing wine bar, about two miles away from Mill Avenue, is a comfortable place to escape Tempe’s more chaotic main drag. But although its selection of over fifty kinds of Old and New World wines, as well as craft brews and cocktails, satisfies, its offerings in the way of familiar American and Mediterranean-inspired eats […]
Claudio Urciuoli’s ethos is simple: “I don’t believe in expensive food,” he told our dining critic. As the name of the Epicenter at Agritopia restaurant implies, Urciuoli and business partner Akshat Sethi are focused on sourcing the very best ingredients while still offering a reasonably priced evening out. The kitchen lets the ingredients shine and […]
To enjoy some delicious and authentic Mediterranean food, you don’t have to hop on a plane and fly halfway around the world. Get in your car and drive to Chandler, where you’ll find Spices Mediterranean Kitchen on Ray Road. Owner Etgar Wagner is a former pro soccer player from Israel, and he’s brought his favorite […]
One of the Valley’s premier restaurants, set in one of the Valley’s prettiest resorts. The chef celebrates the flavorful bounty of baby vegetables, lighter meat dishes, and abundant fish from the Pacific Northwest. Mussels in a thyme-tinged Chardonnay broth, spit-roasted chicken paired with Swiss chard and chive whipped potatoes, and John Dory with baby beets, […]
The team behind the old Taylor’s Cafe has purchased Daily Bistro and transformed the space into a bright space around the corner from that other restaurant specializing in healthy eats. This time around, however, Taylor’s Place is serving dinner in addition to breakfast, lunch, and brunch with a menu that focuses on Persian and Lebanese […]
