The 38 Best Restaurants in Phoenix | Eater Phoenix

"This Tempe restaurant and grocery has served Arizona State University and the surrounding community for decades, offering affordable Middle Eastern specialties such as tabbouleh, falafel, baba ghanoush, shawarma and kebabs, as well as gyros and other meats tucked into puffy homemade pita. Several flavors of baklava, including pistachio and Arizona pecan, are available for dessert. The no-frills interior shouldn’t be a deterrent — this place has earned its local legend status and fed Tempe students across generations. Hot tip: The shawarma’s great, but don’t leave without grabbing some groceries and sweets to go." - McConnell Quinn
