Having been to several of the Pita Jungles around the valley (corporate and franchised locations) it looks like the owners have refined their formula for future growth. While this location lacks some of the funkiness of other, more intimate Jungle spots, it seems this version will be the template for large-scale Jungle world domination. The space has ample seating, a good sized bar area and a large patio for Phoenix-style al fresco dining (which,unfortunately, typically means a lovely view of the parking lot). \n\nWhat sets this location apart, however, is Sam! If you have the chance, ask for this dude to take care of you. Sam is perhaps the most accommodating server we've had anywhere in some time. He even handled my mom (the prototypical high maintenance, special order customer) with aplomb and grace. He was on the spot and his attitude and knowledge of the menu were exeptional. In all honesty, we may have enjoyed his service as much as the meal, which was the consistently fresh and tasty Jungle fare. \n\nWe have only one recommendation for improvement: please. please, please stop serving gyro meat of the stamped and pre-sliced variety. Good gyros mean meat shaved off the spit (like those found at Haji-Baba in Tempe). Aside from this soap box admonition, score another win for PJ in Ahwatukee.
