I did not like Mediterranean food until I tried Spitz. The location being on the ASU campus is so convenient. I also love all their specials that they have throughout the week. My favorite are the Street Cart Fries and the Greek Salad! But the wings are also a runner up. The service was good as well and they were fast with the food. Just make sure you order at the counter first! I also like how the place looks with the neon signs. Great late night meal! :)
Got the done basket with everything, beef/lamb as protein. Saw this place on yelp. Was looking for something hot and fresh and healthy. They have daily specials where you can get discount or free items. Come check it out.
2nd time having The Gyro -got one with Falafel and the oher a combo Beef, Lamb & Chicken. The added fries make it even more tasty! Definitely recommend!
The food is amazing and service is very good! I stopped here yesterday around 11pm before starting my shift driving Lyft. This was the only Mediterranean food restaurant open that late. It is on the ASU campus and stays open until 1am. I wanted a chicken pita, but it wasn't on the menu, so the friendly man working there guided me to modify the gyro by changing any of the ingredients at no charge. I stood there in awe as they made the most delicious pita I've ever seen or eaten. It came with two tasty sauces. One was the traditional tzatziki sauce I believe, and the other was a zesty red tomatoey sauce. Then he added chicken shawarma, tomato, onions, banana peppers, lettuce mix and feta cheese. The result was pita heaven! Check out the photos I have attached!
The Berliner lamb Doner I ordered was very big. It had a good ratio of meat and vegetables and it more than satisfy growling stomach at 10:30pm on a Saturday night. It was about $15 after taxes though. It's in the heart of the ASU campus on Apache Blvd so parking can be challenging on the time you visit. I easily found street parking. The location is surrounded by other restaurants so it was lively on a Saturday night. My son didn't think it was the same kind of Done found in Germany but liked this version, too. I would go back again and try the gyros or bowl next time. It's a great late night option since they don't close til 1am. No picture since I hate it all in one sitting.
Spitz is a Mediterranean gem in Tempe! This place offers delicious, gourmet food. Plenty of options to choose from and something different to try.
The food here was very good, we love Mediterranean food so it was nice finding a quick spot that was open a little later. I got the medí bowl with chicken shawarma and it was a good portion size more food then I expected. And hubby got the Mediterranean wrap with the lamb and beef meat, it's a yes in our book we will be returning
Parking absolutely sucks....... Probably because it's meant for the college kids pretty good stuff on the menu. Didn't plan on getting any lunch today but the smell was just too good. We got the wrap, street cart, and it was really good. I like the twist they put on everything. The baklava was AMAZING. Staff is great. Very little seating inside but there is seating.
I've biked through here several times and stopped for lunch and this by far is one of my favorite little spots over here on the ASU campus. I'd recommend the only time to drive is on the weekend as getting here and parking is a challenge... and I don't pay for parking. The staff has always been super friendly and I like that I get to customize my meal based on my mood at the time with ease. So I kept it simple for myself and went with a Greek salad and included a double side of meat on it of lamb and beef. I also decided to do the upgrade for the combo which I thought was a bit expensive but it included a beverage as well as another side salad for me. They gave me a 2nd bowl & surprised me by making it custom and combining it all so I had the "best of both worlds". Man let me tell ya, probably one of the best Gyro salads I've had in quite a long time. In addition to the Gyro salad we also we also grabbed 2 Street Cart wraps loaded as combos with fries. If you're driving by car, you are going to have to park on the backside and enter off rural off the side like you're going to the pickleball tennis courts & wrap around. Will definitely return back again as the healthy option is great.
