I went for Arizona Restaurant week which had a nice collection of different country-themed dishes. The flavors were great and portions not too big. The baklava was my favorite. Reasonable prices in Scottsdale. The couple running the place was very friendly and working very hard the whole evening. Would definitely go back for lunch!

We have been to this amazing secret a few times. We had the Mazza Trio followed by Cypress Salmon with broccoli. Prepared perfectly. We also ordered the Baclava and got a special key lime treat for my wife’s birthday. ABSOLUTELY the best desserts ever. Our 10 year old even gave Chef a 5.3 of 5.0.

We were in the mood for Mediterranean and happened upon this wonderful restaurant. All of the flavors were just perfect and the service was amazing. We had the cheesecake and baklava for dessert and all agreed it was the best we’ve had. Must try!

Tazo Bistro is an unexpected 5 star dining experience. This husband and wife operated bistro feels like eating at your neighbor’s place (if your neighbors are supremely talented chefs and bartenders ). The drinks were superb and refreshing (especially after a long hot yoga class next door) and made to order (skinny). The food is made fresh onsite with obvious love (like mom would do), was quickly served and delicious. The best and most authentic hummus I’ve ever had in a restaurant. The chicken rice bowl was hot, flavorful and definitely worth getting again. Check this spot out . 10/10 will return!!

What a hidden gem! With a homemade, cook from scratch kitchen, their food was not only delicious but was also beautifully plated. The salmon was cooked to perfection, and the lamb gyro fell apart in my mouth. The owners took amazing care of us and as a new AZ resident I am happy to say I will be back soon!

Complete rip off! I ordered a Traditional Greek salad that was $9, with delivery it was just over $15. What I received was about a cup of Cucumber, huge tomato slices, a ton of oil some feta cheese and a few olives with wayvto many herbs and spices. There was no onion in this so-called traditional greek salad. 1 CUP of salad DOES NOT equal $9. I could see paying $4, but definitely not $9.

This is hands down the best Mediterranean food I have ever had. I’ve been twice now in 2 weeks. Both times the have served me the best meal I have ever had, I’m not joking. These guys do not mess around and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and quantity of food that was served. I am not one to order an appetizer, an entree, and a desert. But yesterday I went and tried all three courses, and I was blown away. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would. 100/10!

Some friends told me about this new place called, Taza, I was in the area from across the Valley and wanted to check it out. I was thrilled with the menu, I went with the seared salmon which believe it or not, not many can make it right. I went with “to-go” with the hour drive back but I am sitting in a parking lot at Fry’s writing this review because I HAVE FOUND MY FAVORITE RESTAURANT!

Outstanding is the one word I would use to describe our dining experience at Taza Bistro. One of the better restaurant meals we have ever had and I would give it 10 stars if it were an option. My wife and I were visiting from SoCal for our anniversary and decided to go Mediterranean one night while we were in Phoenix. Sondra was a gracious hostess and her attention to detail throughout the meal was superb. The meal was prepared from scratch from homemade recipes and well worth the wait (Europeans will understand what I am talking about). We both had the Caesar Salad and the slow cooked Salmon done in a garlic wine sauce(photos enclosed). Whether you live in Phoenix or are just visiting, this is one restaurant that should be on your to go list.

Delicious, fresh homemade food, warm and welcoming owners in this neighborhood gem. Chicken and Mediterranean paninis were both wonderful for a very filling lunch. You can’t go wrong with any menu item. Try it and you’ll be back for more.
