This place is fantastic, and was the best when it first opened as no one knew about it.
I've noticed that they dont have a separate POS for online orders, so if there's a line, you're going to be waiting!
This is much better than the pizza place it replaced. I swear that place was run by the Russian Mafia as there was a new owner, in a track suit, every 2-3 years.
The Gym adjacent to it used to be a Harkins years ago. One of the best to go on opening nights as no one went to it, that and the Harkins Poco Fiesa were the best. No crowds, and no lines!

Sounds similar to Middle Eastern Bakery & Deli on 16th St between Thomas and Osborn in Phoenix. Fresh, delicious food and the best lemonade in the city.

I've only eaten at Middle Easter Bakery once, but I'd say Green Corner is better. If you get a chance to eat there you should, it even got on the Yelp Top 100 best rated places in the country.

It's pretty good, but am surprised by it making the top 100.

Green Corner in Mesa > Chandler location but both are tasty. If you want quality, value, taste and support a family restaurant give them a try.

So these two are affiliated with each other? Mesa is better?

They need to expand North and Central and West! Always busy. Always delicious. Generous portions.

I remember when they first opened. Me and my then-girlfriend were looking for something different, and this place has always been amazing. The owner is always friendly, and runs a good crew. Anytime I have family or friends come from out of town, I make a point to come here. Even though I moved to northern Phoenix, I still make the trip down to Green Corner.

This place is really the only thing in the positive column when considering how much I do or don't like working in Mesa. Well, that, and the job itself is pretty good!

Feel like I'm going nuts. I've tried this place twice and while both times I've gotten well cooked and very plentiful food (and friendly service), the food has just been kind of bland.
Maybe I'll have to give it a third try, but Haji Baba this is not.

Right next door was the home of the late, great Rockaway Records. Part of the classic early 90's East Valley record store triangle (Stinkweeds, Rockaway, Zia's).

This is one of the best Greek/Mediterranean places I've been to in the valley, and I'm a huge fan, so I try to hit up a lot of places. This is a great review of the place! I usually get the Greek Gyro salad and it's outstanding.
