“Family-owned Pita Pita franchise in Gateway that is well-rounded the delicious Pita Pita food you're counting on. I always get the chicken shawarma bowl with fatoosh salad - so good! Nice portions too - my wife gets the mixed chicken plate and that lasts her a couple of meals. We're starting to become regulars!”
“I came here with my mom and a friend, and we ordered the lunch combo and the chicken combo. The portions were generous, and considering the location, it was a great value. We really enjoyed how fresh the meat was, and the staff were friendly, attentive, and helpful throughout our visit. Another big plus is the convenient location. It’s very close to the main hospitals, and they even offer free parking, which is a huge bonus. We’ll definitely be coming back for more!”
“After tasting the lentil soup and falafel bowl, I audibly said out loud: ‘Fabulous.’ Really. This is the first time after tasting food at a ‘new restaurant,’ that I was Blown Away. I didn’t know if the lentil soup would truly be ‘good,’ because I was solely getting it to add extra fiber and nutrition to my meal. But with my first bite… I couldn’t believe it. I didn’t know lentil soup could be that good. It is good. And I mean really good. I’ll be ordering it again the next time I go. Then, there’s the falafel bowl. Not only were the falafels quite large in size, but they were crispy-crunchy on the outside and soft and moist on the inside. Perfect texture and the taste is out of this world. I’ve only had Whole Foods and frozen falafel before, and this made me realize what ‘real falafel’ is supposed to be: a dream. I’d never had middle eastern lemony rice, Arabian salad and hummus before as a combination, but with the falafel (and side pita bread) it was divine. Seriously. I couldn’t believe it. I only started trying Mediterranean food when I was vegan for 15 months (now non-dairy vegetarian), and I will say Mediterranean food has been the best ‘gift’ of the dietary transition. I loathe that I would have never given things like ‘falafel’ and ‘lentil soup’ a chance in my carnivore days, but now… I see that I was missing out. Mediterranean food is a blessing because it’s nutritious, bright, and when made/seasoned well (like this restaurant does) becomes not just food but an Experience. I loved my meal here. The best meal I’ve had in a long time. Thank you <3”
“Loved the place very clean Free water Great food chicken shawarma is fire”
“Es un lugar tranquilo, limpio y muy agradable. Y la comida uffff DELICIOSA. Buena proteína, ensalada y las recetas 1A. Lo recomiendo. Meat and veggie es este plato.”
“Absolutely delicious! The food had such a rich, authentic Mediterranean flavor — very fresh and perfectly seasoned. It’s not like the typical fast food, it really tastes homemade and traditional. I’ll definitely be coming back!”
“Pita Pita is good fast food Mediterranean option in a fast food court. I got the beef Schwarma bowl and my wife got a chicken Schwarma wrap. Good portions and decent prices. There is in-store seating but the place was steamy and not very appealing.”
“The chicken sandwich was really nice, we got it with the meal combo & the fries were crazyyy good!! (do not miss out on the fries im telling u) The beef shwarma platter wasn’t that great, the meat had a weird smell & I didn’t love the rice either - not my taste. The interior is pretty, lots of seats & free drink top ups. They also have a self order tablet which was very convenient.”
“I come here every day for lunch. I am UPS Man And a medical district. The Chicken Tawook is amazing. And you can’t beat the price.”
“Came and store manager was very knowledgeable and helpful! Made my husband and I feel very comfortable.”
