TOTALLY surprised when I arrived that no one else was there...nice ambience, great service, and the food was maybe the best Persian food I have had in years. My friend and I both got the Chicken Kabob entree and the chix was absolutely amazing - moist, juicy, tender and the rice and salad were also great. Have no idea why on a Thurs nite no one was there but will absolutely bring the family here and HIGHLY recommend.

This place is really good really nice and clean the food is great I don't mind paying the extra bucks they raised up on their menu but please don't give less on the servings another thing is they took out the hummus out of their plates now you have to pay extra if you want a serving come on raise up your prices but don't give less food!

This review is late but since my wife and I have originally eaten here we have dined here at least 3 more times. In the past we tried the place when it was Evan Steakhouse and feel like this rebrand is perfect. We had been considering going here for months and finally gave it a try in March. We are now addicted. We were waited on by Shehed and she was nice and attentive. The first time we ate here I had the Falafel bowl, and my wife had the Chicken Shawarma bowl with brown rice. The quality of the ingredients and the portion size is a real value. There are other Mediterranean restaurants in the area and Pita Bar + Grill checks all of the boxes and is a gem. The food is delicious, and the location has indoor and outdoor seating. They also have a small parking lot. This review is written from our first experience but since then I've personally had every bowl except the gyro. It's all seasoned so well and as I write this, I'm looking forward to trying some other things on the menu. I recommend this place to anyone that is reading this, and it has definitely become a gem for my wife and me. You have to try the loaded fries.

Excellent find. Not easy to locate even with address if one is driving. Free parking should be on their website. Difficult to find street parking. Excellent food presentation and preparation

The bartender and the drinks were excellent. The food was ok. 4 pieces of chicken wing on happy hour $9… they were pretty small and just ok . Ordered the shrimp taco which was a nice size but the sauce tasted like mayo… the interior is ok like a bar with tables in a corridor.

My honest review on Pita is that the food is somewhat bland and overpriced, and the sports bar ambience does not go well with the Mediterranean menu.My recommendations for ownership would to revamp the menu with some unique dishes that are more flavorful and make the trip worth it. They should also consider adding more creative cocktails with better presentation to spice things up. The lights could be dimmed in the evening, and the music selection could be improved to create a better ambience worthy of the prices. The TVs are also distracting and add to the sports bar vibe so I would get rid of those too.Overall, I think this place has potential. I really want it to succeed, but I think they need to make some changes to really get return customers. I would totally return to try it again and leave a new review if management makes some changes.

This place has a basic, mid looking menu but the food actually tasted great. We dined in Saturday night with two dogs on the covered patio. The chicken shawarma bowl was a hefty portion and tasted great. Easy free parking in the garage next door but the place was completely dead on a Saturday night! Not a good sign, but we were able to get food and good service.

They were able to host my large group of 10 last minute, the food was healthy, fresh, and delicious, the cocktails were great, and the DJ and owner was a special surprise who kept my group dancing through dinner!

Ordered the mixed combo with a side of lentil soup and baba for a couple of hangry truck driving types (co-pilot in photo) and this truly did not disappoint! I am somewhat of a middle-eastern food snob as I have been eating and making it for over 50 of my 60 years and this is so very good I would be proud to say I had made it myself. A lot of “middle-eastern” places serve food that is more “inspired by” then the actual thing, and after you add in a bored line cook the recipes become very blah.Not so here, all the items are spiced subtly but correctly, even the saffron rice which almost always tastes like rice with yellow food coloring at most places.The spicing on everything was done to perfection- subtle but prominent and easily distinguished from each other.Rare that I give a five star, especially when I order it from a delivery service but these people have hit it out of the park. Well done, Habibi!

Hidden Gem! It’s my friends and I’s go to for a night out. We usually get the mixed appetizer plate with drinks or a few different entrees so we can try different plates since there are too many yummy options to choose from. Parking is very convenient and food prices are fitting (around $20-$30). Servers are nice and the service is quick. I’m already planning the next brunch.
