Vegetarian options: Quite a few options for vegans and vegetarians. It was nice to have options and not just the typical burger/portabella mushroom ones.
Love this place! Best customer service in the valley and the food is awesome. Wish we had more places like Pita Pockets.

My friend brought me here and the food was magnificent! Had a chicken kabab pita and some baklava. Both were amazing! The owner was very friendly too.

A little off the beaten path - that is, on a side street off of Main - is this small unprepossessing eatery. But what a pleasant find! Terrific falafels, gyros, baba ganoush, hummus, kabobs, and more - all delicious and served in a friendly welcoming manner. The proprietors are Syrian and they give these popular dishes a different - but good! - twist. For desserts, they have baklava of course, but also try their Syrian harissa (yes, harissa - not the chili paste, but in Syria it's the name of a semolina and rose water-scented syrup dessert). I had their gyro plate and it was very tasty; my wife's falafel pita wrap was equally good - nice fluffy and crisp falafels and a smoky baba ganoush; and my daughter really enjoyed the chicken kabob wrap. We'll definitely be back!

I was in the area and searching for a quick lunch when I stumbled upon this gem. Had the very best Gyro I have ever eaten. Everything was fresh, flavorful and delicious. The pita was pillow soft and the ingredients were top notch. Super friendly staff. Got the spice level just right for me. Gave me Falafel and hummus to snack on while the prepared my order (which was great). They learned this was my first visit so they gave me a discount! Phenomenal find. Right downtown with plenty of street parking. Can't wait to get back! A must try.

One of my favorite places for a quick and tasty bite! Great for catering as well. The family who runs it are all wonderful people, I always leave with a smile. They also regularly feed and take care of the local houseless community. They recently added a small import grocery with Turkish and Syrian specialty goods. All around great place and delicious food!
