Pita’s Mediterranean Grill is a modern-style cafe that serves classic mediterranean food including falafel, kabobs, and gyro, (also known as shawarma.) About a month ago, we decided to check it out! Our dad ordered a mediterranean salad and a lamb shawarma sandwich. He thought it was appetizing and packed with flavor. We also ordered 4 chicken kabob plates which came with rice, pita bread, hummus, salad, and the chicken kabobs. The plates were shared amongst the rest of us, and we all enjoyed it. It wasn’t very flavorful and was bland, but was ok. Lastly, we ordered 2 side orders of shawarma. Shawarma, (gyro,) has always been one of our favorite Mediterranean dishes, so we loved it!
We are used to eating Mediterranean food from Daphne’s Greek Cafe, which is essentially the Americanized type of Mediterranean food, so this style of food was a little bit different for us. While we aren’t the biggest fans of this restaurant, it will probably appeal to many. Our family might not try Pita’s Mediterranean Grill again, but it is a popular restaurant that serves good food, and we recommend trying it out!
