Pita Grill is clean, decently priced and not too bad health wise. I had the lamb shawarma with tzatziki sauce and it was very tasty. The lamb was on the chewy side but the overall taste was good. The service seemed to be hit or miss based on the person, but I guess overall I’d say the staff is nice as a whole.

I ordered lamb but it tasted like pulled pork.

Picked up santa fe rice bowl through MealPass. I want all my MealPass meals to be like this. The bowl comes in a good portion size and is nutrient-dense: brown rice, black bean, corn, grilled chicken and arugula. Also includes a side of white pita. Not even that tasty since the chicken was overcooked and dry and the only seasoning was a heavy dose of black pepper, some cheddar, and a half ounce container of «santa fe dressing» — basically chipotle mayo. But still better than 70% of the options on MealPass right now. Place was completely empty when I walked in at noon on a Wednesday, but strangely has white tablecloth everywhere even though everybody knows this is a cheap fast casual lunch spot.

What?! I love this place! I go almost everyday. Granted, I always either get a chicken pita or Greek salad with chicken, but both are always great! Shocked to hear that people have commented about the chicken. The chicken I’ve had is always perfect(juicy and very well seasoned). Maybe they have changed it? My only advice for this place would be to stick to what customers think when they hear«pita grill.» I think they are experimenting with Mexican and American cuisines on top of the Mediterranean. Although some restaurants can do this successfully, most can’t. Stick to one cuisine and do it really really well first(for example, some dishes could use a bit more seasoning) and then customers will usually always be satisfied. My advice anyways :/

I used to love to order from this restaurant. No more. They now do everything on the cheap. The portions have been cut drastically. If you order a salad that’s supposed to have feta cheese in it, you have to dig and all you’ll find is one little crumble. They run out of salad dressing and send you whatever’s on hand. My favorite dish was was the fattoush salad. It used to be fairly authentic. Now it’s a handful of romaine, cucumber and tomato with some soggy pita pieces thrown in. The lamb is fatty and stringy. The dips taste days old. The manager is a nice man and it appears he’s dealing with the spillover from the recently closed 7th Avenue location. But that’s really no consolation when you’re looking at this food after a hard days work. Stay away. Your stomach will thank me.

Worst Gyro I’ve had yet. This place is terrible. Decided to go for it despite the reviews, don’t. Delivery was surprisingly quick, maybe bc i live closer. Lamb tasted like dog food, no spices, so chewy like it had been sitting in dirty water for days. Stale pita, terrible tasting tahini– one came on sandwich, ordered an extra side, both had a sourish taste. Will never go back, waste of 10 bucks.

Love this place! I often pop down for lunch and get the $ 5 combo which is a ridiculously tasty falafel pita with hummus and a can of drink! It’s great value for money and consistently good!

I have eaten here before and I usually get the brown bag lunch special, but today I decided to order the fish burger(since they have a large display touting their healthy burgers), and per the sign they say, «add french fries to your order» only $ 2.00 more — First of all, the sign for the fish burger states it is $ 7, they charged me $ 7.50 and I added the fried to my order, they must have given me about 12 skinny fries, for $ 2.00? I will never eat again, if I had the order in instead of taking it back to work, I would have definitely cancelled my order and asked for my money back

The food is actually quite good if they can manage to get your order correct but when you order for delivery they make a mistake EVERYSINGLETIME. Literally every time I order something is wrong or missing from the order and they are terrible at trying to correct anything. Just too bad, so sad. Who are you to substitute items without contacting the customer? You ask me for my phone number, why? What is the point? I should have learned not to order from here by now but I guess I am a glutton for punishment. And as I hold to try and resolve the issue, I get hung up on. SODONE with Pita Grill. For good this time! My money was refunded by Seamless but I’m still without any lunch today.

Ok so as I walked down third avenue and saw Pita Grill in the distance, I worked up an expectation of middle eastern food. That being said, the shawarma chicken didn’t measure up and tasted more like curry chicken. I ordered a salad with chicken and it was topped with goat cheese and pita bread along with sautéed onions(the pita with onions was delicious). The salad was mixed greens-nothing too special and for $ 15 I expected a lot more than what I got. Portion was small and not that exciting. Wouldn’t go out of my way to come back here.

Worst burger and fries ever! Slow service. Plus the eat-in service is very slow, I saw 3 delivery guys running out and waited almost 30 mins to get my insipid burger and surprisingly small portion of fries.

Before I go to a food establishment I normally ALWAYS look at their Unilocal listing before making a decision. Clearly I didn’t this time. I’m new to the neighborhood and after I left the gym the other night I needed a quick bite for dinner. It was late and just wanted to grab something on the walk home. Walking down 3rd ave I passed Pita Grill and decided to try it without looking at their rating. I ordered the Chicken Shawarma pita. Pretty standard for Mediterranean cuisine. I took out my order so when I got home I first noticed the sandwich was very tiny. Then I had the first bite. The chicken was so disgusting and dry I could barely swallow it. It tasted like the chicken had been sitting out all day and they just reheated it. The reason for the 2 star rating is because the sandwich came with a garlic sauce that was actually great! Too bad I had nothing to eat the sauce with because I ended up throwing out the entire sandwich and having nothing to eat for dinner. Lesson learned that I will never choose a restaurant again without checking out their Unilocal listing. I’m disappointed because this could’ve been a great place to grab a quick bite near my apartment.

Worst chicken pita I’ve ever eaten. Seriously, how is this place in business. Taste like chipped up hot dog that was spiced by someone without a clue. Save your money and go elsewhere.

Food was blah was expecting so much more not to mention this store was hot as hell no AC and they took about 20mins to complete my order. Not the place you want to go if you are in a hurry. Highly doubt I will return or be a frequent customer.

Salads are good. But I ordered delivery and the food never came. I called the restaurant and tried to cancel, but they kept putting me on hold or telling me that it was on its way. It wasn’t. I had to cancel through seamless. I’ve been a loyal customer to Pita Grill, again because their salads are good, but I would have ordered elsewhere if it had said 3+ hours for delivery. I ordered from Sahara’s after all that — better Greek food than Pita Grill.

THEABSOLUTEWORST place to order from. Don’t be fooled by their 15 – 30 minutes estimate. ITWILL take one hour or more EVERYSINGLETIME and the operator will tell u 5MOREMINUTES every single time. Today is the third time I ordered in 6 months and surely the last time. It takes them an hour to 2 hours to deliver while they say 15 – 20 minutes.

Came here and ordered a chef’s burger for takeout. Waited about 15 minutes to receive my order even though I was told it would take 5 – 10 mins. Thought the waiting time was too long since I was the only one in the restaurant and from what I could see, they did not have a lot of deliveries. The space is nice. You can dine in the restaurant. It’s very bright and clean. When I saw my food I was a little disappointed because the burger looked really small and sloppy. I also did not see or taste the corned beef hash which should’ve been on it. The burger was pretty good though which is why I give this place 3 stars. They cooked it medium(they didn’t asked how I wanted it cooked) and it was juicy. Although I did enjoy it, I don’t think it was worth $ 8.75.

I waited about 10 minutes to get two salads and hummus. That was not too bad, but they forgot to include the hummus with the take out order. The food was above average and not to expensive.

I should have read the other one star reviews on here because they are 100% SOTRUE. This place has the WORST delivery I have seen. I order lunch from places in NYC all the time but this tops as the worst service. Order was placed at 1030 supposed to be delivered by 12. By 1 o’clock we called and they said that they never received our order, how is this possible? Ok… i give them the benefit of the doubt. 3:30 rolls around we call again to check the status and they said it has already left. ONEHOURLATER at 4:30 I FINALLY get my food and it is COLD. All of the orders were cold and I even got sick after eating it. DO not order from here. maybe it is different if you eat in the store but if you want quick delivery this is NOT the place. It seems like they are losing a LOT of valuable customers…
