“First time eating at Pita Pita... mind blown! I already can't wait to go back! The Lemon Shrimp Bowl (seasonal) is a MUST TRY. * The shrimp was cooked to perfection. * The lemon garlic potatoes? AMAZING. So crispy and flavorful. You ever see those TikTok videos of influencers cooking potatoes and showing off the crunch? THIS WAS THAT. * The basmati rice and tabbouleh are classic sides that paired so well with the shrimp and potatoes! Rice was cooked to the T and the tabbouleh was a nice, fresh addition. * Get. as. many. sauces. as. you. can! I know they charge extra, but SO worth it. Want some extra spice? GET THE HOT CHILI! Perfect amount of spice level!!! * The potato chips were a great palette cleanser but was also great to dip into the sauces as well!!! * Not pictured, but the mint lemonade is sooo refreshing to get with your meal! If you're debating about whether or not to try Pita Pita (specifically the Laguna location) JUST GO! You will not regret it. Also, a HUGE shoutout to Jacob who came in CLUTCH! I thought I had submitted my online order, but when I arrived, I realized I never actually hit the order button I wasn't trying to show it, but Jacob could tell I was now in a rush (lunch breaks go by fast!) and went out of his way to start preparing my order and checkout my order, all within seconds of finding out my mistake. So THANK YOU Jacob for your outstanding service!!! I had enough time leftover to enjoy my amazing lunch :D“

“Excellent and quick service! My partner and I arrived around 11am on a weekday and there was no wait. I ordered the fries wrap and he got a plate. The portion size is very generous and great for meal prepping. I was planning on saving half for dinner but "accidentally" ate it all because it was so good haha. We were also provided free samples of the kale salad and the chickpea salad. I'll definitely be getting the kale salad in the future! Great ambiance with chill music and clean atmosphere. Bathrooms were very clean as well. Good job on the spotify playlist!“

“The restaurant is the equivalent to Naf Naf Grill in other places, which cannot be found in California. It is located in a small shopping plaza where most businesses are super busy. It makes this one look very quiet in comparison. However the food is surprisingly good. After we ordered from here for the first time, we ordered again the next day.“

“My husband and I can't wait to return. Both of our meals were delicious and very filling. I was able to make two meals out of my bowl! We tried the yogurt sauce and cilantro sauce and they were both delicious in their own way. What a gem of a place. I was also really impressed with how well kept it was. One of the employees was cleaning the baseboards. It reminded me that I needed to the same when I got home.“

“Lunch is $25.99 plus Hot Tea: $5.90; you only could order 4 dishes at a time and then “going on forever”, however, you should not have left-over, otherwise, a fine, I assumed. A few choices only available for dinner price($32.99). We ordered Skinny Dipping Cow; Karubi In Tokyo; Tried N True(Bulgogi, Tasty); Daa Pae Pork Belly; Surfin Shrimp(each order has 4 pieces); Winnie The Poohs Sn; Eight Firing Arms(spicy octopus, each order has 2 pieces). We enjoyed Bulgogi, shrimp and octopus more than others. Service was good and responsive.“

“I went there last night on a rainy night and ordered 2 soups and their famous grill chicken. I ordered lentil soup and chicken soup. Both soups were very delicious. Their famous grill chicken was also very delicious. But I would also say their dishes were reasonably priced too. The portions were good too. I highly recommend them and would definitely go back.“

“Been coming here for years for lunch with co-workers. Come here once in a while with my wife for dinner. The place had a kind of Parisian bistro atmosphere in the evenings. There are many Persian delights on the menu, but I come for the Fesengen. Service is always friendly and excellent. Sometimes I call it in and pick it up on my way home to eat at home.“
