“Make sure you try ALL the spreads. Amazing flavors and textures will bring you back. Everything tastes fresh and made with care. Thanks to Victor H for his service.“

“Chicken shawarma is awesome. I did not like the meat shawarma is not something i would recommend at all, they used too many spices including cardamom which you cannot taste the meat. I enjoyed the chicken shawarma a lot. However, i have half of my meat shawarma and after I was feeling not good.
The service is nice and the people are friendly, prices are fine and the restroom is clean. They have a collection of soda and drinks, free parking.
Small couple tables not a big space but chill and clean.“

“Visiting Pita Pita felt like taking a direct trip back to my homeland. From the moment I arrived, Ahmad service was truly exceptional—warm, welcoming, and with that human touch that reminded me of my country and the hospitality of its people.

The food… absolutely spectacular! Every dish was full of authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, and prepared with care. It brought back memories of my childhood and meals shared with dear friends. The service was fast, attentive, and highly professional.

Without a doubt, Pita Pita is the best Mediterranean restaurant I’ve ever visited. Thank you, Ahmad, for making this experience so special. I will definitely be coming back many more times!“

“I'll try to be real brief here, since dining area is shared with few other food places, what I can rate here is service, food and pricing.There are plently of employees, so you don't wait much. Overall, they were nice and friendly, and I haven't seen them messing around or doing something weird at all times. That's a plus.As to the food, I guess that's a great choice of cuisine to add among common food court stuff like italian, philly steaks and chinese. And a decent selection of ingredients as well, you can fully customize your wrap or bowl.I got the falafil wrap on tomato basil tortilla, and it was super good, however, the structure did not go well. Hummus made tortilla bottom soggy, it broke a bit and insides started falling off... Either another tortilla bread needed, or a different way to wrap.Fries were freshly made right for me, golden and crispy.The only thing I didn't get is pricing, for a combo of falafil wrap, fries and lemonade I paid $15, which is out of this world. Ok well, they may say all of their neighbors are in the same price range which is true; however mall food court food (even if its decent) should not cost 1,5 half times much of a regular meal same price elsewhere. That may be a landlords' problem skyrocketing these people rent or what else is causing this idk.That's not much difference, when you goto this specifil mall once in a year, but I've visited so many other places that deserve those extra $5 instead. A star down for pricing.“

“Had an amazing lunch!!! Food selection is amazing. I wound up with the Tuna Poke Bowl and it didn’t disappoint. Our waitstaff was attentive to detail. I am not a big dessert person when I go out, but the Key Lime Pie was calling our names. SOOOOO good!!! Thank you for a great meal. We will be back very soon.“

“The service was friendly and the food was tasty, but not incredible. The place was quite expensive with 2 bowls costing over $35 at lunch time. The seating in the restaurant is quite basic, but roomy and comfortable. No metal utensils even for dine-in customers“

“Food was amazing we had number 8 The chicken kebabs very delicious and the chicken Shawarma was so good with the rice The hummus was one of the best I’ve had with the pita so was the Baba Ghanouj very tasty welcoming and clean atmosphere. I’d recommend Amy‘s kebab to all my friends and prices were very reasonable. Ordered the 3 way mixed grill with kefta kebab, chicken kebab, and chicken shawerma.The meal included rice, bread, salad, and some sauces, we added garlic sauce and lentil soup Everything was very good, service was great, clean restaurant with plenty of parking.“

“My son recommended your restaurant to me, so I drove an hour to check it out! The staff was very friendly and the food was SO good! I ordered more food to bring home to my husband. We will definitely be back.“

“We were looking for a Mediterranean restaurant and were driving by, so decided to try this place out.
Ordered Shawarma wraps of various kinds and some falafel and Baba Ghanoush. The restaurant had 2 rooms full of tables. The rooms lack atmosphere/decor, so if you are looking for that, you will be disappointed. The rooms are just places to sit and eat. Service was courteous but seemed to be slow considering only 2 tables were occupied. The food was very good and made up for the slow arrival.
Overall, decent experience, I would go again but not as a sit-down restaurant but as a take out place.“

“The food here is AMAZING! So much better than their competitors. I got the combo meal and everything tasted great. The staff is so warm and friendly. My new favorite place! Will be coming here often.“

“Enough variety in the menu to keep things interesting. Everything I've ever eaten here has been excellent including some truly amazing soups. The staff is wonderful. What more could anyone want in a restaurant? I love this place!“

“wait time was very minimal. Many food options . Nice Social distance set up.“

“They have really good food and the portions are worth the price!! Been there twice already.“

“The chicken and gyros platter is outstanding. One of my favorite meals in the area. The lunch special is a wonderful hidden gem of a deal these days. I definitely recommend this place. I’m excited to try the burger and more things on the menu. I can appreciate they serve halal meat and you can tell it’s all made with care and quality.“

“Updated review: Best halwa puri in Chicagoland! You get 3 extra extra large puris and a plate of deliciousness - halwa, cholay, potatoes, and achar. We had a large group and although the restaurant was very busy, the service was on top of it and made sure the food came out timely, fresh and hot! Everyone in our party commented on the food and we all left very full and satisfied. Thank you 5*

Ordered to go: karahi gosht, Karachi chicken biryani special for the day, and the bbq platter (which takes about half hr to prepare) - all dishes were so good! It is a bit on the spicier side but family enjoyed the food.“

“My mom goes here a lot but I barely got to tgo for the first time ever, and their food is SO good! I will say my spicy chicken sandwich looked old, it still tasted good, but it looked like it had been sitting there for a while, but their steak sandwich and gyro meat are to die for!“

“Ordered the lamb kefta kebab with basamati rice, hummus & the salad that came with it had amazing seasoning. Will definitely be back 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“
