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 tried doner in bun and in wrap
Bun was not the best option but Wrap was very tasty
But to pay 17 for small wrap is way to expensive
Otherwise this place is not to bad at all
To expensive comper to food portion“

“Excellent food. Good people.“

“by far the best lemon Greek soup and saganaki! such a gem!“

“I’ve lived less than a mile from this place for a decade and never tried it; tonight was the night. It’s a unique establishment - hookah lounge, banquet hall, bar. Walking in was a little confusing for first timers but we were quickly welcomed and seated at the bar. Drink pours were impressively heavy. Our food came out fast and was great. The cheese burek appetizer deserves special mention with its garlic and hot sauces! Our waiter/bartender was in full hustle mode on a busy Friday night but still found time to take good care of us and have a few short chats. Overall I’d highly recommend eating here. It’s a bit “different,” but who likes the same old thing over and over? I’ll be back.

Dietary restrictions: Plenty of vegetarian and vegan options here.

Parking: Parking in front and behind the building, one lot has a small curb to traverse. Not an issue for most vehicles.“

“This restaurant is good and offers the most delicious and tasty food and fresh juices. I recommend it.“

“This is probably one of the worst food pics I've ever taken only because I knew how super delicious everything was going to be and I took it in a hurry to dive in! My husband and I travel through the area a few times a year on the way to see a medical specialist. We discovered this restaurant about 4 years ago and the roasted Greek chicken dinner is ALWAYS a homerun! You know how you hyper fixate on a certain meal, but eventually it loses its shine so to speak, well I keep thinking that will happen with this chicken. But it is consistently amazing. You get a nice big salad or soup, rice with Greek potatoes, freshly cooked vegetables, half or whole chicken, (the whole chicken order only comes with the sides for one like the half chicken, but it could easily feed two) warm pita and a lemon wedge. I happy dance from the first sprinkle of squeezed lemon over my plate on through the last bite. We always have enough to bring home for lunches as well. Such good food that really makes you feel good. Friends back home always ask if I had the chance to stop by during our trips because they know what a highlight it is for us.
The atmosphere can be a little loud and echoey at times. I had an injury that makes bright lights and loud spaces pretty painful at times. When we can't eat in, we order for carry out and picnic in the very nearby, super beautiful park with great facilities, Sunset Woods Park. Greek chicken in a beautiful park? **Chef's kiss**“

“We have a nice dinner the food was so good, and for sure we will back 💖💖“

“The best food & Staff very yummy 😋“

“My first time eating lunch at Ema was outstanding. I was meeting a colleague and wasn’t sure what to expect because we had a lot of work to cover. The entire staff was very helpful, courteous and knowledgeable about the menu. We received wonderful service and had a very healthy lunch. The food was great and all our salads were fresh and delicious.“

“Excellent food and ambiance, The brick chicken is my favorite. Our friends who have lived throughout the country said the pork chop is the best they ever had“

“Food was fresh and delicious, tasted very authentic! We were a party of 5 that all ordered a different dish and all was very good. Restaurant itself is a bit plain but it’s modern, clean and friendly service which is more important. Ordered the baklava at the end and it is GREAT! Thank you!“

“Great selection, reasonable pricing, amazing customer service. Highly recommend.“

“This place is great. Good food. Well priced. Attentive and friendly staff. My wife and I drive like 25 mins out of our way just to come here. It's getting harder these days to find restaurants that haven't excessively increased prices while lowering the overall quality of their food. Definitely worth the visit for great Mediterranean.“

Sweet & well educated waitress Joanna added to a great atmosphere of the evening. You can meet many musicians & poets there. I had a great time last night in Alibaba. Thank you, Magda Mlodozeniec“

“My family ate here today after a soccer game and it was the perfect spot to grab some quick food. They have a lot of items on their menu, and everything we got was great: chicken pita, gyro, burgers, chicken fingers and soup. The portions are large and you get your money's worth here. The owner was extremely friendly and you can tell he takes pride in his restaurant. We will be back!“
