    “To give you a sense of the kind of service and care, the waitress informed us that she does not give a check until asked so that people can stay at the table as long as they like and not feel rushed. The owner is a wonderful character. He makes you feel like family and that is part of what makes the atmosphere so pleasant. Of course it's a restaurant. So it's the food that's most important. I had the grilled fish of the day .I can't recall having a better seasoned and cooked fish. Everything was wonderful. A little quirk is that they do not have hard liquor on the menu. It's available, but don't expect any exotic drinks. We will be returning.”

    “One of the best experiences I’ve had in New Orleans! Pita Paradise Shawarma was absolutely amazing, from the food to the incredible customer service. The gentleman who helped us was genuinely friendly, welcoming, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. He even offered us something to try, which was such a thoughtful gesture and really showed how much he cares about his customers. It’s rare to find places where you’re treated with such kindness and hospitality. The food was fantastic, but the service made the experience even more memorable. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting New Orleans. Definitely deserves five stars, and I’ll absolutely be coming back! — Miguel Arguello”

    “Don't let the location of this place fool you. I've eaten here countless times, and while picking up my salad with shawarma the other day, I realized why it's so good. The chef (also owner) was placing the chicken piece by piece on the salad rather than just throwing it on there. I ended up chatting with him and he let me know that he and his family cook at the restaurant just like they cook at home. There is true pride in ownership. If you haven't tried Shawarma on the Go, you're missing out.”
