The Pita Pit

Defiantly really yummy way better than subway and way more options! I ordered delivery and they messed up my order, I called and they said they would credit it idk how, so hopefully it will be credited. I will for sure eat there again !! Just wish they had artichokes and sprouts & they would be solid

I was sincerely hoping for something super tasty at this spot near my new home, but was a bit disappointed. I would say it’s somewhere between 2 and 3 stars. Yes, the veggies are fresh and there are lots of them-​spinach, red and green peppers, jalapenos, cukes. However the olives are canned. I had the chicken souvlaki with veggies and let’s just say, it’s not Chipotle. And there was very little chicken-​I felt like I was on an expedition. The place was clean and at about 6PM there were only a couple of people in there. Also, the folks who wait on you are just as friendly as you would hope. I just wouldn’t go out of my way to get a pita here which is more like a smallish burrito. And yes, it’s inexpensive, however for almost the same $ you get more and tastier at someplace like Chipotle. However I might go back and try something else.

Good place for a quick lunch. It was my first time here just a little before the lunch rush. I wasn’t sure what to order so just went with the chicken Caesar pita. It’s pretty much the same set up as a subway just with ‘fresher’ ingredients and instead of sandwich bread, they fill up your pita pocket bread with additional ingredients.
They charge extra for certain ingredients. You can either choose the hummus or the cheese, otherwise you have to pay extra to get both.
I loaded up my pita with hummus, spinach, peppercinis, jalapenos and olives.
It was pretty tasty. Very filling too!
I’d go back if I was in a hurry!

Service is always fast and friendly. Food is fresh and of good quality for the price.

I have never been in Pita Pit, but Carnegie Mellon catered Pita Pit in for some kind of speaker one day. I didn’t attend the speaker, but there was remaining free food. Score.
I had a gyro pita and some kind of steak pita. The gyro one was definitely better. A few reviewers have said this is healthy, but I don’t think these are really «healthy.» They’re healthy like Subway is healthy, you know? The veggies were crisp and fresh, and the wraps were a great size. I have no idea what the cost was so this review is strictly on taste.
Would I trek over to the store to get the pitas on my own time? Probably not. But Pita Pit is good for a catered lunch if you need that kind of thing.

Great hummus and falafel veggie pitas! The food is awesome and ingredients tasted fresh. We ordered ahead of time and picked up so can’t comment about the service but the one thing that struck me was the person who checked out didn’t make eye contact or smile. Someone else behind the counter did say have a nice day though, so it’s not all bad. I would go back for the food though.

The Pitas are good here and prices super cheap. It good for a quick lunch or dinner on the run. Nothing fancy but I consider it the «subway» for Pitas. Stay out of the bathroom though! It was so dirty and smelly when I was here. Go somewhere unless unless it is an emergency!

Pita Pit is my favorite «fast» food!!! The workers load your pita with all the good stuff and there is no extra charge unless you get extras like baba ghanoush. I usually order the chicken souvlaki on whole wheat pita with alfalfa sprouts, baba, and other vegetables. It is so good!!! The workers are always friendly and willing to make your pita everything you want! Pay parking is available on the streets, although you could park on a residential street and walk if you didn’t want to pay to park. I ate in a couple times but usually order out. The restaurant is spacious and almost never busy, which is nice if you don’t like crowds or loud noises while you eat. I love this place and give it 5 stars! The price is right, the food is awesome and the service is great!

I work down the street, so when I do order food, this is usually my go to. It’s one of the few places that I haven’t yet had a bad experience with. Fresh ingredients, delicious combinations, and they deliver!

I went to Pita Pit for the first time using a Groupon deal. Although I wasn’t too impressed with the atmosphere (slightly unclean), I was quite surprised by the food itself which was quite tasty. And that is even AFTER a 25 minute drive home before digging in! I also thought the staff was very sociable and made a great recommendation for toppings on my Philly Cheese Steak pita (I know, I know… not the healthiest choice). Groupon or no Groupon — I will be back!

Truly the worst customer service I have ever experienced. The employees walked around aimlessly, never smiled, talked extremely quietly unless they were discussing sports between themselves, and treated my guest and I horribly. I even tried to thank them at the end of the night as we were leaving and they completely ignored me. I suppose they were very busy watching the TV they have in the corner.
I contacted Pita Pit corporate about this, who forwarded my very detailed explanation of what happened to the franchise owners at this specific location. Dennis Manning, co-​owner of this location, responded by dismissing my comments due to my admission that the food was good. He assumed, «based on my timeline» that my food was created within 5 minutes of the time I ordered it and that somehow makes the horrible visit perfectly fine in his mind? He proceeded to bash me for saying that I felt uncomfortable based on what he calls the employee’s «poor interpersonal skills». What a disgusting attitude to have toward an honest guest.
The place was extremely dirty with tables askew, wrappers everywhere, and dirt all over the tables.
I am absolutely certain that a different Pita Pit would be good, but this one is awful. The food was good, and the idea behind the Pita Pit itself is great too, but the fact that the employee walked over to the register and blankly stared at me with all-​but a scowl when I initially entered was ridiculous.
I wish I had never gone here. The employees made me and my guest feel more than just uncomfortable. They made me feel 100% unwelcome. It left a terrible taste in my mouth.

Sometimes I forget that Pita Pit always pisses me off and I go back there and then a few visits later, they remind me. Ostensibly they should be vegetarian friendly, but they will occasionally put grilled meat all over their work space and then drag my vegetarian pita through it, causing me to have to throw it away and waste money and food (and I get that eating out is always dicey, but this is pretty egregious when it happens). Today it was the other thing that annoys me, when I get a vegetarian pita and they give me only minimal vegetables. Here it is two hours later and I am starving because the dude filled the pita as though the veggies were a condiment to a meat, except there is no meat in my pita. With just a few tweaks they could be awesome, but they mess up the little details.

Think «Subway» but way more awesome. The Pita Pit has delicious fresh ingredients that you choose to go on whatever style pita you want. I had the chicken crave and added a bunch of tasty veggies. Filling and fairly healthy lunch. I think I’ll add the Pita Pit on a regular lunch rotation.

A healthy alternative to fast food they offer fresh poultry and various grilled meats with a variety of delicious veggies packed into a pita pocket. The staff is generally polite unless you come in during their down time then they make it seem like you are inconveniencing them but the quality of the food overshadows the service, This place rocks!

I love this place! They have a ton of healthy options and delicious grilled meats. Tons of veggie options, and if you don’t like pitas, you can always get your pita turned into a salad! Don’t forget the avocado!
I would give the place 5 stars, but the staff often leaves you waiting for several minutes before they serve you. The line is usually empty, as is the restaurant. A certain employee seems to usually have his head up his you know what, and makes it seem as if you are being an inconvenience to him. Other than that this is a good place to eat. A good alternative to Subway.

I tried Pita Pit for the first time a couple years ago when I received a free gift card from work. I was flustered from beginning to end— I handed the cashier my gift card as payment, and he just thought it was some sort of promo card. He then asked for my debit card, which I passed over. When I questioned him why my gift card did not run, he was very perturbed and snapped at me when he had to cancel and re-​do the transaction. Then, I ordered the Gyro, which anywhere else would not require much description. Well, I was confused by the fact that I was asked what I wanted on my Gyro (um, the usual Gyro ingredients?!) and that Hummus costs additional (which is not ever mentioned at the register when ordering the Gyro).
Maybe I’ve never gotten over this initial experience, but I have yet to truly enjoy Pita Pit. I think the Pitas are over-​filled with meat and sauce and under-​filled with vegetables. Though initially tasty, I always feel very ill after eating here… I only plan on returning when I get dragged here yet again by a co-​worker trying to avoid the other two chain options on this block of East Carson.

Way overrated. This is basically like subway wrapped in pita bread. Won’t go again.

This place is amazing.
Their food is sooo fresh, seriously, the freshest spinach ever. Not to mention their feta too, it is the best!
I often go in and order a chicken pita with spinach, feta, cucumber and tzatziki. Simple and delicious, especially after a good workout or run.
Yum, this place makes me hungry thinking about it!

OOO Pita Pit… how you make me park illegally outside of your establishment for your delicious pitas…
Cheap, Fast, Easy, Delicious
Pros: HUMMUS is Yummus. Grilled (warm) turkey on a salad makes it taste more like a meal and less like rabbit food, also you can have them grill your veggies for a sneaky way to get double veggies. Great selection of veggies and sauces/​dressings. Fast. Healthy. Outdoor seating.
Cons: Very limited options for a side besides chips and a cookie. No soup? No Fruit? Come on P-​Pit!
Overall: Great Spot for a healthy lunch in the Southside! Somewhere you can actually eat during the busy lunch hour without having to box out other 9 to 5ers.
FYI: Hummus is extra but if you don’t get cheese its free!

I couldn’t help giving Pita Pit 5 stars — it’s amazing. Fast & cheap, who knew you could fit so much into a pita? Those guys really know how to roll ‘em. I love the falafel pita with hummus, sprouts, cucumbers, olives, spinach, tomatoes and tzatziki.
The best part is, you never come out smelling like bread and cold cuts (like other chains that shall remain nameless)
