“ Really good Mediterranean food! I got the Shawarma sandwich and the falafel wrap. Both tasted super fresh and soft. Also, loved the garlic paste/sauce!! Love the interior of the place good to have a really nice Mediterranean restaurant in the area that uses what tastes like high quality ingredients. Service, everyone was friendly and super nice. Plenty of parking and space for larger groups. Perfect to bring the whole family. ”
“ Pita Pita never disappoints! Their hummus is some of the best I've ever had — perfectly creamy, fresh, and packed with flavor. The muthawama is another must-try — rich, garlicky, and so smooth it practically melts in your mouth. And their fresh, warm pitas tie it all together perfectly. You can tell they put real care into everything they make. Great service, generous portions, and a welcoming atmosphere. This is one of those places you’ll keep coming back to again and again! ”
“ This was a random choice for me to stop and get dinner and was such a great panic choice. The service was fantastic and welcoming and the food was delicious. I ended up placing a to go order after dining in because I enjoyed it soo much.. I highly recommend trying this restaurant yourself. ”
“ I’ve just had the best Middle Eastern food I’ve ever tasted. It made me feel so good like it transported me to a magical land. The music on the background helped as well. I tried the meat plate and it was amazing. They also ‘dropped’ a falafel as well on my plate which I liked so much even though I typically dislike that. The service was very good as well, as I felt very welcome and their food options were explained well to me. I will definitely come again. ”
“ Coming from the Milwaukee area, I always look forward to stopping once a week out by you guys while working. The food is always incredible and healthier at that. Thanks so much for making my tummy and I happier ) ”
“ This was so good that I wish I didn’t know it existed, because I fear I will become a regular here. I had the falafel sandwich combo. The falafel was flavorful and fresh. Fries were hot and crispy, and everyone was really friendly. Super clean too, you can tell they care about presentation. Definitely check them out if you’re in the area! ”
