    Beef pita plate
    Kathy N.

    WOW - Casa Pita is amazing and probably the best Mediterranean food I've had. Everything was so incredibly delicious. Located in the old La Frida space at Grant/Craycroft (there is still a wall or window with La Frida on it :) ), the place feels homey and comfortable. Service is welcoming and great. We were immediately served water with fruit and cucumber in it - such a nice, refreshing twist from a simple lemon. I had the chicken shawarma plate and my guy had the gyro plate. Both were very impressive looking, especially the gyro pate served on a kebab plate with the meat hanging over the plate. Such a cool way to serve. Everything was perfectly seasoned and delicious. For dessert we had Kunafa and Dubai chocolate cake. I've never had Kunafa and they had just made it that morning. So interesting and unique. All the flavors combined along with the rosewater syrup and soft cheese...chef's kiss! the Dubai chocolate cake was delicious as well. I look forward to returning to Casa Pita.

    Casa Pita Grill Mix. The 3-D presentation didn't photograph as clearly as I would have liked.

    Casa Pita is bright, open, pretty, and immaculate. The food fragrance was delightful and welcoming. We were greeted and immediately seated upon arrival. Our server brought ice water with lemons and cucumbers with menus and assured she would be happy to answer any questions we might have. The menu is extensive: two pages of breakfast choices (that all sound delicious), and additional pages of appetizers, salads, entrees, platters, and desserts. And I must add that the menu is beautiful with its colors and graphics. My friend ordered the beef shawarma in pita, which was huge and came with a lovely salad. She also chose the falafel appetizer. I enjoyed one of them and it was probably the best falafel I've had: delicate in texture and assertively seasoned and spiced. I ordered the mixed grill, which is chunks of lamb and chicken, rice, pita, hummus, and salad. Both the lamb and chicken were flavorful, tender, and juicy. My meal was presented on and in 3-D fashion; visually arresting and I've never seen anything like that before. Everything was delectable and so fresh, and portions are generous. We both look forward to a yummy lunch tomorrow. We will return. Soon.

    Chicken Biryani
    Tzu-En L.

    Came here the first time and I really like their food but the service was not so good. We waited for a long time upon seating and no one brought us the menu. I had to go to the front and grabbed our menu. No one really checked in with us to take our orders and we waited for more than 10-15 min for someone to take our orders after we voiced our frustrations. The service is in need of improvement since no one really check in with us much during the dining. Food: the food is pretty good. We got the baba ghanoush and it is pretty good ! The flavor came together well with a smoky touch. We got chicken biryani, which was diff from other spots that make biryani. As you can see from my picture, I got 2 chicken on top of a bed of rice. The chicken was very well done and perfectly moist and cook. The rice was also very good and moist instead of dried up like Arizona desert. I love this dish and I would get it again. We also got a beef kabob like plate and the meat was also seasoned very well. Overall their food is great with good seasoning that is unique to this spot. I love their food and I would give their food rating a 4/5. However, their service is in need of improvement. I would still come back and try other dishes in hope of better service for the future.

    Main entrees menu 5/2026 - I tried all kinds of filters on these glossy pages!

    I read their wonderful transition story as they rebuilt into this venue following personal loss via the pandemic and closure of their campus (Sinbad's) location. We were looking for later eats on a Monday night (a challenge in Tucson) and were happy to learn that this bucket-list restaurant was not only open at 7:30p but it's open 7 days/week 8a-10p with a robust M.E. bfast menu too! Things were winding down (less than half full) and service was excellent and attentive. We opted for one Gyro salad style ($15) and one Kofta Kabab plate ($20). They arrived within 10 minutes with both meats dangling from traditional serving stands (see pics). I had read that the owner came across those on a recent trip to the Middle East and thought they would add a nice touch to her entrees (they do)! The food was delicious - well seasoned meats, soft rice, fresh and crunchy veggies and delicious sauces, including their Tzatziki (yogurt-based sauce). The 4 little falafels ($10) were a bit pricey for the size but excellent - warm with a nice crunch before reaching the soft center. My small critiques are that the music was waaaay too loud and the slices of pita that came with each entree were not warmed. I also think that the quantity of meat (vs other local M.E. restaurants) is on the stingier side. For dessert we were seriously eyeing their popular Dubai chocolate cake but heard they had a fresh batch of Kunafa and we opted for that at a very reasonable $8. It is made with crunchy phyllo dough over a layer of mild akkawi (similar to mozzarella) cheese, drizzled with ghee, baked, and then drizzled with a sweet floral syrup (think sweetened rose/orange water). It's differently delicious and somewhat difficult to find but worth the hunt. This definitely had us leaving on a nice high note and eager to return to try their lamb and shawarma entrees as well as ME bfast. The restaurant is hard to spot - tucked in the back/corner with a prominent "Frida" sign at the top?Parking is free/easy in the large general lot of this gym-anchored strip mall. Small note: there's a 3% charge for credit cards. Also, increasingly businesses are calculating the tip After the tax has been added. It's a minor but nonetheless unconsented-to inflation of the tip. Just fyi!

    Pistachio Baklava - OUTSTANDING!
    Sean K.

    Chicken Shawarma platter is excellent / delicious. Generous portion. Falafel appetizer was excellent as was the Baba Ghanoush. Pistachio Baklava was OUTSTANDING. Service was friendly and professional. Restaurant is very casual, clean. They also have a patio that has beautiful views of the Catalinas. Easy to get to on NE side of Tucson, lots of parking. Recommend.

    Gyro plate
    Andrea T.

    Food was heavenly! I got the chicken swarma and my husband ordered gyro plate. Service was quick and ambiance very relaxed and casual. Check out my pics- great presentation! 4.7 stars

    LG G.

    Amazing food, great service, and a wonderful ambience. The dolma really stood out and was absolutely delicious. Everything about the experience felt warm and welcoming.

    Falafel plate
    Windy T.

    Stumbled on this while looking for a lunch spot before hitting Costco. Was amazing find. It's in the old Frida cafe spot. Very clean. Expansive menu with great hours 0800-midnight. Food and prices excellent. Wish I lived closer!

    Chicken Salad (shawarma)

    Hubby and I came for lunch excited to try a new Mediterranean place. We had great service and a short wait for our food. Hubby got the gyros plate (a special that day for $18.00) which had a great presentation on a hanging skewer and came with a small salad, rice, pita bread, tzatziki and hummus. The gyros meat was cut thick so the skewer would go thru it. It was different than what he's used to but very juicy. The hummus was very creamy and good. Rice...tasted like LG rice and not basmati...just meh. Overall, the plate was good. I had a chicken salad, ($15.00) which turned out to be chicken shawarma. It was nice with mixed greens, pickles, cukes and tomatoes. The chicken had good flavor but alot of it was very tiny pieces which made it difficult to eat. I would like to have a kebab next time if it's possible. Nothing bad to say...really fun presentation which they also did with falafel. Just different. Might go back...in that area often.

    Dubai Cake
    Kandy D.

    The entire experience was heavenly. What a cute spot with an amazing view! We were greeted warmly and served hot Iraqi tea in beautiful glasses. We started with the dolma appetizer and it came with a fresh salad and orange slices! Next was the Casa Pita Mixed Grill which had a variety of meats presented on a shish kabob "hanger" dish alongside rice, salad, hummus, pita and tzatziki. Absolutely delicious and enough food for two! We finished the meal with baklava and Dubai cake, both presented with fresh cream on gorgeous dishes. A truly remarkable dinner that we can't wait to experience again! Thank you, Casa Pita!

    Beautiful Dubai chocolate cake

    I ordered the chicken Shawarma and it was delicious. Beautiful presentation also. In addition, I had the Dubai chocolate cake, which was absolutely delicious. I will be back.

Don't tell your mom or grandma, but these are probably the best cinnamon rolls I've ever had in my life! The classic cinnamon roll will be a must purchase every time I visit from here on out. May have gone a little overboard trying the seasonal flavors, but when in Rome right?! Sampled the Blueberry Muffin, Banana Pudding, Peach Cobbler, and Biscoff Cookie rolls as well, which were all delicious. They are tender, fluffy, and buttery! Was expecting blueberry and banana to be my favorite seasonal ones, but the Biscoff Cookie stole the show! Given the size and sweetness, think I'll be getting one classic and one seasonal from here on out. The inside of the bakery is also super cute and Christa, the owner, is just as sweet as her baked goods! Also worth noting I brought my pup along to get our order and there were no issues having her. One thing to be aware of - get there early and be prepared to wait. We arrived right at 10 AM when they opened and wait about 20 minutes, which wasn't a problem at all. Definitely err on the side of caution and arrive early to avoid long waits or select flavors running out though. Overall, Chez Peachy is definitely worth the hype and somewhere I look forward to check out from time to time and around the holidays or when guests are in town!

Had a bit of a visit to Wonka factory feel to me. Made it into the ordering area quickly and the inside is beautifully decorated. Floral accents everywhere in pink and even icing piping on the display case. Very cool vibe. Nobody was rushed and service was efficient and friendly. We got the banana and a carrot cake for my wife and I. Friends got another banana, a classic, and a biscoff. We shared them all. My favorite were the classic and the banana. All of them have the base cinnamon roll which is fantastic. Light, fluffy, soft, amazingness. All the flavors are so well done. I tend to not love things overly sweet and these were excellent. Don't sweat which one you choose, you can't go wrong. For what it is worth there was a line for about an hour but it moves. Got pretty small again by around 11am. Peachy, I love what you are doing and look forward to coming back. One request..... can you sell some bottles of milk? Your stuff just cries for a moo juice pairing. If not, no big deal. I know to bring my own now.

Beyond the regular cones and cups they also have some options such as the flight, nachos, and the banana split. They also specific which flavors have gluten. They used to advertise that their dairy came from grass-fed cows, but that stopped a few years ago so I'm guessing that is no longer the case. While that's what caught my attention and actually got me in the door, I've stayed a customer because they do mention that their dairy comes from cows that have not been given antibiotics or hormones. So for those who pay attention to such things, take note!
