Very tasty, nice portions, many options, might be turning into a regular stop. 5 stars but can't get the app to record it!

In downtown Overland Park, a visit to a hidden gem Hummus & Pita, a Mediterranean restaurant, proved to be a wonderful experience, highlighted by a leisurely 3-hour lunch with Pam. The food was not only flavorful but also reasonably priced, with a menu full of appetizers, salads, soups, wraps, sandwiches, and desserts. The chicken kebab plate I selected was very flavorful with rice, well-prepared seasoned roasted vegetables and a side of tzatziki sauce. The chicken was cooked to perfection, tender and juicy. The Pistachio Baklava dessert was a delightful conclusion, enjoyed immediately rather than being saved for later with coffee as originally planned. We were greeted as we walked in, and was given a sample of hummus to try . The atmosphere is very quiet, cozy very relaxing place to visit. So next time you're in downtown Overland Park stop into Hummus & Pita 8039 Santa Fe Overland Park, Kansas Monday-Thursday 11 AM to 7:40 PM Friday and Saturday 11 AM to 8:40 PM Sunday 12:00pm-6:40 PM read more

Ok. I had been hearing about hummus and pita for so long and finally gave it a try. I wasn't disappointed! As one would hope, the hummus was top notch. I had chicken shawarma which was delicious. However, my friend went with what one of the employees recommended - chicken arayes - and I gotta say I was jealous. Stuffed crispy pita with meat and pomegranate molasses. I hadn't had anything quite like it before and will definitely be ordering that next time. read more

I have been to Hummus and Pita a couple of times. My last visit was to satisfy my craving for lamb. I got the beef and lamb cheeseburger, it had lettuce, tomato, red onion, and mayonnaise. I also got the combo which included fries and a can of soda. The fries were hot, salty and flavorful. My burger was extremely messy as it had way too much mayonnaise on the burger. Also felt that the patty was a little on the salty side, but may have been just over seasoned. All the other menu items I would strongly recommend especially their home made hummus. read more

In one visit, I'm already a huge fan of Hummus and Pita! A while back, we dined at the Ethiopian place across the street and I saw Hummus and Pita and bookmarked it to return. I saw that Steve D was FTR (of course) and liked it a lot. I pretty much grew up eating Lebanese food at least weekly and love all Middle Eastern cuisine. The owner here is from Jordan. The food here is exquisite! We started with the delicious and beautiful presented tahini heavy hummus. We prefer tahini forward hummus to lemon or garlic heavy versions and this is perfection. The pita was served very hot and fresh. The olive oil and special little jalapeño blend are chef's kiss good. The tabouli here is great! Wonderfully proportioned and fresh daily. I can tell it's not been sitting around. Everything here is halal. I love that. It's better and higher quality. Healthier. It's a beautiful restaurant too! So clean, cute and cozy. My wife had the gyro plate and they let us sub a salad for fries. She loved it! The tzatziki sauce was perfect; chunky chopped cucumber was amazing. I had the beef shawarma. It was perfect. No notes. I've only had one better in my life. I can't wait to have another here!! I highly recommend Hummus and Pita! Wow!!! read more

The staff was SO friendly and welcoming. We told them it was our first time and they offered a sample and help with the menu. We tried the beef plate and gyro, both were amazing. It was order at the counter and find a seat. We had no problem getting a seat at 7:30 on a Friday. It was very clean and staff checked in often. read more

Hummus and Pita - Gyro - Mediterranean Near Me - Overland Park, Kansas

Based on my earlier amazing experience, I placed a small catering order for 4 portions of falafel. I was told when I had called before that it's better to place any type (big or small) catering orders in advance, so I called the day before 24 hours ahead and confirmed pickup for 4 PM. On the day of pickup, I called at 4:03 to let them know I was on the way, but each time the call went straight to voicemail. I reached at 4:23, only to find that my order wasn't ready. The person at the front counter was a bit impolite and said I was 23 minutes late, and that they only make the food once the customer arrives because "he doesn't want his food to get bad attention" and that those falafel just have to go in to the fryer and wouldn't take much time. That reasoning made no sense to me. If I'm placing a catering or to‑go order, the whole point is that it should be ready when I arrive and rather I gave them 23 extra minutes to keep it ready. Otherwise, I could have just ordered at the restaurant instead of planning a pickup!!! In the end, I waited another 14 minutes. This delay pushed back my other last min errands, and my guests ended up arriving before I could get home. What made it worse was the attitude the restaurant showed .. basically "take it or leave it"with no care at all about my time. I would have liked if they could have made this clear on the call previously that they would make the order when I arrive to keep it fresh and then I would have planned my day likewise and not to place small catering orders 24 hours in advance!!! For me, customer service matters just as much as the food. I am not complaining about the food quality at all. Other than owning up to their mistake if they had forgotten, they displayed a "do not care" attitude to protect the quality of their food. Sadly, this experience made me feel bad and ruined the rest of my day. I would definitely visit the restaurant but never place any catering orders going forward. read more

My entire experience here was bad, starting with the clerk who couldn't figure out how to make change for a cash payment. I ordered the gyro sandwich, and at the clerks suggestion made it a meal. I requested iced tea, which they normally have, and it was out. I switched to lemonade, which was all sugar and not much lemon taste. The gyro sandwich presentation was attractive, but I'm practical. It was wrapped in foil and all the tzatziki sauce was at one end, not distributed along the entire sandwich. The gyro meat was entirely chopped into small (1/2") pieces, perfect for falling out the end of a folded bread like pita bread. The worst was the pita bread which was less than 1/4" thick and split apart all along the bottom, forcing me to finish my sandwich with a fork. I'd likely won't go back here again. It was an impulse stop because I was shopping nearby. If I was really jumping for gyros, I'd go to Mr. Gyros on Metcalf, just a half mile away. Sorry, I usually try to find something good to say, but there just wasn't anything here today. read more

Excellent food made with heart, soul, grit, and love for the cuisine. Everything tasted so clean and fresh. The real baba ghanoush and regular baba ghanoush were amazing. This place is a real gem. read more

Hummus and Pita - Mediterranean Near Me - Overland Park, Kansas

If you're looking for authentic and delicious Mediterranean food in the Kansas City area, Hummus in Pita in Downtown Overland Park is a must-visit! From the moment we walked in, the cozy atmosphere and welcoming staff made the experience feel warm and inviting. We started with appetizers--of course, their house-made hummus and pita (some of the BEST I've ever had), a refreshing Fattoush salad, and flavorful, crispy kibbeh. Everything was fresh, well-seasoned, and clearly made with care. For mains, we sampled a little bit of everything: * The roasted garlic butter half chicken with rice was juicy and packed with flavor * The loaded shawarma fries were indulgent and so satisfying * The Gyro Hero was freshly made and delicious * And the mixed kebab platter gave us a great taste of their grilled specialties--every bite was amazing! We couldn't leave without dessert, and I'm so glad we didn't. The baklava was flaky and perfectly sweet, but the real show-stoppers were the Date Shake (so smooth and rich!) and their newest dessert, "Date Me Sweetly"--a heavenly mix of ice cream, baklava, and date. Absolutely divine! Overall, Hummus in Pita is a hidden gem serving up fresh, flavorful Mediterranean fare that hits the spot. Whether you're a local or just passing through, it's definitely worth checking out! Follow me on Instagram and TikTok to see full video of my experience - NEYAN VENTURES read more

We found this thanks to TikTok. It was soooo good. The place and its decorations are super cute. Our group had: Gummus (spice gyro meat with hummus), Halloumi Sticks, Chicken Shawarma, Falafel, Arayes, and a date shake. We loved everything. My husband mentioned to the guy up front that if he had room at the end he was coming back for a date shake. When he eventually went back to order it there guy had it already made and said, "I knew you'd be back." Mind blown. I definitely think you should go read more

Just can say best place and best cooker mamathey are awesome and nice people clean and perfect place and also halal

Casual place, order at counter and go to table. Falafel was delicious. Gyro meat was so freaking good. Hummus was good but not as good as Holy Land which is the standard by which I judge all other hummus. Dessert was not great. Will def be Back for more gyro meat. Staff was super friendly. No alcohol but not unusual for a middle Eastern place. read more

The food was very good, and one could almost imagine it was home cooked using family recipes, which it probably was. The service was excellent. The ambience was good. We will definitely go back. (For those long familiar with Downtown OP, Hummus and Pita occupies the space formerly the home of The Snack Shack. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.) read more

I'm a big Mediterranean foodie and when I saw this driving around downtown OP I knew j had to stop by. When I was greeted I was met with a delicious sample of their homemade hummus. Honestly, this was probably some of the best hummus that I've tried around Overland Park. I also got to try their Shawarma wrap and their traditional gyro. I loved the wrap, but I was not a fan of the pickles so next time I would probably ask for no pickles. The gyro was so overfilled I couldn't fit it all in one bite, definitely worth your money! They also have a few options for dessert that I'll have to check out next time because I ate WAY too much. Overall I absolutely loved my visit and can't wait to come back for dessert and to grab some more of that homemade hummus! read more

Great food and great hospitality! This one has been on my list for a while because of its great location. I drive past it all the time but finally decided to stop in and I was not disappointed! The location is adorable right next to the park in downtown op. Perfect for a casual date night complete with a walk around the park after. The staff was very nice and even let us sample some hummus before ordering. I tried the baba ganoush for an app and it was delicious! I then dug into a wrap and a gyro. They were both amazing! Next time I think I would try the gyro plate because I am a messy eater and it would be easier to dig into than a typical gyro. I will definitely be back to enjoy more fantastic hummus and try out some new things! read more

Ok, ok, ok. You always are a little skeptical when you see a place with a five star rating for a couple hundred reviews!?? For instance, can the place really be that good? Well, I could tell you that when we got here and got out of the car, You could smell the food! So good! Even Outside it was awesome, and we got excited. You open the door to find customers already lined up inside, but the register worked quickly to get through their orders. I think the lamb and beef are both great, and although I don't love chicken, my wife had their chicken Shawarma and it's really good you have to the hummus plate, and get the tabbouleh salad together. Dip your food in the hummus, then dip it in the tabbouleh salad, thank me later. The food is so good. It feels guilty, but it's not bad for you, I feel good after. I really wish I'd take pictures before, but at least you could see from the plate that Im a huge fan now! read more

Hummus and Pita - If we were at home and not in public, I would've licked both these plates clean! Hahahahaha - Mediterranean Near Me - Overland Park, Kansas

We ordered catering from here for my Grandpa's 100th birthday party and it was absolutely incredible. We had the party at the carriage house in the park directly next door to the restaurant which made for easy delivery. Our guests went back for seconds and thirds and couldn't stop raving about the amazing flavors in each dish! We ordered platters of beef gyro, chicken shawarma, rice, vegetables, greek salad, hummus, and pita. Medium platters of each item was plenty for 30 guests. The owner was so kind and such a pleasure to work with. We are beyond grateful for the food and hospitality. My grandma was Greek and so this was a special way to honor her at gpa's birthday party. We will be back on our next visit to KC! read more

First time trying this restaurant. Got takeaway. Shawarma chicken was dry. Hummus was dry and just average. "Grilled vegetables" were basically sandwich toppings steamed/grilled(?) and not worth eating. I didn't bother going past a few bites as I'm trying to lose weight. (Luckily, my husband is frugal so the food won't go to waste - he'll have it for lunch or something.) We were told by the proprietor, "You'll be back." Unfortunately, that is incorrect. There are several other Mediterranean restaurants in the KC area that outshine this establishment. read more

Amazing! First off, I must say I'm hesitant to try Mediterranean food anywhere. But this place was AMAZING. I got a chicken Shawarma plate with rice, salad, and sauce on the side. Then I got the baba ghanoush motabel with pita. The service was fast, friendly, and great! The owner was so nice and restaurant itself is clean and so well maintained, I love the home feeling walking into this restaurant. I would definitely recommend anyone to support a small business, especially Hummus and Pita! read more

My wife and I were in town for the weekend and this was our first trip to Hummus and Pita. What a great experience. We were greeted by the owner that truly loves what he is doing.

While dining here, alot of patrons came in for pickup or dine in and it was great to see the owner greet everyone the same way and offering samples. The food was great but even greater to see someone care about customers and loving what they do!! A++++ We will be coming back when in the area. Thank you for a Quality experience !! read more

My wife and I went here with friends on a Thursday night. Not a lot of people were there so seating was easy to find. The customer service was amazing!

Such a delicious locally ran Mediterranean shop!! My family and I stopped by for a casual dinner and we could smell the yummy food as we were walking up to it. The staff immediately welcomed us in and were patient as we took our time looking over the menu. They offer a WIDE variety of options such as gyros, shawarma, baklava, sandwiches, salads, kabobs, and all of the sides like baba ganoush, pita, falafel, tzatziki, fried halloumi cheese, and of course hummus. Of course we had to see if their bold statement of the best hummus in KC was true and let me just say, they are named HUMMAS and pita for a reason! The hummus was so fresh and flavorful, we were scrapping every last bit off the plate with the warm and fluffy pita. My chicken shawarma plate was just as flavorful and perfectly seasoned. The turmeric rice, tzatziki, and side salad were all great additions to my plate. We also got a side of their fried halloumi and it was SO warm, savory, and delicious....think a mediterranean mozzarella stick but even better with a date syrup drizzled on top for the perfect sweet and savory combo! If you are craving classic and bold mediterranean flavors definitely check out Hummus and Pita in Downtown OP! read more

Very friendly staff and clean shop. It was a quick lunch stop for me and I took it to go. The gyro sandwich was alright. It wasn't as fresh tasting as I had hoped. Some of my lettuce was brown and my tomatoes were overripe. The tzatziki was very mild; I was hoping for a stronger flavor. The tzatziki was also only on the top half of my sandwich. read more
