    This is a great place for healthy choices. While it is a bit on the pricier side, the portion sizes are generous. I miss the lentil rice and would appreciate more veggies as their options; however, the quality of the meats and current selections are still good and usually very fresh! I visit this location pretty often because the staff is friendly and always greets me with a smile. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is quiet, and they play good music.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    This was my first time at this establishment. I had craving for Cava but didn't want to drive ~30 mins so Pasha was perfect. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Employees were friendly, interior was clean and everything looked fresh.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I chose the braised lamb which tasted great and I was happy with the overall experience. Portion size was pretty good for the price. Certainly will be returning when I'm in the mood for Mediterranean and I'm in the area.

    Dolmas- menu board is wrong,  it says 4.99 for 2. We got all 4 for 4 dollars.

    Okay the service here is top tier for a "chipotle" type ordering experience. Specifically because of this amazing gentleman who helped us yesterday (Tuesday around 4 45 pm) he was so kind and patient. However, the food was pretty disappointing. The dolmas, as huge and flavorful as they were, were so dry. The Naan bread was rock hard (but they were more than happy to swap it out for us). My bowl was very flavorful- but the rice was cold and chicken was dry and cold. It was hard to enjoy. Nothing was fresh. This all goes to say. Don't go between 2 pm to 5 pm As we were leaving, the line was freshly restocked with fresh steaming hot food. They put on nice music. But if you get there before then, you get what's been sitting out. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambience is decent for a casual spot, we tried sittinh there yedterday instead of just taking it to go.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But I'd just take it to go so I can heat up my food next time. Still 3 stars because the times I go when everything is fresh are what I kept in mind and that team member was nice.

    Great food just kind of expensive for the portion sizes but other then that a great meal. Had amazing service while ordering it was our first time and the workers helped out tremendously. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very clean and tidy, wish there was more people here eating but most people took their order to go.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Chicken naan. It is delicious!

    Traffic from hell, but I was determined to get my Pasha fix. Turns out, my desire for rice with my wrap was a bridge too far. Who knew? Apparently, it's a forbidden combination, even if you're willing to pay. I have had this in the past. The manager's "no rice" lecture definitely took the edge off my Mediterranean craving (in a bad way). I am now concerned that I got the server in trouble. Pasha Express, it is my wrap. It just rice.

    First time trying this place! Ordered online got two entree bowl and a side of falafel. The meat (gyro and chicken shawarma) was well seasoned! Loved how there's a lot of healthy options to fill your bowl! 15.99 might not be worth it for someone how's not a fan of veggies/toppings. The falafel was a bit hard for me, my son had hard time biting it. Would still come back for quick healthy option to-go mediterranean food!

    We have never tried Mediterranean food before so I ordered 2 Entree Bowl x's 2 @ $13.99 each plus extra's since we were visiting and not sure if or when we would get a chance again. AND For Take out/Delivery everything was Really good, fresh, and rememberable!! Favorite meat was Gyro Beef and Chicken Shawarma where my least favorite but still good Chicken Kabobs a bit dry but good flavors Falafel was ok but dipped in Pasha Dressing (golden Italian) even better Basmati and Turmeric Rice were Tasty, cooked perfectly, good mouth feel to them You get to pick 5 veggies per bowl and there were Plenty (around 15+) to pick from including Tabbouleh Salad, Chickpea Salad and feta cheese Tzatziki-Hummus-Garlic Aioli Pasha Dressing (golden Italian) Walnut Baklava - flakey not soggy but deliciously honey oh so sweet Ok I think I touched on most of it. Yes I will go back and get it again!!

    I decided to order from Pasha Express as my favorite restaurant for take home food is closed on Sundays. I downloaded the ChowNow App to my phone and made my selections for a wrap. We are seniors, so we often share an entree. We both like the gyro wrap with a variety of veggies added. In the app, a side item is listed as Required, so we chose fries. when I goot to the restaurant, I let them know I was picking up a to-go order and gave my name. They handed me a bag and I started out the door, then realized the fries were not in the bag. when I asked for the fries, I was rude told the owner removed the fries from a promo that ended yesterday. If a business is going to offer something in their app, they are obliged to give it until they fix their app. If I knew it wasn't included when I ordered, I would've gladly paid for the fries, but who Would know to order the fries separately when it's required in the app. I didn't even get an apology from the employees about the order. I won't be going back to Pasha Express.

    Not the best, but not the worst either. This location only offers buildable bowls and wraps. To start, you pick a base of basmati rice, cranberry rice, biryani rice, or mixed greens. Entree choices include: gyro, falafel, chicken shawarma, fried cauliflower, beef shawarma (+$2), chicken kabob ($2). You can choose either one or two entrees for the bowl, while the wrap comes with one entree. Then, you pick additional toppings: beets, chickpea salad, feta cheese, kalamata olives, lentils, mixed leafy greens, onions, pepperoncini, pickles, shirazi salad, taboulleh salad, tomato. Finally, finish your bowl or wrap with a sauce: tzatziki, hummus, smoked eggplant, spicy hummus, pasha bbq, garlic aioli. The entree bowls also come with your choice of pasha chips or naan. I got a one-entree bowl with biryani rice, gyro, beets, chickpea salad, lentils, pepperoncini, shirazi salad, taboulleh salad, and smoked eggplant sauce. The flavors of the bowl were good, but the ingredients did not taste the freshest. The biryani rice tasted old and dried out. There was a generous amount of gyro, but it was also a bit dried out. The smoked eggplant sauce had a nice consistency but tasted more burnt than smoked. The naan that comes with the bowl was fluffy but far from authentic. I also got the walnut baklava ($3.99), which had a nice filling and sweetness. However, the phylo layers were stale and did not have the lightness or flakiness a typical baklava has. For a fast food type restaurant, the baklava tasted better than I expected. It is a bit pricey for the size (about a 4" x 4" square). At their current price point ($9.99 one-entree bowl, $12.99 two-entree bowl) and quality, I will not likely return to this location of Pasha. I would want to try the food from their other locations that aren't "express" to see if the food quality is better there.

    Smells really good in here

    This is a really good spot to catch a quick bite to eat. The food smells amazing and the staff is friendly. They make sure you get what you need and get it hot. It's kind of a "make it in front of you" type set up so you know they are being sanitary. If you don't want to take out, but you are still not quite comfy with dine-in either, they have a great patio spot with a few tables outside. It's right on the edge of the parking lot tho so you have to be ok with the cars going by and in and out. Nice clean restaurant with great prices and friendly service. Doesn't get much better than that!

    One Entree Bowl*
    Lanai C.

    I ordered an entree bowl with a base of cranberry rice and falafel for protein. Service was fine. They have a nice shaded outdoor area to sit and eat. The bowl was comparatively smaller than bowls I've ordered from similar places for the same price. The variety of toppings was nice but I would have liked more of each. Specifically, more than 3 slices of cucumber. Also, the cranberry rice was unexpectedly under seasoned.

    Lunch!
    Jaymie-Lyn D.

    Good food and healthy options with mildly exotic flavors to make you feel transported to another part of the world for a lil bit. Love all the options and free add in's when building my bowl. Today, I enjoyed a Chicken Shawarma bowl with biryani rice and fresh additions of garlic sauce (I can't NEVER get enough of this delight), hummus, tzatziki cucumber dip, baba ganoush, cucumber salad, tabouleh salad, feta. I'm in heaven! The only thing that didn't taste fantastic was the baba ganoush (smoky eggplant dip). It was a little too thin and sour for my taste. But believe me, I ate it. Lol! Prisoners don't get left behind on my watch. Er... I mean, my plate. The staff is also quick, efficient and friendly. The manager came over to check on me whilst I gobbled up my lunch. I asked the cashier about a rewards program and he explained that they do have one and while he rang me up, the register asked me to input my phone number. As soon as I sat down, I received a test message from Pasha's reward program to register. Awesome! I love getting rewarded for my loyalty and business! Go check it out! This location on Culebra never disappoints. Now, let's hope their baklava is as delightful as it looks! Saving it for dessert later at home!

Piped butter cookies, rose-dotted squares dusted with cardamom, delicate filled rolls -- it's the kind of display that makes you order dessert before you've even sat down. And then the food.
