I found this by accident--was staying across the street at a hotel and wanted something light that was also appetizing. My order was ready in under 10 minutes. Prices are great for quality. My falafel that came with a small salad was very filling and packed a lot of flavor. I liked the vinaigrette that came with it, too. Would definitely come back to try the gyros. read more

Pita Fresh - Falafel side salad - Syrian Near Me - Miami, Florida

When I first came to the restaurant, it was really good! 2023-24. But ever since in 2025, it has been mediocre. Each time I come, they are serving me with different utensils, wrapping etc...Nothing is consistent! And the food is going down a bit. At first, they would put a lot of food, but now everything has change. And I love Mediterranean food! I love their salad, rice pilaf, Shawarma etc..It's a shame. There is a sit-down table in the outside as well as inside. The ambiance is mediocre, clean but not fancy. If you're looking for a quick lunch to eat, and you are in the Kendall area, right on 88st: then this place is for you! I will try to come back, perhaps I should make some constructive suggestions... read more

BEST LENTIL SOUP EVER. I wanna start by complimenting their food because it was so dam good. The Greek salad was fresh, perfect account of feta cheese, onions & olives. I'm actually going tomorrow for another order of lentil soup and Greek salad + a side of their peta bread. Now...their customer service is horrendous. The young lady that took my order had horrible attitude. Eyes rolling, attitude in the tone. Usually I wouldn't go back somewhere with bad customer service but that lentil soup was just THAT good. Oh & the restaurant decor can use some TLC. read more

Picked up the Jerusalem Mix ( $20.99 w/ a total of $31.15 with tip) to go from this place on Feb 20th 2025 It consisted of lamb, chicken breast, and boneless thigh, all sautéed with onions and sauce. Portion size was decent and the service was okay. Food could have been a little more flavorful. I'd try this place out again if I ever work in the area again. read more

The beef shawarma wrap is delicious. I always ask for the spicy sauce on the side which really hits the spot. The wrap is a great portion as well but if you are super hungry, get a side of french fries. This is a pick up kind of place. Zero ambiance and pretty dingy inside. Not friendly, even though I go pretty often. read more

Fresh, delicious and they have the best Tahini that I've tasted so far !!! The kibbeh was crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Amazing place and always fresh read more

Nice spot for good Mediterranean food. Their menu offers a lot of options for a diverse palette. I went late at night and they were thankfully still open and opted for the chicken shawarma. There's no where to really sit so it was like picking up delivery. Luckily there was only one other person in the store so it wasn't much of a wait. The chicken shawarma wrap was pretty good and I would recommend if you need something quick and easy. They portions were definitely filling and satisfied my hunger. If I'm in the area I'll stop by again for a quick bite. read more

A small little shop in the same plaza as Jo-Ann's Fabric, TJ Maxx and Guitar Center, but tucked in on the side facing the side street. Like many mom-and-pop place, delicious food at a reasonable price. The grill is right there facing the customers, so you can see your meal being grilled and put together in front of you. They do a lot of take out business, but have a few small tables you can eat in. It's a busy plaza, but on the side they are located, parking spot is not too hard to find. read more

This may be the only place in Miami where you can get a meal for under $10. I usually order takeout (in person, online, or over the phone). I've learned they're not open on Sundays so beware. The gyros are packed full of flavor and toppings. They do not skimp out on portions. read more

OMGOSH! So good! I would have taken a picture if I hadn't been so hungry. I ordered the chicken Shawarma wrap and it was delicious! So full of chicken like literally that was all that was in there beside a bit of lettuce and diced tomato, but mostly it was this delicately seasoned perfectly cooked chicken Shawarma inside a Panini pressed wrap (probably flour) and OMG - amazing! The garlic sauce was divine. Seriously if you're in the neighborhood, this is a great great stop for a Chicken Shawarma wrap, there you go, enjoy! 5 Stars! read more

Small but mighty family shop tucked in a busy shopping plaza. Not the nicest ambiance as there's very limited seating. We always do takeout and food comes in generous quantities at a good deal and is yummmyyyy!! read more

Located in a old strip mall in Kendall you will a literal hole in the wall serving home made Mediterranean food. Pita Fresh has a very extensive menu with all the favorites, but I decided to play it safe and order the gyro pita sandwich and a side of stuffed grape leaves. The pita was served warm with delicious slices of lamb perfectly seasoned. It was topped with lettuce, olives and a special sauce. The grape leaves were also on point bursting with flavor. I have noticed Pita Fresh for a while and I am glad I finally gave it a try. read more

Pita Fresh - Lunch!! - Syrian Near Me - Miami, Florida

Excellent!!! I loved their food soooooo much. The kafta is a MUST PLEASE TRY IT!!! My favorite thing. We got the mix platter $18 and it was totally worth it for the good portion for two people. The chicken and steak skewer were amazing. The seasoning was on pint. The rice with almonds was delicious and the babaganouhh taste was great and fresh. We also got the tabule that we had to take home because we couldn't finish. They have a couple of tables inside and outside but their parking lot is not that big so plan accordingly. read more

Pita Fresh - the front of the restaurant - Syrian Near Me - Miami, Florida

3 1/2 stars. I had been eyeing this place from the road for a while. It's a little shop on Kendall Drive, right after you get off 826, in the Starbucks plaza. My son and I were in need of a quick bite late one night and Pita Fresh was open. There are only a few small tables but they seem to do a lot of take out business Both employees working there were very welcoming and super friendly. Pita Fresh has a large Middle Eastern Menu. We shared Tzatziki Dip to start. The plentiful portion of Dip was fresh tasting and had a nice flavor. My only issue is the pita served with this and with every dish is terrible. It tastes like paper thin cardboard. 14 year old ordered Beef Kabobs. The beef was excellent. Made before our eyes, the meat was succulent and juicy. It came with rice which was also good. I ordered the Falafel Salad. The falafel was also made fresh and was sizzling hot. The taste was a little sweet for me. The lettuce could have been more fresh. Parts of my salad and my son's side salad were brown. I really like aspects of Pita Fresh. It certainly lives up to the "fresh" part of its name. I love how the food is cooked fresh to order. They just really need to serve some fluffy warm pita and better lettuce! I would definitely return for a quick lunch. read more

I was staying across at a local hotel and decided to try them out. Im glad I did cause this is place is AWESOME. The food is very fresh and busrting with flavors. I ordered a Gyro Platter, fries, extra sauces and a bunch of sides. Let's just say I was in a very happy food coma shortly after. I definitely recommend this place to everyone. read more

Syrian food! Yes, this causal place is deceiving- because it looks like a tiny little falafel stand- and it is. But so much more, expertly prepared tabouli, hummus, grape leaves and more. We loved it. Ask for Anival the charming and talented Head Chef. He made my tabouli in front of us- ingredient by ingredient- I've never seen that before and it's worth the drive just to see a true artist like him at work. Excellent, very casual place and we will be back soon. read more

Good food , bad ordering service and definitely no Ambiance It's fine for a lamb gyro , flavor is good , portion also read more

This mom & pop shop is one of my favorites to grab & go. Their chicken schwarma sandwich is one of my favorite dishes in town & their hummus is so delicious and fresh! The location only has a few seats so best to take it to go. read more

I frequent this business a lot given I am walking distance. The staff are really nice to regulars here and the food is good quality. I typically order the Chicken Shawarma Platter or Chicken Kabob Platter, and the chicken consistently comes out juicy and flavorful. Their tabbouleh is delicious as well as their falafels. They always give me a reason to come back here :) read more

We love Greek food and I can tell you this was a great spot for a fast bite. We both ordered the Lamb Gyros with French Fries. You will not be disappointed in this gyro, it was truly packed with meat. Unfortunately, the fries we barley warm and did not taste fresh. The staff is nice, friendly and greets you with a smile. We will definitely go again. read more

On entering, seemed a nice little takeout Syrian place with various pita sandwiches and platters. I ordered the falafel pita sandwich and a side salad. The falafel was pretty good, as was the pita. It had lettuce, tomatoes, pickles and onions along with sauce. The pita was warmed and slightly crispy. I didn't like the lettuce.... on both the sandwich and the salad it was very bitter. And, the tomatoes were slightly un-ripe. They also didn't remove the stem top from the tomatoes, so the unchewable bit took away from the experience of eating it. I ended up not eating much of the salad, and removed part of the tomatoes from the sandwich and salad. Also, I deal with an allergy to corn syrup, and was disappointed that the only beverage options with the lunch combo were canned sodas with corn syrup. I opted for a cup of water. They did give me a break on the price, which was nice. I was handed a cup and went to find the water and ice dispenser around the corner from the bathrooms. The dispensing unit has ventilation fans covered with thick dust, and rust running down by the ice outlet... it opted not to have any ice... just room temp water. All-told, it seems like there's a bit of a lack of attention to detail here. read more

Pita Fresh - Counter and menu boards - Syrian Near Me - Miami, Florida

If you are looking to eat someone else's hair , this place is the place for you. If you are like me and the idea of that grosses you out, you should keep looking. My husband has been wanting to go to Pita Fresh for months. We ordered take out last night and really wish we had not. They forgot to pack the hummus we ordered and paid for, so we can't speak to its quality. We will not return to try it, though, because there was HAIR in our food. And I'm not talking about one that may or may not have been our hair. It was small brown curly hairs that several of us (four adults together). found in different food items. We didn't get one thing we ordered but this review is based on what was in our food and should not have been there. We have leftovers that we will be throwing away. read more

My brother recommended this spot to me since I am a Mediterranean food aficionado and it did not disappoint! I placed a large order with a variety of options because I wanted to try it all. I ordered both the chicken and lamb shawarma platters, falafel, hummus, tzatziki dip, taboule, Greek salad, rice, and their pita. All were amazing options. Their falafel was very good. All the food was fresh, hot and ready when I arrived to pick it up. Definitely would recommend! read more

This place is the real deal and probably the best shawarma place in Miami!! We ordered chicken and beef shawarma. Our meals came out quickly, all meats were juicy and well seasoned, and at high quality. Their garlic sauce was the BEST! The sandwiches were big and have a lot of depth to it, with the taste so authentic that you will actually think you are eating the real thing in the Middle East! These people did an absolutely fantastic job and I cannot wait to try something else on the menu. Overall, great place to go and the people working were very fun to be around. It is an insane value for your money. Definitely I will be back again soon and it's absolutely a great place to check out. read more

It's refreshing when the food, the service and the convenience all merge into one heck of a nice combo. We were visiting and wanted Lebanese. Boy did the Pita Fresh deliver on all points!. The rice... on its own it's an absolute winner.. the beef shawarma was good, the tabule! I've never had more fresh and well balanced tabule ever. The sauces were great as well. All in all we enjoyed every last morsel of everything we ordered. Did I mention the rice? You just gotta try that rice! read more

Quick rundown: Food Quality: average Customer Service: poor Cleanliness: below average... Overall ambiance: average Experience: poor Review Of the Full Experience: How does it take something around one hour to make one gyro platter and one beef shawarma platter, you ask? well: From the moment we walked to dine-in [VERY hungry, I might add], to the moment we walked out with our now-take-out, something around an hour had passed. Why? well, because they took our order at 8:35 pm, but did NOT print the ticket until 9:09 pm, when I finally asked if our order was going to take much longer. That's a 34-minute delay JUST to get the order to the cook... and then we got home and, in addition, they had messed up mine... [We were planning to dine-in, but after such a long time, we just told them to pack it up to go] I believe this probably was their way of seeking payback in a passive-aggressive kind of way, but I do think you should never do that to a customer... But let's rewind, because for this to make sense, you need context: We got out of work-out. Tired. Hungry. Pain all over. Checked out Yelp for places nearby. The list was massive, but we chose Pita Fresh, which had pretty good reviews and was nearby. The place very small, so it was packed, there were two customers waiting for their orders, but everyone else is already eating, so the line was fast enough to order our food. We had a choice of two sides. I ordered a Shawarma plate with babaganoush and ASKED THE DEPENDANT if the order included pita bread or not. If it didn't, I'd order pita for the babaganoush, but if it did, I'd have liked a different side. He answers no, and adds a side of pita. My girlfriend, Mar, ordered a gyro platter with hummus and pita. Long story short: the platters include a pita, so we could've ordered something else. Since dinner is Mar's treat, I go find a table while she pays... there was only one empty table, but there were no chairs. The cashier told me there were two outside, so I got out of the restaurant, grabbed them (yes, those next to the ashtray), got them into the restaurant... the cashier helped on this last part. Warning: look before you sit: I almost fell down when I sat because one of them was broken. By that time enough customers had left that I could get another chair. We sat at the table and waited for a while. The cashier called Mar to the counter and then he seemed to have forgotten why. She came back to the table, puzzled. We're already about ten minutes in. Another while passes. The cashier calls her again. She approaches the counter. I'll be the first to admit it sounds as if it could have been better handled: all I heard was her saying "why should I pay more for your mistake?" and the cashier explaining that he made a mistake and charged less than what he should. We are already hangry. The food is nowhere to be seen, and just now they realize the undercharged? So, she complaints and sits again. No other customer has received their order either, so we keep waiting. One. Then two costumers out with their stuff. They were there before us, we should be next. I'ts already been about 20-something minutes. And we wait... We ask them to change our dine-in order to take out... and we wait... and we wait... And then, another customer gets her order. Wait!, she came AFTER us. Now I stand up: "Hello!, is our order taking much longer?" Cashier: "no, it's already been prepared, it just has to be put in the boxes". He talks to the cook. The cook screams back at him. They both begin arguing loudly. I only speak Spanish and English, so I don't know what they're saying, but they are obviously angry. Midway through the argument, the cashier PRINTS the ticket and the cook STARTS preparing the food. We're around 45 minutes in, and the cashier offers us a free tiramisu with his apologies: says that's how "made to order" places guarantee their food is fresh (we didn't really buy the apology by then, specially, because the anger in his eyes was noticeable, though I don't know if directed toward the cook, or toward us, or toward himself for "forgetting" to print the ticket). We finally took our stuff and went home. Did I mention I ordered babaganoush? Well, both platters came with hummus. And one that, though wasn't bad, had way to much tahini in it. As I said, it also brought a pita, so our second side could've been anything else... but the pita it brought was UNDER the meat, so it was an inedible moist mush anyway. Both meats were fine, as were both un-needed side-dish pita portions. The tiramisu was a bit sweet, but overall the best thing they offered. This is not a place I will go again. I understand anyone makes a mistake (if that was the case), but this sounded to me more like petty revenge (me, personally, would've probably paid for the difference at the start, though I did not hear HOW the guy requested it, so maybe he deserved the "no"). This was a poor experience from top to bottom. read more

Love love love this place!!! This is one of my favorite go to spots when I'm lazy and just want to stay home and not cook. They are quick, easy and cheap. They have the best gyro platters with 2 side, tons of meat, a pita and sauce. There kibbeh is delish as well as their gyros. I go here once or twice a month and they never disappoint. If you like Mediterranean food...you have to try this place out!!!! read more

This restaurant was across the street from our hotel, so the convenience aspect was nice. It was clean and the staff was what you're expect from teenagers. I ordered a lamb gyro and fries . The food was what you expect. Pita from a bag, brown lettuce, and rotisserie meat. The flavor was good but the price for what you get was off. $9.50 for a quote small gyro and $4.50 for a small paper bag of cold fries. The if I were at the same hotel with out transportation, I'd try again. read more

I was shocked when I realized I'd never reviewed my go to fav fast food choice. It's so good! The shawarma platter is probably my favorite. The mixed grill is great. All of the salads rock. I love the baba ghanouge (eggplant dip) and the humus. The rice with almonds is another favorite side. They are fairly fast, and there's always parking at the Greenery Mall. And yes..the food is always pita fresh! read more

I can't say enough about this little hole in the wall. It was getting kind of late and the BF was hungry so we decided to check this place out. I just ordered a fatoush salad, which was really good, and he ordered baba ganoush, hummus, tabbouleh, grape leaves and falafel. I have to tell ya...this was the best I have ever had. I am not usually a tabuleh lover because it is usually way too tart. This one was fresh and dressed perfectly. The falafel was crunchy on the outside and most importantly not dry on the inside!! My mouth is watering as I right this review. Cannot wait to go back. read more

I ordered the lamb gyro sandwich from Pita Fresh via GrubHub twice. In the picture on the menu, it shows that fries are included. I did not receive fries with a previous order. When I placed my order today I ordered the exact same thing as before but, this time on the special instructions, I asked to please include my order of fries on the side. When I received my food, once again my fries were not included. Of course I was upset but decided I would call them after eating because I didn't have much time left on my lunch break and I was starving. When I opened my gyro I saw that they had thrown 4 French fries inside of it! Pita Fresh, whether you include fries or not with your orders should be made clear on your menu. But that's not nearly as important as being courteous, respectful, and helpful towards your customers. Your employees' actions are a blatant representation of your business. I enjoy your food but I won't pay to be disrespected. I will not be ordering from your restaurant again. read more

Finally the authentic taste. Was not planning to eat there, I saw the street sign on a detour driving back home and I stopped by. I know and love Mediterranean food I couldn't resist. Honestly but I would have never find out about this little place and the plazza itself is not really attractive. Don't go for the fancy environment because it's not fancy at all.

Pita Fresh - Business card - Syrian Near Me - Miami, Florida

TLDR - a good place to stop by for a fast shawarma/gyro fix Pita Fresh serves up a shawarma platter or gyro that is perfect for a quick lunch break. I've been here a couple times now and I think they on average overcook the meat a little bit. Nonetheless, I keep coming because it's good, it's fast, and the staff is friendly. The platters are also a lot of food. They serve the meat between two thin pita slices so you can eat it sandwich style, and you get two sides. read more

If you like the smell of cigarettes and questionable santition, this is your place. Been here a few times, and each time, the owner is outside smoking a cigarette, then comes inside without washing hands to prepare food. Him and the other cook put on gloves but then touch things that were just touched with dirty hands like his phone. Gross. The whole place stinks like an ashtray. I wonder what other practices are done in the prep area outside of guest view? read more
