Self ordering
Pat P.

After an appointment we had a craving for Mediterranean food. Pita House was nearby so we tried it. AMAZING!! It's self service so after checking out the menu and reading reviews we both chose the Sami'spita sandwich with the recommended toppings: onion taziki sauce lettuce tomato and feta. The pita bread was soft and fresh and the sandwich is huge! The meat is a combination or beef and lamb. There are several options for toppings. The food came out promptly. We observed many food delivery people coming and going which confirmed that it's a popular place. We look forward to returning soon!

The crispy chicken shawarma is delicious. Good food service. Very nice good energy. Definitely recommend!!

Shish Kabob Special Platter Lamb

Pita House Amazing? Fantastic flavors? Yes. If I need a pick me up at work for lunch and need a delicious yet nutritious meal? Pita House is one of the places I enjoy for my meals. Unfortunately, personally I have not gone in only asked via Uber eats. My family members who have gone there say that the service and ambience is really nice and friendly. As long as I am in Grand Rapids I for sure will order from here whenever it's possible :) Also they are halal :)

Pistachio cinnamon roll

Pita house - Wealthy st. Chicken shawarma Pistachio cinnamon roll Pumpkin spice baklava THE SHAWARMA HITS HARDER THAN MY ANXIETY. Perfectly tender meat, fresh bread, great tasting sauces, and the pickled veggies put it over the top. The pistachio cinnamon roll was also excellent. More pistachio flavor than cinnamon. Frosting was seriously incredible, I hope they make this a regular item. I wasn't a huge fan of the pumpkin spice baklava. It was refrigerated and I'm pretty sure it wasn't baked that day if you catch my drift. Didn't have that iconic flakeyness of phyllo dough. Flavor was a mild pumpkin spice with a bit of nuttiness and butter. I'd try their regular baklava for sure (next time!!!). Definitely coming back here.

We visited Pita House during a family trip, so the entire crew came along. Whereas this is usually a recipe for frustration, as there's at least one person who just can't find anything to satisfy on any given menu, we were not disappointed here! Even the fussy eaters found crispy, tasty meat, creamy and flavorful baba ganoush and hummus and salads. The cafe Arabia - sometimes known as Turkish, Greek, or Macedonian coffee - really hit the spot. I would not think twice about a return visit with a whole gaggle of hungry, fussy eaters.

Samis Gyro Sandwich
Emily K.

Placed a quick online order here for lunch today and it did not disappoint! Super easy to order, ease of access with street parking or their small parking lot, and the food is amazing. They were also super friendly. I ordered the Sami's Gyro ($14) and customized it with tzatziki, garlic sauce, feta, tomato, cucumber, parsley, and sumac seasoning. This might be the best gyro I've ever had, and it was huge!! Tons of gyro meat, great flavor, and they didn't skimp on the sauce either. Would definitely recommend for a quick lunch!

Great meal. I had a platter with hummus, grape leaves, and falafel. The location is great and the east GR vibes are there. Service is helpful and I am always satisfied when I come.

Oh. My. Heavens. For…read morethose that don't know, I will only leave a review if I'm extremely impressed or very disappointed and dissatisfied. I'm a huge snob, even when it comes to dive restaurants. I have resolved to only write positive reviews on places that I believe truly deserve the praise they have earned. This is one of those places. This joint is completely unassuming. Sparse decoration, low drop-tile ceiling, brightly lit (too bright for your usual Mediterranean joint), HDTV menus near the front register... But, does a restaurant need anything other than a great menu and delicious, freshly prepared, well-spiced fare to be an amazing experience? I answer loudly "NO!" This restaurant is wonderful. They serve some of the best Mediterranean food I've had, and I've been many places throughout the US and internationally. Finding this in my own back yard makes me so happy to live in GR. My wife and I split the spicy feta fries, which neither of us could stop shoving in our mouths. Now, a bit about me - I survived a massive heart attack five years ago. Five bypasses. Month in a coma. Six months learning to walk again. I SHOULD NOT BE EATING FRIES!! And yet... I couldn't help myself. Each bite was perfection in crispy potato form. And a heavy garlic presence. The toum is worth it. Completely worth it. Gives Sheshco a serious run for best in town. Not greasy or too "mayonnaise-y." She had the shish tawook ("chicken kabob") and I had a gyro pita. Her chicken was stunningly tender and temptingly well-seasoned. Rice was floral and delicious. Hummus, not quite garlicky enough, but smooth and refreshing. And the Nutella cheesecake was heavy and smooth and wonderful. My gyro was obviously done in-house, same as the pickled turnips ("liyft"). love pickled turnips, and I truly believe that these aren't the commercially available jarred ones. Gyro meat was well-spiced, perfectly tasty and amazingly tender. The service was warm and friendly. Wife and I will be back again...and again. We hope to see you there!! Worth a drive and some time. Bring an empty tummy and get ready to enjoy!!

I work in one of the attached buildings, so my coworkers and I will often head to the food court to…read moregrab lunch. I have noticed that over the past year, this stand has changed at least once, but it's always been a Mediterranean type of casual spot where they make your food in front of you. I wanted a salad recently and saw they had a kale salad on their menu at Damascus. The menu board said it was $5 for a "regular" and $8 for the larger size. I ordered the regular kale salad and asked to add gyro meat. When the order rang up, it came to $15 after tip! I was a little shocked but didn't say anything since I didn't know if maybe he misheard me or the prices weren't correct. Either way, it was a little shocking and I wasn't sure what to expect. I thought he'd make the salad right there, but someone in the back brought out a bag to me. It felt heavy! I opened up the container and had to laugh - it was a massive portion of gyro meat completely covering up the small salad! I did get my money's worth, but it wasn't quite what I was expecting. Either way, the salad itself was delicious. Honestly it was too much meat, even for me (a meat lover), and some of it was a bit dry. I know my coworkers enjoy the bowls at this spot (but they have also mentioned how the price can vary wildly for them) so I may try one of those next time I'm in the mood for something a little healthier.

It's the best gyro place around Grand Rapids since Mr. Gyro closed. My only complaint is their hours aren't always what is posted. We live nearby and will try to stop in for take out for dinner and they haven't been open many of the times we have tried to eat there.

Our host was super kind, helpful with the menu and had a sense of humor. Grape leaves - I believe it was cold if I remember, and it's a softer/mushy texture. The host called it "Turkish Sushi." It was good and different! Appetizers- phenomenal. Fresh, hot, flavorful. We had cheese served on a hot stone, it was beautiful. Nothing was over or under seasoned. Everything was cooked perfectly. Nice fry, nice bake, nice sizzles. Salmon was cooked just right. Calamari was fried great and had a good crunch. Feta borek reminded me of crab cheese ragoons. I love the way it's prepared though, even bites and good flaky crunch. The shell is light and wasn't greasy. Baklava was delicious. Rice pudding was delicious. Drinks were on point. 10/10 will be back again!

Zeytin serves authentic Turkish cuisine along with other middle eastern and American food. A table favourite was the Pepper Delight. Basically, chopped red and green peppers combined with walnuts and tomato. I highly recommend both the Rice pudding and the Fried calamari. Nice big plate I had almost all to myself. The service was friendly and somewhat attentive. My friend, Darius, ordered the Chicken shish kebab and the pita was dry, cold and stale. They immediately returned with fresh, hot, moist bread. The wait for the initial order and drink refills was a bit longer. The dining area is large, yet cozy. The eatery has a very embracing, warm ambiance and it's a great gluten-free zone. The guy that suggested we stop here eats vegan. 01/26
