Love absolutely everything about this place! I got the middle eastern plate with gyro and my friend got the beef shawarma plate and we both thoroughly enjoyed both. Super flavorful and the hummus was phenomenal. We also got their homemade lemonade and it was 10/10. Service was wonderful and everyone was so kind. There is plenty of seating indoors and they also have a market inside where you can buy snacks and other things. Note that this place is cash only. I didn't see an ATM inside either. read more

Loved everything about this spot. Tucked away in a simple little strip of stores, half grocery and half restaurant and a whole lot of family. We stopped by on our way to ATL for an early lunch and to try this famous spot known for big and fresh flavor. We got there a bit before everything was available but we still opted for the beef plate with humus, vegetables, fresh potatoes bread and a salad. The pita bread was hot out of the oven and was amazing alone or wrapped around tender well seasoned beef and hummus. The gentlemen that took our order was so kind to answer all of our questions and tell us about the family business, and recommend mint tea and spices to try. He even gave us a dessert to try, cashew fingers! Very delicious and light. When we finished and started to leave, I pulled out a few dollars for a tip. The older gentleman stopped by the table and insisted we not leave a tip and was happy we enjoyed the food. Can't wait to come back and try more of the menu and to say hello to this amazing family owned business. read more

Pita House - Middle East Plate w Gyro - Combo of hummos, falafel, & Gyro - Middle Eastern Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

I have been going to this place for at least 20 years and, though infrequently, every time I go it is wonderful. I visited two days ago and had the Middle Eastern plate. Everything tasted so good. I wish I lived next-door to this place and I would eat it every day. The little grocery shop inside has so many good options. The service was great and everyone was super helpful. You can tell that they really put a lot of love in their business and you can feel that they are thankful and love their job. I love it. I love it. I love it read more

I was lucky to go to Pita House on Christmas Eve (they closed at 3 PM for this holiday). I ordered the Middle East Plate w/ Gyro Combination of hummos, falafel and Gyro (Blend beef and lamb) and a cup of their homemade lemonade. This establishment is still cash only! When I paid and got my change, I offered to tip and was told they don't accept any. Instead, their cashier was cute to say I can spend my change on their desserts, which made me smile. I cannot wait to return! read more

This is some of the most fresh food you will get in Greenville. Everything is great here. Lamb and chicken alike, salads, all their desserts. And you have to respect the cash only for a local business. Always treated so well when I eat here. Vibes are great and it's usually crowded (for good reason)!!! Love coming here. read more

My family and I had the pleasure of The Pita House cater my father's funeral, and I can't say enough about how incredible everything was. The food was nothing short of outstanding. Authentic Middle Eastern cuisine full of flavor, freshness, and quality. Every dish felt homemade, from the perfectly fresh seasoned meats to the delicious sides and best falafel in town. Zohair and his family went above and beyond, not just with the food but with their warmth and hospitality. You can tell this is a family business that takes pride in what they do, and it shows in every detail. If you're looking for amazing Middle Eastern food from a family that genuinely cares, this is not only a restaurant, but a part of a community that is truly respected and loved. Bonus- Check out their market while you're there! read more

Disappointed in the BLAND food! Either the food is not authentic or the owner dumbed it down to satisfy the locals? Ordered the chicken shawarma sandwich. Place makes their own pita bread so I was excited to try it. Unfortunately the pita fell apart and I ended up with a pita SALAD. Chicken was real bland and lacked flavor. Ended up drowning it with sauces at my table. Place is casual. Business is half restaurant and have store. Cash only and they passed the savings on to the customers as prices are reasonable. Unfortunately the food is just not very good! Won't be back. read more

Pita House - Middle Eastern Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

I am giving a five star because the food is what keeps people coming back. A restaurant can be a hole in the wall but if the food is great then that's what really matters! If I were to give stars on the parking lot and the "cash only no cards" then it would be less than 1 star. I love the lunch service with a fresh pita. The red chili sauce I could turn up the bottle and drink it. The dolmades are to die for. Small but the best tasting I've ever had. I've searched all over town for good dolmades, pita house's are the best. If you've never eaten them before you're in for a treat. And the baklava is so far the best in town. read more

Delicious food, casual dining, decent prices, high quality and fresh food. The staff is always friendly. Always a great experience at Pita House. read more

Very authentic, found in a simple market setting offering traditional imported items (Israel/Palestine). Quick service and many of the combo dishes served with hummus, pita, and two sides. The baba ghannouge was great. read more

I was told to try this restaurant by a few mutual acquaintances. Little did I know that my children and I feasting on the delicacies they offered would make us viral; we really just wanted to try a highly regarded restaurant locally! I cannot rave enough about everything, especially the falafel, but over 80k views and 700 comments on one TikTok have declared this the epitome of Greenville & community. Rated top in the city by some and unknown by others, I cannot state how much my kids and I and friends love this new to us discovery. The hummus is just Take Cash! read more

My wife took me to this restaurant for the first time. I'd heard that's a great place to eat from all my friends so I had to go try it. They have quite an extensive menu but make sure you have cash with you. I kind of got a little overzealous and ordered way too much then I could ever handle on any given lunch time. But I didn't regret it as the food was delicious and the staff were very kind. It seems like there's a lot of regulars to this restaurant. read more

I've been going here for several years and the food is so delicious! They have amazing customer service and are always consistent!

Really good. THEY ONLY TAKE CASH!! This was my 1st visit and I had no clue so I pulled out a $100 bill because that's all I had they licked at me like I was crazy cause it was just me but he took it. The only thing I was disappointed in was the gyro did not have any sauce with it. read more

Pita House - Vegetable plate is so yummy - Middle Eastern Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

Great food and service once you go by you will continue. Been going for 20 years. Delicious..

The freshest of everything but the pita bread nearly melts in your mouth it's so soft. Even the sauces on the tables are incredible. It's obvious why it's been around since 1988.. the owners care about their food, staff & clients. Next visit will include a trip to the adjacent grocery. Highly recommend!! read more

It is mostly Greek food not Middle Eastern. Very misleading. I wanted authentic Middle Eastern food not Greek.

Pita house, pita house, oh yummy yummy yummy I love this place! It is truly delicious and so reasonably priced. Service is also fast and I love the energetic vibe, especially at lunch time. The tabouli is 'right' according to my Lebanese father and I love the hummus and falafel. My fav spot for a vegetarian lunch. read more

8/10 Gets a bump to 5 just due to the value and nostalgia. As someone who grew up in Greenville, this ever-popular, cash-only eatery has long been a local favorite. During a recent visit, there was a steady stream of eat-in and take-out customers, meaning the line never really died down. The food is very good, though my gyro meat was a tad overdone. I favor the plates over the sandwiches as I think you get a bit more bang for your buck. Generous portions means that you won't go home hungry either way. While I almost always just get a gyro plate while here, I also tried the Kibbeh and Dolma. The Dolma was served hot, which was a bit of a departure for me as I'm used to eating it cold. It was pretty good, as was the Kibbeh, although I don't't think I'd get them again. The Gyro and Falafel are definitely my go-to's here, and I would recommend getting those if it's your first time. read more

I stopped here tonight and could smell the yumminess from the parking lot. Unfortunately they only take cash so I had to make a run to the ATM. I ordered the chicken shwarma and a spinach pie to go. It was pretty quick to receive it and they warmed up my spinach pie. Food was great and plentiful. Very flavorful and worth that run to the ATM! read more

Pita House - Chicken shwarma with hummus - Middle Eastern Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

I am addicted to this place. If I don't go every couple weeks, I go thru withdrawal. I point to the picture I want, pay (only cash accepted), and they bring it to my table. Usually a little line but it moves fast these guys are super efficient. Mediterranean, lamb, beef, chicken. Gyros, shawarmas, honey pastries. They make their own red pepper sauce and the best tahini sauce. There is a connected grocery read more

This place is always an excellent decision. Cash only. Everything is homemade and tastes amazing. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu. We like the grill options. They usually have a dinner special that comes with salad and a drink. You HAVE to get a side of hummus it is the best I have ever had. Also don't forget to use the tahini sauce and red sauce that they make it is soo tasty. read more

Really authentic and homey. Pleasant service and incredible menu to choose from. The pita is fresh and the hummus was great.

We order from Pita House regularly. That in itself should tell you how good the food is. They have the best hummus that I've ever tasted, and the food is always fresh and delicious. I would recommend pretty much anything on the menu, and we absolutely love the kibbi. Just keep in mind that they are cash only, so make sure you have a way to pay read more

Honestly, I dream of the Pita House quite frequently. There are a couple reasons for that... 1. The grocery side of things: they have lots of spices, baking supplies, frozen foods, hard-to-get middle eastern ingredients, and, perhaps most importantly, OLIVES (in bulk!). I have a passion for foreign grocery shops (especially spice shops... am I an emperor if she's past? We may never know) and even though this place seems small, it's quite good and it's probably best for my wallet that I don't live closer. The pitted, oil-cured olives are the best. I put them in everything, salads, pizza, with cheese/charcuterie, plain as a snack. So good. But generally speaking the prices are competitive with other international markets I've been to. Definitely worth a stroll through if you come for lunch someday! 2. The food: I don't think I've ever eaten in the restaurant because it's usually crowded but I've had so much of their food via takeout and love it all. Falafel is great, the lamb and hummus are great, usually served with pita. It's a great meal. I also have a special place in my heart for their baklava (and most of the other sweets haha), so definitely don't skip that if you enjoy dessert. 3. The service: despite the Pita House being packed and busy nearly every time I've gone, the staff are always very kind and have smiles ready to go. That's not something I see at every store and I really appreciate it here. The owner is older and Syrian still works the register in the restaurant and grocery side of the shop. I know a lot of folks in the Greenville area have been to or at least heard a lot about the Pita House, but if you aren't from that area or haven't been yet, I can't recommend it more than I already have! Immerse yourself in a little Arabic culture and eat some good food! read more
