    Loaded Chicken Shawarma Fries (Halal), Chicken Shawarma (Halal)
    Brenda Y.

    This is a small restaurant with only countertop seating. I went for lunch to try their shawarma but I am in interested in their nighttime restaurant. It was interesting watching them make it behind the counter. I thought the chicken in the shawarma was a bit dry and lacked flavor. While the fries were a bit on the saltier side but were very filling. I would want to try the supreme shawarma next time but I think the regular shawarma is nothing special.

    Stopped by while walking around Lawrenceville and needed something to eat fast. The chicken shawarma was so flavorful from the seasoning of the chicken, the garlic sauce, and the tangy pickles. There was just one guy working, and he was very nice and helpful in my decision of what to get. It's a very small spot with not a lot of seating, so definitely best for a quick in and out bite. Apparently they have a tapas and wine bar in the evenings, so I would definitely want to come back to check that out.

    The are the best / legit shawarmas around! It's a fast-casual spot and the food is made to order. The store now has a wine bar featuring a large variety of wines from their vendor, alongside a delicious new mezze menu.

    I ordered Pita My Shawarma and had it delivered so I definitely want to try this place again in person. Based on what I ordered and what I received, I think it's slightly overpriced but I'm wondering if it's different in person. I ordered the chicken and rice bowl and it was $16. Fine, but it was a very small container and the portion was definitely on the small size. Almost $10 for a cup of fries was a bit much to me too. Overall, the food was pretty good. It was cold but that's because of delivery. So like I said, I want to try again in person because I'm hoping I'll have a better experience.

    If I could give this place negative stars I would. It was one of the worst dining experiences I've ever had!!! The service was terrible. The young man at the counter was extremely rude and clearly didn't care about customer service. The food was not good either. I had a chicken shawarma salad that had very little chicken and the bacon was so hard you couldn't chew it. The shawarma wrap was very dry and not good either. I definitely don't recommend.

    You can definitely tell that this food is good for you! Very fresh and makes you feel good when you eat it. Showed up at my door and couldn't wait to dig in thanks to insider eats!

    This place looks cute but I was pretty disappointed. There was no AC inside on a super hot summer day. Everyone says it's expensive here and it is for a basic chicken pita wrap since it ended up being $14 for just chicken and lettuce in a pita. I am low fodmap and the food here isn't really that low fodmap friendly. I had the garlic sauce on the side that I didn't end up using. Inside the stale wrap was chicken and lettuce. It had little to no flavor and the chicken was not what you normally get at Shawarma spots I've been to in NYC. It felt more like grilled chicken. It didn't feel like the pita was heated up either, the whole wrap was kind of cold. Definitely have had better shawarma from a cart on the street.

    Food was super bland. I got the chicken and hummus and it was not great. The food had no seasoning and it didn't taste like anything. Service was also not great. Definitely not worth the price either. I got a combo and it was almost 30 dollars for a small portion of essentially hummus topped with a quarter cup of veggies and a few pieces of chicken. On a positive note the outside of the restaurant is cute and the pita was good. I definitely won't come back.

    You walk in and immediately smell deliciousness and can see meat on a spit being made at Pittsburgh's most authentic shawarma. Pita My Shawarma located in Lawrenceville, serving up Lebanese street food, falafel, Halloumi fries, hummus and more. Started as a food truck and has evolved into that plus a storefront. Absolutely incredible food. They have some seating indoors, some outdoors, offer pickup and are available on food delivery services as well. Super clean space, very friendly staff and you can watch them make your meal as the kitchen is exposed. Tried their hummus dip and pita which is fresh homemade hummus with two loaves of fresh pita bread- may be one of the best homemade hummuses I have had! The Chicken Shawarma & Rice is a fresh, hand stacked, & rotisserie shaven chicken over Lebanese rice with fresh veggies and a garlic sauce. This was delicious and the portion was a decent size (I had leftovers)! Had to taste their hand-cut Zaaatar fries- wow were these good. Hand cut fries with sesame, thyme seasoning and kosher salt with a side of ketchup and aioli to dip! Couldn't leave without tasting their Baklava- with an order you get two pieces of this sweet dessert made with filo dough, walnuts, simple syrup and pistachio crumbles. I am jumping on the bandwagon, Shawarma Is Life!!!

    This was my first time trying this restaurant. I'm a big fan of shawarmas in general and had heard from some of my friends that this was a spot worth investigating. So like the food detective I am, I decided to stop by on one of my walks and take it home with me to properly savor it. I was not disappointed. The first bite let me know everything I needed to know. Pairing it with extra garlic sauce was a great decision that I recommend. You can tell the chicken is fresh and spiced very well. I know it's a small thing, but I also appreciate how they heat up the pita bread before assembling the shawarma. It's a small detail but I think it adds a lot of value. This is definitely a spot worth stopping in and grabbing a shawarma to go. I wouldn't say I was particularly inclined to sit in the restaurant. In my opinion, this is a more grab and go type of establishment. Nonetheless, I think it's a restaurant worth trying if you haven't already. 4/5

    Ordered to-go food from here last week. Everything was quick and so, so fresh! I got a salad, hummus and the baba ganoush. Love that the pita they serve is from a local business also!

    Easily the best, THE best shawarma fries I have ever had. The guy at the counter was chill and made the food fast. I could talk about these fries for days. The seasoning, the hummus, the chicken, absolutely phenomenal. Top notch in every field imaginable. Great drinks too. I personally got Mexican coke, but they have a wide variety of other stuff.

    Most artist, they present are new with a small fan base…read more Similar to the improv. I don't mind the small plates of appetizer type portions. I love the intimate concert vibe. Up close to an artist they may need that audience to feel comfortable with performing.

    Avoid this restaurant. They make mistakes constantly on togo orders…read more On day one, I had ordered a bread pudding and paying for it. After waiting 30 minutes for it, they decide to come out and tell me that they are out of bread pudding. It would've been beneficial to know that prior to paying, however, they did not even offer a refund. Instead, they told me they would give me a tiramisu instead. On day two, I placed an order for a salad with a chicken skewer upcharge. Upon getting my order and opening the container, I saw that the skewer was not in there despite being charged $10 for it. The other items here at the restaurant were not good, and I do not recommend this as they don't want to make good quality food. Lobster ravioli is pretty dry and tough to chew. Tiramisu is missing that earthy coffee flavor. Chicken caprese says that it comes with fresh mozzarella, however, they only gave us small circle of cheese on one side of the sandwich (covers about 1/4 of the sandwich). Do not get the truffle fries, they are the exact same taste as the normal fries. Last, the crab and shrimp dip is highly inconsistent. The first day, it was good and actually had pieces of shrimp. The second day, zero shrimp. In the end, this restaurant has several deficiencies that they do not seem willing to resolve.
