Mr. Pide

I used to frequent Mr Pide a few years ago. I had sleeve surgery so my appetite has shrunk significantly. So it's been a while since I've been back, no fault of theirs (I blame it on my ADHD). Whenever I think about their yummy food it's at a random moment when I'm not nearby or too late and they're closed.So today I finally remembered to swing by. I got my fav chicken donor and took my treasure home. When he handed me my container he said it was nice seeing you again. WHAT?!?! He remembered me!!!! How awesome is that?! Or is it just an indicator that I went there so often before LOL Anyway, I get home and open my container and WOW! So much food! I'd forgotten how much food you get! I've barely made a dent in it so now I have lunch for tomorrow and I'm pretty excited about it.

Mr. Pide was a great experience and I really wanted to give it 5 stars, but I think a few minor tweaks could get them to 5 star quality! To start with the positives, the staff is so welcoming! The cashier quickly noticed that we had not been to the restaurant before and explained the menu options to us very thoroughly. We ended up ordering the beef plates with rice and fries which is right around $20/plate. I will be honest in the fact that the price seemed high at first but when I saw the amount of food that came on the plate, it was DEFINITELY worth it. The meat, fries, rice, and sauces were all flavorful and fresh tasting.Now to pivot to the areas for improvement: the location was hard to find as it looks like an abandoned building with just a tarp sign and a hard to see open sign. More easily identifiable signage could go a long way. Additionally, I personally would prefer an authentic tzatziki sauce as opposed to the garlic sauce they utilize in the plates for a more refreshing flavor. Lastly, I like the meat to be a tad crisped on the edges for texture.All in all, I would definitely recommend this place to others and will be back!

Ordered this as a takeout order. $19 for a dinner order seems pretty hefty however the portion size is plenty and large enough to share with someone if you wanted to split a meal. I ordered the mixed platter which included both the chicken doner and the beef gyro. The meats were both delicious and very tender and were not dry at all, which is a common fear when ordering Mediterranean food. The rice is delicious and comforting. The salad included the perfect vegetables needed to complement the meats with the lettuce, tomato, and onion. The white sauce provided that nice creamy element that blended well with the rest of the bowl. However, I suggest ordering the sauce on the side because the heaviness of the sauce can completely take over the dish as well as make the vegetables soggy, which would eliminate the necessary textual component needed to perfect this dish. The only issue I had with this dish was the red sauce. I found to be heavy in acidic flavor with no spice at all. Spice is another element that this dish needs so I was disappointed with the lack of it. This is a delicious Mediterranean bite! I'd definitely order again however I would make sure that I have the sauces kept separate so I could control each bite. If they can improve upon the spicy red sauce, this could be my new favorite go to chicken and rice spot in the area.

Went to nearby shops and saw this pop up as having 4.8 stars! Kind of skeptical when we saw that it didn't have a real sign and there were no cars there lol but PLEASANTLY SURPRISED! No pictures since we ate so fast, both gyro and chicken combos were delicious and they give you so many fries!

10 stars!!! Mr. Pide was soooo good we couldn't even make it home to eat it! OMG! The sauce was amazing the chicken was amazing the fries were amazing everything was amazing! Definitely my type of Mediterranean!!! Totally reminds me of the food carts in NYC!!!The service was great, while we waited we were served this warm tea! The restaurant is very cozy and clean.The hubby and I will be back very soon! I can't believe I've been passing this place up all this time. Y'all have to try it, you will not be disappointed, I promise!

Excellent food and excellent service plus really big portions. We got the gyro plates. We will be back to try the shawarma!

This place has great food and I'm soooo glad I was able to try this place. I've been wanting to try this place for the longest and I finally did and it was well worth it. athe most important part was the food portions which I really look forward to when it comes to places to eat.

What happened? Mixed sandwiches were super greasy and burnt on a flap-top. Veggies were limp and not fresh. We both had issues after eating this meal. Used to be awesome.

Don't judge a book by its cover. The appearance of the place is extremely divey but the food is addictive and excellent, and the service is fast and friendly.This is anti-health food, massive servings of greasy seasoned food. I don't enjoy Taco Bell but this is probably the same appeal others experience.

We were looking for a good lunch and we found one! The food was very tasty and we were treated to warm friendly service. We will definitely be back!
