Pita Bowl

"Pita Bowl, my friends, took me on a culinary journey that no gyro joint has dared to embark on in two decades. Let me be clear, you won't find many places that offer 100% lamb gyros these days. It's a testament to their commitment to quality that they haven't compromised on using pure, why because mixing beef and lamb is more cost-effective ..Unadulterated lamb. And let me tell you, the difference is impeccable The melt in mouth your mouth-meat textures are crunchy, moist, and seasoned to perfection. The ingredients are fresh, unlike anything I've encountered in ages. The chicken gyro is decent, and the desserts are simply divine. This is a must-try for anyone who appreciates a truly remarkable gyro experience. You won't leave hungry "FACTS"

This is my second time getting Pita Bowl for lunch and it is quickly becoming my new favorite lunch spot! I always order ahead of time and it is always ready within 5-10 minutes of my requested order time. The inside is decent sized with tables and hightop seating. There is outside seating as well. Everything comes out warm because it is made fresh and that translates into the amazing flavor!We have gotten pita bowls both times, one with chicken shawarma and one with shaved lamb. Both meat options were phenomenal, flavorful, and warm at pickup. All the toppings are delicious, many to choose from, and you can get as many as you want with no extra charge! The cilantro potatoes come out crispy and hot, so those are always a great topping. Dipping the warm pita bread in the garlic sauce and tzatziki is another favorite of mine here. Highly recommend and will be back for more lunches!

First time trying this place, and EVERYTHING was phenomenal from the food to the service!! I had a Jerk Chicken & Chimichurri steak bowl..SO DELICIOUS! The young lady who prepared our food was so kind & patient with us. We definitely found our new favortie lunch spot today!

There's a very good reason this establishment is so highly rated. (1) Fresh flavorful options (2) Reasonably priced (3) Good customer service (4) High Sanitation Rating On this particular visit I tried the lamb pita. Most establishments provide a lamb mix (which is fine with me, as lamb can have an overly gamy taste depending on a variety of factors). The lamb is pre sliced, into chunks. I'm cautious about ordering Gyros with lamb, as I find the meat to be a tad too salty. Not the case here. They use a pita that is larger and thinner than I've experienced at other fast casual restaurants. This is a plus, as you receive a larger pita, but it's substantial enough that if you are ordering to go it still maintains its integrity. My only knocks would be the baklava which didn't appear to be fresh, on my visit. The other would be restaurant suggested bowls, wraps, or pitas. Remember, your order is only as good as your imagination!!Mediterranean Fast Casual: 4.4

Pita Bowl in Raleigh is a true find! Here's why I love it:- Affordable prices for bowl- Warm and welcoming staff- A wide range of fresh toppings- Ingredients are fresh- Easy parking and clean, spacious seating options inside and outside- Enough to save some for next day! Can feed 2 people lolThis spot ticks all the boxes for a great meal out. Highly recommend!

"It's really good!" That's what another patron said to me as I sat down with my first bowl of chicken, couscous and fresh vegetables. "How long have you been coming here?" I asked. Her reply: "This is our first time, but we'll be back!" I was convinced before I ever took a bite.I love order-at-the-counter Mediterranean places in the area, and this one gets bonus points for being locally owned. Everything is fresh, and the service is very friendly. It's obvious they have a lot of pride in this little restaurant. The inside is small and unassuming, with just a few tables, but there are several tables on the patio out front, and that's where I always sit. (That's right--I went back!)

Food was amazing! Generous portions. Hot and succulent proteins - lamb, shawarma chicken, chimichurri steak, falafel, and MORE! Fresh veggies and toppings. GREAT fries. Churros were amazing. Just delicious!Service was great! Very friendly and competent staff. So polite! Also very fast and efficient. They worked great as a team. Did not see a single person dragging or without a smile. Just superior all around.Ambience is clean and organized. We'll lit. Indoor and outdoor (covered and shaded) seating available. Music is contemporary, high energy, but not too loud. Parking is easy. Clean restrooms! Could use a coat of paint, otherwise no complaints.Prices are a bit higher, but reasonable - especially given the portion sizes. Looking at around $15-$20 per person for main, sides, drink, and dessert. Most things are big enough to split - though you probably won't want to share! They have a kids menu too!Great spot for lunch or dinner. Highly recommend!Overall, 9.5/10.

Food: 4Service: 5Ambience: 4Date/Time: 1/6/2023 8pmOrder: Wrap w/chicken/hummus/tzatziki/tomatoes, Bowl w/shawarma chicken/hummus/basmati rice/and more, side of roasted red pepper hummusCrowd: emptyThis fast food Mediterranean place is located in the Food Lion shopping center on Leesville Rd just south of I-540. The place is nicely decorated with a small number of table/chairs sitting at the entrance and 3/4 of the left wall lined with a long counter with stools. For some reason they had their ceiling fans going at full speed so it was a bit chilly. Off to the right is the serving counter.Ordered the food online using their website which was pretty easy to navigate, and offered either pick up or dine in. The original choice was to dine in, but with the fans blowing cold air, the decision changed to pick up. The person making the order seemed very meticulous with the order making sure he didn't miss anything. And, yes, everything was made exactly to the order so that helps to know your order will be accurate if you go online.The food was good with the combinations mentioned above. The roasted red pepper hummus was a little heavy on the red pepper and seemed sugary as well. The pita that comes with it is paper thin so putting a glob of hummus on it makes for a challenge to keep it from dropping in your lap. Best to break off a piece and then put the hummus on it. The char grilled chicken was tasty and tender and the shawarma chicken had a bit of dryness to it, but still good.Overall, I would definitely recommend this place for a pretty tasty Mediterranean mix in a bowl, wrap or pita. If you prefer your Mediterranean meal items separated out, I'm not sure they offer it. And, with it mixed, it's hard to compare it to places like Taza Grill or Greek Fiesta. Maybe more comparable to Mezeh.

Yum, delicious and nutritious Mediterranean bowls and sandwiches. After noticing this place while in the plaza about a week ago, we chose to give it a try for dinner. We used their convenient online ordering system to select entrees and desserts. We both chose bowls and baklava. They offer customizable bowls that are easy to design online. Mine included falafel, rice, tzatziki, onions, corn salad, tomatoes, cucumbers, and pickled turnips. The bowl was large, flavorful, and balanced. I followed it up with a sweet, crunchy slice of baklava. The bowls are reasonably priced at $13 each. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and recommend this restaurant to others!

I went back today, got about the same thing, and made sure I took some photos first!Some different ingredient this time: cous cous (aka pearly chimichurri), grilled peppers and onions. I think they will give you extra protein for a little more but really I think the normal serving is great!
