    Main entrees menu 5/2026 - I tried all kinds of filters on these glossy pages!
    Mike S.

    I read their wonderful transition story as they rebuilt into this venue following personal loss via the pandemic and closure of their campus (Sinbad's) location. We were looking for later eats on a Monday night (a challenge in Tucson) and were happy to learn that this bucket-list restaurant was not only open at 7:30p but it's open 7 days/week 8a-10p with a robust M.E. bfast menu too! Things were winding down (less than half full) and service was excellent and attentive. We opted for one Gyro salad style ($15) and one Kofta Kabab plate ($20). They arrived within 10 minutes with both meats dangling from traditional serving stands (see pics). I had read that the owner came across those on a recent trip to the Middle East and thought they would add a nice touch to her entrees (they do)! The food was delicious - well seasoned meats, soft rice, fresh and crunchy veggies and delicious sauces, including their Tzatziki (yogurt-based sauce). The 4 little falafels ($10) were a bit pricey for the size but excellent - warm with a nice crunch before reaching the soft center. My small critiques are that the music was waaaay too loud and the slices of pita that came with each entree were not warmed. I also think that the quantity of meat (vs other local M.E. restaurants) is on the stingier side. For dessert we were seriously eyeing their popular Dubai chocolate cake but heard they had a fresh batch of Kunafa and we opted for that at a very reasonable $8. It is made with crunchy phyllo dough over a layer of mild akkawi (similar to mozzarella) cheese, drizzled with ghee, baked, and then drizzled with a sweet floral syrup (think sweetened rose/orange water). It's differently delicious and somewhat difficult to find but worth the hunt. This definitely had us leaving on a nice high note and eager to return to try their lamb and shawarma entrees as well as ME bfast. The restaurant is hard to spot - tucked in the back/corner with a prominent "Frida" sign at the top?Parking is free/easy in the large general lot of this gym-anchored strip mall. Small note: there's a 3% charge for credit cards. Also, increasingly businesses are calculating the tip After the tax has been added. It's a minor but nonetheless unconsented-to inflation of the tip. Just fyi!

    Pistachio Baklava - OUTSTANDING!
    Sean K.

    Chicken Shawarma platter is excellent / delicious. Generous portion. Falafel appetizer was excellent as was the Baba Ghanoush. Pistachio Baklava was OUTSTANDING. Service was friendly and professional. Restaurant is very casual, clean. They also have a patio that has beautiful views of the Catalinas. Easy to get to on NE side of Tucson, lots of parking. Recommend.

    Chicken Biryani
    Tzu-En L.

    Came here the first time and I really like their food but the service was not so good. We waited for a long time upon seating and no one brought us the menu. I had to go to the front and grabbed our menu. No one really checked in with us to take our orders and we waited for more than 10-15 min for someone to take our orders after we voiced our frustrations. The service is in need of improvement since no one really check in with us much during the dining. Food: the food is pretty good. We got the baba ghanoush and it is pretty good ! The flavor came together well with a smoky touch. We got chicken biryani, which was diff from other spots that make biryani. As you can see from my picture, I got 2 chicken on top of a bed of rice. The chicken was very well done and perfectly moist and cook. The rice was also very good and moist instead of dried up like Arizona desert. I love this dish and I would get it again. We also got a beef kabob like plate and the meat was also seasoned very well. Overall their food is great with good seasoning that is unique to this spot. I love their food and I would give their food rating a 4/5. However, their service is in need of improvement. I would still come back and try other dishes in hope of better service for the future.

    Amazing food, great service, and a wonderful ambience. The dolma really stood out and was absolutely delicious. Everything about the experience felt warm and welcoming.

    Gyro plate
    Andrea T.

    Food was heavenly! I got the chicken swarma and my husband ordered gyro plate. Service was quick and ambiance very relaxed and casual. Check out my pics- great presentation! 4.7 stars

    Falafel plate
    Windy T.

    Stumbled on this while looking for a lunch spot before hitting Costco. Was amazing find. It's in the old Frida cafe spot. Very clean. Expansive menu with great hours 0800-midnight. Food and prices excellent. Wish I lived closer!

    Dubai Cake
    Kandy D.

    The entire experience was heavenly. What a cute spot with an amazing view! We were greeted warmly and served hot Iraqi tea in beautiful glasses. We started with the dolma appetizer and it came with a fresh salad and orange slices! Next was the Casa Pita Mixed Grill which had a variety of meats presented on a shish kabob "hanger" dish alongside rice, salad, hummus, pita and tzatziki. Absolutely delicious and enough food for two! We finished the meal with baklava and Dubai cake, both presented with fresh cream on gorgeous dishes. A truly remarkable dinner that we can't wait to experience again! Thank you, Casa Pita!

    Beautiful Dubai chocolate cake

    I ordered the chicken Shawarma and it was delicious. Beautiful presentation also. In addition, I had the Dubai chocolate cake, which was absolutely delicious. I will be back.

    Excellent food, great service. The owner is a longtime Tucson restaurant chef. So glad she's found a new place to continue her fine work.

Try the cabbage slaw, stuffed cabbage, and the meatballs - all beautifully prepared and seasoned perfectly. Highly recommended.

Looking over the menu everything sounded fabulous. The owner took my order and when I asked for the shish kebab he said "not the best". So I asked for his suggestion. He said I would like the meatballs better and that they were lighter. Well I listened and he was right. They treat you like family here and want you to like what they make you. My husband had the goulash and it was also spectacular. The salad before the meal was also a surprise star. Coated in lemon and olive oil and just the right salt and pepper it was a light delicious way to get your veggies. I will be back here frequently.

    A lover of Mediterranean cuisine, I don't how I missed trying Istanbul Mediterranean Cuisine and…read moreBar. So my daughter, who has enjoyed Istanbul many times, took me there for Mother's Day. We arrived at 12:30 and they were slammed. No available parking, so my daughter dropped me off (so sweet) and parked a couple doors down. The dining room was packed and noisy. The young man who greeted us said he'd have a table in ten minutes or we could sit in the air conditioned patio area. That's what we did. The patio was quiet and a large fan blowing over a trough of ice kept us cool and comfortable. We started with an appetizer of hummus, tzatziki, pita, and dolmades, with sliced cucumbers and tomatoes. The tzatziki was the best I've had. The sliced veggies were great so my celiac daughter could scoop the yummy spreads instead of pita. As lamb lovers, we ordered the lamb kabob plate and the lamb clay pot. The plate came with scrumptious rice, Greek salad, and sliced veg. The clay pot was filled with diced potatoes, tomatoes, and tender cubes of lamb, beautifully seasoned. So much delicious food! Our waiter offered dessert, but we were stuffed and settled for to-go boxes. I had an excellent lunch for two more days! As a big fan of Mediterranean food, I don't know how I could have missed Istanbul, but my first time surely won't be my last.
