Ordered to-go via the website. It was ready on the time promised. The order was large and complicated but the staff got everything correct and packaging was perfect. We tried the chicken kabab pita, beef pita, chicken shawarma pita. I recommend all three. The chicken kabab meat was perfectly tender and so flavorful. The hot sauce is a must!! We also had their fries which were perfectly crisp and seasoned. Hummus was so authentic and the quality was 10/10-def no filler ingredients. Lentil soup was delicious and hearty. Roasted potatoes were also so tasty! Overall, it is delicious food with quality ingredients and premium flavor! I will definitely be returning! read more

Wow! I was looking for a light but filling lunch spot and had always noticed Craft Pita out of the corner of my eye in this shopping center. So glad we finally checked it out. It's a cute casual, order at the counter setup with plenty of booths and tables, plus a few outdoor spots in front. We kept it simple and ordered the chicken kebab hummus bowl and the chicken kebab salad bowl. Both were great. They were fairly similar, but we agreed the hummus bowl had a slight edge. There were a lot of other items on the menu that sounded fantastic. The food quality was great and the staff was kind. Honestly, this feels like a place that will probably make its way into our monthly rotation. My only small critique is that it's a little on the pricey side. Around $21 each for a bowl is a bit high for a casual Saturday lunch for me. (But with that said, still excited to come back!). read more

Recommendations for sides for a quick read: Fries with Garlic Aioli is killer (I'm a fries connoisseur) and hummus is amazing. I've ordered from here many times before to-go but this was my first time dining in with their new dinner service, which was nice. Our server was very attentive and helpful! I shared a the caesar wrap, fries, and hummus with one other person and it was very filling and we came in hungry. Caesar wrap comes with a good amount of rotisserie chicken in it, I liked it but it was a little dry. Not sure if it gets super busy here but service was quick and our food came fairly quickly as well. read more

Finally gave them a try during HRW! I've tried their beef pita and chicken shawarma sandwiches on two occasions. The beef was lacking a bit of flavor and the chicken was very dry. Their fries were good! The prices were a bit higher for the portion especially for the nearby Mediterranean food however they have a $10 off coupon if you download their app. read more

Craft Pita - Sandwich - Mediterranean Near Me - Houston, Texas

Edit: staff checked on us practically after I finished the sandwich. Extra sauce should've been included or offered to begin with, hence why I mentioned execution. I just used the toum that came with the hummus bowl. Have been meaning to try this place because the Fountain View location was on Eater Houston's essential 38 list. The selection is pretty nice, lots to choose from. I ordered a chicken shawarma pita sandwich and my fiance got the chicken hummus bowl. Honestly we thought the prices were pretty fair, until we saw my pita sandwich. The portion is probably 75% of what I would've expected for a meal and given the price. It was also pretty dry, not enough of the toum sauce inside, you definitely need another sauce with it. The pita was sad, flat, and dry; though the pita chips were really good and well-seasoned. Her hummus bowl was tasty and vibrant in color; though, it's laughable to include chickpeas in the ingredient list on the menu when there's only 3 in your bowl. Staff are friendly and check on you. The outdoor patio is pretty unique, hopefully the weather is in your favor. In sum, it was a 3-star experience due to the value proposition and execution. For Mediterranean, I've had a consistent and decent experience at the Dimassi's all across town (weekday lunch for the best value). read more

We tried this spot for a quick lunch. I really enjoyed the food and everything was fresh and delicious! The staff was very kind and patient with us as we decided on what we wanted and also recommended us some options which is always appreciated. It's a great place to go for lunch with family and friends. I definitely would like to return to try more! read more

The cashier was friendly and helpful and advised me to which dishes were the popular ones. So I got the listed first chicken pita and should have maybe tried the gyro one. This pita sandwich is too dry for me. I think more sauce or aoli or more tomato would be just right. Or maybe serve it with some of the tomato and parsley salad on the side. (not sure they have that) You can get hummus as a side but that is dry too. The pita chips served on the sides made me glad i ordered their orange blossom tea which tastes like jasmine as well. read more

Great experience with their takeout. I ordered online via their website and picked up. Inside it was pretty empty after 8 on a Friday. Staff were friendly and helpful (though I didn't have to interact with them much since my food was ready and I had paid online). The mezze platter is a great option to try 3 dips with warm pita, pickled turnip, tabbouleh, and warm pita chips. I also got the side of salmon and it was cooked perfectly, not dry at all, and well-seasoned. I definitely would order again. I've also dined in at their other location and had a great experience there. read more

It was my first time at this location, to be here for dinner (rather than lunch), and having dinner "service". Used to dining at the Fountain View location and ordering at the counter and them just bringing you the food. The waitress was nice and refilled our waters frequently. I got the bowl with Lebanese rice and gyro meat. It was seasoned very well. I think there could've been more meat since it's cut pretty thinly but other than that I liked the m read more

Stopped in with coworkers. Loved the gyro wrap. So tasty. The pita chips def the better option next to the fries. I would definitely want to come back for those alone even. The portion was generous enough that I only needed half for my lunch. The Caesar wrap was also good. The service was fairly quick for a week day lunch. The price was about average for Houston. It was about 20 a person. The feel was clean and inviting not too busy. read more

Edit: the owner made a good point that his dad isn't always there smoking so I will skip on the days he comes. ( btw I was told that this smoking at the restaurant happens often) I would skip this place and I'm very disappointed in craft pita. My friend and I sat outside and there was a smell of cigarette and cigar blowing towards our face that made me feel sick and lose my appetite. We didn't know what it was at first, so decided to just get up and go inside. As I was walking in, I realize it was a man smoking at a table next to us. I told the employee about this and all they said was we can't really do much because it's the owner's dad . The food is usually good ( as I have been to their other location ) and the people who work there are nice, but I would definitely skip this place next time because of the bad experience and the fact I may not be able to sit outside. To the owner, please tell your dad to stop smoking at your restaurant read more

As a fan of their other location near the Galleria, I was super stoked when Craft Pita made its debut in this quiet strip in the West U area. It's the sleepier of the two locations, but it's also my favorite for its easy going vibe, friendly service, guaranteed parking, and super tasty food. It's been open for close to 2 years and has been a great addition to the neighborhood. I appreciate the mishmosh of indoor and outdoor seating and lots of group friendly and solo dining options. It's a bright, clean, and modern interior with a fun wine wall and open kitchen. That latter bit is a big one because it often smells *so* good in here when they're cooking anything and everything. Also, kudos to that quality AC. It's everything during hot weather months. Ordering is casual and easy. Pay at the front, take a number, and the food will be delivered tableside. I have enjoyed their mezze dinner ($70 for 2), which includes a sampler platter, rice, pita bread, and choice of protein that includes rotisserie chicken or kebabs or or even veggie friendly options such as falafel or lentils. Sometimes doing it a la carte is fun as well, where the roasted cauliflower, potatoes, shawarma fries, and either their labnet or hummus with a salad is a nice mish mosh of food. If it's lunch time, I'm looking at any of their bowls and platters or potentially a pita sandwich. The chicken / gyro / beef ones are my favorite. While it's technically the kid's menu, I have no shame in enjoying the pitadilla, in part for the funny name (#1) but also because rotisserie chicken with mozzarella is such a basic, but equally addicting combo. Whole rotisserie chicken birds are now at $37, so I'd recommend just getting a dinner special ($55), to maximize the spread of food. Lastly, I appreciate the man behind the operations, Raffi, who is always trying new ways to make Lebanese cuisine more approachable to the mainstream palate. Both him and his family have done a great job in trying new things from collabs to bringing in regional wines to give the place more options to enjoy. ___________ (#1) Basically, Houston in a nutshell. read more

When I walked into Craft Pita, I immediately noticed how friendly the counter staff was. I also liked how the desserts were displayed in the case, which made it really easy to pick what I wanted. As someone who likes lime green, I enjoyed the bright and cherry interior. I ordered the gyro pita sandwich and baklava. The gyro pita was really tasty, with all the components of a full meal in a convenient to eat wrap. The baklava was soooo rich in the best way, soaked in syrup and with a nice flavor. read more

I had a gift card here and I finally had a chance to come and eat here. I brought my friend Nancy because this is one of her favorite restaurant. Great food and service, the owner even stop by our table and talk to us for a little bit. They have some unique fusion food you don't see at other restaurants like Lebanese Tacos and Pitadilla. It is their spin on Tex Mex food with a little Lebanese twist. It was interesting but nothing wow me but the falafel and the wings are great. I love the fact they give you the full wing. The pita sandwich is big and you can share with a friend and you will still feel full. read more

Amazing food quality, service and staff. I go here or order from Craft atleast twice a week.

When I'm in the area and wanting something healthy~ Craft Pita is one of my favorite options. Meats are always tender. Love the crispy tahini salad, it's a must for me each visit. Counter service, strip center parking situation, I love the lightness of this menu I never leave feeling stuffed, but always full. But, I don't love that pita they bring with the entrée. It's just kinda dry and whatever read more

Overall, I loved this place! I had the chicken pita and it was so flavorful and very delicious. I also love that it comes with pita chips! It was very nice inside and customer service was great.

I have eaten here a couple of times. You order at the counter. Their menu is not too large and the prices are reasonable. The food can be hit or miss. The falafel pita I had was a bit dry. It probably could have used more olive oil in the hummus and more garlic sauce in general. The cheese flatbread was tasty and so was the zataar. Another time, the hummus appetizer was just too salty. I left more than half of it uneaten. The counter girl checked on me and I told her the issue. She went to the kitchen to talk to the person who made the batch but she never followed up with me the rest of the meal. The place is nice, bright, and clean. However, I'm not sure if the path to the bathrooms are accessible for a wheelchair because of the table layout in the back. read more

Craft Pita - Chicken Pita - Mediterranean Near Me - Houston, Texas

My wife, mother n law and myself decided to stop by Craft Pita after running errands all day! We walk in and we're not pleasantly greeted by the employee at the register. We asked for recommendations and he did not know what we should get. (I don't know if he is new or not) however, I would hope an employee knows at least 1 thing off the menu. We had an idea of what we wanted but we wanted to know what employee thought & he could not give us any recommendations. We ended up ordering the 2 chicken dinner special's and a gyro with rice on the side. The chicken was dry as the Sahara desert that we didn't even finish it. The sides were under seasoned and bland which was altogether underwhelming. The only food item that somewhat gave hope was the Gyro, although it was overcooked however the seasoning was its saving grace. The side sauces tasted like mayo and rice was overcooked. The fries tasted old. For Mediterranean food I would expect a little more passion behind the food like I've tasted over the nation & world. A good thing going about this place was the decor inside and out. It was light and refreshing. Hopefully & I say hopefully... this was just a bad day for them. Food- 2 stars Atmosphere- 4 stars Service- 2 stars read more

Yum! We enjoyed everything we've tried here. Salad bowl was fresh, with a good variety of veggies, and although I had asked for dressing on the side, they got confused and mixed it in anyway. But really appreciated that they didn't drench the salad in dressing (a lot of places overdo it, hence I always ask for dressing on the side), and it was just the right amount. Otherwise I would have gone back and asked them to remake the salad, but honestly every bite was very enjoyable. Also loved the crumbled pita chips garnished on top. Gave my salad a nice crunch, such an excellent pairing. Our whole family loved the chicken kebab too. Well seasoned, not overly salted, and juicy. Another winner. My only complaint was all the burnt grill marks that I had to cut off, but otherwise it was very tasty. Chicken pita was delicious as well. The shawarma style comes with fries wrapped inside, which was a surprise. I'm not Lebanese or grew up with Mediterranean food, but to me, the addition of fries makes the shawarma sandwich seem more Americanized and less authentic to food in that region. I may be wrong, so won't claim any expertise. However, I will say that our whole family loved the shawarma sandwich with fries combo as well, so I am not complaining. Also loved that they didn't smother the sandwich with garlic sauce. It was the perfect amount. Yum! My favorite item of our meal was probably the baked pita chips. It was so so addicting that towards the everyone was fighting for the last bit of chips. I already miss those chips. Definitely will be adding craft pita to our rotation of regulars! read more

Craft Pita - Inside - Mediterranean Near Me - Houston, Texas

Look, Craft Pita need to sponsor me because my wallet is drained every time I come in. It's dangerous that it's so close to home cause it's easily walkable from the apartments around the corner. After a sweaty workout class, all I can think about is the rice bowl with Lebanese rice and the rotisserie chicken. Truly the perfect post workout meal to ever hit my mouth. I pretty much eat the ENTIRE entree cause it's THAT good, but also quite healthy in my books. Though the pickled turnips needs to be cut thinner or julienned so that I can get every bite in the bowl. Not just a rectangle piece and a bite every time. I want a good flow of picking up the spoon and getting every bit and piece of food from that bowl to my mouth. My boyfriend swears by the beef kabob pita sandwich wrap with fries. After having it so many times, he doesn't believe in trying new things. He'd rather stick to the good stuff. We both don't care for the side of pita because to be honest, it's a waste cause of how dry it always is. But hey, they're consistent on the dryness. There came a point where I had to get my own fries since it doesn't come with the rice bowl and only the sandwich. My boyfriend doesn't share his fries, so I had to get my own. Turns out he eats his AND mine. rude. I need one of those covid dividers so he keeps his sticky fry hands to himself. And only look at my pretty face...or the tv since baseball season is happening. Hence the sponsorship cause I need unlimited fries. Also, please get rid of putting the fries in the green cup. Put it on the plate or a different place holder. I need more volume on the fries here. Help me out. We like to get an additional order of the pitadilla. Totally slaps. We like to take some home to eat the next day for lunch. You know, that left over good good. parking is plennnnty! Great place. 11/10 in my books read more

This place is cute! It has a coffee shop vibe to it. You first order at the counter. The Cashier was helpful in explaining the menu items to me but had trouble making recommendations. The food came out timely! They brought out my fries first so they would be fresh which I appreciated! The fries had the perfect crunch!! They were on the slimmer side but there were plenty in the serving. The aioli served with it had a great garlic flavor without being too strong. I would definitely recommend the fries if you like a good crunch. The platter was a perfect well rounded meal. I got mine with the Lebanese rice which served as a filling base to the meal. The chicken was moist and well seasoned. The salad had an almost tangy vinegar dressing that was light but flavorful. I like that everything is separated on the plate so that I could pick exactly what I want in each bite. read more

This farm-to-table restaurant hosts a variety of fresh options to choose from. My choice for lunch was the rice bowl with the Lebanese rice and falafel.

It is a relaxing ambiance and it is a perfect location for lunch meetings as it is cool enough compared to other restaurants, with a low noise level.

Food: I ordered the Rice Bowl with Falafel. The rice was nice and tender with great flavor from the beef. The falafel was very good as well with a crispy outside and soft inside. The tabbouleh, cabbage, and turnips tied into the dish nicely and provided extra kicks of flavor. The pitas were good, but definitely on the drier side. Service: The service here was great. Staff were very attentive and a relative of the owner even came over at one point to ask about our experience and share a bit about herself and the restaurant. Atmosphere: It was very nice/clean inside, but also casual. I came at lunch time so there was a decent crowd inside, but it did not feel overcrowded. read more

I'm not sure how the place was included in Houston restaurant weeks. It was not a good meal for the price. The pita bread was store bought, hard and chewy. The chicken sandwich was lukewarm. The chicken looked like left over pieces of dark meat. The cookies were uneventful. Not worth the price at all. Maybe I'm spoiled having dined in the Middle East. This place has nothing on an average street vendor's fare. read more

Phenomenal! My workplace catered this place a couple weeks ago and that's when I discovered it.

The decor was really nice too and there's a lot of parking and seating. Not super busy for a weeknight dinner so it should be easy finding a spot to sit. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Fabulous new location for Craft Pita near West University. Have been a fan of Craft Pita for many years at the Fountainview location. Was able to try this new expansion (their second restaurant) with an amazing Yelp event last December. Love their business model where they support local farmers, like Adkinson Farms and Plant It Forward, and their fresh, delicious and healthy menu. Try their seasonal offerings like Brussels sprouts or beet hummus. Love Craft Pita H-APP-Y Hour! Come from 3-6 daily to enjoy a large selection of half priced appetizers. Our favorites include almost everything on the menu!! My favorite salad is the Fatoush. Fresh lettuce, carrots, cucumbers, mint, parsley and radishes topped with crispy pita chips and the most delicious pomegranate vinaigrette. Grab a bottle of the vinaigrette to take home as well. For hot shared plates, the roasted potatoes with the garlic aioli are so good. Get the cauliflower. Served with lemon rind, toasted almonds and tahini. Delicious! Grab a plate of falafel. Four pieces of warm crispy on the outside and soft on the inside served with pickled turnips. Perfect to dip in the garlic or spicy aioli. Do you love za'ater? Get the manaeesh, Lebanese flatbread. The half cheese and half za'ater is the perfect taste of both. And add an order of fries. They are topped with za'ater, too. For dinner, order the pitadilla. Like a quesadilla, but made with pita. Filled with rotisserie chicken and Lebanese cheese add some garlic aioli or hummus to elevate the delicious flavors. Still hungry?? Their pita sandwiches, bowls and platters with combinations of chicken, falafel, beef and veggies are all great!! So nice to be able to sit on their large patio and just relax with family or friends, enjoy great food and soak in the sun. Thank you to Claudia for chatting with us on our last couple of visits and sharing the story of how Craft Pita became the amazing restaurant that we enjoy. Congratulations to Rafael Nasr on another successful opening. We'll be back again...and again. read more

The good stuff is enough to earn 5 stars. - hummus - pita chips - GF pita bread - gyro (meat) - everything is fresh - really nice people Surprisingly the "regular pita bread" was awful, like legitimately a thin slice of cardboard. Maybe that's traditional or something. But the GF pita bread was some of the best I've ever had. The portion size for the salad ($25) was pretty absurd. But at least the dish itself was very nice. Panera bread pricing and quality for the chicken noodle soup. I can't bring myself to bring this down to a 4 because it just absolutely nailed what's important for me in a Mediterranean restaurant read more
