Im exploring more food places in Brooklyn and was on the lookout for delicious chicken shawarma platter. This place didnt disappoint. The chicken was juicy and flavorful. One thing I noticed is lots of places serve bland rice for their shawarma platter but not here. The rice was flavorful and delicious. The hummus was good. Loved the pickles and salad. Ill be getting more food from here again. read more

Really a 5 star place but I gave 4 because I want to give them room to grow. This is a cozy spot with indoor dining and take out. It looks very clean and the service was amazing. They even brought my food out to me because I wasn't parked legally and had my kids in the car. I ordered 2 falafel sandwiches, a falafel salad, and a That - Chicken Shawarma for my son. The sandwich was vegan, full of flavor, and a great portion. I actually ate both of them. My wife said the salad was amazing. She didn't even need the dressing. My son devoured his plate while growling, never coming up for air until finished. So I guess it was pretty good. Unfortunately, I didn't get to take pictures of any of the food because of how good it was. 10/10. I would definitely go back if in the area. read more

Grabbed takeout lunch here - 2 falafels. Didn't order the spicy sauce because wasn't sure about if it'd be too much. But the super sweet guy behind the counter said he'd give me one to try, and then when it was time to go, said I needed two! Delicious and wrapped well so we could eat it while driving around Brooklyn. read more

Holy Pita - Falafel - Middle Eastern Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I keep wanting to like this place because middle eastern food is my favorite, but for some reason, every dish is always a little off. Been here two or three times now and not as into their falafel sandwich and chicken shawarma platter as I thought. Their hummus is creamy and good and their fluffy pita is delicious, but everything is a little oddly spiced, and I think I've gotta sadly move on. read more

Tried this hole in the wall place before seeing a movie and wanted to try their falafel. It is freshly made so you may have to wait awhile for your order. Got their falafel pita sandwich with all the trimmings and the tahini sauce was extra special. Not sure how many falafel balls but its more than 3..but for the price of 13 dollars and change, yes you can get a better deal somewhere. But the sandwich came out hot and fresh so its worth the wait. read more

Don't come to this place, the guy at the register doesn't know how to read. That's probably why he's working there in the first place. Went to pick up my order told me he didn't have it because they don't use the service that's on their website. He kept asking where did I ordered from so I showed him and he kept asking from where when it clearly said on my screen where i ordered from. read more

Really delicious!! They give a ton of food. Honestly, I'd be back. The food took a while to make about 30 mins. I got the chicken shawarma, falafels, fries, and a pita. They have really nice inside seating, alcoholic drinks, tea, juices. It's a cute spot! read more

So yummy! We ordered Holy Pita for lunch and the servings were huge. The price is more than reasonable and it's so easy to order from. We picked up our food, the place is small but cute and the staff was nice! The food was also ready in no time. I ordered the falafel and it was so delicious! read more

The food was excellent and authentic. The portions were relatively generous and the pita was super fresh. We ordered Chicken Shawarma Sandwich, Holy Moly Pita Sandwich, Iraqi Malawach, and hummus and tahini. Everything was very flavorful and fresh. The veggies tasted and felt fresh. Good all around and I would certainly come back. The dog Pita is also an adorable staple of the restaurant and will certainly make good use of any scraps you don't want. read more

I love coming to Holy Pita whenever I'm in this neck of the woods. They have some of the best hummus around; it's like silk on your tongue. I'm a huge fan of eggplants so I always recommend the sabich sandwich ($12) or the Iraqi malawach ($12), or the hummus + eggplant + egg plate ($11). These three options are more or less the same thing, with the only difference being the vehicle in which the eggs and amba and fried eggplant are delivered to you. They also have the cutest outdoor space to eat and enjoy the weather too! read more

Holy Pita, You did it! The falafels are the best in The city! Flavors are dynamic and the menu options give you lots to explore on future visits. To add, the Date Shake was AMAZING, so good it was giving me ALL the serotonin. The staff was great, very friendly and helpful. There is even a cool outdoor space with a lounge area, dart game and corn-hole boards to play. I had a great time on my visit! There's lots of room to invite groups of friends and intimate enough for smaller meetups/dates. *Wink* You have to visit Holy Pita when you can. I'm telling you; you won't find a better falafel. Trust me! read more

Food: Absolutely delicious! Was trying to find a place for a group of us to eat near the area and after much searching (nothing was quite grabbing my attention and had the ability to seat and serve a group of 5 during COVID) I stumbled upon Holy Pita and was immediately sold! We ordered a variety of dishes and each and every one of them were amazing- and of course the homemade hummus was out of this world! This place does not skimp on the tahini which makes Holy Pita's hummus extremely smooth and rich! Cost: Very reasonable for the food you are getting (also the portion sizes are pretty big and will definitely fill you up!) Environment: Very laid back- the inside is a bit small with just a few tables but that's okay since the backyard/outdoor seating is absolutely awesome! Picnic style tables along with some smaller seats around some tables make this overall vibe of the outdoor seating area super energetic! Service: There seems to be only two people who runs the restaurant- the owner and the cook! For two people, they definitely dish out some awesome dishes in a reasonable amount of time! Fantastic service! Uniqueness: The best part of Holy Pita is the owner- he is super friendly and when I told him that this was my first time here, he was great at pointing out what dishes he would recommend we try (even though they're all delicious)! Definitely a place I plan to come back to visit not only because of the food but also the owner! Thank you for such an awesome experience! :) read more

If you want the most flavorful pita, dips and spreads... Look no further. Let's just start with how cute this place is. There is a really cute outdoor backyard seating area which is perfect for a date on a beautiful day. I tried the chicken Shawarma pita and was seriously in heaven. There was so much flavor in just the chicken alone but with everything else added in, my taste buds were having a party. The Israeli salad is so amazing from here. I also really love the falafel and could've had about 20 of them. All of the sauces I tried were incredible. I definitely want to come back for more because I have been craving it ever since I had it. Another spot that I highly recommend and suggest to anyone who loves tons of flavors. The staff were super friendly, along with the owner who I met as well! read more

Top 3 falafel sandwiches in the city without a doubt. Reminded my wife and I of the falafel wrap we had in Jerusalem a couple of years back. They really take care to layer the falafel and the ingredients so every bite has all the toppings inside. Really nice staff, super accommodating to families with infant/toddlers. Nice owner as well, makes you want to see the place do well. It's likely a bit out of the way in terms of being off Myrtle Ave or close to the subway, but worth making the walk over. Highly recommend checking this place out. read more

Friendly staff and tasty food with big portions! I ordered the falafel and chicken and I'd highly recommend the falafel. They have an outdoor area in the back with great ambiance too! read more

Holy Pita - Chicken Shawarma Salad - Middle Eastern Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Ambience nice. Quiet for a Saturday afternoon. I ordered kabeh and falafel. I dont have much to compare this to. Ingredients seemed super fresh, cooked so it held together just right and didn't crumble upon the first bite. I asked for more hot sauce which probably dominated the natural taste of the food. Id say they use the highest quality ingredients for sure. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here again (went to horrorcon) but if i was a local i could see this being my regular spot. Guy at front counter was nice enough, i sat outside until it drizzled. When someone brings out my food im used to them asking if i have everything i need or if theres something missing. That didnt happen here. No utensils given which is fine, im not a diva but to assume someone wants to eat with their hands without asking is interesting. Music selection was upbeat. Easy to find parking nearby read more

One word to describe the food here is authentic! I am always a bit skeptical to try Middle Eastern food since I lived there for a few years, and traveled to a few countries in the region as well. This is hands down the best shawarma and hummus I've had in a while. The location is a bit out the way, but it is worth the travel. Thank me in advance. read more

So the trek out here was no joke. No train goes out here and you'd probably be walking minimum a mile to the nearest one if you need . The trek is worth it though I must say . I took an order of chicken shawarma to go and the owner Josh , was nice enough to let me try a falafel as a treat for a first timer . I'll say this of the bat , the falafel is out of this world !Easily the best I've ever had, although I've maybe had it from about ten spots or so perhaps I'm no pro . It was juicy , right amount of salt , perfect crunch , perfect chew , perfect flavor and not oily . I received the falafel some time after placing my order or I would've ordered that instead of my chicken shawarma that I ended up eating later in the day . The chicken shawarma was no slouch at all though . The bread/ pita was exceptional . Super fresh and good sized and again great flavor . The chicken had some curry flavoring and was loaddd with some good veggies . Personally , I'd prefer my chicken cut in larger chunks in a sandwich and have slightly less sauce inside of it, but that's my only nitpick . I'd rate the sandwich a solid 4.5/5 . I'd say this is a super solid spot despite the limited things I tried . The owner is so cool you'd want to support the business after speaking with him and for that this place gets 5 stars from me . I'll be sure to make that trek out there again to support not only him and his business but my now immense occasional craving for that falafel . read more

Please do not waste your time going here, dry food and rude customer service at the front.

The food is incredible!!!! Mediterranean cuisine at its finest. Amazing flavors in a beautiful restaurant. The owner Maurice and Chef Ervin are wonderful and take enormous pride in what they do. The location is gorgeous and has an outdoor area that is also gorgeous. Everything here is so fresh and I love trying new things. There were so many things I tried I never even heard of! This place has something for everyone. read more

This is most definitely the best place to eat in the area . Everything on the menu is so delicious , authentic and made with love . Chicken shawarma and the schnitzel are two of my favorite main meals . The fries is so good I have to say . Sumac fries , never had it like that before. Falafel sandwich is also good and the pita itself is always fresh and tasty . Pita the dog is also very cool . Heaters in the little outdoor area , Everything is neat and clean . They only have Boylan soda machine which I liked very much . There is also a selection of vines and the dessert is amazing, I forgot the name of a desert . Something like crapes with Nutella and ice cream . There is also Baklava to go . Good job guys . I will keep coming back read more

Holy Pita - Chicken Shawarma Platter and a dessert - Middle Eastern Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

We picked two sandwiches to go. My fiancée had a falafel sandwich while I had a chicken shawarma sandwich. They gave us a couple balls of falafel to try while we waited. The falafel were perfect. Crispy yet moist. Definitely some of the best falafel that you'll find. The chicken shawarma sandwich was very flavorful. They sauces were outstanding. I preferred the falafel to the shawarma. Surprisingly, they also have local craft beer on tap. I don't recall seeing beer at most falafel spots let alone local craft beer. read more

Really really good. Surpassed expectations in every way. Date Milkshake was amazing too.

I definitely recommend chicken shawarma plate. Really tasty and lot of protein,hummus is perfect,pita is soft and fresh. read more

I'm so mad at myself for not trying Holy Pita sooner. It's an avenue block away from us, every time I biked by it I thought "I need to try that", and yet, months go by...but that's over now. We just got a lunch delivery of their falafel sandwiches and sumac fries, and they were *fantastic*. I had previously found a spot in Clinton Hill that had solid falafel, enough to scratch an itch, but not amazing. When we wanted amazing we schlepped to our favorite places in Manhattan. That is now over, as Holy Pita has fantastic falafel. Even after delivery, the falafel was still really crunchy and salad in the pita totally delicious. Flavors perfectly balanced, textures great with both crunch and a little acidity in the salad, and tons of flavor in the falafel itself. The fries were remarkably crispy given delivery, and the seasoning fantastic. Top notch falafel has made it to the neighborhood! read more

Holy Moly Holy Pita! Our experience was great from the start. The owner was very friendly, took our order, and brought our food outback. He also came out to chat. We ordered three items to share, and it was more than enough for two people. Moraccon cigars: ground spiced meat in phyllo dough. Deliciously flaky with a hint of sweetness and served with a layered sauce of cool and spicy. Falafel: topped with a tahini and hot sauce. Great mix of flavors. Schnitzel Malawach: Think pita/gyro but in a chewy and flaky wrap. On a side note, the music was a mix of 70s rock. We will definitely be back. read more

Holy Pita is right. This spot reminds me of some of the casual spots I had the fortune to frequent when I visited Jerusalem many moons ago. The owner was gregarious and friendly and made sure to check in with us to ascertain which of the items we ordered we liked best. The Sumac Fries were simple, but that sumac made them just that much more special. We also ordered the Chicken Shawarma Pita Sandwich and the Iraqi Malawach. The Malawach was hands down one of the most interesting and textured, and delicious - let's not forget that - things I've had in a while. It's everything you'd want in a mezze plate, but let's add an egg, and oh! let's also wrap it up in this homemade flatbread-extraordinaire. #allthenoms If you can go here or order from here - do it. read more

Staying in Bed- Stuy since my daughter delivered a baby last Saturday. Needed a night off from cooking and Holy Pita called to me. Exceptional Israeli food and I highlight, EXCEPTIONAL. We ordered a chicken Sharma sandwich, a Schnitzel sandwich and two plates with rice and salad. Every taste was spot on authentic. Easy drive and pickup. The patio in the back looked inviting as well but not as inviting as my grandson ... Will be back soon read more

If you looking for some delicious and amazing Middle Eastern food , Holy Pita is definitely a spot worth checking out. The food , vibes and atmosphere is on point, I went to check out their grand reopening and I was absolutely impressed with everything I've had. My honest rating is 9.2 of a 10. If you do decide to check it out, I highly recommended having the falafel it's AMAZING read more

Went to Holy Pita on a Tuesday afternoon with a friend. Place was mostly empty besides a group of men who seemed like regulars. We sat in the backyard since it was nice out. Place looked spotless, clean, and tidy. There's wall art outside the establishment and in the backyard, which gave it a retro vibe. I dont remember seeing any lights hanging outside in the backyard but that would give it a nice feel in the evenings probably. I ordered a spicy shawarma and my friend ordered the Sabich sandwich with fries. I got a soda drink- which I liked the black cherry soda (I got 3 refills). Let me just say this shawarma had a good balance of meat and pickled veggies that I liked. And it was packed well into the pita and it was the first time that I ate a shawarma that didn't fall apart all over the place due to the juiciness of the meat or sauce. My friend liked her Sabich sandwich which included veggies, salad, and boiled egg as protein. We shared the fries, they seemed to have a brownish spice on them but I didn't taste anything- it came with a nice sour-sweet dipping sauce. They could add salt on the fries. Lol. The owner(I think) was the one who took our order. He was a very friendly man who gave us a falafel each while we waited for our food! The falafel was super yummy! Def the best Israeli food I've personally had. He asked us where we were from and was nice but my friend who said her father was from Palestine- he made a little joke about it. I know it's a touchy subject for some- so take that how you will. But still loved the experience and hospitality! Would go back again. #freePalestine read more

Found Holy Pita on way to the ferry. It was weekday lunch hour so there was a decent line and some wait for food but owner was very friendly and there is a cool backyard area you can hang in while you wait. The prices went up a bit since covid - $15 for Chicken Shwarma Pita (at least compared to $13 listed on Yelp) - but people didn't seem to mind. On a chilly fall day, my Chicken Shwarma Pita was soooo yummy - well tossed salad with tender chicken and pickled hot peppers - it really warmed the belly! One of best shwarma in the city. You can taste the love. read more

I was looking for a new lunch option near work and noticed Holy Pita on G Maps. Decided to give it a try and they completely blew me away! The falafel sandwich was stuffed and delicious. I couldn't even finish it in one sitting. I'm a new fan and will definitely be back soon. read more

Good service, nice vibe, wholesome and delicious food. Went there for the first time today but I'll definitely be back. I had the sabich sandwich and it was perfect. The gentleman who helped me was more than willing to make recommendations. When I ordered, he advised me that it could take a few minutes to prepare because they make everything fresh. The wait was brief. The taste was great. read more

It's really good. We get the falafel sandwiches and a side of the vegan shawarma and make a combo!

Excellent new addition to the neighborhood. Love the hospitality and the food. I enjoyed the chicken shawarma platter and the falafel and hummus. Everything was so fresh.
