I hadn't been back to Pita Bistro since it opened about nine years ago, so I thought I'd give it another try. The service was prompt and friendly and the restaurant was neat and clean. The menu has had some changes and the prices have noticeably increased. I ordered the "Create Your Own Salad". Before you place your order (for any entree) be sure they have what's on the menu. The protein was the last item offered in the "assembly line ". Only at this point was I told they only had (chopped) chicken or gyro meat. So much for the kabob I hoped for. No other proteins were available, either. The vegetables and hummus were all fresh, but the chicken was dry and seemed like it was prepared much earlier in the day. Considering the salad, regular drink, tax and tip was over $22.00, I was not entirely pleased. A competitor down the street has similar offerings for about 1/2 the price. I hope Pita Bistro can ensure they have all menu items available in the future and that chicken is served juicy, not dry. read more

I've eaten here sooooo many times and I can't believe I hadn't already written a review. Ain't gonna lie, I love Mediterranean food and this place is one of my ABSOLUTE FAVORITES!!! Love love love their bowls and pretty much everything they have is dee-frickin-lishhh!!! Give it a try! They get real busy around lunch time. Typically I get take out for those nights where you just don't feel like cooking. I've never ever been disappointed with anything from this restaurant: the hummus, lentils, pickled veggies, rice, falafel, toum, every single thing including the pita is fresh and full of flavor. One of my top go to's for sure! read more

Popped in after doing a quick Yelp search and was pleasantly surprised! It's like a Chipotle for Mediterranean food - YAY! Generous portions (enough to make two meals for me!), lots of options for sauces, veggies, hummus, rice, and proteins- and you can also get it made as a wrap! I also got a small bag of crispy pita chips - perfect for scooping and dipping. I also spied some tasty sweet treats (baklava) that I'll be sure to try next time! read more

Pita Bistro - Chicken schwarma Create Your Bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This once was one of my favorite places for a healthy dinner, but the prices are through the roof and everything is watered down. I had a "build your own" bowl with chicken. Added some lentils, lettuce, and other toppings. The flavors just aren't there. Even their signature PB dip was watery and flavorless. The chicken was dry and also lacked flavor. I miss it when it was great and affordable... I understand that everything is more expensive now, but you have to keep up your taste and quality to keep my business... read more

I do like their food, but Door Dash is not their forte. I have given them a few chances and each time the order is incorrect. Mostly not getting the items I ordered and pay extra for such as Pita Bread or Pita Chips. I won't be Door Dashing then anytime soon and next time I'll leave the office to go order in person. read more

This was my first (and last) visit to this place. Food was not at all tasty. My guess is that they wanted to create a service such like Chipotle so you can create your own bowl with ingredients, but everything was very tasteless and bland. I had their Gyros bowl, which is served with some Humus at the bottom of the bowl, some lettuce on top and then rice and some typical fixings. Then I picked Gyros meat as protein topping which was super dry and has been sitting around for a while. Aside from the meat, I couldn't taste the flavor of anything. Even the 1/2 pita bread that comes with it was cold and tasteless. The seating is very much like a fast-food place, some clean tables and some dirty tables. People were cleaning their own tables and not once I saw any staff to do the cleaning. Lastly, I ordered a small soda with my meal. When I went to the fountain, the Diet Coke syrup was out and it was just dispensing soda water. I informed the person behind the counter and she was a bit frazzled but said she'll take care of it. 20 minutes later I walked up to fill my soda and it was still out. I finally reverted to Iced Tea. As we were leaving some 60 minutes after the first time that I informed them, I decided to go and check to see if someone fixed the issue. It was still out. Bland food and poor service. I'll never visit this place again. read more

Loooove this place and been here at least a dozen times, they make eating healthy taste delicious. It's literally mediterranean Chipotle and I crave this place weekly. Love that you can stack lots of toppings for the create your own bowl. Sooo yummyyy! read more

This was my second time eating here within about a years time! I really love this place. The inside and outside of the restaurant are very clean, and the inside is vibrant. The workers at the front counter were very nice! I ordered a chicken shawarma bowl. It was $13.50, but you can put pretty much anything that they can fit in the bowl! The items I got in it were... chicken, yellow rice, lentils, garlic paste, jalapeño hummus, Chipotle hummus, regular hummus, beets, and half of a pita bread! Delicious!!! All the flavors came together so beautifully! To wash it down, I had an ice Gold Peak green tea. My friend had a fountain soda, fries, and a wrap. He said it was great, too! Come and check them out! I definitely will be back when passing through. It's located on 48th street conveniently not too far from Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. read more

I really enjoyed my pita bowl! The hummus was very good, and I was able to select from so many different items to get what I really enjoyed. I like the chicken Shawarma, it was delicious. I also really enjoyed my baklava the square one more than the Ladyfinger one. I will definitely be going back here because it is close to work. read more

Love Mediterranean food, so I had high hopes. But did not quite live up to the expectation Positives. Veggies were fresh. Negatives. Gyro meat obviously had been sitting out a quite a while. It was super dry and tough Service was okay. There were 2 people working. One was friendly and helpful. The other seemed like he did not want to be there read more

My salad was made my way. It's hard to complain when you get to decide on how and what you want. So I had it made. And nom nom nom. Olives!!! The restaurant was really clean, and I loved my seating area. They have great pita bread. The people working were very friendly and professional. I really liked my visit; this was my first time in, not my last. read more

The prices have gone up as they have with most places. The fresh juice is now nearly $10 for a cup, which is a bummer because it was so good but I am NOT paying that kind of money for something I'm going to drink in a matter of minutes - my frugal self just cannot justify it. The food is still great despite the cost of inflation. I tried the garlic whip dressing this time and my goodness was it delicious with a very unique taste. read more

Came here for a quick light dinner before a flight. I ordered the Greek salad with falafel. I wasn't in a rush, however, for 4 people working and only one order in, I am not sure what took them so long. It's a chipotle-style place where everything is made and ready to go, but for some reason it took a lot of conversation to make my salad. Food was okay, typical for a fast-food style Mediterranean. Definitely hit the spot for a falafel craving. read more

Fast and easy lunch. Large portions, fresh, and at a good price. You can't go wrong with this place. I always like when I can customize my entire meal (think Chipotle and MOD pizza). For both the salad or bowls you can fully customize your meal, getting exactly what you want! Staff was friendly and helpful thorough the process and don't rush you as you make your order. This location also has a nice outdoor patio if you want some sunshine or fresh air. Nothing better than a flavorful gyro salad and some sun. read more

Pita Bistro - Build Create Your Own Salad - Mediterranean Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

It's an OK place for a fast lunch even though it's slightly expensive. Server was very nice and friendly. Food was just okay and for the price, $13.50 a bowl or 9.95 for a wrap, I think I could get better food. Many items were salty. My husband asked for the veggie falafel bowl but for some reason the girl asked him about gyro or Show. He ended up with gyro but no falafels. I didn't realize it until after we left or I would've said something immediately. I had a Mediterranean Chop salad with chicken Shawarma. The salad was good but too much liquid from the items added. Everything tasted very similar and the chicken was dry. In the food my husband recently the hummus bowl was bland and too many flavors blended to actually taste each. I will admit it wasn't very filling but we both selected to not include rice or lentils. Everything is already pre-cooked and ready on a line to be able to assembled fast. Think Chipotle's. Unfortunately, that causes a huge loss in the quality. Final note - for a place with the word pita in the name, the pita was not memorable except for the fact it was cold (unappetizing) and half is a serving. read more

Truly love Pita Bistro and it's fresh ingredients. I've been to this location about 6 times. I love the jalapeño cilantro hummus with mixed veggies and rice if they don't have rice, choose lentils - you won't be disappointed. The chicken shawarma is cooked and seasoned well. Their pita bread is fluffy and soft. They also serve beer, wine and smoothies. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Similar to Chipotle set-up but Mediterranean style. read more

Just arrived in town and got on yelp for a quick bite. Ordered a Gyro which was huge. Food was excellent. Delivery was fast. I asked for utensils and napkins as delivery was to a hotel and there were none. Moral of the story...you need napkins and utensils to devour this! read more

Do NOT order from here! Just got off the phone with their staff and they were condescending and where quick to blame GrubHub for their quality! Raw chicken and sauce was thrown ALL over the food instead of in neat to go dipping cups. They never served their Bowls like this before and chicken was always cooked thoroughly. They were defensive when I provided my feedback. Their food and service is sadly NOT what it use to be. I asked for a refund and they said they can't do anything about it, to contact GrubHub. read more

Pita Bistro - Can't even see the hummus under this soup of tziki sauce. Kickin K Bob Bowl. - Mediterranean Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I recommend this place hands down. Its a chipotle style service with ALL THE FIXINS.. no uncharging for wanting a little bit of tabouli and greek salad.. just put what you want on the plate... Typically places want to charge separate for everything when in reality you just want a small spoonful. Ingredients super fresh! And they sell real spring water (FIJI). I hate when places sell Dasani or some other purified water... This is my new go to place... The space is very colorful and bright and they even have a bar... Cant complain at all. Check this place out. read more

Looking for something quick in the area and found this place, and so glad we did! There were four of us, and we could not stop talking about how good it was. We all got different combinations of build your own bowls, and we were all happy. The ingredients were fresh and tasty, and I ate more than I should! The only thing I can say negative is that I wish they had other locations because I'm never in this area! read more

Paid $7.25+ 20% tip and they didn't fill my juice up. They gave people a free juice that was completely full. Absolute waste of money. This was so disheartening as I was looking forward to this all day. It is really unfortunate and I will not be coming here anymore. read more

Pita Bistro - Ginger-ly juice - Mediterranean Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This place reminds me of Garbanzo's, if you've ever been there... like a Chipotle took a trip to the Mediterranean and decide to reinvent herself. They have several meats and vegetables to choose from. I ended up getting a gyro wrap with baklava and really enjoyed it. They were quick, friendly, and generous with their portions. I'd definitely visit again for a quick but healthy(ish-- depending on what you get!) meal. read more

This place is so good, wow. Out on a run during my staycation from California and the amount of veggies that I just got hooked up with was very generous. I ordered the Mediterranean Chop salad and added extra veggies and chicken.... BOMB.com. From a very picky California chef to you, thank the two young ladies who made my lunch delicious. read more

I was recommended this place by a co worker and just so happens to pass one up so I turned around and the rest is history. It's Like subway for Mediterranean food but higher quality food . Everything was so fresh and tasted amazing. You can pick from a bowl, wrap, and more options. I got a bowl and again I loved it. So I highly recommend it. Ambiance was basic I would say nothing bad just wasn't special. I had some questions the young employee answered with no problem. I'll be going back asap. read more

Pita Bistro - CHICKEN SHAWER BOWL CYO - Mediterranean Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Small but nice. The workers are super friendly and want to make sure you get exactly what you want even if it's different from what's on the menu. I went right at what I thought would be peak dinner time and there was no wait at all. There were a few people eating but the food is made right in front of you and there was plenty of places to sit. They were more then happy to give me the free check in pita chips and hummus The Greek fries were delicious and I highly recommend adding them to your order! I went with 5 people and everyone left full and happy. Including a vegan, who was very happy with the variety of vegan options. This is like a Chipotle but for Greek food. Great place to stop by for a quick lunch or dinner when you're not sure where to go! read more

This used to be one of my favorite places; however, since the pandemic, they continue to raise prices while reducing the amount of food you get. It's a shame to pay $15 for a bowl and to still be hungry. Also, the chicken used to be really flavorful - now it's just bland. Check out The Green Corner instead. It's basically the same price and you get double/triple the amount of food. read more

Ehh I was not impressed, $17 bucks spent on greasy food:( It was my first time there and I felt like I was rushed to order.. even though I was the only person there.. I wanted to change my order, and I said it before anything was started and I kind of got the evil eye and and feeling of don't you dare!..Chairs where up and it looked closed, but when I asked they said they were open for another hour‍ read more

It was good portions and delicious. Mixed combo was big enough to share with 2 people. It was crowded so we got our food to go.

No pics because I was too busy chowing down! I usually go to P.B. for a fresh juice **YUM*** but today I wanted the protein fries with chicken. They are so good!! I could only finish a third of them, as they really give you a decent amount of food. Maybe I just looked really hungry today? Everything is fresh. EVERYTHING!!! Great lunch spot! read more

I've given this place a couple tries and it's definitely worth checking out! There are not a ton of options near my work for a quick lunch besides fast food, so this is a nice to-go spot. The place is very clean and the employees have been very friendly both times. I've tried the chicken pita, which was super flavorful and the portion was huge for the price. It seems they typically add the sauces on top unless you specify otherwise in your order notes, so keep that in mind! I have also tried the build your own bowl which came out to almost $20 (I added extra protein, pita & tzatziki) so all considered, I would say its not the most inexpensive, but worth what you pay for. The sriracha chili hummus is amazing, and the lettuce is crisp as are the cucumbers. No soggy veggies here! :) My most recent online order didn't show up in their system for some reason, but it only took them a couple minutes (maybe less!) to make it for me. They were very kind and apologetic but it was no biggie. I'd recommend giving this place a try! read more

I needed a solid place to grab a bite for dinner. I looked for locations close to my restaurant, and saw Pita Bistro. I did a quick run through of their menu on Yelp, and knew I wanted rice and lentils in my meal. First decision made - the biggest battle was already won! I walked across the street from the hotel (yay traveling for work) and ducked into the restaurant. It was well lit, and almost empty. I read through the menu one more time, then walked up to the counter. I explained to the young lady working it was my first time, and I have some dietary restrictions - I'm gluten and dairy free. No problem, she said. Awesome! We immediately ruled out the wraps (wrapped in glutinous pita). So I zeroed in on the bowls. She quickly explained what on her table I could and couldn't eat. It was easier to build my own bowl and tailor it to what I wanted. Glad that was an option - second decision made! I started with the jalapeño/cilantro hummus. I then went with a combination of saffron rice and lentils (brown rice was also an option). She spread everything along the bottoms of the bowl, slowly building layers. From there, I added their Mediterranean mix - think a Mediterranean pico de gallo plus mint. I added more tomatoes, the garlic spread, whole cucumber slices, garbanzo beans, pickled beets, and the vinaigrette. Then I had my choice of chicken shawarma, chicken kabob, steak, or tofu. I asked to look at each, and decided tofu. It was such a good call! We skipped the extra slices of pita that normally come with a bowl. She rang me up, and for under $13, I had my meal and a drink. As I was leaving, I noticed they had what appeared to be a full bar - wine, liquor, beer. Good to know for future meals. I walked back to the hotel (like a 3 minute walk - super convenient, and way better than drive thru quality). Got up to my room, sat down, and dug in. I was so impressed by my meal! The tofu was cooked perfectly, and was very flavorful. The jalapeño and cilantro hummus had a kick to it, but wasn't too hot - it was the perfect balance of flavor to everything else. The lentils were a little more a dente than I prefer, but I understand the wisdom in slightly undercooking them than having mush while sitting on the steam table. I killed the entire bowl. The last few bites were overkill, but I couldn't let that deliciousness go to waste. The best thing was my meal was incredibly filling but not super dense. Even though I ate a lot, I didn't feel that heavy fullness that stays with you after certain types of food. It sounds like there is one other location in Phoenix. Such a bummer - I would totally patronize this business more often if there were a location in Denver, especially the DTC area (hint hint...think about Denver! read more

Always good, stuffed my bowel, great ingredients. Helpful staff as well, prices are a little steep but good portions.

Food was really good and staff was friendly. Very clean! You could pretty much customize your salad or wrap. The chicken was very moist and very fresh veggies. I would for sure visit again! Can be a little messy from the sauce so don't plan to eat the wrap in the car!! read more

Great delivery experience. I received my food a little over 30 minutes from when I ordered it. Not bad for the Grub Hub interface. I had their Hummus bowl. I was able to give very specific directions on the Yelp interface for delivery. Pita Bistro got the order perfect. The meat I chose was the Gyro meat. It was flavorful and moist. I have absolutely no complains concerning this meat Great experience read more
