Just like most of the other posts from other reviewers- bland lamb. But their filling of meat is minuscule and the heaviness of lettuce is sad. Seasoned fries was lackluster. Sauce barely noticeable. I give them two stars because the owner and staff was friendly. read more

I've read the other reviews of this place and find that they're right. The atmoshere isn't much to look at but the food was very good. The veggie pita was to die for-lots of fresh veggies and a great flavor. My husband wasn't overly impressed with his beef pita but said it was ok. Each basket came with a little chocolate candy inside. I thought this was a nice touch. The owner is a very nice guy and has created an easy-to-use menu. Bottom line: Give it a try. read more

See all

I had the Lamb with Fries. Whole meal with drink is $12. This little place is easy to miss, it's tucked away across from the small HEB on Gray Street in the older part of Killeen. The owner was really nice and yes he's a one man show. The food takes about 20 to 30 minutes but he is only one man. My vibe is that he's a middle-aged man, maybe a Dad, who always wanted a restaurant and now has one. He seems to make everything to order, which is why it takes a while for the food. However, he's very personable and seems to foster an old-style of business-consumer relationship. That is, he takes his time with the food, he talks to you, goes out of his way for you and that more than made up for the small and cold (30 degrees outside and no heat?) venue. The food was not genuine Greek but more like what it is, which is a homemade pita with homemade ingredients. It was actually very good, not too heavy of a food. I ate the whole pita in about 3 minutes. Once I started eating it I couldn't put it down. I'll probably go back and recommend it to other people who aren't in a rush and want some good, non-fastfood food. read more

Walked in and was greeted with an "oh shit" I'm a very rude way by the lady working. Got to the counter and was rushed by the man saying they had to hurry before the "lunch rush" (that never happened, wonder why) still trying to give it a chance I told the lady thank you when she had the food and got a grunt and eye roll back. To top it off the soda was all carbonated water, and the food wasn't finished, was disgusting and had no sauce was not finished. Took my loses and left after the first bite. read more

The food here is really good it's sorta like a gyro but it isn't still dont know what it is really between a gyro & a soft shell taco/ burrito, but my friend brought me here & I only ordered a half of one & was craving more will definitely come back again read more

PITA DE JOUR - a soldier standing in a restaurant - Sandwiches Near Me - Killeen, Texas

Amazing little atmosphere. Great people. Noticed them from across the street doing laundry at spin city. Would absolutely go again!

Came here looking for a greek style dish I ordered a Lamb Gyro my thoughts: the food tasted pretty good, a fresh and light feeling which is good considering I eat fast food quite a bit. The only thing I forgot to ask was more Greek style ranch sauce. The owner was also very friendly. improves: it seemed a bit small read more

So I went here awhile back because I was really craving gyro. The location is in a very rough part of town. It didn't help that the owner told he had just got robbed and they stole everything including food items...Really? I was ready to go after that... but I couldn't leave because my food was paid for already and took over an hour to get done. I only ordered two sandwiches and french fries, you would have thought I ordered the whole menu. The food is over priced and just okay, nothing to brag or talk about. read more

It's a good tasty place in the heart of fast food central. I did hear the microwave go off a few times after our order was placed. Granted it's a one person show and all. From reading the reviews below it is true that one's order will take awhile to receive. My advice is to call ahead if you know what's on the menu. The fries are really tasty and the owner is nice. It's not authentic Greek/Mediterranean cuisine, but it's a change from Taco Bell, McDonald's etc... I had the lamb with cucumber sauce and it was tasty! It's a quaint little hole in the wall! The decor is not uppity but it's clean, check it out! read more

I was always interested in trying this place because I love pita sandwiches. I finally tried it and I'm happy I did. Since it was our first time there, the man (not sure if he's the owner) that was there helped us understand the menu and how to order. He also let us sample all of their sauces. I LOVE the spicy ranch and cucumber ranch. I ordered a whole chicken pita with tomatoes, onions, lettuce, monterrey jack cheese, and spicy ranch sauce. My husband order a whole pita, half beef with tomatoes, onions, lettuce, monterrey jack cheese, and spicy ranch. The other half was lamb with tomatoes, onions, lettuce, monterrey jack cheese, and cucumber ranch. It was delicious. My husband thought it was really good as well but he wasn't full after the meal. He said he could probably eat two whole pita sandwiches at least. The only thing we were unhappy about was the wait time. We understand that it's because there was only one guy there and we went with 3 other people so it was a large order. He recommended (and we highly agree) to call in your orders ahead of time or you might be waiting for quite a while. read more

Ordered the lamb sandwich and a salad. Lamb was very flavorful. Like the fact that you can build your own sandwich, choose your sides and drink. The place is a bit run down but it's clean and neat. The service was top notch. Will go back. read more

I frequent Pita de jour and enjoy my vegetarian pita. My son tried the cheeseburger today. He said it was excellent, chicken tenders are homemade and everything is prepared fresh! We will continue to frequent This place! read more

Small place and it had a funny weird smel to it. The food was awful and owner was the only person there so it took forever to get our food. Go somewhere else. read more

Worst food I have ever had period...didn't know lamb was supposed to taste like old fish. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your money here. read more

It's a one man show. The food took about 30-40 mins too make. Everything that we had was good but could have been hotter, and used more cucumber sauce. I also didn't like the fact that the debit card reader is hooked unto a laptop. It was a great way too steer from burgers and other places in the area. I personally think more staff should be hired though. read more

Loads of flavor!! Really fresh veggies and the owner was EXTREMELY nice very friendly!! I will be back.

Great food! Great service! The inside isn't the prettiest but who cares? It's the quality of the food that matters. This is a person who knows how to make an authentic gyro. read more

My favorite place to get lamb gyros in Killeen. I want to save my time so i tried to order on phone few times but It's a little bit hard to hear the man through the phone. This is good restaurant overall read more

The best thing about this visit was the hot, fresh fries. The lamb pita was underseasoned, and the sauce should have been ON the meat and not on top of the lettuce & tomato because once u eat the top, the rest of the pita is flavorless. The owner was pleasant. He was really trying to give us a good experience. We waited for our food and he brought it to the table. I liked the ketchup dipping cups that came with the fries. And the Hersheys kiss was a sweet touch. I was disappointed in the pink lemonade. It taste like it was made with crystal lite or something. I would not visit this place again unless I had a serious craving for crinkle cut fries. If you want an authentic pita, go to Gyro Nook in Killeen or Harker Heights. read more

What kind of restaurant only has one person running everything!? A shitty one. This guy needs to hire some employees so it doesn't take an hour to make a bbq chicken pita. Otherwise there will be a lot of one time customers, like me. Don't waste your entire lunch break here! read more

Avoid this place like the plague. We literally waited an hour for a not very tasty pita, and the owner had to constantly query us as to what we had ordered. The venue is not at all welcoming or relaxing. I will never again go here, and I actively advise anyone who asks about food in Killeen to avoid this restaurant. read more

Pita-De-Jour is HORRIBLE! We waited for over an hour for our food, there were only 3 people in the restaurant. He said the food would be ready in 15 minutes but everyone that ordered waited an hour. The owner is the only one working. He has no other employees. He was cooking and taking orders and taking money. Not sure if the kitchen is a proper kitchen with running water. Never heard water running (a sign of washing his hands), never heard food cooking except for the beeping sounds of a home appliance. The portions were horrible small. The food was disgusting. The pita sandwich was not palatable nor edible. I took two bites of the pita sandwich and gagged from the taste. It did not taste like food at all. Three of us ate at the "restaurant" and no one could consume the food. In the time we waited for our food only 2 people came in. One left after waiting 20 minutes to pay for her order. The only thing fast about the place is he took our money immediately after we ordered. After I paid, I noticed there was no food already made and it appeared to only have a refrigerator and a microwave type appliance. We didn't hear good cooking all we heard were sounds of cans being opened. We were given our drinks about 40 minutes into the wait so the soda was gone long before the food came. The cup of soda contained so much ice we were left with just a few sips of soda. The chicken in the Pita bread was nothing more than canned chicken (explains the cans being opened sound) Never heard or smelled food cooking. The "Greek" cucumber sauce tasted like tarter sauce. I'm not sure how this place can stay in business. NEVER AGAIN! read more
