The food is amazing, and the staff is always genuinely friendly and polite. The chicken kabob plate is my go to every time and comes with generous portions. For some reason, this place is usually a bit empty, but in my opinion it's a hidden gem. It's a family-run business, and you can tell they really care about the quality of their food and the experience they provide. Everything tastes fresh, the restaurant is clean, and the service always makes you feel welcome. If you're looking for authentic delicious food without the long wait or crowds this spot is definitely worth checking out. They deserve a lot more recognition! read more

10/10 Customer service. We walked in and a young lady greeted us with a warm and friendly smile. We ordered the gyro plate and it was well worth the money. The inside is very well kept, soda machine working, the entire staff was very friendly when we asked questions about the menu. I also ordered fries, and they were tasty. I just want to give a big thank you to the front desk girl, she was very accommodating!! read more

I came here with my coworker since we were nearby for a work meeting. She suggested this place since she used to come here at least twice a week when she worked in an office nearby. I'm so glad she suggested it because I was happy with the taste of the food. The service was friendly, and our food was brought to our table rather quickly. There was plenty of dining room space and many tables. It's a casual environment with the fountain drink machine and self serve for utensils and napkins. There was a small TV on in the corner. We both ordered the mixed beef and chicken Shawarma plate. The pita bread was warm and paired well with the beef and chicken. There was something very tangy and delicious about the salad dressing which I really enjoyed. My friend asked for the hot sauce and I'm glad she introduced me to it. While it was spicy, just a little dip went a long ways. I lived the spicy green sauce! The garlic sauce that the plate came with was delicious and complemented the proteins. I'll stop by again when I'm in the area. read more

Honestly it pains me to write this, but this straight up wasn't good. Ordered chicken Shawarma plate. Chicken was bland and extremely dry (see pics), side salad wasn't that good either, and rice was bland as well. Staff was nice for sure. Maybe other people have gotten them on a good day, but my experience just was straight up not good. read more

I've been a customer for years and the food has always been really good. I usually get the Shish Kebab plate, it's around $18. The beef is delicious, really good flavor. The garlic sauce is by far the best I've ever tried. The rice is pretty basic. Salad is great too but I do wish the lettuce was more fresh, it was brown and soggy. read more

The food is amazing, the staff is so friendly, and the portions are generous! Definitely great value for the amount of food you get.

Unfortunately, nothing memorable about the food. I came here for lunch on a Monday. This place is called California Pita Grill, so not sure if there was a switch in owners. First time coming here, and probably last unfortunately. There are a lot of options here. I got the chicken pita wrap combo with Greek salad for an additional $3.50. Total came out to be about $12.50 which is not bad for lunch. The combo comes with a drink as well. The lunch portion size is enough to fill you up with just the wrap alone... but the chicken was extremely salty and sour. I should have gone to Doner G's instead. I took out most of the chicken because it was so salty. The Greek salad was okay, although it too was doused in sauce also. Better luck next time. read more

This was my second visit to Pita Grill Express and both times were just awful. For starters, they are not an authentic Greek restaurant and their food is just garbage. My Greek salad tasted soaky and like if it was made the day before. I literally tossed it in the garbage after just a few bites. The two side pieces of falafel tasted okay but also not great. Zero stars for horrible food. read more

I'm absolutely hooked on the Chicken Shawarma at Pita Grill Express in Orange, and if I could eat twenty, I totally would. The chicken is juicy, deeply seasoned, and flame‑broiled to perfection, with a slight smoky char that instantly makes you want the next bite. The wrap is everything I crave: tender chicken wrapped in fresh pita, with crisp lettuce, tangy tomatoes, turnips, and that signature dreamy garlic sauce--which I always request extra--and truthfully, it elevates each bite. It's savory, creamy, and the ideal partner to the seasoned chicken. I truly mean it when I say I could eat this over and over again. Portions here are generous, and the value really stands out--customers consistently praise how filling each meal is and say the portions leave no one hungry The staff are always warm and efficient, keeping things moving whether you're dining in or grabbing take‑out On recent visits, everything arrived piping hot and perfectly assembled--never soggy, always fresh. The garlic sauce remains my favorite--it's homemade, rich but not heavy, and just tangy enough to cut the richness of the chicken without overpowering it read more

This place has gone way downhill. I haven't been here in months but it was one of my favorite Mediterranean places in OC. The wrap I got today was nothing like the one I had last time. Not only did they increase the price, but i feel like the portions shrunk. Not only that, but the wrap legitimately sucked. The chicken was so dry and they removed the fries and sauce that they used to put in. The cut on the pickled onions were so blocky and it was put together so haphazardly. Not sure if I just came on an off day but I don't know if I'll come back again. The one redeeming factor was the cashier was very nice and service was fast. I would have preferred to wait longer for better food though. read more

Love grabbing lunch here! The food is delicious each time I go. All of the staff are nice and friendly.

Plenty of tables to choose from if you decide to eat inside. read more

We had Pita Grill catering at a school event this week and it was delicious. I absolutely loved the freshness of their salad, the dressing was tart and lemony (just what you'd expect for a Mediterranean salad). The chicken was shredded but not dry, the rice had a great flavor, and their pita and garlic hummus/dip was awesome! I can't wait to stop in now that I know about this place. read more

Honestly, super disappointed with Pita Bread Express. The portions are ridiculously small -- definitely not worth the $18 per plate. The "shish kabob" isn't even real shish kabob meat; it tastes more like cheap carne asada cuts thrown on a skewer. Every item on the plate looks minimal and underwhelming, like a kid's meal at best. Definitely not coming back -- total waste for what you pay. read more

Solid quick fast Mediterranean food place. I've been twice for lunch during the week. The first time I tried the pita wrap with fries and loved it. The second time I got a meal to go and the chicken was a little dry, but the portions were decent. read more

This is my favorite place. The chicken kabob plate is perfect I usually eat it for lunch and dinner and then get an order of their spicy hummus. I crave the food.

OMG my son and I stopped by and let me say this place is bomb! The service was friendly, fast and on point, everything you wish all restaurants would be! We had the chicken and shish ( steak ) kabobs , everything was fresh and oh so tasty! It's small and very clean. Our experience was GREAT! We will be back when in the area. read more

Worst gyro I've ever had! Asked for Tzatziki & was told it's already in there. Gyro was cold, the small amount of Tzatziki tasted like refrigerated plain cold cream cheese. Yuck! There was just an 1/8th of a tomato wedges, meat & a couple slices of onion. Threw it away because it was so gross. Definitely won't be going back read more

Great food! Great service! They know me by voice... the mixed grill plate is awesome. Garlic sauce and salad are tasty as well!

Guys when I tell you this place is a 10/10 and so worth your money, I mean it. The gentleman who is always here is such a sweetheart and very welcoming. The food is so healthy and well made. It truly is the spot to go to when you're feeling for a healthy yet fulfilling meal! Alongside all that, me and my girlfriend favorite meal to get is the mixed grill which is a plate that has a combination of three different meats, salad, and humus with a garlic sauce on the side, and a piece of pita bread. But 10/10 everybody like seriously it's a must try! read more

How tf do you forget to put the meat in the order? Learn how to do you job. We made a phone order to pick up and wtf is this? And when we call the lady she didn't even apologize and tried to doubt us like we're effing lying. Why tf would I pretend to not receive the meat? We work in the healthcare field so we MAKE ENOUGH MONEY to afford this cheap shiz. Never coming back. read more

This was my first time ordering here. Got the chicken kabob plate. My second bite into my meal I discovered a large thick black hair. Needless to say that was the last bite for me. Sadly I did not get to enjoy my lunch. Looking at the meal some of the lettuce was also brown and wilted and the hair... the hair was just gross. Ruined my appetite. read more

How a place that serves middle eastern cuisine where most of the items should be naturally gluten free doesn't have a single gluten free item? Firstly, they gave me massive attitude when I asked. Secondly, I've been there before and picking things that look gluten free or don't have gluten ingredients I tested it and it was fine. So I went in again to ask about a few items and got "sorry none of our items are gluten free" Yeah ok. They just don't know and don't even care to look so guess I don't care to come back and if you're gluten-free (especially celiac) don't even bother. Waste of your breath. read more

Location: located in Orange off of Chapman and rampart across from the Renaissance apartments. Although there are several other eateries there is a ton of parking available. Venue: rather small but really cozy. About 12 tables inside so I'm sure it can get packed if busy during lunch. However, I walked in and ordered to go around 6:15 pm and only one other table was occupied. Surprising since I thought a Sunday may be busy. Food 5/5 The menu had a good selection of Mediterranean dishes and was reasonably priced. I ordered the chicken kabob plate for $10.50 and man it did not disappoint. The chicken kabob plate came with two chicken skewers on a bed of rice and a side salad along with pita bread. Everything was cooked so well! Definitely adding this spot to top favorites and also plus since it is close to home, win! Service was also pretty fast for a to go order. I waited about 5-10 minutes and the cashier was pleasant. The restaurant was also very clean! read more

One of my go to spots for lunch. I love coming here because it's quick and healthy and the portion sizes are great. I usually get the chicken shawarma salad. It comes with 2 sides of salad of choice.

Definitely worth a visit when you're in the mood for something light and healthy. read more

I honestly do not know why I come back. The chicken is always dry and they are OVERPRICED! I got the chicken salad and all they give you in the salad is Romain lettuce and literally one olive sliced.
