The crispy chicken shawarma is delicious. Good food service. Very nice good energy. Definitely recommend!!

Shish Kabob Special Platter Lamb
Harumi P.

Pita House Amazing? Fantastic flavors? Yes. If I need a pick me up at work for lunch and need a delicious yet nutritious meal? Pita House is one of the places I enjoy for my meals. Unfortunately, personally I have not gone in only asked via Uber eats. My family members who have gone there say that the service and ambience is really nice and friendly. As long as I am in Grand Rapids I for sure will order from here whenever it's possible :) Also they are halal :)

Pistachio cinnamon roll
Devin C.

Pita house - Wealthy st. Chicken shawarma Pistachio cinnamon roll Pumpkin spice baklava THE SHAWARMA HITS HARDER THAN MY ANXIETY. Perfectly tender meat, fresh bread, great tasting sauces, and the pickled veggies put it over the top. The pistachio cinnamon roll was also excellent. More pistachio flavor than cinnamon. Frosting was seriously incredible, I hope they make this a regular item. I wasn't a huge fan of the pumpkin spice baklava. It was refrigerated and I'm pretty sure it wasn't baked that day if you catch my drift. Didn't have that iconic flakeyness of phyllo dough. Flavor was a mild pumpkin spice with a bit of nuttiness and butter. I'd try their regular baklava for sure (next time!!!). Definitely coming back here.

We visited Pita House during a family trip, so the entire crew came along. Whereas this is usually a recipe for frustration, as there's at least one person who just can't find anything to satisfy on any given menu, we were not disappointed here! Even the fussy eaters found crispy, tasty meat, creamy and flavorful baba ganoush and hummus and salads. The cafe Arabia - sometimes known as Turkish, Greek, or Macedonian coffee - really hit the spot. I would not think twice about a return visit with a whole gaggle of hungry, fussy eaters.

Samis Gyro Sandwich
Emily K.

Placed a quick online order here for lunch today and it did not disappoint! Super easy to order, ease of access with street parking or their small parking lot, and the food is amazing. They were also super friendly. I ordered the Sami's Gyro ($14) and customized it with tzatziki, garlic sauce, feta, tomato, cucumber, parsley, and sumac seasoning. This might be the best gyro I've ever had, and it was huge!! Tons of gyro meat, great flavor, and they didn't skimp on the sauce either. Would definitely recommend for a quick lunch!

Fatoosh Salad  Falafel Hummus & Pita Bread Stuffed Grape Leaf
Jenna D.

Great meal. I had a platter with hummus, grape leaves, and falafel. The location is great and the east GR vibes are there. Service is helpful and I am always satisfied when I come.

Chicken Shawarma Platter
Esther C.

Flavors and portions never disappoint! Pita House is my favorite Mediterranean spot in GR. I prefer platters but the gyros are just as good. Other than the food on the menu, there are also many drinks and snacks to purchase. There's a shelf of spices, sauces, chocolates, and other goodies by the register! The only thing I don't feel great about the last few times I stopped by is the service. If I hadn't had Mediterranean food before, I would've felt lost and rushed as my order was being taken. The person taking orders seemed a bit impatient and wouldn't explain the different options when my friend tried ordering for the first time. Luckily I was able to help out. It's kind of like ordering Mediterranean style Chipotle except there are no labels or guidance, simply "what do you want." Nonetheless, still my go-to Mediterranean spot in GR. Street and paid parking available in the area!

The space is small and seating was a bit cramped. I wouldn't cone with more than 3 people max if you are hoping to be able to sit. But great if you want to grab it and head home. Shop was very loud due to the small space, music playing and people talking but thats expected. For me the cost seemed a bit high. The sandwiches just come on a standard size bread you would make at home and most of the options are just various ways to make a grilled cheese. And while they taste good, they are still $10 or more for a grilled cheese. Same for the soups, they taste good and lots of choices but for the small (12oz) you are still paying $8 or more. Which means even for just a standard grilled cheese and tomato soup you are spending $18 or more so it feels a bit expensive at that point. I had a Ruben (on standard sized bread) and a pastrami soup for $23. Also, no real need to upgrade for a $1 for the roll to come with your soup. Not really anything special about it. But again overall it did taste good on a cold day. Just which the cost was slightly lower and seating didn't feel cramped.

They even have their own canned root beer. How cool is that. Unfortunately it was a little too sweet with maple syrup/molasses taste for me (to be fair the waitress forewarned me about the fair. But why not try their signature root beer. I don't regret it one bit). My only issue, which is out of their control was that the parking lot was packed on a Saturday 6pm, so we had to find street parking down the road.

My cousin and I sat at the bar, and you can get full service at the bar. She ordered a hot dog and I had a pizza. The hot dog came with that weird neon relish, in typical Chicago fashion, and was on a poppyseed bun. The fries are crinkle cut, and I don't know what seasoning they use, but it was so good! A little sweetness mixed in with the spices. The pizza was good; thin crust and cut square style like they do in Chicago, which I forgot about and kind of hate. I should've asked for silverware, but didn't. Next time I'd ask for it pie cut instead. The flavor was really good though. It was a bit pricey for what it was - it was a 12" pizza, and each topping an additional $3. $21 just seems high to me for a thin crust pepperoni mushroom pizza. I had draft beer and my cousin had a mixed drink. She had no complaints about hers, and mine was quite good! So many places draft beer tastes a little soapy, whether it's the way the clean their lines or how they wash their glasses, but I didn't taste any of that here. There aren't many choices on draft but was a good variety. They also have a full bar and lots of canned beverage choices. They don't have the healthiest menu, but that's not surprising since they're known for Chicago hot dogs, Italian beef, and pizza. If you know what you're going for it's perfect! The vibe is good. The space is pretty open, gets a decent amount of light, is clean, and there is parking! The restrooms are tiny, but clean, and I appreciate that after you wash your hands the door opens out so you don't have to touch a handle. We went on a Monday after work, which does turn into karaoke night, but we had time for a couple drinks and food before that really got going. It also wasn't crazy in there and we could still carry on a conversation at the bar without having to yell. I'm glad I finally made it in, and fully appreciate having them in the North Monroe area. I will definitely plan to have more happy hours here!

When I walked in, the place was packed. It's a small space, and it was bustling around 1 pm. I was noticed by a kind employee who let me sit at a cozy booth. The menu is huge and includes tons of sandwiches, burgers, wraps, and salads. It was tough to choose but I went with the Irish reuben (grilled pastrami, corned beef, bacon, sauerkraut, swiss cheese, thousand island on marble rye). Sandwiches come with chips, or you can upgrade to fries (regular, sweet potato, or Southwestern dipping fries) - I went with the Southwestern dipping fries, which are seasoned potato wedges. My food came out quickly and I was amazed at the large portions. It was a full basket of fries and a sandwich that would equal two full sandwiches elsewhere. The sandwich was super hot and delicious and packed with meat. I think it's one of the tastiest reubens I've had in awhile. The fries were good, but I think I prefer regular fries. Glad I got to try them, though. They have a daily special where a specific item is discounted, which makes it an affordable option for lunch. I was there on a Tuesday so the special was a spicy fried chicken sandwich or wrap for $12 served with chips or fries. That's a great deal! I will definitely be back for one of their specials. The employees I interacted with were all very friendly and kind and working really hard. I always appreciate good customer service and I found that here. Finally, they serve beer and wine, so if you want a drink with lunch, that is an option as well. The only downside is the small dining area, so I wouldn't say it's great for large groups, and they are only open Monday through Friday for lunch. Luckily I have a flexible schedule, so I'll be back for lunch again soon!

Spacious parking outside. I tried their hot pastrami sammy. The pastrami was sliced against the grain to make it easy to bite, and it tasted perfectly pastrami-y--that signature smoky briny taste, but it wasn't too salty. The portion was enormous! Half an O'brien's sammy would have been the full order anywhere else. There's even a little buddy-sized sink and a tiny toilet in the men's bathroom! Popular with locals and it's easy to see why.
