Chicken shawarma with rice. It comes with a potato slice. Rice is yellow rice with peas and carrots sprinkled in. Chicken tastes nice but sauce definitely needs work. It's pretty dull and really need the hot sauce to overcome the fatty global feel of the white sauce. read more

I've been here a couple times since it's so close to me the food is good I usually get the chicken platter with rice and salad. Sometimes they put to much sauce on the chicken and all I can taste is the sauce maybe try asking for less sauce when you order. Their food is good chicken is never dry very juicy and I love their eggplant would definitely recommend this place read more

Great service and good food for late night. They were really busy near closing time but got everyone their food in a timely manner. The chicken on rice was delish. i would prolly sauce on the side next time as they can over sauce food. Staff provided good service more in particular the asian guy. Thank-You! read more

Disapointing first time visit at this restaurant. Definitely won't be back, Me and my sibling came in an made a Large& Medium order for a chicken platter. Service was mid. 30 min to use being seated and eating, I decided to order the same thing but to go this time. By this time I had someone else take my order she didn't seem courteous whatsoever before even completing my order and asking me what I would like on my salad, she gestured that I should pay first. after explaining to her I want what I initially came in and ordered, she let me know that it would be more money, of which I had no problem paying seeing that I made an order for 2 prior.One gentleman was behind me and i'm pretty sure he wasn't asked to pay for his meal before getting his order complete. Anyways I let her know I would be out on their patio front outside untill my order was ready. In all fairness spend your money where you are appreciated as a customer I most definitely would not spend my money here EVER! Toronto is a diverse multicultural city a melting pot of various nationalities Treat people fairly not everyone is a thief or robber read more

Very clean place. I was served by an old lady. She is so friendly and generous. My plate was full with sufficient amount of food. I even had a left over that I ate it the other day. The food was tasty 8.5/10. Salad and veg were fresh. Price wise very good with the amount u get. Highly recommend! read more

Pita Lite - Chicken Shawarma plate, sufficient amount! Completely full - Mediterranean Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Stop serving rotten meat. The sauces you pour all over it won't prevent food poisoning and doesn't actually disguise reheated half cooked meat from the days before! So disgusting and irresponsible to the community! read more

This is my favorite shawarma place. I usually get a large mixed shawarma plate and that can feed 2 people. The portions are super generous. Make sure you get the middle aged lady to serve you she's even more generous with the toppings read more

Average shawarma place, a bit better then shawarma max across the street in my opinion. I normally go here for convenience. Their chicken shawarma is good but not the best I've had, one problem I face is that it is not consistent time and time again when it's good it's good. When it's an off day the chicken is bland. The same can be said with the portion size for the plates. Sometimes you get a lot of chicken sometimes they like on the rice and give you a small amount of chicken. At the end of the day it's a decent lunch/ quick bite place but I wouldn't go here expecting great things. Overall it's an average shawarma place. read more

I have tried a few similar establishments and order falaffel but today was chicken shawarma. Loaded with flavor and you could taste each and every individual ingredient added. The only thing I would say needs change is the choice of pita used. Very thin. Fell appart easily as I was just unwrapping it. Service was slower than usually expected on a late end of night, but the wait was somewhat worth it. Not dying to go back. read more

I've visited this spot more often, and I really appreciate the good service the stuff offer here.

After a long day of sight seeing, we wanted something quick to eat. We chose Pita Lite out of a group of take-out restaurants. The 2 guys working the counter were a little terse in the beginning, but once we decided on our ordered, they were very patient and accommodating. One of the guys made recommendations on which sauces I should get. I appreciated his recommendations. I ordered the falafel platter. The falafel was extremely dense. I was only able to eat 1. The salad, tabouleh, & turmeric rice were satisfying. The meal served its purpose. My son ordered the beef shwarma. He said the beef made him feel nauseous. He didn't eat it all. He barely touched the rest of the platter. The tabouleh salad was fresh, but dry. read more

We accidently found this place one night. I have to admit, at one point we were coming here at least 3 times a week for their chicken swarma. As of recently though, it has been a hit or miss. Something about their eggplant is so tasty. And they are quite generous with portions. read more

So I definitely fancy myself a bit of a shawarma connoisseur, having tried several different varieties and restaurants. Really, I have to say this place is my favourite. BUT - and unfortunately - there are lots of areas to improve. Pros: - FATIMA!! She's an incredibly kind person, always smiling, and always trying to be as accommodating as possible. She literally laces my salads with love and I can't thank her enough for everything she does. - portion sizes are great. I have to actually disagree with some of the previous reviewers as I find that I can usually save half of my salad for tomorrow. - food is tasty. I like the combination of ingredients, spices, sauces, and the quality is definitely there. They've NEVER given me a salad with wilted lettuce, or soggy tomatoes no matter what time of the day I go. - price is competitive with others in market. Maybe it can be argued that they're a little tiny bit overpriced, but I'd rather pay $12 for a fresh salad full of chicken instead of $10 for half wilted lettuce and a few toppings. The value justifies the price for sure. Cons: - long wait times. Fatima can't run the store by herself on a busy Friday night. She does a perfect job for what she's given, but management really needs to up their presence here. - Consistency is not part of their operation. The same order is prepared differently every time. - staff don't always pay attention to special instructions. This is especially true of ubereats orders. - small sit down/waiting area that sometimes can get uncomfortably crammed - no parking! I've been ticketed for not paying street parking before. Overall, I adore this place and I'll keep going back. Best shawarma in town :) read more

Incredible! I've been to many many shawarma places, but this one was just amazing. Came here at 11 PM on Sunday being super hungry. The super nice lady Fatimah serving me took the time and prepared a feast of shawarma salad place. I loved it so much, didn't get a chance to take a photo. Sufficient amount and unlike other places, she didn't hesitate to fill up my plate, plenty of salad and chicken. Definitely coming back here. :) read more

Food is average But the Service is Poor. Would rather go to Shawarma Max right across. I ordered 1) Shawarma Platter, 2) Chicken Shawarma Salad and 3) Falafel Salad. Service too slow. Only one person working. Guy working there started giving food to people coming after me who had single orders. Rude. When he finally started cooking my order. He was preparing only 2 Salads. I thought he might have forgot about the third. I inquired and the guy rudely replied that if I had 2 salads or not. and When I repeated about Shawarma. He didn't cared to reply and just carried on. Food is average. Good for take out not so much for sit in. read more

It used to a pretty decent place, good value. However, they recently hired a new lady and the portion is now significantly smaller. A lot of my coworkers are complaining about it. Disappointed :/ read more

Best shawarma in north York... Price is reasonable and service is great Love the signature shawarma (shawarma with fries) read more

Purchased a Groupon for pita lite, it's literally a few mins walk from my office. Walked in today to be half greeted by a young girl, not over friendly and I took a few mins to glance over the menu board while she was serving other customers. When it was my turn I told her I have a groupon, right away she aggressively told me I couldn't have any specials. I said ok it's my first time here I'll have a chicken shawarma. She said You can't have it at as the special shawarma only a regular (whatever that means, first time here lady) ok I'll have a regular one, didn't even realize there were different ones. So she makes it up and asks what else since the Groupon is worth 10.00 and the shawarma is 6.79. I said ok I'll have the lentil soup and drink (the board said add an extra 2.99). She spent the next min or so telling me I can't have that because it's considered a special. The young guy working the cash register must have noticed how uncomfortable I was looking being constantly told what I am not allowed to have so He stepped in and said that I can have it and pay the difference. They then whispered to each other a bit. I said if it's a problem I will get something else, a salad or whatever. He said no it's ok for the soup and smiled. She looked even nastier then she did when I walked in. Cool, I'll take it pay the difference and dash out of this place quickly and spare myself any further scolding from young counter girl. If they are trying to get new business they should get rid of the nasty girl and keep the nice, smiley young guy there. A tourist with an English accent walked in with a toonie in hand asking for change. The nice young guy was opening the register to give him change and nasty girl snapped at tourist guy saying no we have no change. He turned around to go out the door and I offered to change his toonie. I pulled out my wallet and gave him 2 loonies for his toonie. That wasn't so difficult, and took a few seconds. Nasty girl needs to take a nice pill before going to work. Food was ok, chicken not bad, a bit salty. Pita was super thin and fell apart half way through. Lentil soup is good. Nice flavour almost lemony. I think the service deserves 2 stars only because of the guy, if he wasn't there I would give it 1 star. read more

The worst service of any restaurant I've been to. I walk in and the employee is on his phone laughing and texting; he tells me to wait a minute (so he can finish his funny text I assume). I order a meal and he tells me it will be 6-7 minutes. I order the meal and tell him I will wait outside until it's ready. I return 5 minutes later and he hasn't even started yet. In fact he is still texting and chatting with a woman who may or may not be an employee. He told me he would start cooking the meal now. Seriously, I'm supposed to wait another 7 minutes because he had to finish texting? This place has lost me and everyone I know as a customer. The epitome of unprofessionality. read more

I really like this franchise so I go to a lot of its stores . as soon as I got in I was greated with a smile and asked what I wanted. I never tried the falafel, soo I decided it was TIME!! I asked if it was store bought, but the lady quickly told me with pride that it is made from scratch. The got the falafel wrap... It was FANTASTIC... Soo I got 3 falafels to go read more

Super bland, just skip it and go to the other middle eastern place across the street or McDonald if you're hungry late at night.

This place is average at best and quite pricey all things considered. I ordered the chicen schwarma salad, which was lettuce, small portions of things you put in a schwarma, and then so much tzatziki. It was just over 10$, which to me, is quite a pricey salad for a lot of lettuce. The entire thing was SOOOOO SALTY that I couldn't even finish it. read more

The older lady who worked nights is no longer there. Service has gone down hill. Portions are smaller and they seem to be trying to close down before 12. Will no longer go back. read more

This is a typical pita/shawarma place that serves pita sandwiches and also plates. The key difference is that they also sell kebob dishes. The pictures suggest that the kebob dishes are Iranian style. Koobideh and Chicken kebobs are available. This place's pricing strategy really pushes you to get the specials. I didn't get the specials the 2 times I've been here but maybe I should have, because the things I got were not very good. There are several strikes against. For my first meal here I decided to get a large falafel plate. Relative to other places, I find the falafel here a little hard on the outside and dry on the inside. Portion wise, it's ok for the price you pay. The falafel was subpar but I really liked the salad. For my second meal, I got the beef kebob (2 x ground beef, or koobideh). Once again this is subpar. There are several Iranian places if you go north. All of those places are superior to this, and cheaper. Pita Lite charges $7.99 for a koobideh. Mine didn't come with a tomato/veggies at all as per the picture. There's also no yellow rice. The skewers were adequate and what I expected them to taste like. But every other place sells koobideh for cheaper and they come with salad or pop. So clearly the value is lacking. Oh and they didn't give any sumac or butter. It's literally a box of white rice + kebobs. So basically I don't like their falafel and there are much better choices for Iranian kebobs dishes. Despite the poor rating, I haven't ruled them out yet. It might have been unwise of me to not get their specials. Their specials are their bread and butter and will probably be very decent. Chicken shawarma plate for $5.99? That's what I'm getting next time. Maybe they should just remove all the kebob dishes from the menu because they seem very pricey and subpar if my meal was any indication. ****Update**** I've tried their chicken shawarma plate special for $5.99. It's worth it. You get a box full of rice and shawarma and they give you 3 sauces. Very good price-value ratio. The chicken shawarma is also cooked to the right texture. So don't bother with their other stuff and just get their shawarma. read more

Just what everyone else is saying, horrible customer service and just average food. Taste was nothing spectacular. And for them to run a 50% off deal with groupon, means they're dying for business. Or, people just don't come back for a second time. read more

One person working on a Sunday, he was overwhelmed and rushed through everything. Not only was the service poor, I question the cleanliness of the restaurant. I saw a spatula drop on the floor and he didn't even clean it. I would never go back to this place again, if you don't want to get food poisoning, I suggest you don't eat here either. read more

Usually when I order souvlaki dinner they put more than one piece of potato, and offer more than just a little bit of Tzatziki sauce, but not here! We had to ask several times to put more stuff in the plate. Nothing too special about this place, even though it gets crazy busy. It's just another shawarma place. read more

Got the chicken shawarma wrap. Don't know how other things taste, but the chicken was good for the price. Will come back for quick lunch and the staff were friendly in my experience. read more

We tried the chicken shawarma on lavash and it was plenty big. The lady making it was skimpy on toppings. The toppings could have been a lot nicer prepared to make the presentation look more appetizing. For example lettuce chunks were too big and watery. Same with cucumber. Inconsistent sizes of everything. The sauces were also watery and spread with a knife (lol) -try serving a watery sauce with a knife. It's tricky and skimpy. They need a thicker yogurt base. In spite of all that, I felt that the seasonings and flavour was there and some toppings were very fresh. The chicken on the spit looked very fresh and appetizing. I will go back and I will keep the person who dresses the sandwich in check as they build it. Please increase the consistency and freshness and keep up the rest. Good job overall Pita Lite. read more

The good thing about this place it's open until 12 unlike other places around here. Anyway I'm not a shawarma lover, so every time I stay too late at my gym I just grab a Steak Wrap the one they have on promotion now and it's absolutely adorable with all the grilled vegetables and stuff. The food is always fresh and the guys are giving a good service, so Pita deserves 5 stars from me read more

The owner/manageress is a con artiste! Went with my wife and asked for the Daily Special but she charged me full and returned the (shorted) change without a receipt. She then immediately called to the next customer and must have done the same, because he asked about the price. She ignored him under the pretext of being busy taking more orders. When we asked about it, she said she gave us the correct change and that we did not say exactly that we wanted the day's special! We pointed out that in any case, that item was the day's special anyway. She began belittling us for trying to be cheap! All but one of the guys preparing the food are helpful. One guy, seems to be a relative of the woman, is rude and crude, however. The business is busy but I've noticed that most customers do not actually count the change they are handed, but just blindly pocket it, even thanking the cashier/owner who actually talks down to the clients ! There is another place, on the opposite side, Shawarma Max opposite Tim Hortons, that is not busy, but really honest and has good food too. read more

I had a craving for chicken souvlaki and decided to give this place a try. Nothing fancy and a tad on the expensive side but very tasty and satisfying. read more

Fresh food. The chicken souvlaki wrap is great!. Very nice and friendly staff. I am a regular now.

On the day I visited the "laffa" was actually packaged burrito shells thrown on the heat until they bubbled. Not traditional laffa bread like I've had at other places in the area. Very disappointing. Half of the pieces of chicken shawarma where too hard to chew and I had to toss them out. The sauces were just OK. They had a number of good items you could include in your shawarma. Servers weren't terribly friendly. read more

Today, I thought I would go to Pita Lite and have a dinner after work... Yikes!! It was a very bad idea. Let me start: The daily special was beef shawerma, okay great! I paid $11.24! Hold on, did I just pay this much for a "daily special" which left me starving still? Here is the crazy part, when you hear of daily special .. what kind of special do you think of? at least a $2 difference.. right?? I look at the TVs he has up and this is what I see.. $9.95 for today's special vs. the regular price of $10.50 so that makes a special? 55 cents ? Really? What kind of misleading pricing is this? I call that a sneaky way of marketing. I tried to explain to the girl who works there that 1. the daily special prices have gone up and 2. the portions has been substantially reduced. She said "seriously?" in a condescending manner. I told her that she can pass the message to the owner that I'm extremely disappointed and that they just lost loyal customers. We were one of the 1st and most loyal customers to this place. With today's experience and feeling like I was fooled with the 55 cent savings plus the food portion and the hefty price to be left still hungry is a total disappointment and we're never coming back! you could easily have a dinner plate special from the friendly greek for that price and it' right next door. #unhappy#customer read more
