It was 2013 when I first discovered Pita Pit, and nearly 10 years later, they have 3 Anchorage locations, sweet! Their Chicken Caesar had a hold on me for quite some time. Recently, I was able to rediscover Pita Pit via Doordash. I ordered their southwest fajita with steak and the gyro. So much flavor but also a ton of yummy veggies included so you don't feel bad about it. The Pitas are thickkkkk and fulfilling. Any pita can be made into a salad. Highly recommend. read more

We love Pita Pit when we're out and about and want fast but really exceptionally good! It's like build your own and stuff it with lots of goodies. A lot of choices and I'm a Double Meat guy and Add Bacon sometimes. I gravitate to the Buffalo Chicken which I get double meat w/added bacon and Dagwood which ends up enormous when you do double meat. They steam the Pita's which are white or wheat, your choice, and put your meat on the griddle with the mushrooms, onions and cheese of your choice. Fresh guacamole and humus smeared inside your pita before it's stuffed adds a lot of flavor. Judy likes the salads sometimes with a lot of the fresh veggies awesome if you're trying to go carb free. Judy gravitates to the Chicken Souvlaki. read more

Pita Pit - Grabbing a Couple Pita's To Go! - Sandwiches Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

I'm a big fan of Pita Pit and prefer them over other fast food sandwich shops. I love that you can get some of your veggies sautéed on the grill with your meats... I'm looking at you peppers, onions and mushrooms! There are so many options for the type of pita or salad you'd like and they have a fabulous selection of toppings and sauces to boot. They don't skimp on them either; I find that they often ask me 'if that's enough' or 'would you like more?' Tzatziki, hummus or avocado... and NO, it's NOT extra! Ha! Easy to get it to enjoy there or get it to go. When you eat in, they wrap and tear the paper down to hold it without a mess and to-go is partially wrapped and then wrapped fully to enjoy it with ease. The stores have always been clean, tables wiped and service is generally pretty good, although somewhat quiet as well. Things are definitely changing in the service industry as over the last few years. They've offered us a veteran discount as well, which is always appreciated! read more

Came here around 3pm, so it's a late lunch/early dinner. Obviously, very empty at the time, but this is also a fast food establishment. We did end up eating there and the dining tables were well-loved. Lots of pictures from the high school that they support. There's a bulletin board with little notes. You can tell they like being close to the community. Food-wise, I had the regular Gyro Pita, as recommended (meaning, the way it comes as). Tasted pretty good. The veggies in it, cucumbers and tomatoes, all were fresh because they still had the crunch on them. The gyro meat was not dry, pretty good flavor. We were hoping it was going to be little bit of food, but it was a good size and I was full the rest of the day. Staff were nice too. He checked in with us after we finish our food if everything was OK. read more

Pita Pit never disappoints. Great customer service, lots to choose from, great price point. They've added a few new items which is cool. I'm bummed that they eliminated the loyalty card tho... if you dont want to load the app on your phone, you can no longer participate in the loyalty program (screw you corporate and your bullshit tracking apps). I took one star off this time cause a lot of the stuff looked wilted, and that's unusual. But it wasnt just one or 2 things, it was like half the cold items looked like they needed to be trashed and it was not closing time. Ah... I love produce in Alaska! read more

Great option for lunch. The lady here was so nice and helpful. And recommended the Thai buddha bowl. Definitely a+ for service here. The Thai Buddha bowl is very good and a bit spicy. Definitely will be going back for more. read more

Supposed to close at 7, got there at 6:40 after practice and it was already closed. This has happened multiple times and i've always been 20-30 minutes early and they are already closed. Not cool. Im hungry. read more

Pit pit to me is a classier subway. We came here during the quarantine era- so we could only order to go. A little confusing at first because they have a menu hanging up of different pitas. I ordered the buffalo chicken pita. The guy working started the pita, and then went to the toppings and asked me what I wanted in my pita. This is why I was a little confused, because I ordered the menu pita, so I had to reference the menu to see what sounded good in my pita. Hah. Either way it was pretty good. I would for sure come back and get another pita. I like the concept of the pita, it is like a mix of a sub and a burrito, but it doesn't seem to leak out all over my shirt. read more

Love to eat here, great food and normally great service. They are no longer open till 8, the "close" at 7. But they start closing at 6, and turn their open sign off around 6:30. read more

So I was on the Southside during a long lunch break and wanted a grilled chicken sandwich that was reasonably priced....those are a lot harder to find than one would think so I decided to give Pita Pit a try! I had never been to one before so ordering was a little bit of a mystery but I found a menu item that looked like it would fit the bill and placed my order. They had signs up stating that the orders would take a little longer due to their COVID safety protocols (which I appreciate). When my turn came up I was a little confused because they asked me what I wanted and I had ordered off the menu but they were super patient and helped me make a very yummy grilled chicken pita with lots of warm tasty toppings. Only four stars because the pita was torn really bad before the pita maker started filling it and when I received it it was super hard to eat and the toppings were falling out everywhere. I don't know if that's a standard Pita Pit experience or not but I'm for sure willing to go back and test the theory! read more

Pretty good, a lot of variety and endless possibilities. They stuff the pita which is great but they're thin and fall apart every time. Definitely fresher and better than subway. My go to for sandwiches now. read more

Great and fast service that is really super friendly! If I owned a restaurant, I would hire these two in a flash! Now, why didn't I remember to look at their names? Ugh I had a traditional gyro.Hubby had a buffalo chicken extravaganza. We were both very happy with the flavor and quality. read more

I'm a regular here since their vegetarian options are awesome. The staff is always kind and greet you as soon as you walk in. Highly recommend ordering through the app/website for a seamless experience. My food is always ready by the time I get there! read more

This place has catering which I think I will choose next time I need this option! I went here looking for something different. I found good variety of fresh ingredients fir my pita. I loved the club and I added veggies, humus and cilantro with a jalapeño ranch dressing. It was huge for me. Very well served. They ask you if you preferred you veggies grilled which I will try next time for sure. read more

Pita Pit at the midtown location is a little better than the south side. The staff tend to have a better feel for customer rushes and are more relaxed when there is a crowd. I like that the staff is usually like it when they ask to cut the sandwich in half and ensure that all toppings you would like go on your sandwich or salad. For a chain, I enjoy this over subway. read more

This was my first time to try the Pita Pit. I came at a good time of day because it was minimal wait time to take my order. I chose the chicken Caesar Pita. All the buggies were crisp and fresh and this was an absolutely delicious choice! The sauce was creamy and delightful. I recommend this Pita highly. read more

I have rarely eaten here and not walked away satisfied. I'd give it a true 4.5 rating if I could. The only critique I have is that the portions are actually too much. I actually spoke with the owner once about this. I have zero restraint concerning good food, so when I leave I always feel horrible, simply because I've eaten so much that my stomach hurts. read more

Online using regular search engine it shows your eatery open until 8pm. We got there about 7:20m and the door was locked. We could see employees inside. Your phone answering machine says you're open until 9pm. Last week when we stopped by for a pita, it was closed and locked too. It'd be greatly appreciated if you could update your business hours of operation so we don't come by for a third time and be disappointed once again. Thank you. read more

LOVE this place! I dream of Pita... What a wonderful and BETTER than subway place. The employees are always pleasant though a bit immature, but honestly - it's fast food - kids are going to work there. Although teenagers are not my favorite company I understand how they are, and they need to build their portfolios! You're not going to hire people with doctorates at a fast food place - so don't expect it. Besides kids being kids, they've never been unpleasant or unprofessional (unless you count trying to slam dunk burnt mushrooms in the trash) When it gets busy it gets a little confusing, but after a few visits it's easy to fall in to the groove of things. Love me some Pita Pit. read more

Where does the owner find his staff? It's almost comical how amazing these kids are. I say comical because they are so cheery and chipper it's almost unbelievable. I love this business model. Hot, fresh, fun food made by spot on employees that raise the bar for service. Im seriously in disbelief of the experience I had. Congrats guys! read more

I want to like this place but it was overpriced, completely bland and generic. I'd rather pay slightly more for the real thing or even rather go to McDonald's. read more

After a mix up that ended in me biting into a meat pita instead of my Vegan Pita, I wrote a negative review of these guys. I was pretty upset, to be honest, experiencing that after over a year of being Vegan, and wasn't planning on going back anytime soon. The owner contacted me shortly after, and apologized, offering to cater for my entire workplace. He brought us chips, drinks, and a huge half-Vegan, half-meat pita platter with hummus and sliced pita for dipping. Everyone was super impressed and happy...honestly just blown away. Most places wouldn't even be concerned about losing the business of one person, but he even held a store meeting discussing my issue with the staff, instructing them to be more careful of future mix ups. Bottom line, everyone makes mistakes, and the way they handled the whole experience redeemed them for me. Thank you for making things right, and making me the "office Hero" for a day :P I will def be going back to Pita pit and ordering from them because I can tell they really care about customer satisfaction and they respect my Ethical stance against Meat and Dairy. That's all I could really ask for from any restaurant! read more

Attentive staff, friendly manager, fresh food! It doesn't get much better. Pita pit isn't anything fancy, but the food is good! We'll surely be back next time we're on this side if town! read more

This was my first time visiting this particular franchise. And I have to say the place was absolutely terrific! A refreshing, change of pace from my usual Subway addiction for a light meal! The staff was friendly and the food was made fresh and rather quickly for a made-to-order establishment. The selection of products and condiments was good. I highly recommend if you haven't had the chance to give it a shot. read more

Quick, good taste, healthier than most!!!. The people that work here are so nice. This my work lunch option when I am in a hurry. read more

Great place with very friendly service. Have yet to ever have a sandwich that did not taste delicious nor an employee with out a smile. Go eat at PIta Pit!!! read more

Only the crew at this location could make a "fast food" style restaurant feel like a customized sit down meal. Freddy went above and beyond to make our order exactly like we wanted and even offered us options we didn't even know were possible. Everything was super fresh and extremely satisfying. We were informed of the current specials and promos going on, and Freddy offered a wealth of knowledge about the food he was preparing for us. He prepared our pitas with perfection and made it look so easy, and I knowing full and well when I try it at home, it will be a disaster. Also another reason to frequent the Pita Pit! The dining area was clean and welcoming. The bathroom facilities were pristine and comfortable, as well. The trophies and visible support for local businesses makes it encouraging to see a corporate based restaurant so involved in their community. A pleasant experience made that much better by his incredible customer service and personality. Pita Pit should be lucky to have him as an employee. read more

First impressions were good, but unfortunately it went downhill fast. It's really clean and the staff were all very nice and friendly - almost too friendly. We walked in and were reviewing the menu and discussing options and the girl at the register came over and asked if it was our first time. She then proceeded to explain the menu to us...every single item...in great detail. It rapidly became apparent she was going to go through the entire menu item by item so I finally had to interrupt her by saying thank you for the information and we'd order in a few minutes. I settled on a Philly Cheesesteak pita and my wife went with the traditional gyro. This is where the service became...bizarre. We ordered the food and moved down to the right of the counter, where you choose add-ons - just like Subway. Keep in mind, this is FIVE FEET from the register where we just ordered. The girl there asked us what were having. We thought she was asking what we wanted on our pitas but after some confusion, it turns out we had to give them our orders again so they could cook the meat. Again, we just ordered the food...FIVE FEET away...30 seconds earlier. There was also confusion over what sort of pita's we wanted, which is amazing because apparently there are only two options - white and whole wheat. Then we got into the other add-ons, which I'll address in a minute. They put the meat on the grill. For my wife, there were three decently sized strips of gyro meat. For my Philly there was about half the amount of meat my wife had. It was an abysmally, pitifully small amount of meat. The girl asked me if I would like some veggies and cheese cooked with my meat so I added onions, mushrooms and provolone. This is where it really gets sad. I already had a tiny amount of meat for my gyro. The girl literally picked up the onions and mushrooms with her fingertips. I kid you not...I'm guessing she had maybe 4 mushroom slices and 10 pieces of diced onion. Keep in mind this is pre-cooked and the onions and mushrooms were going to cook down to half that amount. I told the girl I was going to want more onions and mushroom than she put on the grill and she did about the same amount again. *sigh* Long story short, I had one of the most pitifully small gyros I've ever seen. I hate to keep using the word literally, but in this case it's true - the pita literally wrapped around the food inside twice. It was about the size of a taquito, maybe two fingers thick. My wife had me do her pita order after seeing how much trouble I had with mine. I added Tzatziki, onions, tomatoes, cucumber and Feta. On every single item, I had to have them double the amounts of things and on the Tzatziki I had to have them triple it. It seems like they would have figured it out by now, but no, I had to keep repeating myself on the amounts. In the end, my wife wound up with a decent sized gyro, but it was still smaller than any gyro I've ever ordered anywhere else. And lest you think we're big fat hog-monsters with unreasonable expectations, two more sets of customers came in after us and they had the same problem. They had to keep telling the girl at the counter to add more stuff. So let's talk about price. We bought the medium meals, which came to $22 and some change. I *HATE* places that make you pay for food prior to eating and that have a place for a tip on the receipt. In retrospect, I feel like an idiot because I left a $4 tip for nothing. This is basically a Subway, where you stand there and wait on your food. I wasn't sure what to expect so I left a tip. Lesson learned. So for $26 (or $22 if you're smarter than I am and read this review), we got two medium drinks, two bags of chips and our pitas. My wife's pita was a decent size; mine was absolutely pathetic - to put it into perspective, I could have eaten my pita in about 4 bites. Hers would have taken me 8-10 bites. I was still hungry after eating - so much so that I drove out to the right, went over to Wendy's and grabbed a Jr. Cheeseburger. I could have gone to Zorba's Gyro's and got a much bigger gyro, chips and a drink for $7 (easily 1.5 x the food). Likewise, I could have gone to either Sparta Pizza or Milano's and got a huge Philly Cheesesteak with DOUBLE meat and an entire Styrofoam container of fries for $12 (easily 4x the food) -- normally my wife and I split one of these and it's a full meal for both of us. So my verdict? The place is clean. The service was muddled but friendly. The food was tasty. But the prices were WAY out of line for the amount of food received. IMO it's not worth eating there. I can appreciate more food options in Anchorage and I can appreciate a franchisee trying to make money, but what I can't appreciate is a restaurant that is so stingy with the food - particularly produce - that I customer leaves hungry enough they have to go somewhere else to eat after finishing a meal. read more

I'm a fan of the midtown location and am now a fan of this south location. Came in with a group and we were all helped by friendly pita makers. The space for eating inside is clean, but I liked the option of eating outside at one of the tables provided. I liked the quality of the ingredients and the sandwich, but if I eat fast food I usually am a little surprised by the $9 price tag here. It doesn't stop me from eating these pitas though. One thing to note is the menu states that the falafel pita comes with tahini dressing here and at the midtown location, but both locations do not have tahini and the workers are always surprised when I point out this option that isn't provided. They have never noticed. read more

Went to this location today and the girl working the closing shift made our pitas and rushed to get us out even thought there was 20/30 mins till closing and when we went and ate our pitas the bread had tears on it and fell apart causing all of the fillings to fall out and wasting more than half the food. One of my worst experiences with them. read more

Delicious food and great customer service. Freddy gave us a great orientation- first visit to a Pita Pit - and suggestions. Evan helped customize with a smile. Both are great ambassadors for the company and provide enthusiastic customer service! And the food was fresh, delicious and exactly how we had ordered it! read more

This was my very first time eating at pita pit, & as I thought I would like the food, I actually really did. But more than half way through my meal, I come to find a piece of hair in it, I was very disappointed as I stopped eating my meal. I also thought the service wasn't that great & has very pricey bottled water. read more

Pita Pit - Piece of hair in my food & high water prices - Sandwiches Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

The food was actually pretty good. Service was ok. However, dropping the f-bomb, asking a co-worker if she's a lesbian, six or more employees standing around, talking about ex's or having your friends hanging out doesn't look good. Also watching the manager texting on his phone without taking control of his crew really didn't impress me much. But what do you expect when you hire a bunch of high school kids? read more

Been here several times and have been pleased every time. I have also been to the Muldoon location. Way better than subway! The people are friendly and so far have not had to wait long. I signed up for the reward card, wish they would actually ask for it, because I forget. Another plus you get a free pita for your Birthday! read more

Needs improvement. The cashier takes your money but gives no direction. I did not know I was supposed to continue to convey my order again to to grill guys. It was confusing. The Gyro meat was disappointing, tasteless and crammed into the bottom end of my pita. There was a good array of fresh ingredients to choose. Maybe I'll try again with chicken. read more

Yummy Gyros! The staff is superb, welcoming, and friendly. I haven't eaten inside the restaurant but I feel welcome and comfortable waiting for my order. New favorite in the South side. read more

Super yummy pittas! I like the fact that I got to choose what went on my pitta and they actually grilled their meats and not just microwave like sub of the way. read more

We've been a fan since they've opened. Fair price and a healthier option if you want it. My husband doesn't like most healthy foods and he loves this place too read more

This is the first time I've been to a Pita Pit. The service was excellent in providing information on how it worked and what they suggested. The food was also very good. I felt the price was pretty high for what you get, so I probably won't go there often. But it was good. read more

The food is absolutely fresh and amazing here. Friendly staff every time we've gone. I highly recommend this.place to anyone who enjoys fresh and delicious food. Ryan dowdy read more
