My to go order was ready when I got there. Parking can be challenging. There was a long line to order so I felt happy we preordered for lake out. Food was good and big portions. Travelled well and still takes great? Lots of flavors and items.

12 piece wings

I was craving Greek food after my Seaworld trip and found this place on Yelp. There's paid street parking in front. We did a pick up order and it was ready when we arrived. They were jamming some cool hop vibes and this place seems super chill to hang out. I got the Doner basket mixed meat, extra protein for $2, and mixed fries, my bf got the 12 piece wings. The server was super friendly. The food was fantastic and worthy of the phenomenal rating. I loved all the sauces. My plate was loaded with food. It did come with a falafel which was perfectly crisp just not my thing. I really liked the gyro meat, next time I'll skip the chicken shwarma. I loved I got the fries with all the fixings plus some lettuce. The wings were seasoned so well and the best I've ever had. This is my new favorite place.

Final decided to try Spitz in pb and I was honestly surprised. My friends and I ordered a wrap and a salad, and both were pretty good. The portions were much bigger than we expected so we didn't finish and had leftovers. They have an indoor and outdoor area and you go up to order food and they'll bring it out to u with a number. The staff was nice and the food was good and felt pretty healthy for Mediterranean street food. I will be back!

Really cool spot with vegan options within walking distance of the hotel. Service was awesome. Got a medi bowl with falafel, with quinoa, chickpeas, pickled onion, cucumber, hummus and olives. Ample portions, I had leftovers for later.

My mouth ate before my phone. Delicious. We did the monday night special. Beer + gyro + side for only $20. It was all delish. Sweet potato fries were fire!!!

Natalie G.

Ambiance was great! Staff was really nice too but the food was just not as authentic in flavor for Mediterranean food. Honestly the sweet potato fries were my favorite! Bowl was pretty good. I think if I go back I would check it out for a happy hour. Their deal looked great!

OG gyro, quinoa salad, IPA
Lynn S.

Service is very friendly and fast, which is impressive bc they're usually pretty busy (lots of pickup orders too). They have a solid happy hour and a good local tap list. I've tried their OG gyro twice - once w the lamb/beef mix and once w the chicken. Both so good, ingredients taste fresh, and pita is soft and warm. Quinoa salad was also well seasoned and filling. On happy hour, I believe the gyros are only $8 and the quinoa salad is only $4!

Tried the Berliner wrap and the street cart wrap with regular fries. The fries were a bit salty, but everything else tasted great. The staff was super friendly and helpful while ordering and even checked on us after we got our food, which you don't usually get at a fast-food-style spot. My favorite was the Berliner wrap--very generous portions and great for sharing. Tip: sign up online with your phone number to get a buy-one-get-one offer. Great location!

The Spitz Gyro
Olyvia K.

We were so happy that we came to Spitz on a weekday between 3PM-6PM because they have an incredible happy hour! My husband and I got $9 gyros and $3.50 pita strips and humus! I saw a sign about Tuesday specials and those are really great too. Service was super fast! The seating was nice where you can sit at high top chairs, a booth, or a standard table with wooden chairs while getting fresh air for the open garage door. There is cool eclectic decor with neon lights and vibrant art on the walls. We really loved the gyros! The pita bread is so good. The hummus with the pita strips was good too. Great prices especially during happy hour! It was super fast from when we got our food and staff were really amazing. Highly recommend!

Medi bowl & fires
Crystal M.

This places puts cava to shame! If I ever crave Mediterranean food- hands down coming here! I had to force myself to stop eating bc it was SO SO good! Idk what they cook the fries in, but hands down best fries I've ever had!!! 10 Im obsessed!!!!! Chris and Aiden are great!!!

I was in the area and needed some lunch, and saw this pop up on Google Maps. It was a Tuesday and around 3:30p, right before Christmas Eve. The place was empty; the cashier was super friendly! There's a Happy Hour special on weekdays starting at 3 through 6. So my partner and I got the OG Gyro, Spitz Gyro and the fried pita strips, for a total of ~$30, including tip. They've self-serve water, I appreciate not having to wait for water service, in case they're busy. The music is lovely, there's no vocals so it feels more vibey and lo-fi. No need to talk over the music. Okay but the food: do not skip the fried pita strips. They're so good, the texture reminds me of beignets, fluffy and a tad crispy! The seasoning is delicious, I wish there were more after I finished them. The OG Gyro is exactly what you'd expect: fresh lettuce, tomato, feta, very fresh and healthy with beef and lamb. The Spitz Gyro is more savory and saucy, I thought of it as tomato-y with fries and beef and lamb.

berliner bowl, Mediterranean wrap, sweet potato fries
Emily Z.

Casual spot in PB for healthy modern "Mediterranean" food. Berliner bowl: It has a lot of veggies and pickles, the flavor profile was quite sour even though I added hummus to it, comes with extra sauce which I didn't feel it needed. Mediterranean wrap w/ beef & lamb: My husband got this and he liked it, also thought it was quite healthy Sweet potato waffle fries: These were soooo good! I think these were a little less greasy than waffle fries from elsewhere, comes with a great sauce as well. Overall I wouldn't come here if I were craving actual Mediterranean food, but I would stop by for a healthy bowl or some sweet potato waffle fries.

The Spitz Gyro
Erica C.

Overall, solid place! I enjoyed their food with my favorite being the gyro pita sandwich. Street cart doner wrap was fine but maybe too much veggie for me. Wings were standard, nothing special. I love that they offer a variety of sauces at no extra charge - my favorite was the garlic aioli. Vibe was great on a Friday night. Lots of people just hanging out with friends here. Parking is a little difficult since it's PB, but just pray that you get lucky finding a free spot on the nearby residential street. They offer an email sign up promo (either 50% first order or BOGO free so try to search for that promo link to create an account with them).

I can for the viral Wagyu Shawarma Cheesesteak. It was very tasty with a mix of peppers, onion…read morecheese and sauce. Whatever sauce they used gave it a bit of spiciness. I went at 3:30 pm on a Saturday and was surprised that it was pretty busy at that weird time The sandwich was huge ( probably 12 inch sub) so depending on how hungry you are, you could easily split it. I loved the fries. Whatever seasoning they used gave is perfect

Man I really wanted to like this place due to all the rave reviews. Our first experience was mixed…read morewith some meats being great and others dry beef bits that weren't very tasty or appealing. Our second experience we got the chicken shawarma Brian's way. Everything was cooked well, but I guess although I like pickles, I'm not as big a fan of Mediterranean pickles. The first bite or two were actually good, but subsequent bites the pickle tanginess was overwhelming and just not so pleasant as I finished it. I thought maybe I'll get it without the pickles next time. However, after eating I got an unexpected headache that usually comes from ingestion of MSG. The fries were tasty... maybe there was MSG in those? Not sure. I've honestly had much better phenomenal shawarma in San Joes CA. I have yet to find a great Shawarma here in San Diego. Feel free to recommend.

Soooo Delicious!!!…read more Service was excellent!!! Owners made all the food to order and served the dishes to everyone. They interacted with all the customers, explaining the menu, and giving recommendations. They were very friendly and welcoming. Food was DELICIOUS!!!! Everything was made fresh to order. I came for brunch and ended up overeating... it was soo good, I couldn't stop. I ordered some tea, a bowl of amazing garlicky Foul (pronounced fool, an open faced meat pie (lahm bajeen) in the flakiest lightest crust I've ever had, and super sweet and extra cheesy Kunafi with Kaack for desert. I was so impressed, I ordered dinner to-go (Stuffed kusa (known as mexican squash) and stuffed cabbage). Large beautiful dining area, great for small or big groups. Warning, parking is tight.

They do Kunafa well but their people skills need a bit of work. I went in last min to get a Kunafa…read morefor the family and understandably if they were too busy or whatever they could have simply said "no, sorry" and life would have moved on. But instead the whole ordeal (because that's what it ended up being) was very uncomfortable and unsavory. When i put my order in, the kitchen responded with a slew of insults in arabic, upset about the last min request. Me being mixed race, my appearance doesn't scream 'arabic speaker' and to be honest my arabic ain't perfect but i knew i was being insulted and that clearly the last min order was a problem. I had told them it's okay i understand it wasn't a good time and subtly hinted at being able to understand what was happening, which ended up making things even weirder. Instead of them taking the out i gave them, they insisted they could make the dessert and while i waited I was put to a test to see if i truly understood what had been said about me. The woman in front and the man in the back both took turns talking to me in both english and rapid speed arabic to test how much i could have possibly understood. I was in shock and smiled my way through the very strange interaction because i was still much too shocked to even formulate a proper emotional response to the rudeness. The moment I got the food i took it with a smile (still) because it was ramadan and it wasn't worth breaking my fast over and i haven't looked back. Now even tho it's blocks from my home I just go to El cajon if i want kunafa or anything else they offer. Other than that the place inside looked nice and again the kunafa was tasty but that was unfortunately my one and only experience there.
