Pita Pit

Not many other Pita places out there but Pita Pit is definitely awesome when I’m looking to eat something cleaner and still on the run with my busy schedule. I wanted to put up this review specifically for this location because it’s mainly where I go. First of all I do want to comment on the food. I’ve never had any issues with the freshness of the vegetables. They are consistently fresh regardless of what time I step foot in the place. Second, there is quite the variety of sauces you can try which I really do appreciate. Now, the main reason for this review is because I wanted to commend the gentleman who works there. I have no idea what his name is… average height Caucasian man with long-​ish hair and wears glasses. He’s always there (no offense) and no one else that works there looks like him. He’s worked there for a while and I don’t go on a regular basis but I can always count on him greeting me with his friendly smile each and every time I walk in there. He engages in conversation and he’s quick at making my pita or salad. He’s super knowledable about the menu which is also awesome. I know, I know… what’s the big deal right? But now a days, with the service I’ve encountered at fast food restaurants. I can’t appreciate them too much. So it’s really comforting to know this guy seems genuine and is consistent in how he treats his customers. I don’t think it’s customary to tip at fast food restaurants but the tip option is on their debit/​credit machine, and I am that much more apt to tip a little something with his great attitude. Dude, if you’re reading this… keep up your hard work! ! and THANK YOU!

It is what it is. I am never disappointed, and never blown away. I have been to this location three or four times.

Just ok.

This is a great, nay the best, place to grab pitas in downtown with more than fresh ingredients — including spinach :)
They recently moved 2 blocks away to 1508 4^th Street SW.
This is just a block north of 17^th ave sw on 4^th St.
Follow @pitapiton4th on twitter to get in on their deal list too :D
(Just like @Charcut’s alley burgers.)

I LOVE the Pita Pit. It’s one of my absolute favourite places in the city because not only do they serve reasonably-​priced and delicious food, but they serve HEALTHY food. That makes my heart happy.
My favourite thing to order at ‘The Pit’ is the Garden Pita with Hummus and swiss cheese. OH MY GOD. SO good.
It’s the perfect meal to grab and go. It’s not messy, so you can feel assured eating and walking down 17^th.
The only thing I wish is that The Pita Pit carried an egg salad pita option. As if that wouldn’t be SO good eh!!!
Ah well, with or without the egg salad, it’s STILL the bomb. Hell, I’m heading over right now!

Reasons to go to Pita Pit:
1. Deliciously fresh pitas
2. You pick everything that goes on your pita. It is the Harvey’s of the good for you food. You want a fish eye with hummus pita**?It’s yours!
3. The service is decent
4. It is within stumbling distance of 17^th Ave’s best watering holes
5. They won’t kick your drunk ass out at 2:30 in the morning
6. Last time I was there at 2:30 am, the counter guy was kind of hot. (call me!)
** Not actually available. They only use land (chicken, beef, pork, lamb, turkey) meat there. Or vegetables! Pita pit is vegetarian friendly!
And might I recommend the chicken pita? Simple yet delicious.
