This place is on the way home from work so once in a while I will pop in. I always see a help wanted sign on the door and always see different students working there mostly from South America. The food is so so and the service is slow and no one smiles or are that friendly– only when the owner is in i noticed everyone is on their best behavior which is pretty funny to see, he’s really nice but not in often.
I either get the chicken shawarma or the falafel wrap-​both the chicken and falafel wraps seem to get smaller in size every-​time I’m there– they also seem pretty stingy with the falafels for some reason I noticed and its always crumbled or broken into crumb size and then sprinkled in the wrap– weird.
At the end of the day it’s just ok. I’ve had way better that’s for sure…

This place is just okay I got to say. It will not be the best shwarma you’ve ever had nor the worst.
SERVICE
The service at this place is pretty slow… it usually takes me about 15 minutes to do takeout. Which isn’t long I guess… but longer than I want to wait for fast food.
FOOD
The beef is not the type of beef swharma that most people are used to. It’s kind of this ground, homemade and put together style of beef. It’s okay… the chicken swharma is really good though! I appreciate how they cut the meat and grill it for you!
The potatoes are also pretty good! Often times, I see people go up and order just more potatoes. The rice is okay… they literally make it in advance and pop it into the microwave.
PRICE
For what you get it’s just okay… I think it’s about $ 11.99 for a plate now and you have to buy the pita bread. There are definitely better spots but unfortunately in the East end the options for swharma are limited.
QUANTITY
As other people have mentioned the quantity you get has decreased. They are kind of stingy with the rice, potatoes and sides. The meat is hit or miss though… some days you get a lot some days you get less.
Would I visit again? Yes… but it’s more of a convenience thing. I wouldn’t go out of my way for it.

Ambiance: pretty chill, clean, tidy
I had a salad and it made me feel sick.
Tasted pretty decent at first, but it was really greasy
Don’t know if its the minced beef they put on it or if it was their greek dressing… probably a combo of both
MEAT WAS NOT COOKED PROPERLY.
The minced beef they topped my salad with had pink in the middle and burnt on the outside. (how do you f up minced beef?)
but anyways. I won’t be going back.

I’ve been to two Pita Land locations in Vaughan and they were far superior in terms of food and service. It was slow here. They didn’t even have any manager specials like the others.
My biggest gripe is the potatoes… these ones have no flavour at all. The other places make them spicy and garnish with herbs.

The food is good, but the employee who served my boyfriend and I was unbelievably rude.
My boyfriend told the employee that he really enjoyed the food at the restaurant and recommended it to his friends. The employee in turn began making insulting comments toward us, telling us that the food wasn’t very good, and calling my boyfriend’s compliment «sneaky» and «backhanded».
Overall, the food is really delicious but unfortunately due to the rudeness of the employee, we will not be visiting the restaurant again.

Been coming to Pita Land for years. The chicken shawarma is the best I’ve had and the price is fair. Ingredients are fresh and chicken is cooked perfectly. The side items, pop and chips are a but over priced, and not worth the extra money for their portion size.
The new location accepts debit cards now, unlike the old store which was cash only. The staff are great, and remember me all the time.
If you frequent by Pita Land, ask for a VIP card; buy 9 Pitas and the 10th is free!

The sandwiches keep getting smaller. A pita with extra meat (extra $ too) still seems smaller than what their regular pita used to be. It’s a shame, because their shawarma still tastes good

Beef Shwarma was pictured in a pita, and I didn’t get that. Just shaved compressed meat on lettuce. Who the hell wants that?
Guy, sell what you advertise, ok?

My husband and I went to Pita Land for lunch this week.
We decided on Chicken Shawarmas.
They weren’t bad as you could certainly taste that the meat and the veggies were really fresh, but even though I got some sauces to spice things up I felt everything tasted a bit bland.
The staff is really nice.
It’s cash only. But they have an ATM in the store.

Great Shawarmas, the place is clean and food is great. Never has failed me for a quick bite in between classes.

I was giving my brother a lift to a recording studio on King east and we decided to grab a quick bite before his session. We were hoping to find some sushi but after walking a few blocks along King between Sherbourne and Jarvis and not finding much that was open, we settled on Pita Land somewhat disappointedly. As soon as we took the first bite of our chicken shawarma pitas, we were pleasantly surprised. The chicken meat was extremely juicy, tender and flavourful. The hot sauce and garlic mayo were also delicious. We ended up ordering a third pita and splitting it. The guy was even kind enough to saw our pita in half with his awesome electric shwarma carving knife. It looks like they have 7 locations around Toronto so if you’re looking for a quick bite and you happen to be near one of them, you won’t be disappointed.
