Good, inexpensive pita wraps
Don’t bother looking for “Pita Mediterrean” on a sign out front. The restaurant’s sign actually reads “Pita Wraps.” Yes, just like the other “Pita Wraps” on Poplar near Mendenhall. The guy that used to run that place sold it and opened this new store next to the Burger King where Goodlett dead-ends into Park.
I’m happy to say that the food is just as good at the new location—and just as plentiful. Plus, the food is about $1 cheaper per item than the location on Poplar!!! Suh-wheet!!
The restaurant isn’t anything special inside, and the decor is a clashing mash-up of minimalism paintings paired with photos of animals from the BBC’s “Planet Earth” series. But hey, they at least made an effort!
Despite the lack of a themed decor, the restaurant’s interior is very clean and orderly. The Health Inspector gave them a 95 on the last inspection, which is well above the average for restaurants in this area of town.
Overall, this is a very nice little “mom and pop” pita wrap place that thousands and thousands of people drive past each day and won’t ever discover what they’re missing. The owner is very nice, eager to get your business, and appears to be relying largely on word-of-mouth for advertising. (That latter bit could be a fatal mistake. He should probably advertise on the nearby college campus.)
Dishes Tried:
chicken shawarma pita wrap
Don’t be surprised if the guy that owns the store recommends this wrap to you. He almost certainly will.
Imagine a chicken shawarma pita wrap almost as big as a Nerf football. Okay, maybe not that big, but it’s definitely going to fill you to capacity and then some. Crammed with fresh vegetables and hummus and sauces, be sure to pick up some extra napkins for when the juices go running down your arms.
If this dish wasn’t so darn cheap and filling, I’d give it just 3 stars because the chicken seemed just a little on the bland side. However, I’m biased towards the lamb, so this could be my own personal preference.
I’d take this dish instead of fast food burgers or subway in a heartbeat.
