Every dish is made in-house from scratch, using traditional family recipes passed down through generations.
Our signature pillowcase Pita Bread is always warm, fresh, and perfectly complements our flavorful ingredients.

Adel prepares the best falafel, the best chicken shwarma, the best of everything that we have eaten at other restaurants that serve comparable food, even the very pricey ones. Everything is freshly made. Adel is a very engaging and friendly cook/manager and it is always a pleasure to see him and enjoy his creations.

If you’re looking for amazing food this is where you need to go. Grape leaves are amazingly soft and tons of flavor. Recommend this place 10 out of 10

Stopped in here because we were in the area and pitas sounded great. Best. Decision. Ever.
We had the chicken shawarma pitas which were excellent, but the falafel balls were the best I’ve ever had.
The owner was also very friendly and was chatting and joking with us and some customers that seemed to be regulars.
We’ll be stopping here anytime we’re in the area and hungry.
Haven’t tried it yet, but very excited for the Baklava we got for dessert tonight.

I used Pita Pocket Eatery for a catered lunch when I was struggling to find a kosher kitchen. Not only are they the nicest guys I’ve dealt with in a while, but the food received RAVE reviews! I ordered a little bit of everything from their menu and all of it was a huge hit! I will definitely be back (and so will the whole department I catered for!)

The falafel sandwich here is absolutely the best that we have eaten and we have been to a lot of restaurants that serve them. Also the service is great. I highly recommend Pita Pocket.

This place is Top Notch!!! Pictured here is The Hummus (Heaven to the palate) with some FRESH Pita Bread, Lentil Soup (Best I’ve had & Better than I’ve had in a four star full service dine in restaurant and theirs was good.) and the Hibiscus Tea Sweetened to Taste! This is a Five Star Halal & Vegetarian Middle Eastern Cuisine experience you can have without breaking the bank & at Home! Perfection!

Our food at Pita Pocket Eatery was outstanding! We shared the falafel platter (comes with authentic falafel, delicious creamy hummus, tahini, cucumbers, tomatoes, cabbage, and pita) and the most amazing french fries! We were pleased to learn that the falafel is vegan and gluten free. We wish we lived a bit closer so that we could visit regularly – we will definitely be back!

I’ve been patronizing this business for years. Adel is the best! I stopped in the Monday before the 2023 Easter holiday and was delighted to see my old friends and neighbors! I enjoyed living in the area and frequenting this cozy spot! My favs are the Falafel Balls with Homemade Pita bread, Chicken Shawarma that will make the taste buds on your tongue dance happily! This time I ordered all my favs plus vegetarian chili and lentil soup. Thank You Adel for the delicious meal and the treat (shredded phyllo dough with cinnamon and sugar) we enjoyed all of it!

I ordered a chicken shawarma sandwich and was incredibly satiated! It was so tasty, veggies were fresh, and the hummus is delicious. I’ll definitely be back and soon! Bonus that the older gentleman who made it/serviced me was so sweet.

Consistently delicious food, and very pleasant and friendly owner. The space is clean and quiet. Truly a gem of a restaurant, and I hope they are here forever.
