Pita Bar + Grill - Mediterranean Restaurant Brentwood LA

This place is great every single time!

My honest review on Pita is that the food is somewhat bland and overpriced, and the sports bar ambience does not go well with the Mediterranean menu. My recommendations for ownership would to revamp the menu with some unique dishes that are more flavorful and make the trip worth it. They should also consider adding more creative cocktails with better presentation to spice things up. The lights could be dimmed in the evening, and the music selection could be improved to create a better ambience worthy of the prices. The TVs are also distracting and add to the sports bar vibe so I would get rid of those too. Overall, I think this place has potential. I really want it to succeed, but I think they need to make some changes to really get return customers. I would totally return to try it again and leave a new review if management makes some changes.

Ordered the mixed combo with a side of lentil soup and baba for a couple of hangry truck driving types (co-pilot in photo) and this truly did not disappoint! I am somewhat of a middle-eastern food snob as I have been eating and making it for over 50 of my 60 years and this is so very good I would be proud to say I had made it myself. A lot of “middle-eastern” places serve food that is more “inspired by” then the actual thing, and after you add in a bored line cook the recipes become very blah. Not so here, all the items are spiced subtly but correctly, even the saffron rice which almost always tastes like rice with yellow food coloring at most places.The spicing on everything was done to perfection- subtle but prominent and easily distinguished from each other. Rare that I give a five star, especially when I order it from a delivery service but these people have hit it out of the park. Well done, Habibi!

Best Mediterranean restaurant with great cocktail

Kid-friendliness: Kids love this restaurant Wheelchair accessibility: I am a wheelchair user and it was accessible for me.

Hidden Gem! It’s my friends and I’s go to for a night out. We usually get the mixed appetizer plate with drinks or a few different entrees so we can try different plates since there are too many yummy options to choose from. Parking is very convenient and food prices are fitting (around $20-$30). Servers are nice and the service is quick. I’m already planning the next brunch.

Good food, good quality, good customer service Vegetarian options: Very good vegetarian option, like falafel, different kind of salad, soup and salad combo, dolmeh, hummus Parking: Street parking, free garage parking

Been going here regularly. Foods and drinks are bomb. Highly recommended.
