| - I have been eyeing Eat a Pita for a long time now. It always seems to have long lines of people waiting outside.
I finally decided to check this place out. It's a tiny little shop with people working behind the counter including an extremely friendly man who seemed to know everyone that walked in and happily chatted away to all of them while he prepared everyone's order.
I walked in to find a long line of men in front of me. Not a woman in sight which made me a little bit nervous (what did they know that I didn't?). I ordered the $5 lunch special (chicken, rice, a salad and a few veggies, tahini sauce, hot sauce, watery salad dressing and barely recognizable tzatziki sauce that comes from a giant tub.
This place is not for you germaphones, I found a hair in my meal, but the food was decent. Having said that, the lunch market around here is competitive and I'd rather spend my money at Picnic or Salad Days.
I understand the draw, decent portion, very friendly staff, quick service and a price you really can't beat, but this place just wasn't my cup of tea, even if it was just $5 including tax.
