I haven't been to Pita Pit in the loooooongest time. It must have been at least a few years. I was seriously craving a pita from there because I love the option of them adding pineapples to a pita.
I went to the Kennedy/Lawrence location and it was disappointing. Although I appreciated the cute glittery Halloween décor, the restaurant itself seemed fairly cold like they are trying to save on heat. Not very comfortable if I wanted to sit down and eat. And I can't quite understand it , but there's an air about that place that seems kinda dirty.
I figured I was already there so I might as well order. I ordered the Southwest Chipotle Chicken Pita. It's grilled chicken tossed in Southwest Sauce with grilled peppers, onions and mushrooms and then you can add whatever other topping once it's off the grill. The toppings looked quite fresh from where I was standing. I've been to a few Subway Locations where the toppings didn't look as great so I was happy to see Pita Pit took pride in the fresh veggies. After I ordered my toppings I walked to the cash and this young dude charges me nearly $10 for the pita. I look at him and say "Ummm I got the 6inch" and he rudely says " Oh! Well you're supposed to TELL me that!" and then reduced the price to the $6 that it SHOULD have been for the size pita I ordered. I kinda gave him a bizarre screwed face because I wasn't expecting that answer and the rude tone. You would think he'd ask me what size I got instead of assuming I got a foot-long pita. He kinda laughed it off after because I think he realized I wasn't impressed.
I ate the pita and it was great going down! Tasted VERY good! I was so content happily munching on this tasty pita but not long after my stomach started having a horrible reaction to what I ate.
Without getting into too much detail...let's just say the Pita got me VERY sick. I have no idea why though. My only conclusion is that something may have been wrong with the chicken. Maybe it was expired and old? Who knows? But I have a very strong digestive system and RARELY get sick like that. While I wouldn't boycott Pita Pit all together I'd definitely boycott THAT location.
