Great food and service Fresh and delicious The lamb shawarma in a wrap is perfection
This is my go to spot for gyros in Brooklyn. Consistently delivers. There might be a better spot but when the craving hits I only hit this place.
For the price you're paying, the quality of the food here is amazing! The portion was heavier than I expected, which I appreciate it because I can eat a lot. I got my food within minutes of ordering. While there isn't a lot of seating area, there's just enough to potentially get some work done on your laptop.
Rotating lamb and chicken really brings the Mediterranean vibe. Kind of looks like a hole in the wall with old decor, several tables for you to dine in. Vast options of having your filling in a wrap, pita, combo platter or rice. Would definitely try their 9.95 lunch special in the future. The SO stated that the lamb wrap was amazing. However, my chicken combo was very dry. I really liked their cold eggplant appetizer. Filling portion and my favorite was their dessert - kunefe. I would come back to try their falafel but would skip out on the chicken. They even offer smoothie and juices. Note theirs a credit card fee, so better to bring cash.
It's a small little spot and I didn't read the reviews beforehand (rare for me, I usually do!) so I came in with minimal expectations. I was very happy with the result - the lamb shawarma pita was delicious! It was just packed with flavor and the bread was great. I'll definitely come back. Service was friendly and quick too.
Wow. I was expecting great food. I was not expecting this place to completely change the course of my day. I came here after walking 20 minutes to a doctor's appointment that I found out was scheduled for the following week when I arrived at an empty office. Frustrated, I figured I would grab a nice lunch and remembered Pita Pan is on my way home. I heard about it from the Park Slope FB group where several people swore it is the best falafel around. I arrived and was slightly overwhelmed by the large menu. The owner, Aladdin (yes seriously that's his name - I know, amazing), quickly noticed and jumped in to guide me through the ordering process. He made me a lovely shawarma salad. I then noticed the stuffed grape leaves, so I asked for a side order, but I called them "dolmathes," which is the Greek word for them. After noticing I spoke Greek, he suggested I try the baklava, so I ordered that as well. I made a comment, "Just like grandma used to make!" and he then made me a bowl of lentil soup free of charge. When he handed it too me, he said, "Just like grandma used to make!" My grandma, indeed, did used to make some bangin lentil soup, and their lentil soup was indeed also bangin. Overall, I was blown away by the kindness and compassion shown to me in the exact moment I needed it. It's safe to say Aladdin turned my frown upside down. And every single thing I ate was DELICIOUS. Definitely one of the best stuffed grape leaves I've ever had, and that's saying a lot. I will definitely be back to try more items on this comprehensive menu and to visit my new friend Aladdin.
Great place! They pack on the swarma meat into the pita sandwich. Sliced to perfection. So good n perfectly seasoned. We were starving so we forgot to take pics of the food for posting . The shepherd salad was tasty w just the right amount of parsley. The falafel is so well cooked, super crunchy outside. Super addicting. Always satisfying. Definitely give this place a try.
Best falafel around and still good. It was a few years ago I first went here. Pita Pan is one of many Mediterranean places in Park Slope. Despite the competition it's still around. The falafel is my favorite but there's lots other stuff here to try. Eating inside the restaurant is pleasant, but it's often a lonely experience. It seems most people get takeout. The pitas are portable so they're easy to carry with you. As for the platters, these are messier so they aren't good for eating on the go. The inside looks bright and clean so it's all right eating there. Another thing I like is that it's also a smoothie bar. It's $4.25 for the smallest, which is still a pretty big size. They can mix a lot of different fruits, and these are free of dairy too. As for the food I like falafel the best. It's $5.25 for the falafel pita. This is best with the creamy tahini sauce, which makes it a sloppy treat. Inside there's a window counter to sit at. It also has a few tables, but it never seems to be busy. They can also deliver to the neighborhood so you can access these pitas several ways.
