Pita Press - City of New York

Sadly this place continues to disappoint even after giving several retries. Meats are over cooked and fatty. Breads are low quality. Sauces are near vacant. Price is high and service is apathetic. I literally threw my last order in the garbage after one bite. Such a shame.

A little pricey, but nothing out of the average NYC pricing portions are pretty generous, loads of feta on the greek fries, which I loved the chicken souvlaki platter was tasty, not super authentic, but enough to satisfy the craving. We ordered delivery and food came prompt neatly.

Pita press, I’m not impressed. I ordered the lamb and beef plate, the meat was in small strips, very dry, small portions. It was all beef and no lamb. I was better off going to the street carts than this place. Then I asked for a little more tzatziki’s sauce and they charge me for a tiny cup for $1.99. Place is very high priced and the food was awful.

Pita press is close to vacationing on a Greek island eating that nice juicy meat, or their gyros. I am glad its in the neighborhood. They food is very authentic, great flavors, lots of greens and proteins. Has option for vegans as well. I love their prasini salad with some grilled chicken souvlaki. It the perfect portion and size. Ive also order their family meals, and wow i had leftover for the next day. Portion feeds 4 people. Highly recommend this spot for takeout, when your fridge is low. Quality of food is on point! Update 12/22/21 i needed something that would give me energy and keep my tummy warm. I had the Greek fish soup. It was tasty, flavorful, and just the right amount. 5/5.

Today was my second time ordering from this place. The cod pita that I got last time was surprisingly good, which was why I decided to come back. The chicken souvlaki pita I got today, however, needed a lot more work. While the pita was delicious, the chicken was stiff and bland, and the veggies in it felt more like sad sticks one would have on the side than a part of the wrap. I was disappointed given the positive impression I had on my first visit. I wished the food quality were more consistent.
