Uncle Leo's South Shore Pita Grill — Attraction in Town of Hempstead

This food was PHENOMENAL. It was a quick decision to stop in and order take-out for lunch, but I was floored by how good this place was!! We got the grilled chicken platter, falafel platter, side of lemon potatoes and rice pilaf. Everything was literally incredible.

The pita, was warm, and the generous-sized veggie patty, was very good, with lettuce, and, cucumber, tomato, and, onion slices. All was quite satisfactory. I’m looking forward, to trying the lentil soup, next time, and, will order the veggie patty platter, again, a nice...
