Pita Way - Mt Pleasant — Restaurant in Mount Pleasant

I stopped into Pita Way in Mt. Pleasant for lunch and ordered a gyro, and I couldn’t be more impressed! While the setup allows you to build your own meal, similar to Subway, the similarities end there. The food is freshly cooked on-site, bursting with flavor, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality.

As someone with a background in food, I was especially impressed by their commitment to food safety.

Hopefully this changes because I would love to give the place another...

Food was ok, everything was a little cold. The girl working seemed annoyed with questions about ingredients that I wasn't familiar with. The sign clearly states up to 3 sauces with the bowl and I asked for them on the side since I wasn't sure if I'd like them, she said she would put them on the bowl for free but if I wanted them on the side she would have to charge me for them. Hard to want to douse a meal with sauce if you're not sure if you'll like it. My boyfriend asked for dark meat chicken and I asked for light meat and she mixed the 2 meats in the portioning cup. Seemed pretty expensive for what it is, 14.99 for a bowl. The fries were pretty...
