Pita Inn offers some of the best, most reasonably priced Mediterranean food in the Chicago land area. Pita Inn has been in business since 1982 and has locations in Skokie, Wheeling and Glenview. I have been to each of the locations although my review focuses on the Glenview restaurant since I used to frequent this location on a weekly basis for lunch.
Pita Inn is a pretty basic place that offers counter service and is perfect for a nice lunch or a quick dinner. They do have a large seating area that is pleasant and very clean and also have a small outdoor seating area. It is hard to describe the exterior of the restaurant but the location in Glenview is unique and eye catching. It almost looks like some sort of temple.
Pita Inn has an excellent selection of Mediterranean specialties. I regularly enjoy their hummus which is served with homemade, warm pita bread. In addition, there are numerous salads (Jerusalem, Tabouleh, Yogurt) available with the same wonderful Pita Bread.
Some of my favorite menu items include the stuffed grape leaves, the beef or chicken shawarma entrée or sandwich and the chicken fatoush salad. Their falafel is also excellent. The business lunch special is an excellent value. It is offered from Mon – Fr from 11 AM to 3 PM and includes a combination of shish kabob, kifta kabob, shawarma and falafel served with rice, salad and pita bread. This is a lot of food and it is only $3.95. It offers a great opportunity to sample a variety of the items on the menu.
Pita Inn is a fantastic value. You can get a solid portion of good food along with a drink for between 5-10$ dollars per person for lunch or dinner.
