" I had the medium bowl with a mix of proteins, and it was stunning! Every bite was a taste of the Mediterranean. I was impressed by how fresh everything tasted. The staff was super friendly, even though they were busy. I’ll definitely be a returning customer. Plus, I love their commitment to vegan options! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for a quick eat without sacrificing quality, look no further than Pita-or-Bowl. You can customize your bowl to your liking, which is a huge plus for someone like me who has different dietary needs. Everything is made fresh to order and it shows! My only complaint is that on a busy day, the wait time can be a bit longer than expected. Still, the food is worth it every time. And don't skip out on the baklava; it's a must-have! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wonderful experience! The service was exceptional, so warm and welcoming. I tried their chicken shawarma, which was delicious but a touch on the dry side. The portion size was generous. Overall, I enjoyed the experience and would be back for the vegetarian options next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" The deliciousness of the food left me wanting more! Fast service, friendly staff, and authentic Mediterranean flavors that transport you across the sea. I ordered the mixed platter, which included everything from shish tawook to hummus, and was blown away! I’ll share my experience with everyone I know. It's an affordable option as well, making it a win in my book. " (*Curated Review*)

" I consider myself a Mediterranean food aficionado, and Pita-or-Bowl does not disappoint! The falafel is crispy, bursting with flavors, and the hummus is one of the best I've ever tried. The only downside is that the seating can get cramped during busy times, but that's a small price to pay for such delicious food! " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant is a gem for anyone looking for genuine Middle Eastern food. The flavors are authentic, reminding me of meals I enjoyed while traveling. The chicken shawarma was seasoned perfectly, and the pickled vegetables added a wonderful tanginess. I also appreciated the attentive staff who ensured we were satisfied. Overall, a great place for lunch! " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered a bowl to-go and found the food to be flavorful and filling, but a little less authentic than what I had experienced elsewhere. It might just be personal preference, as the food was still good. The service was prompt, and the staff was friendly, making the experience pleasant overall. I'd give it another try when I'm in the area. " (*Curated Review*)
