" Decided to try out Pita Express for a dinner date. The atmosphere was lovely, very cozy and not too crowded. The food was delicious, especially the baba ghanoush, which was creamy and well spiced. I ordered the chicken shawarma, which was good but not extraordinary. Overall, a pleasant evening with solid Mediterranean food. I'd recommend it but wouldn't say it's the best around. " (*Curated Review*)

" Pita Express is definitely worth checking out. I had a lovely lunch with the falafel wrap that was stuffed generously. The taste was authentic and reminded me of my travels in the Middle East. Friendly service, and the atmosphere was buzzing. Wish they had more drink options though. " (*Curated Review*)

" Pita Express has quickly become a favorite spot for me. Their baba ghanoush is delicious and a must-try! I typically order the mixed grill, and it never disappoints. The atmosphere is inviting, and the service excellent. I appreciate how they take pride in their authenticity! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I'm a little torn about my experience at Pita Express. While the food tasted good, I found the flavors to be somewhat lacking in depth. It didn't quite capture the authentic Mediterranean experience I was hoping for. On the plus side, the service was fantastic and the atmosphere cozy. I might give it another shot to see if it was just an off day. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally tried Pita Express after months of hearing about it, and unfortunately, I was underwhelmed. While the service was pleasant, my meal felt rushed and lacked the authentic touch I was hoping for. The chicken kabob was dry, and the sides just didn't shine through. Maybe other items are better—I'd be willing to give it another chance! " (*Curated Review*)

" Pita Express is an absolute gem! I was blown away by their chicken shawarma and falafel wrap. The flavors were incredibly fresh and authentic, something I've been longing for since moving to Chicago. The staff was super friendly and made me feel like a regular, even though it was my first visit. I can't wait to return and try more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Pita Express exceeded my expectations. I tried the chicken kofta wrap and the spices were perfect. The service was fast and friendly, making my dine-in experience enjoyable. The only downside was the seating which was slightly limited during peak hours, but the food definitely makes up for that! " (*Curated Review*)
