This was a mess last night when it was crowded as servers would attempt to fight through the people to deliver food. Horrible design that needs to change ASAP. 90% of all traffic in the restaurant goes through a one square foot area.<br /><br />Secondly, the owner/cashier had a pack of smokes sitting right out in plain view on the cash register. I'm a smoker myself so I don't mind as much, however this looks really bad. Just throw 'em behind the counter, out of view.<br /><br />And once again the food was delicious. Great place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-75132846578163578942011-06-21T09:09:25.245-05:002011-06-21T09:09:25.245-05:00I also have been super impressed and have been the...I also have been super impressed and have been their three separate times. This place has restored my faith in new restaurants in our area. I look back at places like Donna's and continue to cringe how awful it is. I hope places like Pita Heaven will do well so more businesses follow. The fact that a place like Donna's is even still open makes me wonder how the city gives out grants and tax breaks to certain businesses.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-50262044670440617252011-06-20T22:09:14.205-05:002011-06-20T22:09:14.205-05:00wow, 7 comments and no one has slammed the place y...wow, 7 comments and no one has slammed the place yet? incredible. let me continue the trend of positive comments. ate there with my wife last night. she had a chicken pita wrap and was quite pleased. i had the half chicken and oven potatoes. the oven potatoes were awesome and the chicken was solid. really enjoyed the food and the nice space. glad to have this place in the hood.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-90452868699666384742011-06-20T12:47:52.312-05:002011-06-20T12:47:52.312-05:00Went on Saturday night with 3 others and everyone ...Went on Saturday night with 3 others and everyone enjoyed their food!

It seems like all the new SL eating places is following this trend (Waffles, Scout, Tribute, and if their logo is any indication, Burger Pointe). In the north side, a simple pita place would look like a subway/Mr. Submarine. Thank goodness Pita Heaven has some style.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1167519580792566980.post-72505795269967968042011-06-19T10:34:23.135-05:002011-06-19T10:34:23.135-05:00Yea!
