Solid fast food joint! Girls were friendly, hooked me up with a loaded salad! Husband agrees… In IL we got the best falafels at a genuine Greek restaurant… Hard for fast food to compete! Pretty good otherwise though, go knowing it’s fast food and you will be pleasantly surprised!

4.5 stars for how well they explained the menu to me when I went in for lunch yesterday and how friendly they were but the food was just ok. Nothing fantastic but not bad either. I would say 3 stars for the food and the seating area is small if you don’t want just take-out. I got the regular size club pita. Comes with turkey, ham, bacon, cheddar cheese, peppers, tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, cucumber and mayo. Personally, I think it has to many ingredients to enjoy all the tastes of each one but you can ask them to leave out some. Also, the cucumber didn’t quite work for me in a pita. Just gave it a weird flavor. If I was to reorder it I definitely would have left that out. I also got the soup. I think it was called ravioli pumpkin. It was just ok too. The container it came in had a lid with a great seal so there was no spillage for the car ride home. Everything has the calorie count next to it on the menu which I love. One of the main reasons I went. But I couldn’t find any for the soup. They gave you a range of what the calories were for the soups but that doesn’t help. Also, they use water in their grill instead of oil. Love that! Might be a little pricey but you do seem to have to pay a little extra when getting fresh healthy ingredients. I wouldn’t go out of my way to go here again but I definitely wouldn’t be opposed to swinging in to grab a bite to eat if I was in the area. 3.5 stars

What a great find! Read the great reviews from fellow Unilocalers and I’m glad I took the detour. Fresh, friendly and a wide selection of good choices. Fast service and very tasty. I’m not in this area often but would come back. Did the double chicken shawarma which was delicious and was able to make it the way I wanted. With a big delicious pita and 2 waters for 14 bucks you just can’t go wrong.

Please. Pretty, pretty please with a cherry on top! Pleeeease open one of these in Westport, MA! Or if not here(for the beach crowd and all) open one of these somewhere in Southeastern Mass! I had such a pleasant experience here I can’t stand it. I was working at a home show nearby, and I had gone through my trusty Unilocal app with the woman in the next booth to see what was in the area other than the rip-off of a concession stand they had at the event. We stumbled across this place and… surprise! They had falafels! I was all of a sudden in the mood for a falafel, but it was busy and we didn’t have time to venture out. Concession stand it was! But oh no EP! I didn’t forget about you! The next day was slower, and we were more beat up at work from the long hours, so we were taking longer breaks. I ventured out in the snow, and finally spotted you, unassuming, in a strip mall of all places! You don’t belong in a strip mall! You deserve better! After the very nice gentleman offered to explain the menu, I got to work and described what I wanted on my sandwich. When I got to the end I had the choice of THREE different hummuses, and some ridiculous number of sauces. I chose the burbon chipotle sauce. I grabbed my free bag of pita chips from the rack(there’s a Unilocal check in offer there), he explained to me how to eat my sandwich, and I was on my way. Oh, you thought there was only one way to eat a sandwich didn’t you? Silly rabbit! Nooo, they have special packaging there that allows you to eat without getting it everywhere! I wasn’t a huge fan of the pita chips, there were just alright. They were homemade, and you could tell, with some of them not being cooked all the way and all. I got the jalapeño cheddar, and I didn’t care for the seasoning. It was bland. But if that was the worst part of my meal, bring it! I am never in this area, so they need to bring one nearer to me so I can eat here all the time! p. s. Add Tofu to the menu. p. p. s. I LOVE the fact that you only cook vegetables on one side of the grill. LOOOOVE it!

I am a huge fan of Extreme Pita! I have been going here for years and still haven’t gotten sick of it. There is a wide selection of pitas to chose from. I don’t feel as guilty eating this food because of how fresh the ingredients are. The service is always very good; they are all really friendly for the most part. One of the employees that has been there since I first started going always makes my pitas exactly the way I like them. Her name is Julie! If you are planning on going in and out very quick I do not recommend going in directly at lunchtime because the line is very long. Although it is worth it!

This place is next door to MyGym, a place where i took my daughter for a series of classes. As a result, I had lunch here weekly for a couple of months. It’s decent. There’s a lot of variety. Staff is always nice. It’s clean. Everything is just ok though. I’ve had the Shawarma and the Souvlaki, among other things. They’re ok but nothing blew me away. i wouldn’t go out of my way to eat here but if in the area, it’s not a bad option.

The chicken shwarma pita wrap was undeniably the worst thing I have ever eaten. I threw away most of it. It did not taste or look anything like shwarma: soggy nasty pita; tons of tomatoes and wilted lettuce and —3 huge pickle(sandwich style) stacker slices. PICKLES?

This place rules! The pita is very soft, veggies cooked perfectly, meat tender. The best part is that you can customize to your heart’s content. Today was the first time I’ve ever had Tabouleh. It’s delish. The ingredients are simple: parsley, onions, lemon juice, salt and pepper. They grill with water not oil so it’s healthier. Fresh ingredients and some are made in-store. Go now!

Looks just like Subway and tastes just like Subway with everything wrapped in pita, but costs twice as much. I checked in thru Unilocal to get the $ 5.99 special but manager there refused to honor deal. Won’t return.

I hate to give this place only 2 stars, but for now it’s the best I can do. My husband and I came here for lunch on a Saturday around 12:30. It wasn’t busy when we got there but did pick up while we were eating. First impressions: small parking lot and spaces for that matter! Inside the place there’s not a lot of seating which I was a little surprised at. Seems like this is mostly a to go place by the set up. I really liked the idea of this place so was eager to try it. I got some kind of Mexican pita and husband got the chicken shawarma. It didn’t take them long to make them and we sat down to eat. I didn’t like how the pita is so thick and heavy. I thought it would’ve been a little thinner and I don’t know, warm?! Both our pitas were almost ice cold and that was a huge disappointment. Being cold, it made them hard too. Maybe if they weren’t cold the whole meal would’ve been better but I wasn’t impressed with the quality of the ingredients. The lettuce was brown and wilted, chicken was grayish and chewy and the rest of the veggies weren’t ripe or fresh– like the tomatoes were almost pale pinkish white and flavorless and not a vibrant, red. color like fresh tomatoes are. I ate 3 bites and pitched the rest of mine. My husband ate probably 75% of his but he said he wouldn’t get it again and just ate it not to waste money and he was really hungry. I completely agree with the reviewer who said this is like the subway of pita places. Id pick subway any day over this place. Love the concept, but the end result just wasn’t worth it and a total let down.

In my attempt to find a decent falafel wrap in the Pembroke area, I trekked up to Norwell and saw Extreme Pita when I was driving over to Cedar Café, and whipped in here to check this out instead. I was not disappointed as the customization and available options to recreate a healthy falafel pita was satisfied. I did a build your own from their Freestyle Falafel, added the sauteed mushroom, pepper and onion, then added romaine lettuce, broccoli tomato, carrot, cucumber and feta with their hummus spread and a little hot sauce. It hit the spot and I will definitely be back. I asked about a whole wheat pita option and they said their pita is half white, half whole wheat, which works for me. I agree with Coleen that a marinated tofu option would be nice to have a bona fide protein option for the vegetarians. In general it was nice to find a healthy, quick option for some falafel wraps near Pembroke, because Pembroke itself doesn’t have anything like Extreme Pita.

The Chicken Souvlaki was really good. All of the staff I’d really friendly and helpful with the menu. I like how you can customize your pita.

Stopped in for the first time yesterday in a while. I’m huge fan of these pitas because they are delicious, healthy and cheap. I had my usual, falafel and Greek salad wrap, while my bf had the gyro. The falafel was a little bit off-tasting since the last time I tried it, but it was still tasty. My boyfriend really enjoyed his gyro. Extreme pita is definitely a great lunch spot and different from the usual sub shop.

Loved my first visit to Extreme Pita so much that I went two more times in the next week! I am very particular about falafel, and was surprised that theirs was so good. As a vegan, I appreciate the staff’s thorough ingredient knowledge and willingness to double check(for example, to be sure there were no animal products in the vinegar-based salad dressing). Everything is so fresh and crispy in their salads and wraps… you can actually know what’s in there and walk away afterwards feeling like you had a very healthful lunch or dinner. The last time I went, I got one of the flatbread pizzas – in my case, a hot pita with sauce and vegetables. They didn’t blink when I asked for no cheese, double checked that the pizza sauce was OK for my purposes, and proceeded to pile it with the toppings I requested – fresh tomatoes, spinach, black olives, and… perhaps artichoke? Or maybe eggplant. Can’t recall what they had, but that is my approximate usual pizza. Then they send it through one of those conveyor-belt-type ovens to cook. It came out great. One other nice detail for veg people like me – they have a sign on the wall indicating their practice of cooking meat on one side of the grill, and veg items on the other. I’ve never seen that before, and it gives me a good feeling that keeps me returning(well, that and the numerous great options for veg patrons!). The one thing I wish they would add: cubes of marinated tofu to their toppings/fillings options… I would have had that on pizza and on salad.

Apparently Extreme Pita is a chain… they definitely need to be more prolific around here! Everything was crisp and fresh, chicken was cooked fresh to order. The place was super clean and the employees very nice and accommodating. The thai chicken pita wrap was amazing!!! It was light yet flavorful and fulfilling. The caeser chicken pita wraps are delicious too. Highly recommended!

I’m really torn on how to rate this place. – The food – The taste is there. They do pitas, made to order, with some pretty delicious combinations. The portions are relatively small, but I guess that’s part of being healthy– portion control. Unfortunately, the price seems a bit high for what you’re getting, but I guess that’s another result of getting healthy, quality ingredients. – The service – This place takes the«fast» out of «fast food». Granted everything is made to order, so its not a McDs where they just grab a big mac and throw it in a bag. But somehow the assembly line they have going here just slows things down. Everything seems way too complicated and time consuming. On the plus side, I have not yet received an incorrect order but when I’m stopping in for lunch, I want to make it quick. – The décor – Not good. The place overall is cold. The menu boards are arranged that you can’t see the descriptions of the sandwiches until its time to order. And the tables are arranged that if there’s a line you’ll be hovered over. And forget trying to get seating for more than 4 together(2 is your best bet). Given the space and the layout, I suppose they’re doing the best they can, but its just not good. Overall, the food tastes good and will keep me stopping in from time to time but this isn’t on my list of regular lunch places.

If you are in the Hanover and Norwell area and looking for a great lunch spot, this is it. I’ve been sick of Panera lately — crappy service and boring food. We checked this place out one night and we were pleasantly surprised. The staff appeared to be mostly high school students but they were really friendly and even hooked my pita up with a little extra falafel when I stopped in before closing one night night on my second trip in! First and foremost, any pita is completey customized by you! While they have several«inspired» pitas, pick and choose what you please. Next up is the nutrition. It is clearly posted in the store and online. I had a falafel pita chock full of lettuce, peppers, cucumbers, feta, and Greek dressing. Hubs had a chicken Caesar wrap that was tossed in Caesar dressing and then put in the pita. The falafel and the chicken for both wraps were cooked on the grill which made warm pitas(the best kind!!) Our total bill was $ 14 and change. Since we were out running errands on our first visit, we took our sandwiches home and didn’t opt for the chips and a drink. It’s not exactly«cheap» but it is relatively healthy and certainly delicious.
