La Pita

Food: 5/5
Service: 5/5
Atmosphere: 5/5.

La Pita is a special place to eat. If you're into Mediterranean food, your searching stops here. The wall decor, the smells, the service, the small details of the meat and hummus, all was delicious! My family and I had the Lamb and Beef Shawrama; there's also a kids menu, so there's food for everyone. Although a tide bit pricey, the taste was worth it. You can taste and smell the grill and char of every bite. I appreciate the accommodation of them making me "feta fries" as this was not on their menu. My only complaint is the portion. Once you eat everything with the pita bread, you will be full and comfortable. Overall, it's a great place to eat!

Absolutely delicious food. Everything fresh and home made. The garlic yogurt sauce was incredibly rich and amazing... We bought a take home container haha. The son who served us was super fun to talk to and his father is the chef in the kitchen! It was our pleasure and we look forward to coming back!

Love the food. Soup was as authentic as you get, Salad was fresh crisp and delicious too. I'd recommend ordering Shawarma as a sandwich instead of a lunch plate. Falafel and Hummus were both delicious. Service could've been a tad more pleasant, but since it's a family owned place I understand as hey might be busy running everything. All in all 5 stars, definitely recommend if you're craving Mediterranean.

Our first time there yesterday. We’re from South Bend but I work in Benton Harbor, I looked up a healthy place to eat at and La Pita showed up. So I looked at the menu they had beautiful dishes and good pricing. What I wanted was the chicken wings. My husband and I went there, there was only one car so we left, he wanted to go somewhere else but I said, let’s go try it. We went back went inside sat down, an Asian waiter with a big smile and an old man behind him. I thought it was a father and son. Anyways, the waiter was a very good waiter. Good at his job, making people feel welcome. Well! I didn’t have my glasses on so I said to my husband, it’s Mediterranean food own by Asian people? 😊 he said, no the chef is not Asian. Anytime an older person cook food for you, guarantee its good. The food was O for Awesome. I love grilled chicken, so tasty and so tender. It wasn’t salty I didn’t taste any salt. My husband ordered a falafel sandwich, it was great. The lentil soup was great no salt just simple and tasty. The salad was great. I’m going there again and I’m going to order something else. I don’t eat salt anymore and La Pita is the only restaurant that I know their food ain’t salty. Just a simple seasoning and some extra TLC. The food was onolicious.

This place was so amazing!!! I've never had such fresh and homemade-tasting Mediterranean/ Lebanese food before! I appreciate how the restaurant is family run, and everything is super fresh! The quality of the food felt unparalleled by a lot of restaurants in the Michiana area. When deciding what to order, our waiter was super helpful, and the food was ready quickly. I definitely will be coming here again!
I recommend their smoothies and fresh juices as well as the shawarma.

Nice and clean place on top very hospitable & welcoming owner. Food was so tasty and succulent we got the combination family size for 5 and we still had plenty of leftovers for next day. Without a doubt a great gem in St. Joseph MI.

Boy did we luck out! Craving Mediterranean for weeks then, thanks to Google, WALA! While on a project at Whirlpool, we ducked in for a quick lunch. I couldn’t decide, everything looks so good, so I had the sampler.. No words can describe how perfectly prepared, delicious and satisfying it was. Just take a look at the pic. Tabouli, hummus, baba ghanoush and Fattoush! It’s Saturday, going to St Joe, Mi to check in on Whirlpool project today, with my wife. We’ll definitely do lunch…She’ll flip out, YOU WILL TOO! Don’t get much better than this.

Amazing Mediterranean food! The falafel sandwich is a must try! Hits the spot perfect every time! This is my go to spot when I'm back in SWMI visiting my mom. The babaganouch or hummus is a great starter when you have 2 or more people.

I'm in from out of town and my in laws got us dinner from La Pita. It was incredible! The food presented was beautiful. We ordered a meal for 6. 8 people ate, and we still had almost half left over. And the taste was amazing. Fresh and savory flavors and tender meat. Highly recommended!

Best Lebanese restaurant!
Food is homemade, fresh and delicious ingredients.

Such a surprise. We were on a trip and our bodies were filled with junk food. This was such a wonderful meal, refreshing, their spice used enhancing food’s own flavor, their hummus and pita are especially good, the flavors were rich and fresh, I think it’s not easy to made such simple food delicious. We ordered a combination for 2 people, that was a lot of food, and good food. If I live anywhere nearby I would definitely visit again.

Quiet place. The BEST hummus and lamb I have had. Large portions.

I visited St. Joseph for the first time this week and was recommended many restaurants to try during my stay. After not being wowed by any suggestions, I stumbled across La Pita while looking for a place to eat last-minute. I ordered the Falafel Dinner with lentil soup and it was incredible. On top of everything, the staff was friendly; the food came quickly; and the atmosphere was homey. If you like Lebanese food or are in the mood to support a deserving business, go here!

Excellent Mediterranean Specialities. Fast and friendly Service. Chicken Shawarma with rice was Very Tasty and well seasoned without being overly Salty. Fresh salads. Will be back!

Good meals and staffs.
They have own butcher. You can trust completely HALAL!

Every time I have ate here (which is a significant amount) I have always left happy and full. I cannot emphasize enough what a hidden gem this place is. Everything is always so full of flavor.
Robbie is one of the most friendly people I have ever met and is always super accommodating and helpful!
I would say easily this is my favorite restaurant in Saint Joe.

This has been my boyfriend and i’s first place ordering a shawarma. And it will most definitely be the only! Soooo delish!!! Filling and healthy. Coming back and we do not even live close.
outstanding service

Great food and great service, will definitely go back!

I love the food.. always fresh and tasty!

We are here from out of town, and had a family meal delivered. WOW! This place has some great food! Everything was packed nicely, and so much flavor!
