The food was delicious and perfectly made with love and every single bite was eaten. Her food is reason enough to made a trip to Hendersonville and I will be back again very soon! ”
“ Food was delicious. Atmosphere was authentic and friendly. We were a few cents short on cash and the place doesn't accept credit and the cashier was lovely about it. ”
“ Full of character and charm, Pita Express won my heart the minute I walked in the door. It's a small restaurant with a fantastic vibe and absolutely delicious food. The falafel sandwich was one of the best I've had. A generous serving with all the right ingredients. I ordered a side Greek salad which was equally as good and has just the right amount of dressing and goat cheese - yum ! And the owner who serves you with a big smile is also a belly dancer teacher! Trying to talk my wife into some lessons...trust me you would not want to see me belly dancing. The food I consume these reviews tends to land directly there, it would not be very pretty I have to say, this is the first restaurant I've been to that offers actual lessons. Been to a few Morocon restaurants that had belly dancers, but let's not digress. Pita Express, a great place for lunch, and they serve what looks like a fantastic breakfast. I saw a lamb omelette on the menu, so I will have to come back for a visit! ”
“ I had to find a better way to eat and was told Mediterranean food was an excellent choice. I came in and ordered the lunch tray with lamb. Met new people, enjoyed the atmosphere and the Tea, the food was Awesomeness to my palate and made my Soul Smile. I needed this new kind of "Home Cooking." If you need to eat better try this food! ”
