    When I first moved to Whitby, my coworkers were quick to introduce me to Pita Deli. It's a major hotspot in Whitby, particularly around the lunch hour; the line is usually out the door.

    Jimmy and his employees are superb. They possess a huge passion for their line of work and it shows as they crack jokes while prepping your meal.

    The pitas are too die for! My personal fav is the chicken schwarma w fatoosh salad and tzatziki.  You definitely get bang for your buck! The pitas are huge. I personally wish they'd introduce smaller sized pitas to their menu.

    If you're looking to dine in - be warned that there is limited seating, but don't let that ward you off from visiting this hot joint!

    I was told of this Whitby hotspot that suggested I get off the 401 before heading back West into the city.

    Boy am I ever glad I listened. This place had a double line of 20 ppl inside the store and 8 or so outside the door waiting to get in.  Now if this was Subway, good luck getting your lunch within your 'break'! I was out the door tho in under 5 mins!!!

    I really wanted a Chicken pita, but when I saw the way they microwaved the chicken for 40 seconds I said no way. Thankfully however the freshly heated Montreal Smoked Meat saved the day.

    I witnessed first hand the Montreal Smoked Meat as the meat slicer quickly ate away at the meat slab.

    Stuffed into a pita and then packed w Humus, Pickles, Fresh lettuce, tomatoes, olives and cucumbers. What a dream.

    $10 w a water. The pita was huge!!!!! "that's what she said..." but seriously, it was 3x's the size of any pita I've ever seen!  "that's what she said..." haha.

    A must go, but not too close to your diner.
    Seriously, this is the measuring stick for all pita joints.

    Ignore the last review. The owner and his son are great. Family run. A local haunt for the police department so quantity and quality rank high. Laughing while I ordered as the staff is funny. A giant falafal. I mean giant. I'm a big guy and it did me for two meals. The hit sauce is almost too hot. Ask for mild not medium. There is not hot hot sauce. Fresh veggies. Home made everything. Tiny. Only a few tables. Go. Trust me.

    This one of Whitby's treasures and well worth stopping into anytime you drive by on the 401 as it's right off the Thickson Rd. Exit. at NE the corner of Thickson and Champlain beside Don Cherry's.

    Family owned and operated by the Zahid family, this small lunch counter Pita shop has VERY FRESH ingredients everyday and is a HUGE value. I eat here often as it is close to work and while often busy at prime times, the atmosphere is friendly, fun and worth a few minutes wait.

    Chicken and Beef Shwarma, Falafel, Fatoush, assorted coldcut combo's, chicken and tuna salad all of which are HUGE and range from $5-$7 it's a bargain.

    Yes I am giving this place a rave review as everytime I go here I am treated first class, as a person and as a friend, which is not what you get at the fast food dumps our society has sprung up at every major intersection and who are only interested in Corporate profits.

    Final thing - If you like Hot sauce try theirs, but be warned it's VERY hot.

    Cheers.

    Indeed a huge value... A monster handful of flavour! Tons of fresh ingredients and loaded with garlic with hot sauce that is indeed hot. All fresh real breast meat and plenty of it.

    Have only had the chicken shawarma but it's an experience in itself and definitely one you do not want to try to eat on the run. Both hands and several napkins required.

    Family staff is hugely friendly and owner Jimmy a legend of sorts... makes this a nice experience rather than a grab and go.

    Limited seating but have always found one when I've been in.
