Mona Pita

Absolutely delicious! Great meats, especially the lamb! The hummus and Baba Ghanouj is the best I have tasted.
Desert is homemade and tooo good.

The staff are friendly and accommodating.

Really wish I didn't live 7 hours away.

Mona is a sweetheart and was very welcoming and you can tell she puts a lot of care into this place.

That being said, I would rate the food here good, not great. I may be wrong but the rice that came with the meal seemed like one of those boxed mixes and maybe not as authentic as what I've had in the past. The chicken kabobs were great and the hummus is very tasty. The soda machine was down the day we were there and they had limited options for drinks so we had to walk over to the Papa John's a couple doors down to spend $3 a pop on a couple diet sodas. Also, the menu is really off putting because of all the items that are crossed out with sharpie or revised pricing written over what was originally in the menu. When you walk in and see that on top of the soda machine being out of order it makes you wonder about the quality you are receiving.

I gave it a four because I think Mona is putting decent, mostly authentic food out, but had the food been any less the stars would have dropped quite a bit based off of what we experienced.

Yes, I came back with photos this time. As you can see, I didn't make it past the first bite, but I promise I will next time LOL I absolutely love this place. The service is always so amazing and friendly. The food is so fresh and mouth watering. I barely made it out of the parking lot, and I surely didn't make it down Capital Blvd. I'm always supportive of a family-run establishment and Mona can have my money when it comes to my belly any day. I can't wait to bring my Mom here to try the food!

The food was delicious! We tried a lamb gyro and Chicken Shawarma platter and both were so good. We will definitely be back!

Excellent food. Love the hummus , falafel , tabbouleh. The Turkish coffee is so good. The owners are a cute couple who are so hospitable.
Will be back for sure !

Stopped in for a quick lunch last week with a friend who was visiting from out of town. We both had shawarma lunch combinations that were quite tasty and prepared to order. Ingredients were fresh, dining area was small but very clean and comfortable, and the staff was very welcoming and warm. I am not in that part of Raleigh often, but I will definitely return to try other items.

This is the best beef kebab I've ever had in my life and the mom and dad shop five was amazing. The hummus is silk and the grapes leaves devine! And all gluten free!!

I love the food from here! I have only ever gotten delivery or takeout from here, but every time I love what I get. I normally get the lamb platter and that is delicious every time. My husband has gotten the gyro and fries and loves those too. Whenever I pick up, the lady that works there is extremely nice and my food is always ready on time. Great service!

A late lunch and a very empty stomach, we stumbled upon Mona pita. And got to meet Mona herself, who is absolutely so kind and wonderful.

We were not sure what to order, so I asked her for her favorite recommendations. We got to try the lamb platter, and the chicken kebab platter. We also got a side of falafel, and of course for dessert... Baklava.

The chicken was juicy and tender and flavorful. It came with a great side of yellow rice, and a Greek style salad. Pita and hummus also! A great value for a nice platter of food.

The lamb was very delicious, same sides on that platter as well. The favorite was the Tahina yogurt dip that comes with the falafel. I would highly recommend getting extra cups of that and dipping everything in it! A great find if your belly is empty, and you want some delicious Mediterranean style food.

Ordered delivery. I don't know what this is, but it's not Greek food. TL;DR: Taziki's is the better move.

Anyway, I tried:

+ Chicken Gyro Sandwich
+ Lamb Gyro Platter
+ Shawarma Platter - this was decent
+ Chicken Kabob Platter
+ Chicken Fingers Basket with fries
+ Mozzarella Sticks with fries
+ Large Greek Salad - good
+ Grape Leaves (3 pieces)
+ Orzo & Feta Pasta Salad
+ Tzatziki with Hot Pita - awful, like salad dressing
+ Hummus with Hot Pita - good but had something really spicy in it
+ Babaghannouj with Hot Pita
+ Baklava - this was strangely the best thing we had, would recommend

Very confused by their amazing rating - maybe we just caught them on an off night?
