What Guests Say
Guestbook
“ Amazing staff and a great atmosphere. George hosted me and was genuinely kind—more like a friend than just staff. He took the time to help me choose, and both the beer and the food were excellent. I really enjoyed the experience and would happily come back. ”
“ We had lunch at Just Pita in Athens. The portions are quite large, definitely more than enough for us. The food was okay overall, though we found it a bit heavy because of the sauce. Good option if you’re very hungry, but it might feel filling if you prefer lighter meals. ”
“ So nice place. Food is tasty (chicken gyros not dry like in many other places) and the waiter very kind and understanding. We ordered mixed plate and we akres no pork and this was not a problem. We will probably come back during our stay. :) ”
“ Stopped at this pita place for dinner on our first night in Athens and it was THE BEST place we ate at during our stay. Nominal pricing, great service and good food portions. Highly recommended. ”
“ Three weeks ago, my friend and I flew into Athens and had to take the train to downtown. It was packed like sardines. On one unexpected bend, I (and many others) lost my balance and almost bumped into the young man’s face in front of me. Regaining control and discovering what a handsome young man he was, I leaned over to my friend and said “Wow! I certainly didn’t mind bumping into him.” Never thinking he understood me. Two days later, we decided to eat at JUST PITA restaurant and lo and behold there he was! I blushed and realized that he understood what I said on the train. We ordered and enjoyed a delicious meal! Then I had to have a photo. Thank you for your service, and great meal! You and your brother have a wonderful establishment in an edgy area that offers a lovely ambience. Thank you! ”
