We checked out this newly opened restaurant off of Freret St around lunch time, the spot had a good amount of people but the service was speedy. The decorations look beautiful and the staff were amazing. Great Mediterranean food!

We ordered takeout from Pita Paradise for four people and we all really enjoyed our food. The chicken and gyro were perfectly cooked, the hummus had just the right amount of tahini. There was something for everyone — even our 8-year-old loved it!
