In town for a conference and decided to give this restaurant a try after reading the excellent reviews. Great authentic Mediterranean food! I tried the lamb shawarma and was not disappointed. The lamb was flavorful, juicy and cooked to perfection. My choice of sides were hummus (Chickpea puree with tahini, garlic and spices), Mediterranean Salad (Tomato, Cucumber salad with red onion sumac and lemon; Mediterranean rice, Cabbage Salad (Green cabbage with carrots and vinegar), Fried Eggplant and Tzatziki Sauce (Yogurt sauce mixed with dill, mint and cucumber). The “plate” portion is huge and comes with a warm fluffy pita bread. The restaurant staff were courtesy, friendly and efficient.
Came here because of a friend's recommendation, and it didn't disappoint. Absolutely great shawarma! The beef pita shawarma was on point. All of my fellow diners loved their dishes. The plate portions are robust and the topping selections are numerous. Will definitely eat here again.
This is probably my favorite lunch restaurant downtown! The food is truly delicious and the owners and staff are always so friendly and kind! Their falafel is so good, and it’s vegan which is awesome, and they have lots of great toppings and a couple vegan sauces too. Five stars, I love this place!
I have a deep love for the halal cart outside the court house when I’m on jury duty but…I think Pitamore may have them beat! It’s a few bucks more but there is so much customization and so many options. Plus the pitas are excellent! All this on top of having an efficient system in place that works even during the lunch rush. I loved this place and I’ll be back!
The Shawarma is amazing! There are no shops around where I live that sells them, so I gladly travel to the City to get it! Pitamore has a good variety of choices and friendly staff.
Almost 5 stars. Only complaint is that I asked if ALL the toppings and sauces were included, as their sign says. When the server rang up my pita it was $2 more( almost $14) than I was expecting. I asked why and she told me the feta is extra. No where does it say feta is extra or not included and $2 for a very little amount of feta???
The beef and lamb pita was excellent and they have a very generous selection of ALMOST FREE toppings and sauces.

Found this place while doing jury duty service downtown. Incredible! This is some of the best Middle Eastern food I have ever had- including in the Middle East! What a Baltimore gem! I cannot wait to go back. I hope this is a Baltimore restaurant staple for years to come.
Delicious and light Mediterranean style food can be enjoyed here. We ordered the falafel plate with hummus, baba ganoush, pickles, and shredded cabbage, which also came with a plush and warm pita. We also tried the chicken plate with similar toppings. Everything was fresh and flavorful.
These sandwiches were so delicious!! We got a spicy falafel and a mixed shawarma pita and both were really tasty. The spicy sauce on the falafel was so flavorful and the portion size was amazing. The mixed shawarma pita was stuffed full to the brim of chicken, lamb, and beef and it was incredible. The ratio of meat to toppings in the pita was like 4:1 and that’s how it should be!! The toppings that were in the pita were also very tasty - fresh, seasoned, and added the nice vinegar and crunch that was needed in the pitas. I wish that the falafel was maybe a touch crunchier, but that definitely could be a result of transportation/delivery. The pita was also very good - soft, but it didn’t fall apart under all of the fillings inside. The two little containers had tahini and (we think???) some sort of tzatziki sauce. The tahini was very standard - creamy, sesame-y, delicious. The tzatziki (again, no idea if it was actually tzatziki it just tasted of dill and herbs and so that was our first thought) was also flavorful, if a little thin. This was a great experience! I’m excited to try more of the menu.
This place looks like some corporate Subway/Chipotle place from the outside, not sure what the backstory is, nor do we care, cuz the food is effing amazing. Best Falafel (outside of Amsterdam in DC, RIP) in Baltimore area.
