My husband and I love this place!!! So– to start with it is super clean! The owner is wonderful and what we love is that he always remembers our Favorite things that we usually order… how nice is that??? It makes us feel so good… that people who really care to remember is and what we like. Whatever we eat is always fresh and delicious and my husband has now been there over 7 times, literally. To take out for us or he ate there. Not one time was it off, nor hard to chew, nor over cooked etc… Every single time has been the delicious food. Chicken with hummus with a salad called(Fattoush).. Delicious! I will add a picture of the menu the next time we go. It’s a new place in Crowfoot(NW) and we are so happy that we finally have one of our favourite type of food 10 minutes away. Its Meditaranian food — you can eat there or take out. It’s also easy for my husband to eat there alone or take out when I’m not home or already ate — and easy to just stop for an easy fast healthy meal lunch or dinner… You’ve got to try it! Vine leaves were also really good! Oh the backlava is just sweet enough for sweet lovers or non sweet lovers. I love sweet– my husband doesn’t, but we were both happy as it was sweet enough for me yet not too sweet for him. You’ve got to try this place, it’s fantastic. We have only eaten at the Crowfoot restaurant so this review is for the Pita Basket in NW!

The falafel reminds me a bit of the Cedar’s Deli falafel, double wrapped in a couple thin pitas, filled with fresh vegetables, picked vegetables and tahini and lightly toasted in a panini grill. It was a very nice first impression, probably the best falafel in Crowfoot. The two guys working this evening were friendly, there was one table that seemed to fit a family of 10, a big screen TV on in the back of the room, and the whole place was nice and bright and new. Aside from the falafel, their menu has beef and chicken shawarma, shish kabob and shish tawook, family packs for $ 28 and 40-serving Mansif trays for $ 150! They have baklava, and baba ghanouj and grape leaves.

Today was my first time trying PitaBasket. I come from a middle eastern background and so I take my shawarmas seriously: p I must say the chicken shawarma was one of the best I’ve had in Calgary! Really nice, warm staff @ the crowfoot location, I’m sure the same goes for the other locations as I think it’s a family business. I found the menu items to be reasonably priced-very much so. Especially comparing to other shawarma/donair restaurants. I got 6 grape leaves for just 5 $, and they tasted much better than others I have had(excluding my mom’s of course). I would say, PitaBasket is a must try. Finally, a taste of home in the west of the NW. Thank you for the free baklava, delicious!

Very courteous staff, large portions. A tad pricey. Highly recommended. Watch your legs getting into the booth
