Pita Grill House

Pita Grill House in Merrick is celebrated as Long Island's first fully halal Greek spot, blending authentic classics with inventive fusion creations. The menu features customizable pitas and bowls alongside staples like gyros and spanakopita. Standout specialties include mozzarella-stuffed gyro egg rolls ('gyrolls') and spicy feta feisty fries.

Audience reception is overwhelmingly enthusiastic, with many commenters expressing eagerness to visit and specifically praising the creative gyrolls. While the sentiment is broadly positive, a handful of viewers debated the restaurant's authenticity, pointing out ownership and noting that traditional Greek gyros traditionally feature pork.
