Pita Chelmsford

Since it's Taco Tuesday, I decided to go for a Greek Taco at Pita Fast Casual Greek in Chelmsford that opened recently. It's just a quick ride up Rte 3 for me.

So what's the name really? Here it looks like Piita, so this doesn't really work.

It's a small place with limited seating, and they were really busy at lunchtime.

The different rotisseries. They had an electric shaver to get the meat off.

I went with the beef and lamb and it was a good amount of meat. At this point, the manager went and took a phone order, and the meat was cooling off.

This finished product. The Traditional with Lamb & Beef (9.99). "Choice of Gyro meat, onions, tomatoes, tzatziki sauce & hand-cut fries topped with seasonings. All Gyros served on our fresh, homemade Pita bread". It was a reasonable amount of onions and tomatoes. I just wish that the onions had been rinsed to remove the acrid taste. The fries were cooked well and seasoned but were unsalted. The meat was tender but could have done with some seasoning. The tzatziki sauce was pleasant, and I'm not too fond of yogurt.

I also ordered a side of Greek Fries (5.49). "Topped with shaved Kasseri & oregano". They were topped alright which means that only the top layer gets the cheese. The oregano was completely absent. To finish it off, the fries were way overcooked. This was a bit surprising since the fries in the gyro was cooked well. You bus your own table, but I noticed that the tables were not wiped down between guests.
