10890 Westheimer Rd, Houston, Texas 77042MY REVIEW: I visited 1/30/2009 was very pleased, very freindly and prompt service, ordered a beef burek and a pita with fries, everything was cooked perfectly and absolutely delicious, very pleased with he portion sizes, hey, i’m a big guy : especially enjoyed the burek and the fries that came with the pita, very tasty, I lived in Europe for a year in the 80’s before the fall of communist Russia and had the good fortune to travel to what was then Czechoslovakia where I enjoyed many excellent meals, Czechoslovakia is now Czech Republic, Bosnia, Croatia, Serbia/Herzegovina, Montenegro, Etc. so I am happy to report that the wonderful flavors of the food I ordered from Cafe Pita were pretty much dead on from what I remembered from my visit to Czechoslovakia, great job guys, i’ll be back to try the cevap next week 5 stars. Visit Cafe Pita, you will be pleased.NAME: mr. creosoteSUBMITTED: 1/30/2009 LAST VISIT WAS: 1/30/2009FREQUENCY: Visited once

10890 Westheimer Rd, Houston, Texas 77042MY REVIEW: We went on personal recommendation of Sunset M’s review below. This place is superb example of the wonderful diversity of cuisine we enjoy in Houston. Having never experienced Bosnian food, we were looking forward to it.The filled pastry appetizers one meat, the other with spinach/cheese were so delicious. Pastry was buttery, crispy on the outside, and filled with perfectly seasoned fillings. These were HUGE We definitely overordered.”Meat lovers pizza” do not be fooled by the name, although meaty, this is not something from pizza hut was wonderful, if a bit salty from all the toppings. Aged ham, sausage, pepperoni with just a bit of onion for sweetness. Not sure what kind of cheese it was topped with, but the flavor was nutty and sweet. Crust was again tender and crispy.The lamb shank was served with roasted vegetables and buttery white rice. Unfortunately the meat and potatoes were chilled in the center. They obviously braise this slowly in advance, but had not reheated it properly. This dish was rather bland. I don’t know Bosnian cuisine to know what is correct for a dish like this. I was sorry we hadn’t opted for the waiters recommendation of the daily special which was a roasted lamb dish.We were stuffed, yet ordered the baklava. This is NOT a greek baklava. The filling had different seasonings and probably walnuts Not pistaciho. They tout their homemade phyllo pastry which would be great except they put the finished dessert in the refrigerator to keep it fresh as long as they can. What should be flaky crisp delicate layers of pastry turned into sopping wet gloop.Some of the dishes were executed flawlessly. Others need rethinking. Either way, the prices are shockingly low, portions are huge, and the overall effort so earnest that I can’t wait to go try more things.Bring a little patience and your own bottle of wine. There was one very busy waiter serving the entire small dining room. That said, our food came out in a reasonable time frame.NAME: festusbodineSUBMITTED: 3/17/2008 LAST VISIT WAS: 3/14/08FREQUENCY: Visited once

10890 Westheimer Rd, Houston, Texas 77042MY REVIEW: My friend and I went for dinner on a Monday night. We were greeted and seated immediately. The owner came over and we asked him to choose for us since we had never had Bosnian food before. For starters we received the fried anchovies with the red pepper dip and the feta cheese plate with olives, tomatoes, olive oil and spices. We loved every bite and asked for more of the fabulous bread. For our second course we had the stuffed cabbage rolls that were perfectly seasoned and then came the wonderful pizza with a beef sausage, smoked beef and mushrooms on a great homemade crust. For dessert we had the rice pudding with caramel sauce might ask for it warmed next time and the baklava. Everything we had was delightful and tasty, even their version of lemonade, which had a hint of grapefruit. I love it When you are there, Omer, Viviana & Steve take great care of you It was my first visit of manyNAME: JanSUBMITTED: 1/9/2008 LAST VISIT WAS: 1/2008FREQUENCY: Visited once

10890 Westheimer Rd, Houston, Texas 77042MY REVIEW: We went for lunch, having seen positive reviews from Alison Cook and Rob Walsh. My spouse and I shared the fried cheese appetizer, which was delicious – four good sized pieces, lightly fried in breadcrumbs with a red pepper puree for garnish. I had the cevapi, a house speciality, which is a sandwich of kofte-style sausages in puffy, soft bread. Once again, delicious, and a generous portion too. My spouse had a stuffed version of the same thing, with a beef filling. It tasted remarkably like a cornish pasty a great treat for us Brits and she enjoyed every bite. We shared a piece of home-made baklava for dessert. It was similar in appearance to what you might get at any Middle Eastern restaurant, but was much less sweet and had more nuts. I really liked it – sometimes baklava is so sweet you can feel your teeth decay as you eat it, but not this one.Weak points – I tried a Macedonian beer but won’t again – it was like a cloudy budweiser. My spouse had a coffee but it had been sitting in the pot for too long and was undrinkable.We’ll certainly go back and take friends, too.NAME: Andy BrickellSUBMITTED: 12/9/2007 LAST VISIT WAS: December 2007FREQUENCY: Visited once

10890 Westheimer Rd, Houston, Texas 77042MY REVIEW: What a gem I’ve never had Bosnian food before going to Cafe Pita, so I can’t compare or guage “authenticity”–but who care’s when the food is so tasty and interesting you can’t wait for the next bite. We started out with the mixed appetizer–peppers, cheeses, and cured meat–terrific And the fresh baked bread will make you abandon your low-carb diet forever. The night we went there was a lamb shank special that was out of this world. The Turkish will grow hair on your chest. It’s BYOB, but don’t worry if you forget to bring a bottle–a liquor store is next door. The strip mall facade leaves something to be desired and you have to kinda hunt for the restaurant. But once you’re inside, you’ll be taken care of by a very friendly and attentive staff, and you’re taste buds will thank youNAME: celesteusSUBMITTED: 10/20/2007 LAST VISIT WAS: 09/2007FREQUENCY: Visited once

10890 Westheimer Rd, Houston, Texas 77042MY REVIEW: I really enjoyed Cafe Pita. Lunchtime was busy, with a very large group in this very small restaurant. Seeing the large group, I was afraid we would be in for a long wait. However, service was efficient and friendly. We had the eggplant dip for appetizer and the cevap for main dish. The food was very good – the bread different and delicious, and the beef & lamb sausages in the cevap were perfectly seasoned, tender, and flavorful. For under 20, we had a very fulfilling and unique meal, with leftovers to take home for dinner I will definitely be back to try other dishes.NAME: JJSUBMITTED: 10/11/2007 LAST VISIT WAS: October 2007FREQUENCY: Visited once

10890 Westheimer Rd, Houston, Texas 77042MY REVIEW: My first visit to a Bosnian place, came all the way from Beaumont, I already love Lebanese & Turkish cuisine, so I also love Bosnian take on cuisine. I tried the Cevap on the lepinja bread, with 8 fresh grilled Cevap link sausages on the delicious homemade bread with sides of chopped onion, ajvar roasted red pepper puree, and kaymuk goat cheese like spread it was all good. Next time I will try the kebabs or the pljeskavice burger. The place was small and charming, good service, and a very beautiful dark haired lady serving the food, so everything is all good. I will be back.NAME: JasonSUBMITTED: 9/16/2007 LAST VISIT WAS: 09/2007FREQUENCY: Visited once

I loved this little cafe It is definitely a &quotHidden&quot treasure across the street from Target. I had the Gyro which was REALLY good. A lot of places make the lamb too spicy and with too much pepper…theirs was perfect. My friends purchased the cevapi sandwiches and that was just delicious The hummus with the cevapi bread Heaven I only wish I could have tried the chocolate/hazelnut crepe…Lent… There is still a lot of work to be done with this little cafe. The food is great, and the service was extremely welcoming and friendly, but they do lack experience, so just as one person said about being waited on last I can see it being an honest mistake. It’s a very relaxed atmosphere, but it’s a place that will take up a good 1.5-2 hrs. Enjoy it Plus, if two cute girls walked in, what man wouldn’t want to wait on them first If you’re in a hurry, call your order in, pick it up, pay for it, and eat it outside on the patio Anyways, I didn’t feel like I was being discriminated against due to my ethnicity. Just remember…we all ble ed green to them anyways… : GREAT FOOD

Cafe Pita is Houston’s ONLY Bosnian restaurant in town. Whatever you decide to eat at Cafe Pita, you will notice the richness of the flavours you thought you knew. Bosnian cuisine is a hybrid of two famus food traditions, Slavic and Middle Eastern. Cevapcici or Cevaps is Bosnia’s dish of choice and our recent buzz and praises of our best selling dish is becoming a hometown favorite for many locals. The Cevap is made with ground beef mixed with savory and flavorful spices and formed in to sausage style links. When paired with our supplied fresh homemade lepinja bread, you’ll feel the taste of the most famous grilled dish recognized in the whole world. Our extensive menu of wonderful dishes will be sure to make your mouth water. We dedicate ourselves to great food and customer service and when you dine with us, you’re treated like family.

I know close to nothing about Bosnia and the food they eat. I imagine many other Americans know equally as little. After my visit to Cafe Pita, I know now that though the names may change a little bit, the food is fundamentally the same, but just as good when executed correctly. As I perused the menu, I settled upon the cevap, which the owner helped me pronounce correctly che-vap. It’s essentially homemade sausages they look like little breakfast sausages, but you better believe these were not made by Jimmy Dean piled upon a homemade flatbread called lepinja. Some onions and sour cream were offered to dress it up, but it’s a simple dish. I’m not one to tell an entire culture how to eat, but the sandwich presentation was impossible to eat – they all just fell out. Wrapping those puppies around a piece of the lepinja like a tortilla did the job very well.I’m definitely not Bosnian, but I am all about exploring new cultures through they food they eat. Cafe Pita offers simple but fresh cooking that everyone would do well to explore. Business seemed a bit brisk when I visited, but when that Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives episode airs, Cafe Pita will get the recognition it deserves, and then some.

I want to become a regular at Cafe Pita. The small eatery resides in a strip center and is practically hidden from Westheimer traffic by another building. I have never had Bosnian food before, but assumed it had to be good based on the reviews of Cafe Pita and the fact that the Food Network paid them a visit. We ordered the eggplant dip, fried cheese, the spinach burek and the veggie pizza. The eggplant dip pretty much baba ganoush was delicious the bread served with it was fluffy and just chewy enough to make me want to forgo the meal and eat a basket of bread The fried cheese was good and had a very unique flavor. If anyone has been and can identify the spice, please let me know as I am puzzled The veggie pizza was good the toppings were fresh and the crust was wonderfully crisp. The burek was the runaway star of the meal. For 5 you can select your filling: meat, potato, spinach or cheese. The filling is wrapped in a tender, flaky puff pastry type crust and comes with a tart, butter-like spread. The portion size was enormous, we actually had a complete second meal the next day with our leftovers For the amazing food, you would expect to pay more, but our meal was under 25

Caf Pita, meza maid, may I inquire discreetly, when are you free to take some tea with meAn unassuming exterior can only keep a place hidden for so long before the food starts to catch people’s eye, like a diamond from the rough. Caf Pita has been written up in the Chronicle, the Press, and just last month Guy Fieri paid them a visit to be featured on an upcoming episode of “Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives.”Walking up to the restaurant in an aging Houston strip center, you’ll see a couple of tables sitting out front – which would be great on a nice day – before entering the smallish interior. We were able to seat a group of 6, but most of the tables accommodate 2-4. The menu offers dishes recognizable from other Mediterranean establishments, but Caf Pita is more specifically Bosnian. The hummus for example is served with lepinja bread, which is a thicker, pillowy cousin of pita bread, dusted with flour. I elected to start with the roasted eggplant dip, like hummus, or really baba ghanoush, with olive oil and seasonings mopped up with that delicious bread. For the main course, I was torn like the Balkan states between the gyro and the pljeskavice – which is pronounced… Bosnian hamburger. I couldn’t resist the gyro, which came in a lepinja pouch stuffed to the gills with savory lamb and beef gyro meat, tzatziki, with tomato and onions on the side. Thankfully one of my tablemates couldn’t finish her pljeskavice, a grilled beef patty with a nice char on the outside, which, for 1 more, you can get “stuffed” with cheese, mushrooms, and onions in the center, all between two pieces of bread, toasted golden brown, with a spicy eggplant sauce on the side. Not quite your standard American fare, but I’d easily put this up against other burgers on my list. Apparently it was Fieri’s favorite dish on his visit, and in honor they’re now offering it buy one, get the second half off. Not a bad deal at all, even if you can’t pronounce it. They also have fresh, traditional pizzas on offer, which will have to wait until my next trip.

Truly a hidden gem in west Houston. Phoenicia gets all the pub, but if you’re looking for a slice of the Mediterranean, Cafe Pita is a worthwhile alternative. As the other reviewers have mentioned, the place serves Bosnian food, which may or may not make it the only Bosnian restaurant in Houston.Their signature dish is the Cevapi, which is like Jimmy Dean sausage on steroids. It’s a sausage made from a blend of lamb and beef, and it’s absolutely delicious. At 7 for a sandwich, it’s a little steep on the wallet as for me, I went with the cevapi beef kabab special for 10, which was doused with a delicious tomato cream sauce. If you’re price conscious, they feature a gyro sandwich for just 5 and a burek filled puff pastry for just 4. Even the not-always-on-the-menu lamb shank will set you back just 16. Also worth mentioning is the wonderful pepper eggplant dip that came with our delicious fried cheese appetizer and the girlfriend’s chicken kabab place. It truly gives tzatziki a run for its money on the dipping sauce hierarchy. There’s so many other amazing sounding dishes on the menu, I can’t wait to go back.The only minor quibbles are the slight overreliance on salt, and the fact they keep the door open, inviting mosquitoes to partake in their own little feast. Besides that, if you’re not already completely sold, this place is BYOB. And it’s right next to a liquor store. What more do you need Go already

I didn’t even know they made Bosnian food. I mean, I knew they HAD food in Bosnia, but I didn’t know they…whatever, anyway, I was coaxed into visiting Cafe Pita what’s the deal with the and it was fan-freaking-tastic food.I only recently discovered how much joy I take from the food of eastern Europe and am still in mourning over the loss of Cafe Montrose, so this was perfect timing.I started with the fried cheese, which was crispy and salty and served with a delicious red pepper sauce. My entree was the burek, which is a puff pastry pita stuffed with your choice of beef, potato, spinach/cheese or cheese. I went with the beef and was not disappointed though I’ll definitely try the potato next time.This thing is giant – the size of the bottom of Yao Ming’s shoe sliced in half. The flaky crust on the outside is a perfect balance for the hearty, well seasoned beef mixture inside. They serve it with the red pepper sauce and a wonderfully decadent butter/cheese mixture. ANYONE who combines butter and cheese and serves it with meat and bread is a friend of mine.My friend had the cevap, which is like a pita sandwich with pita bread and sausage links made from lamb and beef. I liked these even more than my pita and mooched accordingly.The service was friendly if only a tad bit slow, which was fine since it gave us time to eat all that and the soft, airy bread they brought out in a big basket before the meal. I didn’t get the chance to try dessert since I barely made it through a third of my pita, but the dessert menu looks awfully tasty. Next time…and there will most definitely be a next time.

After reading the great reviews I decided to try this place out since it was close to where I live. I love finding those unassuming places that serve great food for a reasonable price. Unfortunately, it wasn’t what I’d hope it would be. The place was uncomfortably hot. There didn’t appear to be any a/c, the only means of air circulation was a fan which just blew hot air and the smoke from the kitchen. I ordered some sandwhich which had meat in the shape of small sausages. The portion was very large, so I cut it in half and took the other half home. The bread was good, tasted like chibata bread, but the meat was overcooked. It came with a side of onions and cream cheese. I don’t like onions, so I just tried it with the cream cheese. I definitely left the place not feeling satisfied.

YUMMYWhile I was looking for a good place to get some Hummus close to the house, I stumbled upon Cafe Pita today for lunch.To say that this is a small place would be an understatement. The dining area has about 8 tables and they share the same space with the kitchen. It’s a unique and cozy set up and the staff is very outgoing.If you’re on a budget, you have to eat hear. The food is very reasonably priced. I had a gyro and an order of hummus and it was 8.10. I hear the pizza here is great but I have yet to try it. The hummus was not the best I have ever had but it was quite delicious. As for the gyro, simple and delicious. I will be back for more as soon as I can go.Come to think about it, I’m a little hungry now. Time to try the pizza…

Bosnian Restaurant.The food was fresh and homemade tasting. In a word, totally honest. Additionally, the prices are low less than 20. Grilled sardines: AMAZING. butterflied sardines marinated for 24 hours in olive oil, and “secret” spices. Some of the best sardines I have eaten. Plentiful serving as an entree accompanied with basmati rice good quality, and roasted vegetables.Stuffed cabbage: cabbage pickled for 48 hours and then stuffed with ground beef and rice. Pickled taste reminiscent of kimchi, very filling. Cabbage wrapping was great.Fried anchovies: whole small anchovies bought that morning, fried with a light batter. Slightly bitter tasting probably the fish, not sure but served with plenty of fresh lemon.Eggplant dip: roasted eggplant – tasted like grilled eggplant but not a super grilled taste I’ve had in middle eastern places. fresh, with lots of lemon.The baklava is Bosnian style. Pastry and filling are made in-house. The walnut/honey stuffing is very wet compared to middle eastern baklava but much less sweet which made it a great dessert for me. They also have a version with rose water, more akin to middle eastern baklava.Turkish coffee – served in a quaint copper coffee pot, and little copper and porcelain coffee cups. It is excellent for Turkish coffee. As a tip – pour a little cold water into your cup, and the floating grounds will fall to the bottom of the cup.The bread is pita style on steroids i.e., fluffy , made every day, sometimes risen 4 times depending on the day’s humidity. As one of the staff said, making the bread is like handling a woman, you never know what her mood will be that day sexist comment, but perhaps a propos with regards to bread making.Although it is 17 miles from me, this is the neighborhood bistro I would like to be able to walk to any night of the week. It is located in a strip mall, off of Beltway 8, next to a liquor store which helps with the BYO status. it is small with 15 tables or less. Omer the owner/chef I presume is unassuming and extremely friendly, which made the experience even betternext week they are opening a Bosnian food store nearby. EVOO from Montenegro same stuff they use in the resto will be available for sale.

After reading about Cafe Pita in The Houston Chronicle, my mother immediatly wanted to try this place out. So one afternoon my mother, sister and I went out for a Bosnian style lunch. A small but cute restaurant, Cafe Pita is hidden inside a strip mall, located next to a liqour store. Don’t let it’s location fool you into going someplace else, they have great food here You can literally smell it from the parking lot. This place is so small the ‘kitchen’ is as big as a bathroom and is out in the open x But it’s cozy and homey. On to the food: we ordered a spinach burek and hummus for appetizers. The burek was tasty, and the hummus was good too. Then for lunch I ordered a chicken kebob plate, and my mother and sister ordered two 10″ pizzas to share one was bosnian style then the other one was vegetarian pizza. The only bad thing was that the waitress forget my order or gave it to something else, so I ate the pizzas my mother and sister ordered instead but no biggie, since there was still alot of pizza left over. I didnt like that she didnt apologize for messing up the order, but whatever, I looked over that mistake. The prices here are so cheap, that this whole lunch cost less than 25 Plus, it’s located very close to Nippon Daido a Japanese grocery store, which I think is so cute and great for Japanese ingredients :D Anyways…back to Cafe Pita….I can’t tell you how authentic our lunch was, since this was the first time we have ever had Bosnian food, but what I can tell you is the food here is scrumptious :

I ended up ordering the Gyro Sandwich and a delicious salad. The gyro meat was alright it was sliced paper thin and tasty, but the pita bread it rested on was how do you say….&quotOff the chain&quot It was soft and warm and fresh….It could have used a little more tzatiki sauce, but nonetheless it was mmmm, but the star for me was that delicious salad. The vinaigrette was pure perfection. The 1/2 salad I ordered had shavings of some sort of prosciutto on top. The olives were huge and juicy and the feta was some of the creamiest feta cheese I have ever put in my mouth. I loved the salad so much I went back the next day for lunch…..wow it got crowded quick There was only one waitress there and every table in there was filled

Cevapcici, or cevaps for short, are the Slavic version of kebabs. It’s also the Bosnian national dish and the signature item at Caf Pita , Houston’s favorite Bosnian restaurant. To make cevaps, ground beef and lamb are mixed with pureed onions, herbs and spices, formed into cylinders and grilled. The result tastes like a hamburger and looks like a hot dog. An order of cevaps at Caf Pita gets you six meat cylinders sandwiched between the top and bottom of a hot lepinja, the spongy Bosnian bread that’s a cross between pita and focaccia. The bread is split open and laid over the sizzling meat to soften it. Don’t make the mistake of picking up the whole thing like a hamburger your cevaps will end up on your shirt. Instead, tear off a piece of the flatbread and slather it with the red pepper and eggplant paste called ajvar and the white dairy spread called kajmak. Put in a cylinder of meat and some chopped onions, wrap, eat and repeat. You will soon be back for more.
