When I'm in this area, I usually go to Osmow's; however, Pita Nutso is definitely the next best thing. Sometimes, the line-up at Osmow's is too long and I actually choose to come here instead.
The sauce at Pita Nutso is pretty good and I like how you can add more sauce on it yourself. Only thing is that I wished they would put more meat in their shawarmas, especially since it is a bit pricier...

This is the worst shawarma place ever, I've been today afternoon to bring lunch for my family and the person who took the order was rude and doesn't have any customer service experience; i've requested not to put rice or fries on the meal as I'm on diet and he responded with rudeness what do want? I stated that only salad with shawarma will be good. When he filled the plate with the meal he... more
My go to shawarma spot in mississauga, best in the city. Good portions and price. Definitely prefer this over ozmos.
The good: It's a large pita with very fresh ingredients, and variety of toppings to chose from.
The not-so good: The meat is not really seasoned (though it was fresh), the sauces don't have much taste and the hot sauce is about as mild as you can find. You don't really get Middle-Eastern flavours, but only a slightly improved 'Pita Pit' experience.
What to expect: a large, fresh-tasting pita...

Pita Nutso is a Streetsville staple just like black Kramer ( look him up if you don't know who he is). My usual meal is the is shawarma on the rocks which is chicken with rice. They have great deals if you are getting more than one shawarma, so bring a friend and check it out.
Been coming here since 2001 when it first opened...always enjoyed it. Taste changed a little a few years ago when the owner made it to a franchise model. But this is still my go to place for shawarma.
So bland. I had a chicken shawarma and a buddy had a lamb kabob, both had zero taste. We both wanted it spicy but neither had any kick. Only good side is it the food came fast. I wonder why I used to go crazy over this place back in high school when they were pita nutsy. Either they completely changed their recipe or my tastebuds evolved. Either way this will be my last visit to pita nutso.

I love this place. Consistent good food. Great service. The guys who work here are the best.
Average Shawarmas nothing special, Good price...probably better than a McChicken for 7 bucks but I have had better Shawarmas in Toronto and Mississauga.
I took my Dad there as i was convinced they have good pitas. We were both disappointed though. Quality of the shawarma declined throughout the years. I don't know what happend. Used to be a really good shawarma but the product is just not matching the same standards. Be aware pita mates!
Way better than osmows as you don't have to wait hours for your food. Food is good and the staff is good as well
I had the chicken shawarma and it was tasteful but not that good, it's about $7 and I don't think it worth it. I've had a Chicken shawarma combo at Rabbah for $5.60 and it comes with fries and a can of pop. Which I think is a way better deal then $7 for just a shawarma that isn't any better then the Rabbah one which fills me up way better. I went after reading the reviews but I honestly don't... more
I had to wait an hour in line on Canada day evening after the fireworks. But it was definitely worth my wait. I'll be back!
I basically went there after reading the reviews on Yelp. The place is clean, the service is very good. However, I was disappointed with the food. There was a bitter taste in the meats. The rice was very good. And the salad was kinda dull. Overall, nothing to indicate that this place is as highly rated as it seems.
I didn't have the Shawarma. So if that's the prime item, I have yet to try it....

Had the grilled veggie pita meal. Hot, fresh, delicious. Amazing prices especially for more than one, they have great daily deals such as 2 pita for 14$. Fantastic.
Great food. Went on yelp to look up restaurants to grab food. Pita Nutso had 5 stars so I thought that I would take a chance. Turns out the reviews were right. Fair prices to. I got the works and couldn't finish it and I am a big eater.
Would recommend to anyone and would definitely go again.
When we feel like having a really good shawarma, especially spicy, this is where we come !!
Best Libanese take-out in the area!
Definitely one of the top shawarma spots in Mississauga.
The Chicken on the Rocks is top notch - fresh chicken and rice with a savoury garlic sauce. Portions are more than filling too.
It's hard not to compare it with Osmow's because they literally share the same building, but I'll give Pita Nutso the edge. If you love Osmow's, you need to give Pita Nutso a try.
Pita Nutsy, the ancestor to the chain that is now Pita Nutso used to have some of the best shawarma out there. Fast forward a few years and Pita Nutso is now a big chain that is far over rated.
The shawarmas are ok at best. The meat is seasoned in what tastes like cheap garlic salt. Other than tasting...

When was called Pita Nutsy, it was better, better shawarmas and services. Sorry to say, but Osmos Mississauga is much better.
I followed the trail of Yelp positive reviews to this place. I would have never come here on my own as this place is easy to zoom by without noticing it. When we walked in, you're wafted by the smell of fresh grilled meats. There's a HUGE rack of the shawarma just roasting and you can see it's not dry at all. All the vegetables and pitas are laid out as well and it's clear they're all fresh.... more
I was never really a fan of shawarma, until I came here with some co-workers. This place is pretty much a hole-in-the wall with limited seating (a counter and about 3-4 tables) so we usually order to go. They cook and prepare everything in front of you. The best deals are 2 grilled pitas for $11 (one for lunch and one for later), or if you're really hungry and have a friend to split, 2 dinner... more
The first time I had a shawarma was at this place. This was shortly after this restaurant replaced a Greek restaurant. Vince insisted that I give the garlic sauce a try and I was hooked. I've tried shawarmas at other places but I always come back. Still remember Vince telling me how he's gonna call the place The Pita Nazi (like The Soup Nazi) while I ate my shawarma at the counter. I highly... more
I love Pita Nutso. SOOO MUCH! I've cheated a few times with other shawarma establishments, but I always come back.
I went here hearing some nonsense rumor that I was way better than the next door Osmows, I should've gotten a hint that that was nonsense since they were not even busy during peak lunch hours. When I got my Shawarma it was cold and literally had no taste hence asking for the spiciest flavouring. I do not recommend this... more
The food was good but the guys are kinda creeps. I have eaten here a few times both eat in & take out. The place is very small but it's nice because you can access it from the back parking lot or the street side so easy escape if necessary! I haven't been in a while & likely won't return.
The place is set up to get in, order, pick up your order & enjoy (the place is tiny, with only a couple of tables, so you may want to plan to eat elsewhere). Pitas are fantastic!!!! Worth a try :)
Queen Street in Mississauga has 5 shawarma places atm (including one beside this one and another a few stores apart). This I think is the best as far as the actual shawarma wrap goes, it's just as good if not better than Osmow's at least and the guys here are more friendly...they always have soccer on the TV so it's hilarious when their favourite team is playing and they start cheering. They... more
These guys run specials to get you in the door but will charge you for the air you breathe if they are given the chance. Avoid these guys they dony respect their clients.
This place has been open for as long as I can remember. When I was a little girl we lived in the apartments above the strip of stores its in. I really have no clue how long ago that was but the owner used to work there himself. It was small, always sweltering hot and everything was wood! It was definitely the hot spot in streetsville and i could say that majority of mississaugians know of this... more
Not bad.. I prefer their chicken to Osmow's next door which is "cheat" cooked on a flat top, not true vertical rotisserie style like a shawarma should be. This is the original location before they popped up with 20 other chain locations. It was best years ago when they were The Pita Nazi (then Nutsy, then Nutso)
Always ask for a reciept. They offer free drinks but will charge you for them when they think you're not paying attention. Food is excellent but there are other options close by which may be more honest.
They claimed to serve halal but having bar also in the place which makes hard to believe their serving of Halal. Though shawarams we had were very good
Food is ok, price is too much and service is horrible. I would recomend Osmow's grill (next door) or World Shawarma King (In the AMC Plaza). Both of these places have the most tastiest Shawarmas in the GTA. World Shawarma King also has great customer service.
Fast!?...i think not! Fresh.... Don't get me started. Ordered take out. Shawarma was cold and had literally no flavor. GO TO OSMOWS NEXT DOOR!! PLEASE
quick, cheap and fresh food. The owner is quite the character as well
Food tasted great but the owner made numerous racist Anti Semetic remarks
its awsome. the food is just toooooooooooooo gooooooooooooooooood plz go and try for sure. by zahid
Addicted to this place! prepared right in front of you, fresh ingredients, Love it!
Love this restaurant. Food is delicious and very affordable. Best shawarmas I've ever tried.
I hope that any readers who peruse this review understand that it is written seriously. I dont know the people at this establishment and have nothing against them. That said, the only meal I ate that day was from this restaurant and I was incredibly sickened with food poisoning for four days afterwards, losing 7 pounds in the process and I can back this with medical tests,. I am also very fit... more
Rude, dirty place, the owner openly admits to sympathizing with the perpatraitors of 9/11
