Marco’s Pita is a Mediterranean restaurant that specializes in pitas, gyros and falafel. The eatery offers pita choices such as the house pita which consists of lettuce, tomatoes, mild pepper rings and a choice of deli meat, cheese and dressing. Another option is the seafood pita containing crab meat, shrimp, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, mild peppers, bell peppers and a hint of lemon juice and the house dressing. Customers are also able to build their own pitas. All meals are served with a side. Marco’s Pita is an alternative to fast food by offering a wide selection of fresh produce, lean meats and natural breads.
Rhythm and blues and neo-soul music accompany art by local artists and sets the atmosphere for a relaxing place to stop for a quick meal with friends or by yourself. The option of indoor and outdoor seating makes Marco’s Pita the place to stop for traditional Mediterranean food as Atlanta heads into spring.
