But Pita Shak has managed to kick it up a notch after serving delicious meals to the community for three decades.<\/p>\n<p>In the past couple of months, things have progressed pretty quickly for Mediterranean\u00a0restaurant and the owners have been fortunate enough to spread their mouthwatering dishes outside of Michigan City.<\/p>\n<p>After serving many satisfied customers in Michigan City, the owners decided to open a new location in LaPorte and also recently moved their Michigan City restaurant to a new location on Franklin Street in the old Lindos building.<\/p>\n<p>The new building, located at 3940 Franklin Street offers a larger space to accommodate\u00a0more diners as well as a beautiful outdoor patio complete with a stone fireplace to keep you warm and cozy during the winter nights.<\/p>\n<p>The outdoor patio is also a great place to come and hang out while you sip your favorite brew especially since along with the new location, Pita Shak owners also acquired a beer and liquor\u00a0license.<\/p>\n<p>During our visit we walked in and were greeted immediately by a smiling hostess who directed us to the new lounge area, a space\u00a0secluded from the main dining area in the restaurant where guests can enjoy their spirits or beer in a cozy comfortable setting equipped with two televisions to ensure you don&#8217;t miss any moment of the game.<\/p>\n<p>The restaurant was very appealing with its mid-tone lighting and unique decor, one of our favorites being the wine glass chandeliers.<\/p>\n<p>As we sat down at our booth, we were met with yet another smiling face from our server within seconds of taking our seats.<\/p>\n<p>We place our order for a double cheeseburger and one of their famous gyros which arrived within ten minutes from the time we ordered.<\/p>\n<p>The moment\u00a0the burger arrived, you could immediately tell from the looks of it that it was hand-pressed\u00a0fresh ground beef, a very refreshing sight after becoming accustomed to the average frozen beef patty from other eateries.<\/p>\n<p>The burger and the fries arrived piping hot and the first bite of the burger lived up to its looks. The burger was cooked perfectly with a very slight char on the outside while remaining juicy on the inside.<\/p>\n<p>The gyro came stuffed full of gyro meat with onions, tomatoes, tzatziki\u00a0sauce, and feta cheese piled high on top and also proved to be just as good as the burger.<\/p>\n<p>The gyro also arrived at our table hot and in one bite you can tell the tzatziki\u00a0sauce was homemade.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout our experience, our waitress kept a watchful eye on our drinks and did not let either one of our glasses to empty before replacing it with another.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of our meal, we had the pleasure of speaking to one of the owners, Pam Harrison.<\/p>\n<p>Harrison told us that they are now entering their fourth week at their new location and things are looking great.<\/p>\n<p>Harrison stated they are utilizing the outdoor patio to host their &#8220;Throttle Thursday&#8217;s&#8221; where they invite locals to bring their hot rods and motorcycles and enjoy great drink and dinner specials beginning at 5 p.m. along with live entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>Harrison told us they recently hired <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Soul-Shine-1379458682352867\/\">Soul Shine,<\/a>\u00a0an Indiana band that &#8220;plays to the crowd&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They look at the crowd and play what the crowd likes, they just know,&#8221; stated Harrison.<\/p>\n<p>Soul Shine is scheduled to play again at Pita Shak during their next Throttle Thursday event on July 26.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you are looking for a family night out, a relaxing night with your special someone, or just to hang out with friends, Pita Shak&#8217;s new locations can provide!<\/p>\n<p>For our review, we rated our experience at Pita Shak&#8217;s new location a 5\/5 for Food Quality since our food arrived hot and cooked perfectly. For cleanliness, we rated them a 5\/5 for keeping the floors, tables, and seats clean and free of any crumbs, stickiness, or debris under the table. They also received a 5\/5 for service for being prompt, attentive, and offering excellent service with a smile as well as having the owner come and personally check on us after our meal. Finally, for the price, we awarded them a 5\/5 for offering great quality food in abundant portions at prices comparable to fast food chains. For our dinner for two, we totaled $22 including drinks without gratuity.<\/p>\n<p>For more information or ordering, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pitashak\/\">Pita Shak on Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #999999;\"><em>Our Local Eats section is a collection of restaurant reviews from restaurants we select ourselves or by votes cast on our polls.
