Prepare your tastebuds for a new, fast-casual eatery coming to East Lansing: Pita Way.

East Lansing Restaurants

According to the Lansing State Journal, Pita Way is opening a location in East Lansing as well as one in DeWitt. Both of which are estimated to open this August.

Brandon Bahoura is the owner of Pita Way, and "opened the first Pita Way location in Clarkston in 2010 at age 25". 13 years and 22 locations later, Bahoura is currently working on two other locations in addition to the ones in East Lansing and DeWitt.

Pita Way

If you've never had Pita Way before, get ready for Mediterranean deliciousness. Bahoura describes it as "a Subway/Chipotle meets the Middle East", which is a spot-on description. You can customize various preparations of dishes with different meats, toppings, and sauces. They also have something called, "fire fries", which are absolutely amazing.

If you're stoked to give this a try, the East Lansing location is taking over the old Georgio's Pizza, formerly located at the bottom level of the Hub. And the DeWitt location can be found at 13070 Old U.S. 27. No word just on when in August it will be open, but regardless, we only have to wait a couple of months. Until then, you can check out one of the other 22 locations currently open across Michigan.
