The Carlsbad Pita Pit opened last Friday, however, it took us a couple days to find it thanks to it being hidden in that vortex known as Village Faire mall (it faces the tracks between Linda’s Gift and the Skinsational Spa). But we’re glad we found it. We haven’t had a good, quik falafel in Carlsbadistan since The Greek Corner Cafe pulled up and handed their space over to Las Olas.
Although technically a chain restaurant, there is a lot to like about The Pit. Firstly, it has great pitas (stuffed Lebanese style) that are custom built to customer spec each time. It stays open late: until at least midnight every night, Thursday until 2 AM, and Friday and Saturday until 3 AM and it even serves breakfast starting at 8 AM every morning. Most importantly, there is finally an alternative to Denny’s or Alejandros for after-the-bars-shut grinds. It’s been far too long.

Locals don’t call it “Alejandros”
