Confirmed by the owner himself last night, Manhattan’s Olympic Pita has closed and has been sold. It will be reopening as a non-kosher restaurant under a different name.
Olympic Pita has been serving the kosher keeping office workers in the Garment Center for years with delicious shwarma, zaatar laffas, and dozens of other Middle Eastern dishes.
They will be missed.
They will be missed. Was my favorite restaurant in the city.
