Evanston Lunch Group™ July 16 @ New Pita Inn Skokie 12:30 pm

Post #1 - July 3rd, 2015, 1:12 pmDue to the overwhelming indifference to the suggestion of The Noodle as a venue for the next Evanston Lunch Group™, we've decided to rely on EvA's outstanding, non-elder judgement and move the lunch to the new Pita Inn in Skokie.
Now, let’s see how many we can get to join us there July 16 at 12:30 pm.
Pita Inn
4710 Dempster Street,
Skokie, IL 60076

Post #2 - July 4th, 2015, 10:35 pmGee, I've never been called an elder before.
I'll be there anyway.

Post #3 - July 11th, 2015, 2:59 pmWe have not been in many years either .. because we have sworn never to return! The waiter spilled sauce all over Catherine's leather jacket, with no apology for the restaurant, which only reimbursed the cleaning bill very begrudgingly, and at that only at the cleaner of their choice in Wilmette. The jacket was never the same again, so the meal was particularly costly and the service not only incompetent (which I can forgive) but downright rude (which I won't). The food was unremarkable, not bad but not worth returning for. Admittedly, things may have changed for the better over the years (though the menu looks very familiar!). This was in the days before the internet!
In any case, we will miss seeing you all in July and August.

Post #4 - July 12th, 2015, 12:04 pmSounds like that was under the old owners. The new owners are also the ones who own Nuevo Depot in Willmette.

No, there isn't at the moment, but that doesn't mean we couldn't start one. Is there any place in particular that you'd like to try, and that would benefit from the ordering power of multiple food-appreciators?

Inexpensive, too. But the parking lot was a nightmare.

My co-workers who have eaten there tell me that when the lot is entirely full (and beyond), the restaurant is still half-empty. Kind of a bummer to have a newly-built place and start out with inadequate parking. Maybe it will settle down a bit after some time but given how popular the previous location was, that seems unlikely.

Kind of like what we experienced today, except the restaurant was probably only 1/3 empty.

Post #16 - July 19th, 2015, 11:15 amPart of the parking lot problem is that there was a line of about 15 people waiting for their call-in orders which they will take out.
