CLIFTON PARK, N.Y. (NEWS10) -- A new Mediterranean restaurant called Pita & Olive has opened in the Clifton Park Center Mall. The eatery is located in the former Smashburger and Kati Roll Wala space at 309 Clifton Park Center Road.
Owners Sal Niazi and Zeb Neyazy previously owned Zaitoon Kitchen in Latham until they sold it during the COVID-19 pandemic. They began renovations on the Pita & Olive space in July and had the soft opening on September 9.
"We're trying to bring something a little more elevated to the community," said Niazi. He also said the prices at Pita & Olive are lower than other fast casual restaurants as to not burden their customers.
The Pita & Olive menu features hummus, baba ghannouj, falafel, stuffed grape leaves, kabobs, pitas, and more. You can view the full menu on the Pita & Olive website. The restaurant also serves brunch on Saturdays and Sundays.
