Nana's Pita in Southend-on-Sea

Nice food and very friendly staff. Will be coming back again for some Gyros.

Good experience and great food, especially the desserts and wraps !

Always skeptical when trying new places on takeaway apps, but the chicken gyros wrap was absolutely delicious. I'm always wary of chicken not being cooked enough, but pleasantly it was completely cooked and the wrap itself was soft and fluffy, the salad wasn't bad, and the sauces were great. The chips were standard, thick and fluffy on the inside. Would definitely recommend!

Delicious Cretan food (from the Isle of Crete) Had the humus, halloumi salad, and pita. All good. Was empty and sat outside Wasn't much of a vibe and service was friendly but in obvious. Good experience

Great food, reasonably priced. Food delicious and good portion sizes. Will definitely be back.

Food was absolutely incredible, I had a halloumi pitta and it was honestly just beautiful. Nicest Greek food I’ve had will definitely be back. Do not use just eat to order tho just eat are awful, go and collect it or dine in it’ll be worth it x

This is definitely not a Greek restaurant - the people running it are a different nationality totally. ‘Nana’s chips’ taste like Iceland frozen chips. My first 2 real Greek dish choices were unavailable so I chose a lamb suvlaki. I had trouble removing the pieces from the skewers and the pieces that weren’t total fat were so hard to chew that I had to leave them! The ‘Greek Salad’ was a few bits of salad thrown together, no dressing at all!! What a waste of £45!!!!!

What a load of rubbish. Zero greek authenticity! When asked if their Mousakka or Pistichio is homemade, the server replied with ‘umm I don’t think so’. After receiving our soulvaki I now realise absolutley nothing from the menu is homemade. I do not have a positive comment for this establishment so I highly recommend people to steer clear if you’re looking for good quality, authentic greek food!

Fantastic food, friendly team. Seems to do more on line delivery service now, so restaurant seems to be just a little bit secondary - just a sign of the times I suppose.

i ordered chicken wrap it was delicious. Good value for money would order from them , Recommend

Lovely food, quick service. Definitely will come again!!!

Really rude on the phone to me. Will never use again.

Came here today 4 of us for lunch for the first time and we will definitely return. Food was delicious and lots of it. Staff helpful and friendly.

The best Greek take away food I’ve had

Good stuff good food good sevice

Really tasty food! The Nana's special is a real treat for your taste buds. Nice cosy place 👌

Possibly some of the worst food I’ve had in my 46 years on this planet. If you’ve ever been to Greece you wont recognize the food they serve up at this place. The chicken was drier than the Sahara and cooked over a grill, not coals. The salad was about as far from a Greek salad as you could get, a few lettuce leaves and tomato off cuts and the chips were cold. The waitress could sense our displeasure and to her credit offered some semi thawed baklava and cake. Avoid.

First time trying Nana's.. absolutely superb. 100% coming back

Great food and good portions. Very reasonable

The Souvlaki Chicken was dry and tasteless. No pitas with the delivery meant I had to go out to collect them (meaning my meal got cold)!! Mistakes can be made but there was no real concern over the error nor the fact that I had to come out to collect them!! Poor service and poor food!!

Thank you to Yoni and the team for always providing excellent service and most importantly unbelievable food. Best Greek restaurant in Essex, give this place a try.

Ordered on the app for colletion and went to collect. Once I arrived the guy said they didnt take orders on their website and would have to make the order now and the wait would be 20 minutes! The whole point of having a website to order collection is that I can arrive and pick up the order once it is made. To top it off the quality and quatity of food was no where near on par with previous orders and teh portion size was less than half of the last order. Whole experiance has really put me off going there again which is a shame as before the food has been great.

Souvlaki chicken (plate) was completely dry - stuck on the wooden stick . Possibly grilled hours ago and heated in the microwave. The grilled halloumi was completely tasteless. Only pita was tasted. Sorry for this review Nana but you have to take your menu, especially when you are out

The best place în leigh on sea to have a kebab...the place îs very clean and chef os so friendly and funny

Gorgeous food.... very fresh.... very greek Lovely young man and woman running the shop xxxxxx

Popped in on Saturday for brunch. Fantastic food and service, very reasonable prices , highly recommended.

You want a /kebab/, but it doesn't tickle your fancy ordering yet another rendition of a lamb & chicken shish mix - submerged, as is tradition, in a chilly and garlic vat. So what do you do? Provided you dont want to default to Ye old Mcdonald's like a gimp chicken with a skin fade... You order Nana's Special! A chicken and pork gyro mixed well with a bunch of stuff that's a welcome departure from donnor monotony. Decent place.

Always good food to eat in or takeaway

Highly recommend!! Best place around for Greek food!!! Food has never let us down, always hot and tasty and presentation always stop on!! Staff are also lovely, especially the owner! One of the nicest blokes I’ve met! If you want Greek don’t look no further! So worth the drive every time we go! Wish I could give you more stars!

Love gyro when in Greece, have found the same here in Essex ! Fantastic food Don’t pass by without trying Totally recommend

2 Nanas specials with Extra feta and extra paprika!!!

Lovely Greek food, sit in or takeaway...good portion sizes. Good prices ..staff are friendly and approachable and will help with any questions or requests....just a note if you want to sit down small inside with a few tables inside and out . Everything looks clean

We sat outside and enjoyed the food we ordered. 😋 really friendly and good service. We will call in again.

Visited the restaurant yesterday for a quick lunch and sadly I was disappointed with the food as they were not up to greek standards Looking at the menu and some of the food were not available. It is not recommended and I will not visit again nana's pitta.

As good as any gyros pita I've had in Greece. Really fine and tasty ingredients used. We'll definitely be back soon.

Excellent food and fantastic service! Highly recommended

Really, really bad, pork was dry and cold, would not go back

Original Greek food! Highly recommended 👌 If you fancy having some great food then you know where to go... Best Greek wrap I have tried in the UK.

Best food around absolute perfectly cooked and fairly priced and the staff are so amazing and friendly they have a customer for life now

Came here today, friendly service and the food was fantastic! Definitely coming again

First time got takeaway from here and food was very tasty. Will certainly order again in the future.

Very nice we had food in the restaurant in the week than had a takeaway tonight and what lovely food definitely worth a visit or takeaway we will be back

Absolutely delicious. Better than some Gyros I've had in Greece! And the chips. Well, what can I say! I think they had to be THE best chips I have EVER had. None of this french fries soggyness! I would love the recipe! They were out of this world. We will definitely be ordering from you again, thank you for a delicious take away Donna (Benfleet)

Fantastic food, so reasonable & such friendly service .. will definitely be coming back, thank you 🙏

Great place, amazing food, low prices and the service was very helpful. I will definitely come back!!!

I found this delightful restaurant on a random whim. Have had the chance to eat in a couple times, and take away too! Consistent, full of flavour, and a great family feel! 10/10*

Had eaten with my family there and must say that food was excellent! Tasteful,qood quality of products and friendly staff. Totally recomend it!

Really good and quick service. Nice taste 👌

Food is great but no atmosphere..Best as a takeaway

One of the staff members has no oomph or life about him, has messed up our order a couple of times in the past and tried to blame it on us.. otherwise food is 11/10, bring Yoni back 🙏

Food and service amazing, definitely be back again

Beautiful place Beautiful food Beautiful people

Cute little traditional restaurant

Great Greek food and super clean.family owned and run.

Amazing Tasty Food! Can't wait to go back.

Food was done quickly and tasted amazing!!! Definitely will be returning.

Very tasty! We’ve been there three times and always food was great! Fully recommend!

Quick, friendly service and the best gyros I’ve tasted outside the Dodecanese!! FANTASTIC!!

Came in here for a meal as was recommended to us by family! amazing food, very good portion sizes, just had mains and was very full up! owner was lovely and we had a very nice time, nice quick service too! will definitely love to come back, such a nice little restaurant and very well priced!!!

Just had a delivery was terrible dried out chicken horrible chips the only thing that was nice was the bread

To the owner, why would I want to sit inside on such a glorious day?, this has absolutely nothing to do with my pooch and has a matter of fact I had to change the table outside so the wind didnt blow my way the smell from inside. The photo is uploaded to provide the information I wrote was correct, the taste and presentation was very very poor. As a matter of fact this has nothing to do with my pooch so please do not insinuate it has, shifting the blame from poor food and service onto a Customer who came to your establishment directly sat outside and was hoping to have a decent Greek breakfast. Unacceptable response from you...

The best Greek food I have ever had. Food is unbelievable and so reasonably priced. Service is always amazing. One of my favourite places to eat in Southend!

Had never ordered from here before but thought we would give it a try…never again! Our order never arrived and despite ringing the restaurant and speaking to 2 members of staff and the owner, received absolutely no help to find what had happened to the order. They said they had no details of the driver who had collected the order and once it had left them it was out of their hands. One member of staff refused to give her name in case I needed to confirm who had provided me with info and even said they had no info about my order as they had too many. £40 down and no food delivered. Treated disgracefully.

Lovely food, friendly atmosphere, polite staff. Nothing was to much effort! Was Lovely and clean inside, looking forwards to going again!

Delicious food and very nice staff. Recommended 💯💯💯💯💯💯

We ordered via Deliveroo it arrived quickly and warm. However I ordered a chicken and pork Gyros think it was the speacial. I couldn’t find any pieces of chicken just some dry pieces of shredded pork. Very disappointed. I don’t normally write reviews but this wasn’t great, it’s a shame as the flavour of everything else was good and the bread

Having to revise my previously four star review, to reflect our most recent visit. The food is still very good but the service we received on Sunday afternoon was truly atrocious. Not only did we wait a very long time to be greeted when we entered the restaurant, the young man that served us was so preoccupied with his phone, that we struggled on several occasions to get his attention. He forgot one of the items from our order (there were only 3) and didn’t check on us once during the meal. There were also several items that were off the menu, which was not communicated to us when we sat down. We will probably give this place another chance, but won’t be in any rush to do so

The food was very tasty and very filling

Food is very good, took my son here. He had the chicken Gyros and I had the nannas special Gyros, very plentiful and very flavourful. Nice cosy restaurant with a nice atmosphere. Thanks again for the nice food.

First of many visits I’m sure to this lovely eatery… a few of us had a takeaway dinner; we had a couple of ‘plate for 2’s, which were more than enough food, plus gyro’s and souvlaki’s. Everything was super tasty, and everyone was super happy!!! The owner Yoni was so friendly too, and even gave us a couple of extras for free!!!

Pork Gyros was so nice I had 2!

Nana's Pita is now one of my favourite restaurants. The food taste just like food you can get in Greece and the service is great. Definitely reccomend.

Looks like it’s gonna be a gem but it isn’t being run by a chef unfortunately. The food is fast food.

Very impressed. First visit since new owners took over. Menu took a bit of getting used to. Had the chicken gyros which was really good. Pitta bread was probably one of the best I've ever had! Will visit again.

£6 for TWO pieces of COLD Halloumi is completely unacceptable. Seriously disappointed.

Very good service, most friendly staff and the souvlaki excellent!

Amazing Greek takeout ,try their chicken and lamb realy tasty. A small place ,but a few tables if wanna eat in....my family pop in every week and are always happy

Delicious! We had Chicken Gyros with Tzatziki and Halloumi with Tzatziki! It was absolutely gorgeous. The ambience is spot on and the service fantastic.

Fantastic food...definitely go again

Friendly staff, great food and good price.

This is a Greek diner food was plentiful and perfectly cooked and the owner very apprachable

My brother in law was visiting us in Basildon, with he and my wife being Greek we decided to grab some Greek food. The gyros that they ate was in their words exceptional. This place does it’s meat dishes incredibly well and we will definitely be heading back for a fix.

Best pita gyros in Essex. Finally an original Greek taste near me. Very clean restaurant cosy and well decorated. Give it a try if you are around and you won't be disappointed

Review is for ordering through Just Eat for delivery which takes the overall price of each item up by about £3 making it simply not worth the money. The portions were small for £10 each, but probably would have been reasonable for £6-7 as per the actual menu. Would not order as a delivery again, expecting much better value for money as compared with other similar places nearby

Lovely food and nice people, we went to "Nana's" this evening, the staff were great, they were clearly busy and there were a lot of collection orders but once you have tried the food you understand why it has become so popular so quickly. We have been to Greece a number of times and this food was authentic and just as good - the owner told me how he was from Crete and has a lot of the ingredients imported - and you can tell.

We went in for lunch and the service and food was spot on. We had a sharing platter which was plenty and tasty. It was great, they may need a bigger place with all the people that will love their food.

Great food. Best Crete food in Essex. The chicken gyros are one of best I have tired. Authentic place.

Very delicious food end friendly staff

Drove by thought we'd give it a go and what a great little find it was, amazing pork gyros, the halloumi and saganki starters were very good too. Will definitely return, can highly recommend

Delicious Food ! 😃🙌👌Very friendly staff. Top place for a Greek food!

Lovely food whether you eat in or take out. Simple Greek home cooking.

Stunning little restaurant on London road. Place is super clean. Take away (mixed and Greek) gyros are full of freshly prepared/cooked ingredients. Do yourself a favour, try it!

Lovely food at great prices! Starters were fab, tzasiki and vine leaves and gyros spectacular! Definitely recommended !

I highly recommend this place, nice tasty Greek food. I am Greek and tried pitas several times in many places in Greece, those pitas are just amazing, fresh, soft and tasty. Have a try.

Best Gyros I have had in the UK, will definitely be returning 👊

Been waiting for a place like this. After visiting Greece recently, this took me straight back there. Love the food and is already one of my favourites places to eat in Leigh.

Cannot recommend this place enough! Food is delightful and well priced; service is great and always with a smile. Such a good find and a little piece of Greece on your doorstep.

New shop on the block. And what a lovely surprise. Very fresh and tasty Greek food at sensible prices. Tottaly recommend.

So cheap yet so good. Have the chicken gyros and thank me later. Even his big fluffy chips are uniquely tasty. Top restaurant quality food at cafe prices.

My son has been raving about this place for weeks, and I finally got round to trying one of nanas special gyros, and am I glad I did. The food was fantastic and reasonably priced. We thorough enjoyed it, and I can safely say that I will now become a regular. Would highly recommend this place you will not be disappointed.
