I am going to try to make my first visit to La Pita tomorrow (9/21) after work for some takeout.
I know that this place is a favorite of many who post here, and, since I will be going in without ever having looked at a menu, I was wondering if I could get some suggestions on what to try.
Thanks!

The Baba is great, if you like eggplant. The grape leaves, also very good. His prices are so reasonable you can try a bunch of stuff. If you opt for any rolles sandwiches (all are great bets) get 'em loaded with everything....

I get the falafel sandwich (rolled) with the works. Yummy. My oldest plays soccer at St. Ed's once or twice a week and I save my calories on those days for La Pita. Now that Detroit is mostly put back together, access is better, though bike parking is difficult at best and that poor little sapling right out front is already damaged.

There are many excellent choices at La Pita Express.
I can eat there three days in a row, which is quite a testament to versatility and consistency, and I will this week.
I buy a range of things rather than the combo platter. The combo platter are great and can be made to suit, I believe.
I give you my favorites:
Yesterday I had:
Fried Kibbee (chopped lamb, cracked wheat pine nuts and spices) These are $1.25 each – excellent.
Hummus
Falaffel Sandwich
Today I had:
Beef schwarma
Hummus
Falaffel balls
Lamb is terrific.
Chicken schwarma is great.
I believe tomorrow (Friday) he will be making a special of beef and green beans – which is fabulous.
I have used La Pita for a party of 70.
I truly believe La Pita Express is the finest quality and value you will in the region. To have a distinctive shop like this in Lakewood is pure gold for the city.

I finally found La Pita and ate there last week. It lived up to the LO hype. I have long-loved Mediterannean/Middle Eastern food.
I had the Falafel sandwich and the Fatoush salad. Both were excellent and the prices were great. I loved the pickled root veggies on the falafel. I will definitely eat there again and again and again!
Thanks for the info!
