Pitas for all tastes and sauces that hit the mark
Le Perroquet is renowned for its pitas, prepared with fresh, quality ingredients. You will find a wide choice of toppings, from meat to fish to vegetarian options. Each pita is served with two house sauces, including garlic sauce and pineapple-flavored cocktail sauce, which are particularly popular with customers.
Price-wise, pitas are almost all below 10 euros, making it excellent value for money. You can also take advantage of the heated terrace for outdoor dining on sunny days.

Le Perroquet: A tasty and affordable treat in Brussels!
Located a stone's throw from Place du Sablon, Le Perroquet is a true haven of peace for foodies. This restaurant, with a warm and relaxed atmosphere, offers a wide variety of pitas filled with fresh, quality products.
I had the opportunity to test their vegetarian pita, and II can tell you that it was a real delight! The vegetables were perfectly cooked, the sauce was flavorful and the pita was nicely crispy. The portions are also very generous, which is a significant plus.
Price-wise, it is more than reasonable, making it an ideal address for a quick and economical meal. Too bad the default dish is missing fries…
The service is fast and efficient, and the staff is always smiling and welcoming.
