Four Reasons Pita Jungle Is Perfect for Families Eating Healthy in Tucson

Picking a place to go out to eat at for the whole family can be a real chore when trying to take everything into consideration. The balance of atmosphere and deliciousness is essential for an enjoyable dining experience, but what about nutrition? What about meals for kids? There are a lot of moving parts, and you want to have all your bases covered. Food that indulges the taste buds and invigorates the human body is the foundation of Pita Jungle. We make eating healthy in Tucson easy and exciting. How do we do this? Here are four reasons we are the ideal stop for hungry families.

Complete Kid’s Menu

Our elaborate menu of countless Mediterranean starters and entrées is conveniently compressed for a kid’s menu that covers all of the bases. If you have kids who are 12 years old or younger, this is the perfect introduction to delectable foreign delicacies. Your children can choose a four-piece meal that consists of fruits, vegetables, protein and grains and carbs. A sample of a complete piece includes cucumber slices, seasonal fruit, turkey and garlic potatoes.

Salads, Fish, Wraps

We pride ourselves in using these foreign ingredients to prepare fresh, made-from-scratch meals that inflate the flavors and cut back on the fats and salts normally associated with restaurant dining. Each of our salads is overflowing with all the flavors of the Mediterranean, such as lentils, pineapples and chickpeas. Salmon and Mahi Mahi are mixed with cilantro-jalapeno hummus, spinach and garlic mashed potatoes. Pita bread wraps spill over with grilled marinated chicken breast, broiled lamb and tuna.

Healthy Burgers and Pizzas

People who may want to stick to something a little closer to home can choose from any of our burgers or pizzas for an entrée that is a little more familiar while still conforming to the Pita Jungle template. Wood-fired pizzas are topped with feta cheese, bell peppers, basil, herbs and chipotle chicken. Our burgers are created from portobello mushrooms and black beans.

Exquisite Ambiance

Pita Jungle tows the line between formal and casual, ditching the restaurant vibe and embodying something that is more akin to a lounge. The modern art on the walls and the hottest alternative music humming from the above speakers creates a relaxing and hip atmosphere that invites people of all sorts to sit down and enjoy a full-course meal.
