Pita Jungle Is a Casual Restaurant in Phoenix That Still Manages to Be Swanky
It can be tough to find middle ground when going out to eat. You want an atmosphere that invites you to walk in with jeans and a t-shirt, but you also want to be surrounded by culture and ambiance. Pita Jungle is a casual restaurant in Phoenix that blurs the lines between casual and classy, and the only qualifications you need are an empty stomach and an open mind. You can enjoy sumptuous forkfuls and spoonfuls of exotic Mediterranean delight while surrounded by eccentric atmosphere created from various clashes of art and architecture.
Pita Jungle’s Downtown Phoenix location is within the historic Gold Spot Marketing Center. This building was one of the first residential shopping centers to have ever been built in the heart of downtown Phoenix, and its Spanish Colonial and Mission Revival architecture express flair that cannot be found anywhere else in the city. Inside is a mix of both modern and traditional design, paying respect to the building’s original construction while updating it with contemporary furniture and tools for food preparation. The result is a hybrid of history and style, bridging the gap between metropolitan industrial and historic charm. Humming along the airwaves within the restaurant is an eclectic mix of the best alternative music currently available.
Pita Jungle in downtown Phoenix, like all Pita Jungle locations, also highlights the work of a brilliant artist. Adorning the walls is the dramatic artwork of Mesa resident Meghan Mitchell, whose deep, lustrous brushstrokes depict red dragons flying across muted, psychedelic skies and wandering through blue and indigo caverns. This display of art breaks away from lazy décor settings and supports the brilliant local talent who keep the downtown arts scene bustling with vitality.
Pita Jungle’s unique menu fuses Mediterranean cuisine with doses of other cultures and styles to create an experience that not many settings can properly match. That’s why our visionary architects strive to create an environment that welcomes in people of all ages and all cultures. If you’re ready and willing to introduce yourself to new flavors and aromas while immersing yourself in a charmingly unorthodox setting, Pita Jungle is the restaurant for you.
