Closed during opening hours

No idea when this place opens as we drove all the way to closed doors at 4pm.

Seems to be closed for good

We went there twice during regular hours, and it appears to be totally closed for good. We could see the chairs stacked up on top of the tables hadn’t moved in a day. Too bad, I was in the mood for Mediterranean salads and dips.

Hi, according to their Facebook it looks like it might be temporary.

Some seriously good hummus & pita

Like the title says, they have some seriously good hummus and pita. This place is a definitely must while you’re in Puerto Viejo!

Ammmmmazing

I am so satiated after this meal. I didn’t even feel like middle eastern, but am happy I came. That meal was pure pleasure. The sweet and natural ambience is only surpassed by the flavors dancing on your tongue with every dish. Don’t miss the falafel pita, homemade hot sauce, pita and hummus. All around a gem.

Pros: Lots of vegan/vegetarian options, Fluffiest yummiest pita I’ve ever had, the flavors, everything perfectly seasoned

Very good

There's 1 vegetarian option and 4 vegan options, I took the falafel pita and it was very big and good.
The barmaid was nice and accomodating.

Disappointing

We had the falafel plate, I thought mine was delicious but my friend had the same and thought hers was only average. The ambience here was poor, it took ages for our order to arrive even though they were not busy and the service was unfriendly. And we got swarmed by wasps.

Got the for two option (can’t remember the exact name) it came with many things and was very delicious! Not badly priced either

Deserves 5 stars

Had the 'open table' dish, which is a shareable tapas plate with lots of delicious minor dishes(all vegan). Great pita and hummus. All in all a very tasty meal.

Pros: Many vegan dishes. , Friendly staff. , Delicious food.

Cons: They have meat options😉, Location could be closer to puerto viejo.

WONDERFUL!

Fabulous falafels, salad, and soft, fresh pita! These folks have it going on! Nice, quiet location. Pretty set up. Excellent owners. Best food in P.V.! We ate here 2x because we could not get enough of their excellent, crispy falafels, the best I ever had!The cucumber, tomato, onion, parsley salad was heavenly! To top it off, we enjoyed chatting with the owners, and watching the full moon light up the night sky. Very romantic! EAT HERE!!!!

Pros: Food, Owners, Privacy

Go there now!

If I could eat at Pita Bonita every night I would be very happy. These folks know how to do middle eastern food very well! The pitas are made fresh daily and are definitely deserving of their prominence in the name of the restaurant. Soft, doughy and delicious, these are more than just vessels for delivering hummus to your mouth; they are a standout feature in themselves. Although, the hummus too is good enough to eat by the pound with your fingers.

I ordered the shakshuka, a North African egg and tomato dish with pita, which elicited envy from all of my dining companions. The wells-spiced salsa-y tomatoes provided a perfect base to envelope the creamy eggs that sat atop. I ate the dish so fast that I was tempted to order a second one despite that I was already pleasantly full.

Pros: Delicious food, Good value

Cons: slightly pricey (but worth it), location is a little bit out of the way
