Great

One of my favourite places in Playa del Carmen, tried I few different things on their menu and they have a good variety of options (healthy and comfort foods). Best thing I had was the Chorizo sandwich, it’s just so good.

Highly recommend this place!

Pros: Flavourful , Variety

Cada vez peor

La verdad es que alguna vez el Pitted Date fue de mis lugares favoritos, pero durante mucho tiempo el servicio, la calidad y todo fue decayendo. Le he dado muchísimas oportunidades y siempre salen con algo. En mis ultimas visitas han cambiado de receta sus mejores platillos, el servicio es malo, el café sabe a agua de calcetín y hoy fui y estaba cerrado antes de su horario de cierre.

Pros: Buen sushi

Cons: Mal servicio , No cumplen con el horario , Cambian recetas continuamente

LOS MEJORES CHILAQUILES

La última vez que vine a PDC, vine aquí, era de los pocos restaurantes veganos, no me había gustado mucho

Hoy, los chilaquiles son los más ricos que he probado en toda mi estancia ahí, con sabor a chile, picocitos, el chorizo vegano y la cebolla le dio un toque muy rico

Amazing Vegan Breakfast

It was a long walk from our hotel but the reviews were all good and I really wanted a yummy vegan breakfast while on vacation. It was worth the walk! The juices were so fresh and delicious. The food was wonderful. We had eggs and greens, and waffles. Everything was so good!! We would definitely go back.

Vegan Brunch

The Pitted Date is a fully vegan restaurant just outside the main tourist area on a quiet street surrounded by newer condos.
We shared two dishes. The “Eggs” and greens not only looked like a piece of art it was outstanding
It was a piece of brioche bread, vegan egg, and spinach. It cost 169 pesos.

We also shared the Croque Monsieur which cost 219 pesos. It was bread slathered with vegan egg and cheese It was good but we both preferred the eggs and greens.

Pros: Many brunch items , All vegan

Good food, kinda pricey

The food is honestly some of the best vegan food in playa - hands down. But it’s a bit on the pricey side, and service can sometimes be slow. But still worth going

So Smoothie

Updated Jan 2023: Back again, this time for breakfast. Still yummy. Photos added.

Original Jan 2017: Wish we had time to stop for breakfast. Would have loved to try the "banana sushi". Since we were is a rush, we got the Breakfast Smoothie to go. Definitely yummy.

You won’t leave hungry

This is noted as the best vegan spot in PDC and it’s definitely up there! They are truly unique with their dishes, which I love. The portions are much bigger than I expected too, so you won’t leave hungry for sure.

Not knowing the size I ordered two dishes- the Croque Monsieur, which was a cheese and bechamel sandwich I don’t even know how to properly describe, but it was great! I also had the Savoury Crepe which was healthier and good, but not wow.

Overall it was a great dining experience worth trying again to see how the rest of their menu stacks up.

There two types

Of restaurants nowadays, the ones that care about service/quality and the ones that care more about presentation/the gram. I think this place belongs to the latter. Aside from the presentation of the dish and the interior I couldn't pick much else as positive.

They seem to have changed and not for the better. It is either shut or empty these days! Sad as used to love it!

Nope, just no

For a place described as vegan bakery, they had not even one baked item available to order. A cafe which cannot prepare coffee without spoiling it. Place was empty, we only ordered coffee and cupcake. One coffee didn't arrive because they forgot and something described as cupcake was actually raw cake full of sugar. Presentation was nice but it's just looks. Very distracted service too. Shame places like this come up as "top rated"

fancy delicious food

I went here several times because the food was so delicious!
the food is super delicious, has lots of different flavors and is of very good quality! it is presented really beautifully on the plate, you can tell the chef is putting the extra effort in it!
same goes for the drinks.
the prices are bit higher than in other restaurants but totally worth the quality of the food and overall the restaurant.
the venue has a masculine vibe to it with lots of dark wood, metall and black walls, everything looks stylish.
the staff is very attentive but not in an annoying way and friendly!

Come on guys….

I’ve eaten here at Pitted Date before, this trip I have to say they have gone downhill. First of all, the AC doesn’t work & they do not seem to be in a hurry to fix it. I asked. So we’re sitting outside now. It’s obviously MORE hot but inside is way hotter with no air flow. How are people supposed to enjoy a meal when they are sweating their life away? Now that we’re sitting outside & uncomfortable, I don’t even think we’re gonna eat here. Service is shot to hell. No functioning air conditioning. & the vibe is just off. Disappointment. It used to be so much better here.

Pros: All vegan

Cons: Bad service , No functioning AC. about 90° inside the restaurnt

My favorite meal in Playa del Carmen!

I got the sausage wrap which was delicious!! I loved how flavorful it was! I also got a matcha which was so good!! One of the best I've had. I got the caramel mocha bar for dessert. It was very heavy! I didn't love it, but I don't love mocha so I blame myself for ordering the wrong thing. My friend got the huevos rancheros and loved them and also got the tropical mango cupcake. She loved the cupcake, it was filled with mango inside! I was jealous and wish I had ordered a cupcake (they have a few different flavors)

The server was really nice and helpful! and also filled my water bottle when we were leaving which I really appreciated!

I wish I was in Playa longer so I could have come back and tried more things! There's so many things that sound good on the menu!

ALSO Important info!! while I was there I asked about the hours as people were still being served at 2:30 when we were leaving. They close at 4pm. The server told me someone hacked their accounts so the hours on google are incorrect. Their instagram was also hacked and their new instagram is: https://instagram.com/ilovetpd

Reopened and delicious

I have bren to Playa del Carmen on october 9th to 10th and just tried my luck and showed up at the pitted date at 9am. Luckly the where allready open and I had the chance to try on of their delicious meals.

They mentioned that they have reopened just two days ago and that they are serving a bit if a smaller menu (see fotos) than usual. Anyways, the selection is still well deversified and it was hard for my to choose.

I went with the creoa de espinacha and it was delicious! I had a capoucino with soy milk and a juice with it and I was happy with eveything.

The service was friendly, helpful an fast. The location is very nice and stylish. There are seating options in and outside.

Go and try it! It is absolutly worth it!

Pros: Plenty of vegan meals

Pros: The menu is very varied and fair priced , They don’t have soy and have a lot of GF option , They make everything in-house

Cons: I can’t think of any haha
