Quality tasty food, Great people!! We stopped as we were passing through town, and had not previously been to any Pitas in Paradise. They have plenty of seating inside and out as well as at the bar. The staff were welcoming and kind, we felt like locals while there. The portions were generous, a "Full" bowl is a substantial amount; Our meal was a good value. Thank you to Ellie (sp?) for your kindness and thoughtful nature, it was greatly appreciated. We smiled miles down the road recalling how much we enjoyed Pitas In Paradise. read more

Usually a good experience but unfortunately the rice in my rice bowl was so undercooked it was not edible. It was a bit expensive for the rice to have been so bad. The service was also a bit unfriendly... read more

Passing through Gunnison decided to stop here for lunch always craving Mediterranean food! This place was packed when we got there super busy so we both ordered do you OG pita which has lamb so I think he sauce onions tomatoes in a really tasty pita. Audrey was a one woman show running the bar in helping to serve food couple cooks in the back getting the goods out to the customers. I was surprised to see that they have a full on bar here which is a bonus if you'd like to drink at lunchtime. The food was so good I kind of forgot to take a picture until it was almost demolished. The onion rings were tasty my husband had the sweet potato fries and they were also good. I like this place has a kind of a funky local ambience and a friendly vibe. read more

Pitas in Paradise - OG Pita - Mediterranean Near Me - Gunnison, Colorado

Originally we wanted to try a different place but it was closed so we ended up here. They do have few clearly marked vegan options. There is no clear direction what to do when you get inside so we were didn't know what to do for sometime until finally we got someone's attention and she explained that you order at the counter, take a number and they bring you food. I got half size Thai Curry with added teriyaki tofu, my husband got the chicken pita with fries. Food took about 20 minutes to be ready. The pita was ok, chicken definetly needed more flavor. They have a complimentary bottles of hot sauce so that did help. The fries were amazing, they have curly fries which are not very common but delicious! Portion was large. My curry was also good, the tofu had a nice flavor and it was crispy. I was glad I got the half portion as it was huge and I took some home. The service was ok. The place has a cool vibe and a nice outdoor patio so you can enjoy your food al fresco. read more

Good food. Place was a little loud. Just people talking and the echo (some were employees). Pricing was a little on the high side. However, we did have a good experience and have no problem coming back. 5 stars. Check out our YouTube channel at Coolest Life. read more

Stopped here for lunch as we began our three day stay in CB. Attracted by the outdoor seating, turns out he food is simple and good, and the draft beer excellent. I had a falafel, spouse had marinated tofu. Good music playing on the patio, a bit loud depending on where you sit. Enjoyed it! read more

Leaving Crested Butte and driving through Gunnison, I looked up lunch options and this came up. The great: 1. Lots of vegan options and choices galore for anyone. 2. Spicy lovers can live it up here! I had the Thai rice bowl because they were out of the super spicy one, but it was great with good heat. 3. Soup bar 4. Kid's menu 5. Can save 4% if you pay with cash. 6. Large portions That extra star for a few reasons: - Like Peter said in another review, basmati rice would've made it even better. - Vegan soup options - Not being out of the Calcutta curry--I really wanted that one. My husband ordered the chicken shawarma pita and it was solid. Twister fries were good, but not worth the upcharge. read more

Pitas in Paradise - Thai rice bowl. Vegan! - Mediterranean Near Me - Gunnison, Colorado

We stopped here for lunch on our way home from Crested Butte. There were a decent amount of people there around lunchtime on a Sunday and we were very impressed with the service and system as it appeared there were only two guys manning the food, register, serving and bar. We ordered the OG and the Thai bowl. Both were super tasty and good portions. The half rice bowl was enough for two meals and will be leftovers. read more

Yummy food! I definitely recommend for a quick and casual lunch. The pitas were delicious. We ordered the OG, Falafel, and Grilled Chicken Pitas and the Thai and Bombay Rice Bowls. My Bombay bowl was underwhelming, but still good. The thai bowl was scrumptious. All the pitas were to die for. The only thing I didn't appreciate was the outdoor seating. It was a lovely day, but the picnic tables had bowed benches and were uncomfortable. Nonetheless, I definitely recommend! read more

Glad this spot is here - quick service and yummy food! You order at the register and they give you a number for you while you wait or you can grab a table and eat there. Seating available inside and outside. They also have a small bar you can sit at too! Lots of options on the menu - I went with the OG and some fries but will be back soon to try the po boy and some bowls! read more

Food just ok (gyro). Out of chips & Sweet & Low. Pepsi products. Slow. Slaw was very good. read more

Absolutely delicious! Calcutta bowl was so good and I have extra for tomorrow so I'm a very happy camper.

Stopped here based in the reviews and it was a great choice. We ordered the lamb giros with a side if sweet potato fries and onion rings. The food was so good i forgot to take pictures :-) Audrey met us at the door with a smile and tons of energy. Great service even when I messed up the transaction. She took care of us and everyone in the place with a smile. Plenty of parking but I bet it does get crowded. Highly recommend! It was too early for me to have a drink but I did get a picture of the drink menu. Margaritas are supposed to be great! read more

I ordered the veggie tofu pita, and it was not good. The tofu was dry, not seasoned well and overcooked. I took 2 bites and had to throw the rest out it was that bad. The cook needs to understand how to cook tofu, that was one of the worse tofu I've eaten. The atmosphere was definitely good, hope the beer is better than the food. The hostess at the front was great and very friendly. I read some of the reviews and was excited to give it a try, was very disappointed. read more

The pitas are great. But they don't sell pitas on Football Sundays, so plan accordingly

My first time eating at this location. What an awesome treat! The coleslaw is amazing! It's the best I've ever had, seriously!! The pita sandwich I had was also amazing. I had the grilled chicken pita. I loved it! Staff was very friendly. High five to Kat, my server! I highly recommend this eatery when your in town! read more

Been popping in about once a week all summer. A solid four-star experience based on my usual order of chicken pita with curly fries and a cold draft beer. Then, for some reason, I tried the pulled pork pita. Bingo, here comes another star! If only I had known what I was missing... Dog friendly patio! A nice little discount for cash. read more

We ordered a Shrimp Po' Boy & a Chicken Pita to go; both were prepared fresh, which w ensures outstanding flavors & is well worth the wait. PIP staff are friendly, offer excellent service, & are always ready to help answer any questions you may have This shop is several "cuts" above your normal sub shop, offering a God' good selection of mixed drinks & beer on tap read more

If they were being honest this place would be called Frozen Flatbreads in Paradise. Pitas by their nature contain the ingredients they hold. A frozen flatbread taco, which is what you will get here, acts like a taco. As you eat the fillings push out the back a bit as you eat. Only it's not a taco, it's a big unwieldy piece of flatbread, and handles accordingly. Initially I was planning to get the Gyro, but the gyro meat here is also bought frozen so I opted for the hummus, which is house made and pretty decent. The vibe is cool, with a nice outdoor patio and a couple CO beers on tap, and steady local traffic. Not a terrible experience by any means , but for my money, if you're identifying as a Pita joint, maybe take the trouble to source actual Pitas of good quality. read more

Yum! We went as a family and snagged a table on a Friday. From bowls to gyros everything was amazing and fresh. Local beer selection was fun, too! It is first Come first serve seating so be prepared! read more

Fantastic menu and fun atmosphere and great outdoor people watching seating in both locations

Great food everything fresh. Friendly staff. Hummus excellent OG Gyro outstanding. Party of 6 and everyones food was tasty

Not very friendly but the food is decent. I don't think the server/host smiled at us once. The restaurant is quaint and appears clean with bar stools to sit at and a full service bar. I ordered the teriyaki tofu pita. And the habanero margarita, I should've chosen another drink as it doesn't taste well made. While I was excited for my meal, there wasn't anything that screamed teriyaki about my order. With a dripping mouthful of tzatziki sauce, the tofu was good but just grilled or maybe just sautéed. I do taste peanut oil but haven't asked but you should if you're allergic. My side was the coleslaw which was pretty good and full of flavor. My husband ordered the OG and he said it was good. His was the soup - Hungarian Mushroom which I thought was incredible and should've ordered a bowl to wash down my mediocre pita. My son ordered the kids chicken chunks and didn't eat much, but that's expected from a 5 yo. He said it was ok. The place seemed busy between the hours of noon and 1pm. Overall a decent restaurant if they could find a smiling host. read more

The food at pitas has always been amazing but the overall ambiance at the Gunnison keeps me from choosing to go there most often. Unfriendly staff and a bit of a shady crowd keeps me from taking my family there anymore. We love the pitas in CB.if you're looking for great food getting it to go is a great idea. read more

One of the better restaurants in Gunnison, plus its cheap and fast. Great outdoor seating for kids and dogs.

This is our favorite spot! Anything I've ever tried off the menu is fantastic. The gyro is GREAT!! The hummus is hands down the best. The rice bowls are huge, the Calcutta is my favorite. Always friendly and fast service. This is a great option for Gunny folk! read more

Fantastic fresh made pitas, gyros, soups, salads, etc. we swung by on the way out to myna and on the way back. Great grub, nice people, reasonable prices, and a what looks like a locals happy hour bar hangout. Oh yeah, nice partly shaded patio too. read more

I love pitas and Paradise! Food is definitely a 10 out of 10 so good! And it's totally giving beach day vibes!

The food is really good. The service is great. Very friendly. The ambiance is nice and welcoming.

Tl;Dr Food 3.5/5 Staff 4.5/5 Atmosphere 4./5 What a great place to get some really good food!! As a vegan I was impressed with all the vegan options! Further food breakdown Calcutta rice bowl 3.5/5 was really good! Good flavor and wasn't too spicy in my opinion. Rice was fine, wish it was basmati. Would have taken to 4 or 4.5 OG Pita 3.2/5. Two friends had it, meat wasn't as hot as it could have been and tzatziki wasn't as flavorful as they wanted. Otherwise solid meal! French fries 4.5/5 incredible fries! Crispy outside, soft inside, really good! Greek salad 3.5/5 lots of flavor and different condiments. The friend who got it with tofu enjoyed it a lot. Staff. The lady at the counter was very helpful and was happy to answer my questions about different items and what I should get! Food came out pretty quickly, however it wasn't very busy. Atmosphere. What a wonderful combination of sports bar, middle eastern and Asian foods, with colorful walls and eclectic design. Would happily sit there for hours with my friends. read more

Stopped on the way back to Denver from Telluride. Probably the best gyros I've had in Colorado! The staff is super friendly and the restaurant is nice with plenty of TVs for sports watching. Their fries are also amazing! Highly recommended read more

This was probably the best gyro I've ever had. Really fun, locals type place. I asked for a taste of one of the beers on tap, and they gave me practically a half glass. Do yourself a favor and go here. read more

My wife and I had a very enjoyable evening as far as a great wedge salad, very good baked potato and nice martinis. My only concern was the $78 16 oz wagyu rib eye steak. Much of the steak was gristle and that should not be in a wagyu steak. It was very tasty however. read more

Really good food and they've got alcohol. My husband loves the BBQ pulled pork sandwich. Fast service.

They charge a higher price at the register than is listed on the menu board. They have a sign for a 4% cash discount - also not given. When I complained waitress she I had to talk to the manager who wasn't there. Sorry....Pita was small snd nothing special. Maybe I had lost my appetite. read more

The Teriyaki Tofu Pita is delicious!! Service is fast as well. Highly recommend after a day on the slopes.

Great customer service! Everyone working there was sweet and super nice! The food was good esp the rice bowls! If in town, I suggest dropping in! read more
