We tried almost everything in the brunch menu and came back two timea during our stay. One time for burgers, pizza for the kids and mexican for the adults. Third time for take away sushi which was the best sushi I ever had.

Found this place on the Happy Cow app and it was AMAZING! Sometimes vegan restaurants can be hit or miss but this place was right on point. All of the meals were delicious, not to mention beautiful, and the service was great. We ordered off the breakfast menu . Portions were good size and the fresh juice was so tasty! They have a cute little outdoor patio and indoor seating too. They also have a great coffee menu. Highly recommended!!

Top quality vegan food. The care put into the presentation and flavor of each dish is astounding.  The side salad is a work of art in itself. Maca Faka, a maca cacao bowl, was the best smoothie bowl I’ve ever tasted. The service was incredibly efficient and kind. I’m only here for a few days, but can see myself visiting a time or two more before I leave.

It has been amazing to have so many vegan options in Playa Del Carmen. The Pitted Date restaurant has a lot of breakfast, brunch, lunch and drink options.

Everything we had was quite good and the only star I've taken away is because I feel the food can be seasoned a little more (most of the dishes have less salt and basically no spice whatsoever).

For drinks, we had yellow juice mix (quite good), inspired indigo (I loved it) and mocha frapuccino (it was bitter and didn't taste that good). Food - we had avocado sandwich, burrito, Italian bombelette, taco veganos (both cauliflower and jackfruit - the jackfruit one was spicy). The presentation was very good as you can see in the pics and the taste could have been slightly better.

But this is a very good vegan options in the area and I would certainly recommend going here once.

The food was delicious. Waiters super nice and everything vegan!We got al pastor tacos, sushi, omlette spinach toast, sausage wrap, and chilaquiles with red sauce and beans. My favorite was the chilaquiles (spicy)and the al pastor tacos made of jackfruit. The sushi was soo unique and exquisite. The fresh yellow juice is refreshing and we ended up ordering more of it to go. Definitely eat here if you're in the area!
