Restaurant owner and chef Avi grew up in Haifa and lives in San Diego with his wife and 4 kids. Avi grew up in his mother’s kitchen tasting, watching, and later cooking along side her, wonderful dishes from the best that the Land of Israel has to offer. His connection to food and passion for cooking extends beyond the kitchen and he has always been close to the land and sea.
After operating for over 10 years Pastalini, a local Italian pasta and pizza restaurant, and catering Middle Eastern food, Israeli style, for the past 5 years, he is thrilled to open up his new restaurant. He decided to get back to his roots and he wanted to bring all those amazing flavors of the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine to the San Diego community. Pita 22 is a tribute to tradition and to good wholesome cooking that he is excited for you to share around the table with your family and friends.

2 weeks agoWe had the pleasure of being transported to the Mediterranean on a recent hosted experience at the amazing restaurant Pita 22 in San Diego, California โ๏ธ Jessica, the manager, was an absolute delight and did not disappoint with her recommendations. Each dish is made in-house and packed with flavor and freshness. With generous portion sizes, each bite left us satisfied, yet craving more. Hereโs what we loved: ๐ harissa sauce: spicy, bold flavor that packs a punch in every bite ๐ the pita was fluffy and soft and our 8-year-old happily gobbled them up with the delicious hummus ๐ the hummus fries were fun and flavorful ๐ the falafel salad was a delightful combination of fresh vegetables and flavor-packed quinoa and rice that left all of us wanting more ๐ the vegan portobello pita sandwich was delightfully delicious and satisfying, especially to our mushroom loving 5-year-old ๐ the shakshuka was savory perfection The menu is extensive and adaptable and is sure to satisfy any flavor palette and desire. Itโs in a fantastic location in a shopping plaza with ample parking. All tables were full at lunch hour with a constant stream of customers and it didnโt feel overcrowded and busy. The vibe is modern with a cozy twist, with family photos and plants throughout. ๐ชด This kitchen has done a lovely job adding plenty of plant-based items to the menu that are packed with freshness and flavor. We highly recommend and canโt wait to go back ๐๐ป #hosted #mediterraneancuisine #greekfood #familyownedrestaurant #plantbasedfood #culinaryadventure
