Some people might remember the disastrous marketing fiasco that Coca-Cola created when they changed the formula for Coke without telling their customers. Pita appears to have made the same incredible mistake in changing its iced tea brand/ formula. I have eaten at this Pita many times as you can see from the number check ins, nearly 200, (this number probably only represents 1/3 of the number of times we have eaten there with friends and family). When I ate lunch there today my woodfired chicken was absolutely superb but the Iced tea was absolutely very subpar and barely met the fast food quality. I had the berry tea, it was watery, lacked flavor and provided me an bad aftertaste. I have always considered Pita a great restaurant with the analogy of a three legged stool, good service, good food and good ice tea. The one leg of the stool has just been knocked off and the stool toppled and I am going to miss Pita because I don't believe I'll be going back anytime soon until they change the iced tea back to the Passport brand which has made Pita a solid winner. There's a Fox concept restaurant opening up across the street from this Pita and they serve the Passport iced tea so I will look forward to trying that restaurant out and certainly getting my iced tea there. Pita, let me know when you decide to change back to the tea brand that has made you such a good restaurant and I will be back then.
Kevin, thank you for taking the time to comment on this. I'm not interested in all of your reasons, I don't need to go online find good iced tea. You had it and now you don't, please fix the stool and get back to me. Please remove my name from your comment immediately you have no right to do this. Yelp I believe is exactly the platform for customers to report good or bad food and drink!
