Délicieux’ is truly an understatement! I had the new refresher “Dragon Fruit” and it’s an absolute must—bursting with flavor and incredibly refreshing. The Spicy Salmon Wrap from the Healthy Side of the menu did not disappoint either—perfectly balanced and delicious. Portions are generous and great for sharing. The ambiance is just right for a cozy solo lunch or a relaxed meal with company. A gem worth visiting!
First time at Pura Vida and I was thoroughly impressed. I got the Spicy Salmon wrap which was absolutely delicious. I also tried the iced strawberry matcha latte with oat milk which wasn’t that great to be honest, couldn’t taste the oat milk and it wasn’t really sweet despite the strawberry. However, the wrap and the service were the star of the show. My friend got the Smoked Sammy sandwhich, and she loved it. Our server Isa was amazing and responsive. I would definitely come back for this wrap!
Pura vida is always a great time to get some healthy Fresh food. But beware that you will be paying a premium for the brand. Basically this is a high-end clean eating restaurant which some could consider a little overpriced. Also, if you go at the wrong time it will be packed. However, the food is always solid and delicious. I have been to a couple locations here in South Florida and it's always great!
Fantastic food and very friendly staff. Like incredibly friendly. First time trying pura vida and was awesome! Thank you! Shei was great!
My wife and I went there here for a late breakfast the other day after a couple hour bike ride and the food and service were awesome. I love their all day breakfast idea. It was early afternoon by the time we finished our ride, but I was totally in the mood for breakfast food! I had the Perfect Egg Sandwich and the Welcome to Miami Smoothie. They were both delicious! Isa, who brought us our food, was great! She kept coming to our table to see how we were doing, see if we needed anything else, more than happy to get us water or extra napkins, containers, etc. She was terrific. Great personality, sweet, friendly, professional, and just added a lot of value to our experience there overall. I can’t recall the name of the young lady who took our order inside, but she was also great very patient and helping me to decide on the different breakfast and movie options they had. I am very happy with her recommendations and with this place overall. Looking forward to going back frequently.
This was our first time eating at Pura Vida, but it won’t be our last. Everything was fresh and tasty. The service was really nice. We had the veggie omelette and the salmon Sammy, with a fantastic cappuccino, banana bread, and matcha pistachio cookie. Good food that came out fast, but didn’t taste like fast food. Yes!
The vibe, the food, the service, complete package for a brunch spot. I got the Perfect Egg Breakfast Sandwich and asked them to customize by putting it in their ciabatta bread they use for their lunch sandwiches. They happily obliged. Kate, who brought my food, was great! Even though it’s not full service, she kept checking to see if we needed anything. Went above and beyond. May who took the order inside is also very welcoming. The coffee is also on point, not to mention their smoothies. This will definitely be my go to going forward.
Pura Vida Miami is such a refreshing spot for healthy, delicious food. The atmosphere is bright, modern, and relaxing — the kind of place where you instantly feel good walking in.
