Pura Vida

So happy to have found this place during my week visit in Miami! I find every other food outlet in the US far too salty. All the food here has been perfect and I’ve visited several times for brunch. There is sometimes a line but this goes by pretty quick. The staff are lovely and the service is great. The space here is beautiful. Highly recommend this branch.

I’m visiting Miami from New York and this Pura Vida location has become my go to for breakfast/lunch after one visit. The food here is ABSOLUTELY amazing! We got here around 11:45am. I was worried about parking in the area but we were able to get one right across the street. Paid about $3 and some change for an hour. The line was pretty long but they move really quickly and we were able to order and be seated within less than 10 minutes of walking in. We ordered the Summer Refresher, coffee, the Rasberry Pistachio Tart, orange poppy mini cake, toasted chicken in a spinach wrap, and a pesto chicken sandwhich. We ordered to dine in. One of the employees (Steph) was kind enough to wipe down our chairs for us before we sat down. Exceptional service! The food came out quickly - again took less than 10 minutes. I really have zero complaints about any of the good items we ordered - everything tasted absolutely delicious! The sauce that came with the toasted chicken wrap (Pura Vida sauce) goes well with it! Definitely recommend trying it out. It’s a great place to sit, eat and chat with a friend or a partner. It’s not loud at all and the music is not overpowering. Loved the atmosphere. Make sure to pay attention to the parking meters if you do decide to dine in and you park outside because I wasn’t paying attention and missed the deadline to renew my parking. Overall, I give this Pura Vida location a 10/10. Great service, great food, and great atmosphere. Thank you Steph for the great service! Edit: It started POURING before we could leave and we were offered an umbrella upon walking out. The service is just outstanding here.

The newyorker was good, I think the onions are a little bit too much but that’s my personal preference. The macarons for dogs are a little hard: more like a cookie. I read the label and felt that the pumpkin one was the healthiest choice for my little pomeranian. I also had the ‘welcome to Miami’ smoothie and was okay (comes in a large size!). The ambiance is gorgeous, also the decoration! I think chill music would go better with their concept.
