"If the thing that turns you off about Pura Vida is the smoothie-clutching mayhem—not the Goop-esque wellness of it all—then maybe try Cafe Smood. This is also one of those fancy health spots where you may hear a server declare that a certain smoothie is “good for your skin and gut health” but at least it’s peaceful inside and the service is good. The food is better than Pura Vida too. The place serves bowls, egg dishes, sandwiches, salads, and a spinach quiche we’d eat again. You can order it all for takeout, but you can also sit at a table and place your order with an actual server." - mariana trabanino, virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer
