Pura Vida Miami

The vibrant atmosphere at this restaurant truly elevates the dining experience. Fresh, locally-sourced ingredients are showcased in inventive and flavorful dishes. While some menu items may seem a touch extravagant, the overall quality justifies a visit. The attentive service and lively ambiance create a memorable evening. It's a delightful place to savor a special meal.

If are trying to give off the clean girl aesthetic then this is the right place for you. Great choice for a healthy bite to eat. Workers were a bit sassy… I got the Kale chicken wrap which was very good. Everything was fresh.

I had an amazing dinner at Pura Vida! I ordered the summer chicken bowl and it was delicious. Portion size was great even though I went late last night, staff were very welcoming and polite.

We had salmon sandwich & 3 other pastries: chocolate croissant, frosted slice of cake & an almond tart. The tart was the best amongst the pastries & worst was the cake. Salmon sandwich was nicely done.

🫨 love the atmosphere, seating, and semi-casualness 🐕dog friendly (even indoors if pup is behaved) 🍃🍫Mint choco smoothie was disappointing (mint was real but could not taste chocolate at all and was way too earthy for me - I would consider removing from menu) 😞 🥐 Croissant egg sandwich was mostly good. The aioli made it good (without it would be pretty so-so) 🍪 Matcha pistachio cookie was disappointing too lol. Worth checking out, but the menu feels very experimental

Like they would say in Costa Rica: Pura Vida! And when you hit you will get why. Their vanilla cold decaf cappuccino is a game-changer—smooth, refreshing, and just the right balance of flavor without being too sweet. It’s become my go-to drink. The service is also top-notch—special shoutout to Richy, who always brings great energy, makes you feel welcome and clearly takes pride in what he does. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re looking for healthy food and great vibes!

Amazing breakfast spot. Their wraps and coffee are great. The chicken wrap with rice was my personal favorite. All of the egg breakfast sandwiches are also great

Everything was going well, the food was good. A quiet place to have breakfast. The only bad thing was that I was halfway through breakfast and they actually moved me from the area where the staff eat their breakfast. I should have been told to move before my order was served, there was no sign for reservations and I didn't know that area was designated for employees. If they had just told me I wouldn't have been upset at all, I didn't even finish it!

great food and ambience and friendly staff! good acai bowl and bakery and latte! recommend

My daughter asked for an Acai bowl so I thought I'd order some food from Pura Vida. I grabbed 2 bags walked 20 minutes to get home and saw there was no Acai bowl. There is no phone number to call so I walked all the way back. I explained the situation and the manager took my receipt and tossed it and they handed me an Acai bowl. No apology, no additional courtesy. Even saying "sorry for the inconvenience" would have gone a long way. Maybe throw in a cookie or something since it just cost me 40 minutes of walking back and forth. I have ordered here many times but forgot why I stopped. When they started they had great service. Now it's like they are entitled. There are so many nicer choices now in Miami like Carrot Express, Sproutz, etc - I will not be back. Order # 635 on 4/10/24 was the last. And judging from the long string of similar negative reviews they will eventually start to miss long-term customers like I used to be. 4/27/24 I decided to use the rebate I was given after the debacle above and so ordered once again (Order 417), and my daughter said she would go pick up the order because I don't want to go back there. I am not kidding, she gets home and again there is no ACAI bowl. She's going to walk back now to get it. I don't want points or rebates or anything from Pura Vida because this is literally ridiculous. It demonstrates the hypocrisy of these responses where there is an aoplogy but nothing is actually done to change. All they have to do is make it a requirement that every order is checked. Just look at the receipt and look in the bag before you hand it over to the customer and staple it shut.

Had a great experience at this location. Staff was very nice and gave me plenty of time to order. I had a bowl and my boyfriend had a wrap. Very filling and generous portions. I definitely could have shared my bowl. I ended up taking the leftovers home. We got a smoothie which was delicious but definitely on the pricier side at $11. Very cute restaurant with lots of healthy options. Would love to go back and try more!

Nice ambience, great delicious food, service is exceptional prices are a bit steep but overall I'm impressed

Cute place and nice service but this unfortunately was the worst and most expensive açaí bowl I've ever had. The açaí was frozen and very bitter. I went home and had to put honey on it. The pineapple was not ripe and there was barely any granola. Will not be returning.

Absolutely worst experience I've ever had in Miami. I've been coming to Miami for years now and decided to stay in brickell for the first time. My friends and I were looking for an all day breakfast spot and came across pura vida. A complete disappointment. I'm not sure if it was just a one day thing or it's always like this. Food was extremely overpriced (coming from someone who is from NYC), service was terrible and there was nothing positive to say for this restaurant. Order came wrong TWICE. Will not be coming back.

Coffee is the best ever! Busy but very quick. Loved the breakfast sandwich w turkey bacon. Had great service from Gaby! Thank you!

Drinks are good but the tip for togo coffee has gotten ridiculous. What is the meaning of a tip anymore? Are tips for exceptional service or just for service? Just increase the price of the menu items by whatever percentage, pay the servers a living wage and be done with it. Good drinks, nothing extraordinary but wont be coming back because the tipping culture here has gotten out of hand.

I really wanted to like this place but I think it's overhyped. I'm always on the hunt for good places to get healthy food on-the-go. I came in and grabbed the overnights oats and loved it! However, I was not a fan of the Signature Açaí bowl. You can tell they batch the açaí and then scoop it out by customer. Felt like it was eating a frozen smoothie fresh out the freezer compared to other smoothie shops that make the açaí bowls fresh to order. Lots of people were working remotely so I think it'd be a cute place to work for a few hours and grab a juice, coffee and light bites. Maybe pass on the other food.

Stop and Go | Location | Chill Stop and Go - Monica and I stopped in while walking around the area. We grab a few drinks and a snack. It is the ideal spot if you want a healthy snack at a reasonable price point. Location - it is in the heart of Mary Brickle Village. It is small but has a few seats if you want to chill and people-watch. Chill - Overall, the vibe is chill. It is a great first date spot or a spot to take a date the morning after if you want a quick breakfast. Also, it is an ideal spot if you want to grab some merch for a friend that only the locals in the 305 would respect. Why not 5 stars? - it is nothing special. This place is known on the internet as a trendy spot and that rep is well deserved. But, nothing about it is "that special" given the area and all the other stores within a 10 minute walk. Pro tip - no parking. So, be sure to walk or take an Uber.

I come to pura vid frequently and am honestly disgusted by the fact I found PLASTIC in my chicken wrap. Seriously? I have never found a foreign object in my food. Horrible quality control, this is unacceptable. Good thing I spit it out once I noticed the plastic texture. Made me loose my appetite and want to throw up my food. I will no longer be returning after being a loyal customer for almost a year. Wonder how many other people this has happened to.

Lately, I've been eating Pura Vida almost every day with no shame and I absolutely love it. I love how user friendly their app is and how orders can be ready for pick up within 10 minutes. My top 5 favorite things to order are: - The Kale Cesar wrap: simple yet such a hit, i have all my friends sending me pictures of this every time they order because we're all weirdly obsessed with it. - Breakfast Sandwich: you're healthiest option when craving a yummy bagel - Bali Acai bowl: If you love mangoes and almond butter this is the one for you - Beef empanada: add their spicy aioli sauce for the perfect kick - Pesto chicken sandwich: my all time fav, I started eating this so long ago and you can never go wrong with it + it's extremely filling so that's a plus. I basically order these on rotation every week and will never get tired of it. I love how friendly the service is and the consistency with this spot. It truly never fails. It does get crowded quickly but so does every other place in Brickell so it's not a big deal. For price point, you really do get quality and good flavor for what you're paying for. They have their brand so well thought out and have truly mastered healthy, flavorful, deliciousness in Miami.

Been to PV at a few different locations and it's pretty consistent. First time at the Brickell location and it was excellent. Kept the order simple: Signature Açaí and added Peanut Butter. Fresh clean taste and I think the addition of PB with the açaí and banana gives it a chocolate Nutella type taste. Location is crazy crowded but staff was friendly and helpful. Would go back again.

If I could give this place 6 stars I would. Latte was amazing. Avo Toast was crafted by someone who clearly loves good food and knows what they are doing in the kitchen. The poached eggs were cooked perfectly, not runny and not powdery hard. Perfect. Nice job!!

I am Pura Vida fan. However, this is my least fav of their chains so far. It is too small and not enough seats. Also they served their acai bowls to eat in in paper bowls. Service was friendly as always and the food great as always.

This is a really cute spot for breakfast or brunch located in Brickell. It can get quite busy especially on the weekends. I'm very conflicted because I can tell the food is definitely of high quality, delicious and they put a lot of care into making the food but it's definitely a lot pricier than I would be willing to pay for what I get therefore I'm giving it a 4/5 on my price for food "worth it" scale. Otherwise the service is exactly what you would expect from a quick service restaurant. You order at the counter, take a number and then find seating on your own. There's also a serve yourself water stand which is actually very well appreciated.

We ordered from Pura Vida and had a great experience. We each ordered the New Yorker and felt that it had a great balance of ingredients. We would prefer the juice to be colder, but it may have been a result of ordering online.

I love capping off my workout with a visit to Pura Vida for a speedy smoothie fix! The aesthetics are absolutely delightful, creating a relaxed atmosphere. While the smoothies might be a tad pricey, considering it's in Brickell, it makes sense. It was over $26 for two smoothies. Admittedly, the service tends to be on the slower side, but the consistently fresh flavors keep me returning for more.

The food is definitely refreshing and delicious just pricey for simple items like açaí, chia pudding and juices. The ambiance is cute, they should try a larger location as so many sit around working. The decor is beautiful. The avocado toast was also refreshing

Pura Vida is amazing! They are often crowded, but the food is worth it. They have healthy, fresh, delicious foods. The customer service is always great and they are quick. The prices are on the higher side, but I really think the quality/taste of the food is worth the price. I've had many things and I love them all. My favorite thing to get is the Caesar wrap.

Super super healthy food. Food is great. But for a lunch it's quite pricy and auto gratuity on a place that you order at a counter is a bit weird to me.

$52.80 for an ahi tuna bowl and pesto sandwich, no drinks and required and automatically added 15% service charge. This is not a sit down restaurant where you order from a server. You just order at the counter and there's no mention of an automatically added 15% service charge, then on top of it, they ask you if you want to add another tip. Same goes for bottled water and pastries, where there is nothing to prepare other than physically charge for an item at the register. Be upfront about it and if you require the service charge, then incorporate that into the price of food and drinks. The food was great, but not worth the 15% unnecessary service charge.

Great place, and felt good eating here. Ate here for either breakfast or lunch everyday of my trip because it was fast, healthy and beautiful to sit outside of.

Great quick service! Food was amazing per usual. Lili did a great job greeting me and asking to clear my table. Will come back soon!

So so good!! Amazing atmosphere, customer service, food quality and presentation. Love it here :) 10/10

I've recently given up coffee and Pura Vida's ginger latte has really helped me swap out caffeine. It's flavorful, creamy and, well, it's pretty. Luckily there are a ton of Pura Vidas around town to help me kick my old caffeine habit :)

After a few days of eating out and trying new foods. We wanted something refreshing, lite, healthy and restorative. So when I did my yelp search and found this place. It was on the to do the next morning. Hubs got avocado toast, which he talked about a few times during our cruise. He even mentioned coming back to pura vida before heading back to tampa once back in town. Kids each had a smoothie and croissant. While I enjoyed a smoothie and energy date balls. It was all perfect. Kids really enjoyed the homemade Nutella within the Croissants as well as their green drinks. All the smoothies were packed with vitamins , fiber and bursting with flavor. It was beautiful inside and the service is fast. We all left feeling good and kids raved how they enjoyed how the green drinks made them feel. No tummy aches and energy is what they said. This was a great visit and we really enjoyed all the healthy options on the menu. You pay for what you get. Cheap always costs more in the end. Pay now and save at the doctors later. Good food is good for the soul.

Mandatory tips in Miami was already ridiculous but service charge at the counter? Terrible. You say its for staff appreciation, Maybe you should pay them more yourself when you over charge this much. Im sure they'd appreciate that.

I was in Brickell meeting a friend so we stopped by this location. It is cozy inside and outside. Not too much space as in some other locations, but thankfully not as crowded :) The service was good, not noticeable, and efficient. The food was the same as in every location, so no comments here. Overall nice cozy place on a somewhat busy street. Self-parking on the street.

Wow the crunchy vegan veggie wrap is the best veggie wrap thing I've ever had. I'm always looking for a vegan protein alternative to falafel balls and these new veggie bites really do the trick. Love that you can see the corn and beans in them, soo good. Need to go back to try them in the bowl!

Service charge even for to go orders? Not able to adjust it or remove it it's ridiculously.

That response doesn't address my complaint. Seems like a form response for complaints about pricing, which wasn't my issue.

Great healthy spot that was very busy on a Sunday mid morning. There was a line out the door and there was minimal seating inside. Although there was a line, it moves very fast and I got my food within 15 minutes. I ordered the tuna sandwich which comes with a side salad, organic cold brew, and a cookie for later. Everything was fresh and filling. I had a hard time choosing because the menu was extensive and I wanted everything. The cookie later on was still soft and delicious.

Cute little place with a country chic vibe in the middle of Brickell. It is a great option for a quick bite. There are not many places that you can get quick food in the main area of Brickell. Pura vida offers smoothies, salads, wraps, sandwiches, bowls, empanadas and some other treats on the healthier side. Food is good and sauces are delicious. However, I found it to be surprisingly carb loaded. Other than a salad, there are no real low carb options. Salads are the most expensive item on the menu especially if you want to add a protein. So not the best place for keto or low carb diets.

After lackluster service last weekend, I went back to Pura Vida today with a friend who is vegan; I knew it would have some good options for here. This time, I was there around 1:30 PM on a Sunday and it was significantly less crowded. We ordered quickly, grabbed a table and were served our food without issue. Again, both of our meals were great; I got the tuna bowl again, while she had the veggie wrap. (And she mentioned the green tahini dressing was amazing!) Overall, delicious food - but be selective when you go, because they seem to get easily overwhelmed when the line is out the door.

I've lived in Miami and this place never fails. Great place to grab a quick and healthy breakfast. Javier was great and attentive at the brickell location. The service was amazing.

Food was very tasty and service was nice and prompt. Food is pretty expensive but high quality. Environment is nice for a chill breakfast or brunch.

Automatically adding gratuity for a smoothie TO GO is the most ridiculous thing I've seen . Won't be back .

best place ever!!!!!! family Great food, great staff, great location Everyone is super friendly and generous

Horrible! I felt so sick after eating here. The only good thing was the calm atmosphere. But I cannot explain how sick I will. I will say good on the staff for following up on my concern so quickly. I don't think I'll be back.

Falvy was amazing! Very helpful with everything! My smoothie was made wrong and she helped with getting it fixed right away

Unfortunately, this was a horrible experience. I went to order a smoothie. I sat inside at the bar area and one of the so-called managers came up to me, threw down, reserved signs and demanded I get up and wait somewhere else. Then when I went to speak to someone who could help me, the girl behind the register act is at if she had no idea what I was talking about, and started talking to me in Spanish. Then the woman who claim she was a manager, came from around the register, and proceeded to bully me out the door, and telling me I am not welcome and not to come back, I have never ever as a customer been treated with such disrespect in my life. I tried to get a name of the manager, but no one would help me! As a Miaminative and someone who has been in this hospitality business I am truly shocked what has happened to customer service?Horrific experience! There was a customer who had been sitting there for 20 minutes and told me how sorry she was for the way I've been treated and had never seen anything like that before. Also, it was at 4:30 4:45 in the afternoon and if that area was to be reserved it should've been when the store opened!

The food is good yet I feel overpriced. The space is nice but the club dance music made it impossible to have a peaceful lunch or speak to my companion. Just way too loud and obnoxious.

The food is fine. Not amazing, not terrible, just fine. Very overpriced for what it is. $30 for a chicken salad and a hot tea is highway robbery. The chicken wasn't even warm or fresh of a grill. It was as cold as if it came straight out of the fridge. The service charge on top is a deal breaker for me, especially considering you order at the counter. It's not a sit down restaurant, it's a cafe. I didn't see it mentioned on the menu and the first time I came here no one even mentioned it. The second time the cashier called it out and I was surprised (but it made the unexpectedly higher price make sense!) I likely won't come back.

Yadi was super helpful and friendly. Her customer service was above and beyond. She was very attentive and made sure our experience was 5 star.

Love love love this place. Literally my favorite. And shoutout to Yadi! So sweet & attentive !

This is my comfort spot/delivery option. It's pricey but the food is so fresh and well crafted. I feel like there's love put inside our meals! The açaí bowls are just amazing, perfectly topped. The salads are always fresh and crunchy. Everything is just so intentional and good. It's worth it. I've been enjoying pura vida since my UM days.

I got adventurous. My work partner selected this healthy alternative for breakfast. I really enjoyed the vibe and the light healthy food choices. The coffee was simply amazing. A great people watching venue, especially if you love dogs.

Got iced matcha latte to go and was waiting almost 10 minutes, all staff looks like not working , all smile laughing, two waiters was looking at my matcha trying to figure it out who it belongs to . Food is always good here . No complaining. But "for go to order" extra 1.09$ for service fee aka tip . You need to remove it , because I can take a cup from table by myself.

Pura Vida hits the spot if you want something healthy but still tasty. Got the veggie wrap and was surprised at how filling it was. It comes with the green tahini sauce, but the wrap is really tasty where you don't really need the sauce. However, that green tahini sauce is , it just elevates your meal experience.
