Lovely Spot for a Relaxed Meal! I recently took my friend to Pura Vida to share a place I really enjoy. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, especially for such a late hour, with the cafe nearly empty. We had a wonderful time catching up, talking for hours, and enjoying our salmon bowls with herbal tea. We’ll definitely be back! However, the salmon was a bit overcooked, and there were too many marinated onions for our taste. Overall, though, a lovely experience and a great place!

I got the chicken pesto sandwich, and it was so delicious. The staff was also very nice. The price was a little high for what I'm used to, but the potions were also kinda large. I think my husband and I could have shared one sandwich, and it would have been fine. I would definitely go back for another sandwich.

Pretty good food, if a tad expensive, but it’s expected for a location of this quality and fame. If you can, try to avoid it on Saturday from 11am to 3pm, it’ll be hard to get a good table.. We ended up eating in the car just to avoid the heat of the tables outside.. Açaí bowl was yummy and very pretty, and the Greek salad from another visit was also yummy. The strength of Pura Vida is its cute decoration and beautiful plating, not the service or the price.

This is my first time trying Pura Vida in Florida (I’ve only been to the NY one since I’m from there). The interior and exterior is beautiful! The staff are all sweet and friendly, we spoke to Agos ! She was very welcoming, showed great hospitality, recommended some cool date night spots nearby and some recommendations of what to try. I got the veggie crunch and a pumpkin spice latte. The food quality is so much better and much fresher at this location. Will be coming back, Ty Pura Vida for making my experience so great :)

Came for breakfast on a Saturday morning and this place was pumping. I was extremely impressed with the whole operations. Had at least 10+ employees working, food came out quick and it was all 10/10. This is how any establishment of this caliber should be ran. Properly staffed so it can run efficiently and produce high quality items with each order. They must’ve served 150 guests minimum at 11am and the service never wavered. Kale Caesar with grilled chicken was fresh, crisp, and flavorful. A classic that felt clean to eat and was massive. Perfect egg sandwich was a classic and equally as delicious. Coffee was surprisingly good considering most cafes in Miami are complete duds. Coconut Guava cookie is my new fav and the chocolate croissant was classic and flaky. Very good pastries. I’d go at off peak hours next time since it was so busy that customers were aggressive about the seating, maybe the only downside. But that’s the public, not Pura Vida. Build out is beautiful and shop is well maintained.

I can not find one negative point of this place! Everything is amazing! There went above and beyond about providing a good customer experience, boho decoration, healthy menu and friendly staff! I’m happy that you just opened one unit in NY, waiting for one in Long Island! Best breakfast in Miami!

I love the warm feeling I get in Pura Vida at Sunset Harbor . I feel like I’m home . Agostina and Iliana make everything in their power to be sure everyone is taking care and enjoying their food and their experience @PV. Thank you !!!!

The place is really nice and healthy. You have several options to choose and all of them have natural and healthy ingredients. You can choose bowls, salads, toast among others. Good place to have breakfast, brunch or lunch. They offer a lot of organic juices. I recommend you definitely have one. The only thing to highlight is that it’s quite expensive for the type of food.

It was my first time here and I loved it. Kale Caesar was so good! I'll definitely be coming back. Also, Mel was so kind and provided great service!

Pura Vida is my go-to spot, and it never disappoints! As a regular here, I can honestly say the service, staff, environment, and food are always top-notch. The moment you walk in, you're greeted with warmth and friendliness that make you feel like family. The staff is consistently attentive, kind, and genuinely invested in making sure you have a great experience. The food? Absolutely incredible. Everything is always fresh, and flavorful. Whether you're stopping by for A post workout shake (highly recommend), lunch, or dinner, it's always exactly what you need. I can't recommend it enough! Thank you to the amazing team at Pura Vida for always making great!

My husband and I go to the Sunset Harbor location frequently. The staff is always super nice here, and super helpful every time. The food keeps a consistently great quality and taste every time...or we wouldn't come back. I come here like at least 1-2x/week lol.

The toasted chicken wrap is so good!!! Highly recommend. Super filling because it has rice, avocado, chicken, and also cheese! Really flavorful too, and all the ingredients feel super fresh and healthy. The pura vida sauce is really unique. Wish I could try everything on their menu -- everything sounds delicious. The service here is amazing -- super friendly workers and once you order you seat yourself and they bring the food to you. The outdoor seating is so gorgeous here and such a vibe, but the ambiance inside is also super nice!

I am a fan of Pura Vida, and I really liked this particular one. It offers a nice and large patio area to catch a nice breeze and also watch the world go by. Food was fresh. Service was on point.

I got the wild ahi tuna salad which was perfect mix of crunch and tanginess where the tuna just melted in my mouth. I also got the watermelon cucumber drink that was very good with no added sugar. The restaurant was clean, open and bright and the servers would walk around and tend to you even though you ordered at the counter.

I came here on Christmas Day in search of breakfast. I brought my golden retriever with me. I love how dog-friendly this place is. All the employees were so friendly and constantly cleaning. We could have sat outside but i opted for inside. The inside played some high beat music. I ordered a latte with whole milk and the perfect egg sandwhich on an everything bagel. Both items were delicious and fresh! If I lived here, I'd be here all the time.

Super expensive plastic food !! Just the style of the place is kool otherwise there is nothing healthy about it I prefer carrot express it's cheaper and healthy

I visit Pura Vida every day, at the sunset harbour, but today, the service truly stood out. As a hospitality consultant who trains teams to enhance guest experiences, I can confidently say that you have a remarkable team member named Chels. While sitting outside, Chels passed by with a smile, noticed I was still waiting for my food, and greeted me with a warm "welcome." Later, she came by again, saw that I might need a to-go box, and offered it before I even had to ask. She anticipated my needs and delivered an outstanding guest experience without any prompting. Kudos to Chels and the team for providing such excellent service!

Food always amazing but the service at this location is beyond exceptional. Thank you Ili for being so attentive!!

Solid lunch/coffee choices in a bright and airy space. I ordered the ahi tuna salad and the chocolate pb smoothie - both are fantastic. They packsd the salad with crunciferous veggies, quinoa and green onions lol. Too much onions make the dish quite pungent. I wish they would scale down on that a bit. Seared tuna was delish and dressing was good. The smoothie was decent size and tasty too. They do charge an auto 15% service fee so heads up for that. The service was okay. It is very crowded and loud business with tons of guests going in and out so if you want some peace and quiet or to work, this is not it. They also have some delectable looking croissants and cookies too but I didn't try any. My mom loves it here and pretty sure she's going to be happy to come back.

One thing I appreciate about pura vida is the consistency throughout all locations! This one in particular is larger in space with plenty of outside and indoor seating. Food comes out fast. The acai bowl is always blended through and made to scoop perfectly. The regular and chocolate croissants are my favorite. The chocolate is stuffed decadently with Nutella yummmm. All their smoothies hit the spot, I have never been disappointed. And their savory bowls are ideal for post workout meals.

Been eating from this location recently since they just opened, and wow, their operations are so clean and organized. Last time I was there was on a Thursday around lunch and it was actually packed. The place is also very pretty inside and the food is presented well and is very fresh. Only down side is that they automatically add a service charge and also ask if you want to add tip when paying on their device. But if you are ok with paying $17 for a very tasty açaí bowl, then this is your place :)

Love this location! I love coming here to grab a bite or a smoothie sitting outside. Seating is first come first serve and you sit yourself after you order. Wish they had the option of ordering at the table, this is not an option as you have to order o my inside - no biggie. They have an extensive menu with so many yummy items. My frequent fave is the welcome to Miami smoothie and the chicken empanadas are amazing! I've had the mango salmon bowl, tuna wrap, and the butternut squash soup - they are all really good! Love their open and airy decor, so simple and chic. Will continue coming here!

Why did you change the Ahi Tuna Salad???? This is my weekly regular dish and it was half the size, I appreciate the spicy aioli but the raw cabbage made the salad and now it's a bowl.

Megan S.

Yelp
We come here religiously. This location and the bay harbour one are def favourites, but they're all always super consistent. Easy, clean meals and always the best staff by far. Today Nils and Ariel were helping us out and they're just so friendly and come out constantly in the heat to check on us. Flor is usually at the front and is always so pleasant. Our daughter loves her!! Coffee is consistently on point. And the matcha latte is an addiction I don't think I'll ever quit.

Don't get what all the hype is about this place. Ordered Uber Eats and had a very expensive kale salad with salmon that was average at best. The kale was tasteless and hadn't been properly seasoned/tenderized so it was hard and bitter. The salmon was very small, dry and over cooked. Also had a chicken empanada. The dough wasn't crispy and felt undercooked. Really nothing to write home about.

Still one of my fav places in South Beach for breakfast and lunch ! Jordan was amazing serving us today.

MY HEALTHY GO TO! I absolutely love Pura Vida, with its tropical vibes, light and airy decor, and it's yummy healthy food. My major go to has been the peanut butter acaî bowl that comes with a bunch of healthy toppings for a great price ($15) it brings goji berries, dark chocolate nibs, blueberries, strawberries, pecans, coconut flakes and finished off with a creamy peanut butter. It is super refreshing for a hot summer day and fills you up with healthy ingredients. Another favorite of mine has to be the pesto sandwich and do not forget the Pura Vida sauce (it's deliciousss) I have also tried their salmon mango bowl, and while the salmon is not as seasoned as I would like it to be, it is not bad. For my personal taste, the price does not do it justice. I recommend this place and suggest to download their app to order for pick up without an extra wait and to rack up on points through their rewards program. ENJOY!!

Shayak S.

Yelp
This place feels like a zoo. Staff can barely keep up with orders, service is non existent despite a 15% service charge. What's worse is that people who haven't ordered food just take over tables, so there's no place to sit for those who have ordered. When we asked staff to politely ask those people to leave they told us to order to go. Food is ok, but not worth crappy ambiance.

The chicken wrap was excellent and extremely fresh! The cole slaw was very tasty too. Beautifully decorated and extremely clean restaurant. Great service from Elaina. We will be coming back.

Ryan M.

What an absolute gorgeous restaurant. Pura vida is known for being trendy, and hipstery, but they freaking nailed it with this place. The decor makes you feel like you're in Greece or something. So beautiful. And the smell!!! It has the fancy hotel smell!! Delicious!!! Haha I got just a regular drip coffee which was basically $5 so a litttleeee expensive for just a regular coffee. It wasn't amazing but it wasn't bad either. It's gets the job done for sure! It's a great place to sit outside, look at the fancy cars drive by, and grab a bite or drink. Pura vidas are taking over Miami for a reason!! They deserve it.

Dasha K.

Pura Vida my love! This location is new and amazing. Great, fresh, delicious and healthy food. Extremely friendly staff. Thank you Luciano for your attentive service! Highly recommend and definitely will come again and again. Health is happiness!

The food here is amazing and I was equally impressed with the service. Lu (Luciano) was so kind and attentive, I was not expecting that level of service for casual dinning. He made our experience so nice.
