I was looking for a place to eat that is seed oil free & found this gem! Beautiful atmosphere, welcoming staff, Alex was great! Food was fresh and delicious. 10/10 recommend!

I can say with full confidence that Pura Vida is one of the most consistent and beautifully executed fast-casual brands I’ve ever experienced. Having spent 10 years in the restaurant industry and another 10 in multi-unti restaurant marketing, I rarely come across a brand that impresses me at this level — and Pura Vida absolutely does. I visited this location three days in a row with my sister, and every time the food, service, and atmosphere were flawless. The food looks exactly like the photos (a rarity in itself), the plating is stunning for fast casual, and the ambience is clean, detail-oriented, and thoughtfully curated with a chic boho vibe. Across multiple Florida locations, that consistency is remarkable. What truly stood out were the people. Evelyn, the manager, was hands-on in every detail (pushing in chairs, wiping down tables, checking in with every guest) and she did it with genuine joy. Alex at the front counter brought the same energy: personable, friendly, and clearly happy to be there. After three days, we felt like friends with the staff. Every time I’m in Miami, I know 100% that Pura Vida will deliver both great service and nourishing food. That kind of reliability and care is rare, and it’s why I’ll always come back. P.S. The Pumpkin Spice Latte with pistachio milk is a must!

A relaxed and easygoing spot, perfect for a casual break. They have a nice selection of coffee and treats. Friendly staff which adds to the pleasant vibe. Worth stopping by if you're in the area and looking for laid-back and enjoyable coffee.

An incredible place to enjoy. Every time I go to Pura Vida, I'm amazed by the excellent service and how delicious everything is. The service is warm, prompt, and always with a smile. The coffees are excellent, prepared with great care by Nicolás Meotto, which really make a difference in the experience. Without a doubt, a place to return to again and again, whether to share with friends or enjoy a nice quiet moment. Highly recommended!

Pura Vida, with Nicolás Meotto, creates excellent coffees with great care and kindness so that customers have a good experience and enjoyment. It's not just a place to "eat something healthy," but a space that elevates the coffee experience and conscious gastronomy. It's the kind of place you go to knowing you're going to eat well, relax, maybe get some work done, and that every aspect—flavor, aesthetics, service—is aligned with a clear vision: to celebrate life in every bite and every sip.

They aren’t lying. This is the best egg sandwich I’ve ever had. It was very easy to customize my order and had or subtract items from my sandwich. The staff was super friendly and handed me a menu right as I walked in.

We live next to another Pura Vida in Miami Beach but we often go out of our way to come to the West Avenue location. Although the food is the same great Pura Vida menu, the staff here makes this a special restaurant. Alex and his coworkers always make us feel like we are coming back to a group of friends. It’s the best atmosphere and service!

A great place to grab a healthy lunch… My family has been coming here for years. The cleanliness and the staff are really a highlight because they’re so attentive and professional. I will say one thing that keeps me from giving this place a perfect score… while the atmosphere is beautiful… It seems since Covid they pump air freshener into most of their locations and honestly it’s far far more offensive than pleasant. It’s well known now those scents are not healthy and when I go to Pura Vida I want to get healthy food. Since then I’ve rarely come back. Only drawback.
