    $10 lol
    Audrey S.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]The food quality is good and the ambiance is bright and pleasant[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], but it's infamous for being overly expensive for a reason. $10 for a bagel with cream cheese and tomato is a crime. It tasted nice and I liked the way they seasoned the tomato, but the upcharge feels shameless. And mind you, this was one of the cheapest food items on the menu. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This location's outdoor seating area is lovely[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] but will just pack my own bagel and eat it by the bay next time.

    BEEF EMPANADA PESTO CHICKEN
    Kimberly S.

    First time going to Pura Vida. I got the Pesto Chicken sandwich, it had goat cheese in it... FIREEE Overall a great experience. Food came out promptly and tasted all really good. Went with a group of friends, sat outside and Greg and Iliana tended to us and checked up on us often to make sure we had everything. I'd definitely be coming back here to try the other foods.

    Bug in the center of green onion

    I was absolutely disgusted to find a bug that looked like a small roach in my food. This is a serious health and sanitation issue that completely ruined my confidence in this establishment's food handling practices. This is not something I would have ever expected from Pura Vida given the location and more upscale fast food restaurants. What makes this situation even worse is the way it was handled. When I reported the issue, I was initially offered a refund only for the specific item that contained the bug. That response was completely unacceptable. If a bug made its way into one item, there is every reason to be concerned that the rest of the order was prepared under the same conditions and may have been contaminated as well. Offering a refund for only the single dish demonstrated a troubling lack of understanding of the seriousness of the situation and the legitimate health concerns it created. It was only after I disputed this and pushed back that they begrudgingly agreed to refund the rest of the order. Safe to say I will not be returning.

    Relaxing terrace for you to escape the AC and enjoy the breeze
    Mauro D.

    I always enjoy coming to Pura Vida, but this spot stands out. The almond milk matcha (with vanilla syrup, and just a pinch of cinnamon) is legit one of the best I've had, smooth, not too sweet, and super clean tasting. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The terrace here is a chill set up, there's usually a nice breeze that makes it the perfect spot to relax with a drink.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Also, shoutout to George for the great service. He was super helpful and got my to-go order out quickly. Definitely coming back for more.

    PESTO CHICKEN, VEGAN WALNUT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE, CHOCOLATE PISTACHIO TART, SPICY TUNA
    Cristina R.

    Absolutely love this place the food is always fresh and delicious. My go to is the pesto chicken sandwich and a chocolate chip cookie. Healthy food that is consistently good! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service and vibes are amazing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Good breakfast. I don't think anything really stood out for me, so nothing mind blowing for me but [[HIGHLIGHT]]it was a good location in Brickell, good service and ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    PERFECT EGG SANDWICH on sourdough toast
    Jeanette H.

    My cappuccino was delicious! As was my perfect egg sandwich on sourdough toast (everything bagel was sold out) w/ tomato, greens and fresh avocado paste. They were made with organic eggs. Sauce it came with gives an extra kick - just need to use very little at a time to adjust the spicy level that's best for you. Staff were very friendly and provided great service. Also bought some healthy snacks to-go -- chocolate date "balls" were great! [[HIGHLIGHT]]I just wished they didn't use the little machines to spray out perfume type of scent into the air.... It didn't smell like quality essential oils.. Hope it was at least an all natural aromatherapy type and not perfumes which aren't healthy[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].... I didn't want to be rude by asking them. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I wanted to hang out a bit longer but left shortly after I saw one of these machines right near me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I've convinced myself that the Brickell neighborhood of Miami is where I'm really meant to live (a majority of people here are literally in their best dressed athleisure which is how I prefer to dress 90% of the time!) and Pura Vida is one of the reasons why. After a morning run around Brickell Key, we were feeling #healthyAF decided to grab breakfast here and it didn't disappoint! There's breakfast served all day along with smoothies and acai bowls, protein bowls, sandwiches, and wraps. They also have a kid menu for your little ones. I went with the Signature açaí bowl and my husband had the veggie omelet. The açaí bowl wasn't anything out of the ordinary but I appreciated how fresh the ingredients were. My husband inhaled his veggie omelet (before I was able to snap a photo) and he said it tasted flavorful and clean. The service was friendly from the cashiers to the food runners. This location is also tastefully decorated, lots of beachy vibes right in the middle of Brickell. I'd definitely come visit again the next time we're in town!

    One of my favorite places for breakfast, lunch, and office catering in Brickell! Always good for either a quick bite or a long lunch. Service is consistently good, as is the food. Menu items are really clean and healthy without sacrificing flavor. The New Yorker (smoked salmon toast) is super high protein and makes a great breakfast. I also love the matcha and the avocado toast here!

    Great place to stop in for breakfast, lunch or just a coffee! Very cool vibes makes you feel your on vacation somewhere with amazing selection of foods and drinks. You order at the counter get a number and your food is delivered to you very quickly at any of the places best suited to your particular preference that day. Cute lounge type seating or tables and a big outdoor seating area to enjoy the nice weather in Miami. Our bakery foods not only looked good but tasted amazing and lots of vegan and vegetarian options Also very dog friendly which is a big plus!

    MATCHA LATTE
    Alice K.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very clean and cute cafe vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great for solo, group, or two seat small meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got the strawberry cowboy colostrum matcha latte with oat milk. It was soo creamy and not too sweet. Expect to pay the price for the vibes but I would definitely return for this drink.

    SMOKED SAMMY
    Sabrina I.

    Visited this spot on my cousin's suggestion while exploring Brickell, and it did not disappoint--it was delicious! Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly and given the option to sit outdoors, with the understanding that we'd order at the register and have the food brought to us. The order taker was friendly and even mentioned their rewards card, though we opted out since we're not from Florida. The food was incredibly fresh! I had the salmon sandwich, and you could tell everything was made with high-quality, healthy ingredients--nothing tasted processed. The salmon was perfectly pink, and the egg on it was a great touch. The mix of flavors in the sandwich was spot on. I also tried the summer peach & black tea, which was a perfect, refreshing blend. My cousin had the kale chicken Caesar wrap and loved it as well. The outdoor seating was a bit windy on the day we visited, but it was still a pleasant experience. The food took a little time to arrive, but it wasn't too long of a wait. I'll definitely be back to explore more of their menu items!

    TUNA TARTARE
    Melissa

    Stopped by Pura Vida for lunch and I'm officially obsessed. I had the kale Caesar salad, which was so fresh, crisp, and plentiful, and I enjoyed the tuna tartare as well. I had the coco azul smoothie, which is my new fave. Light, refreshing, and the perfect touch of sweet. It's giving clean girl lunch in the best way.

    What we ordered and payed for but DID NOT RECEIVE!

Food Quality: We ordered burgers, which unfortunately were overcooked. My husband decided to send his back, and while the second attempt was better, it still didn't hit the mark. We also tried the fried chicken sandwich, which was decent but fell short of the excitement promised in the menu description. Hunger vs. Quality: I was too hungry to send my burger back, so I ended up with a well-done burger that lacked the juicy flavor I was hoping for. It's disappointing when you anticipate a delicious meal, only to have it miss the mark. Pricing: I also found the prices a bit steep, especially for the drinks. The juices felt overly expensive compared to the overall dining experience. In summary, while Cafe Americano has potential, my experience was just okay. The food quality and value didn't quite align with our expectations. I might consider giving it another try in the future, but I'd approach it with a bit more caution.
