Came here while in Miami. We had heard this was the place to come for a healthy and delicious breakfast. So we came here on our last day before heading back home. The restaurant is so nice and clean with plenty of seating both inside and out. My husband and I both ordered their breakfast sandwich that comes on a bagel. We both chose an everything bagel.We also ordered a drink, I ordered a cinnamon latte and my husband ordered a flat white. The sandwich was very tasty and the eggs were hard boiled and had plenty of tomato, and arugula and avocado. Our drinks were good too. Service was also very good, they came and asked if we needed anything else and came back to pick up our plates. Glad we were able to come and try it. read more

The ambiance is great, very fresh & clean decor. Friendly service. The food is delicious and you can taste the freshness & quality of the ingredients. Their menu items are a bit pricey but I don't mind paying because everything is so tasty. I had the matcha late which was spot on. my favorite food item to order there is the chicken wrap which is served with a side of their pura vida sauce and it's drool worthy! Pura vida has become my favorite brunch indulgence. Def give them a try :) read more

Probé por primera vez los pancakes gluten free y me sorprendieron gratamente. Vienen acompañados de sirope, frutas y huevos, que pueden pedirse hervidos o en omelette. Me llamó la atención que no ofrezcan la opción de huevos revueltos o fritos, algo que creo que sería una muy buena adición al menú. El servicio fue amable y la espera no muy larga. En cuanto al ambience me pareció que resulta agradable, porque tienen música tranquila de fondo que hace la experiencia placentera. read more

I've been a big fan of Pura Vida's coffees and matchas long before moving to Miami! When I moved to Miami and saw that Pura Vida was coming to my building I got so excited! This location is located right on 11th and South Miami so parking can be tricky. There is street parking a d a few private lots/garages around but it's also accessible through the metromover. Be careful swinging by during peak hours because this little cafe gets packed! There is plenty of seating indoor and about 4 tables outside but you have to go up to the counter to order. I've tried breakfast sandwiches, pasties, coffees, matchas, salads and a few other items scattered in there. Here is what I recommend: coffees, breakfast sandwiches, matchas, tuna tartare. I'm not the biggest fans of the salads to go since they look incomplete but maybe I'll have better luck if I have it there. Love the vibes too it feels like you're in a tropical getaway with their rattan lamps! Definitely give it a try! read more

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.

Nice spot for a quick healthy bite or smoothie. My favorite here was the açaí bowl - flavorful and full of toppings, really smoothly blended. The smoothies have a nice fresh flavor, not super sweet. There's usually a line but it moves pretty quickly. We had a few errors with our orders, but they were resolved eventually. There's a few indoor and outdoor tables, but they get quite crowded! read more

Great spot for relatively healthy bites and vegan options! The vegan banana bread was out of this world. So moist and wonderful. This spot was BUSY on a Sunday morning with takeout and folks dining in but service was still fast. We sat outside on the sidewalk patio and it was lovely to people-watch in a nice area of the city. Their açaí is definitely less sweetened than other places -- so probably healthier but may not taste like you're used to. read more

I am very disappointed with my experience at Pura Vida. I ordered a caffè latte, and when I received it, the cup was only about half full.

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

History

Established in 2012.

Founded in 2012 by husband-and-wife duo Omer and Jennifer Horev, Pura Vida Miami was born out of their personal need for fresh, wholesome food that could be enjoyed any time of day - a gap they identified during a road trip from Orlando to Miami. This experience sparked their mission to normalize the notion of healthy food, make healthy living both accessible and enjoyable, and create spaces that combine nutritious, delicious meals with a welcoming atmosphere, designed to feel like an extension of their own home. Since then, Pura Vida Miami has grown into a beloved multi-state destination, promoting a balanced lifestyle centered on wellness and community. Reflecting the "Health is Happiness" philosophy, each location is thoughtfully designed to embody their passion for health-conscious living, offering a serene environment enhanced by the brand's signature decor.

Meet the Business Owner: Omer H.

I'm Omer Horev, Founder and CEO of Pura Vida Miami. Born and raised in Israel, I've always been passionate about creating spaces that bring people together over great food and meaningful experiences. In 2012, my wife and business partner, Jennifer, and I launched Pura Vida Miami, an all-day cafe and wellness lifestyle brand rooted in wellness and quality. What began as a side venture has flourished into a full-scale multi-state lifestyle brand. Together, Jennifer and I lead Horev Hospitality, combining my decade of experience in South Florida real estate with her eye for design to identify ideal brand locations and create our signature breezy, cozy, and welcoming aesthetic - an extension of our home. We invite you to visit us and enjoy a fresh, healthy, and delicious meal in paradise!

I stopped at the Brickell location the other night when I needed a simple but filling full course meal. I was able to make a seat at the counter and was promptly attended to. This most recent time, I enjoyed their Roma sandwich, a.k.a. prosciutto and mozzarella on a lightly toasted baguette. A. specifically mentioned lately toasted because the kitchen stuff had great attention to detail in not having neither the plain bread nor a burnt piece either. The lettuce, tomato and yellow peppers tasted fresh, and I was given extra balsamic vinegar. As far as sweets, you're all right with any of their smoothies, like the acai one I enjoyed. However, just for good measure, I also enjoyed their Nutella croissant with berries and bananas.

The steak is thinly sliced, so the sandwich has great texture. It has fontina cheese, which is definitely unique for a steak sandwich in Little Havana. The star, though, is the mojo rojo they put on it. It gives this sandwich an absolute twist you won't find anywhere else. So trust me when I say, wait in the line!

They have about 5-7 bar style stools for seating, but in the humidity, it's not the most comfortable experience.

There is plenty of both outdoor and indoor seating but I highly recommend their outside courtyard. It's beautiful, with gorgeous dark lighting, decorated with a banyan tree covered in twinkling string lights, and a great atmosphere. The music and sea of conversations add to the entire experience. There are also fans all around to help with the summer heat. Our server was a highlight of our experience, Alex was incredibly personable, down to earth, and so knowledgeable about the menu. He gave us so many recs and was willing to talk to us about any and all dishes. He was energetic and just too notch. Now the food was ridiculously good. To start we ordered 2 pornstar martinis that were delicious, and came with their respective sides of prosecco. We ordered their agnolotti which came in an out of this world sauce, filled with blue crab and corn. It was just beyond. The flavor profile was incredible. We also had the hanger steak with a side of fries. It was perfectly tender and so good. Our only feedback is that we wished there wasn't a sweet glaze on top, since it overpowered the taste of the steak, and that the steak came with no sides or anything, and we had to order fries separately. We also ordered their banana toffee cheesecake with honeycomb ice cream instead of cinnamon ice cream. It was delicious, so creamy, nutty, with a burnt toffee taste that was so good. This was easily one of the best desserts I've had, and I'm usually not a banana flavor person, in fact banana flavor is the last thing I'd ever choose. Since it was my friend's birthday, we also got a slice of key lime cheesecake that was so delicious! Incredibly limey which we enjoyed, with a hint of sweetness. Highly recommend trying this steakhouse. It was amazing!

Our water glasses were never refilled, and we didn't feel like anyone was consistently checking on our table.

However, for a higher-end restaurant, I expected a much more attentive and polished level of service.

On top of that, our servers were phenomenal and made the experience even better. One piece of advice: get there EARLY. We arrived shortly after leaving our cruise and were seated without an issue, but while we were there, I heard people being quoted anywhere from a 30-minute wait to over an hour. If it's your last morning before heading home, that may not fit your schedule, but I can honestly say it's worth the wait. Amazing food, great service, fun atmosphere, and an experience we'll definitely be coming back for. Bistro's Cafe has earned a permanent spot on my Miami list!

Pura Vida is an incredible little health haven in Brickell that you must check out if you're ever in the area. The indoor seating is small but bright and beautiful, with natural trees and even birds flying around! People are often in and out, so it's not too tricky to find a seat. There is usually a line but it moves quickly and the service is efficient. The food was fresh, nutritious, and delicious! It's a true superfood center with each item on the menu providing unique nutrients to nourish your mind, body, and soul. I loved the "smoked sammy" sandwich with smoked salmon, egg, avocado, and lettuce on whole grain toast. The "coco azul" smoothie was also delicious and energizing. Overall, I'd highly recommend this spot. The location is also ideal and close to the design district and more! read more

I come to Pura Vida every single morning for my coffee, and it's honestly the best coffee in Miami. I'm a true coffee maniac, so I know what I'm talking about! I even find myself coming back in the afternoon for a second cup sometimes. I also really love the food. I'm gluten-free and dairy-free, and even with my restrictions I can always find something to eat. Everything is high quality, fresh, and always prepared deliciously. But most of all, I want to say thank you to the amazing team at Pura Vida. Everyone is so friendly, always smiling, and genuinely trying to help. A very special thank you to my favorite, Cami - she's an incredible person who always sincerely asks how I'm doing and makes my day a little better. read more
