During our visit, we opted to try a few different dishes from the extensive menu. First up was the New Yorker—toasted sourdough topped with whipped cream cheese, spiced za’atar, smoked salmon, sliced tomato, pickled red onion, alfalfa sprouts, and a drizzle of lemon oil. It was the perfect balance of flavors, and the freshness of the ingredients truly stood out.
We also couldn’t resist ordering the Cheese Quesadilla, made with a toasted gluten-free wrap and mozzarella, served with a side of mandarin oranges. Simple but absolutely satisfying, it was a hit with our daughter.
And, of course, no visit to Pura Vida is complete without trying their coffee. We savored a perfectly brewed café latte, which was rich, creamy, and exactly what we needed to fuel our day of exploring Miami.
They fixed it! Solid burgers, idk why people are upset with them. First time and was worried about the reviews. The shake is quality, we got the regular bun and gluten free bun and it was tasty. The fries were firm and reminded me of five guys quality.
Try it out. I’ll be back!!
They have Gluten free arepas and they offer vegan cheese as a substitute. Lots of great options. We tried both the Pabellon and the Catira. Both amazing. Plantains are a favorite of mine and I can never get them made well on the west coast, they are perfect here. Great little spot. Highly recommend
Excellent Eatery. Quick service. Quality food. My wife has celiac and has eaten here twice with no issues. Chocolate Chip Pancakes for the kids, or the kid in you......
Loved this place! The food is so yummy, i got the ground sirloin kubideh bowl, and the staff was very helpful with my gluten allergy. Will be coming back soon!
This review is for outdoor seating only. And, if it hadn’t been for Sierra (?) the manager it would have been a one star review. We were seated indoors and told there were no seats available outside (even though we saw empty tables). Fine. But, the table we were seated at had water dripping down on it and we were asked to stand to the side as they took a mop and wiped the ceiling. Again, we asked to be seated outside instead and were dismissed rather rudely. At this point, we decided to leave. But, Sierra caught up with us, apologized and urged us to take a lovely table outside with a fabulous server and promised it would be a wonderful situation, and offered us some wine as an apology. It’s a tale of two restaurants. Outside was so much better. Fabulous vibe, welcoming service (I think our server’s name was Jen), and good food and wine. We had the Miami Spice and enjoyed the crudo and steak. Also, appreciated the substitution of gelato to accommodate a gluten intolerance.
One more thing, one of the servers dropped some wine glasses and glass shattered over my feet. They were apologetic though.
So, if you go, look at the menu so the prices don’t surprise you and sit outside.
This is a great healthy spot to catch a quick meal That’s guilt free. I enjoyed their salmon wrap, post workout smoothie, and autumn bowl multiple times and they were all pretty good and very healthy. I appreciate that they have gluten-free options as well. I would say it’s also vegan friendly with the smoothies. Ask for the fly fuel sauce! check it out!
My partner and I get the jalapeño roll and geisha like very weak. This restaurant is so consistently good and the service is amazing. We have a gluten intolerance and they always are attentive and careful and provide gluten free soy sauce.
Mitch is an amazing human I’m celiac and they made a mistake on the order in which they caught right away not only they owned up and made sure I didn’t consume contaminated food, my wife she is not celiac Mitch said “I’m gonna comp this pieces
Of nigiri and bring you a gluten free order exactly the same”.
I’ve been to places that they can care less and be upset over the matter. Besides that the food was phenomenal the ambiance is amazing! I hope they remain a hidden gem but judging by how busy it got on a Thursday night this place will be filled to the gills by march! Well done to the chefs and servers thank you for an excellent experience
Wow! Our meal was just excellent! This was the best veg burger that I ever had, every ingredient was top quality and so carefully prepared. It is that one burger that looks exactly like the picture with its perfect lettuce curves and soft bread- and tastes even better. Fries were crispy and flavorful and they come with house-made sauces. If you are in Miami you must try these burgers! They also have perfect gluten-free buns, not like the ones that start crumbling at the sight of the patty. 😋 outdoor patio is so cozy as well, perfect place if you don’t want to listen to the hum of a crowd while eating. Owner was so kind and gave us all super good vibes!
They are proud of their empanadas. And it is true, they really are that good. Also: made-to-order gluten-free empanadas. And the staff is super friendly
Amazing place, good food in affordable prices. Servers are bilingual and the staff of the kitchen is ok to make any change if is needed (For me gluten-free food). 100% recommended. Must try (Tuna & Truffle, Proteina, Mr Bombastic, Notorious and Roasted Kraken)
A hidden gem! The chef/owner was so kind to our party and sat down with us to discuss meal options. He even offered to accommodate a gluten free diet. Everything was absolutely delicious! Thank you!
