Healthy looking ok food. I ordered a basic plate with salad. Salad was in sugary dressing. Wish I had told them to put the dressing aside. It is busy spot, can be difficult to find a spot for dine in. But wait time won’t be long anyways. Worth to try.

-1 star because of some people on the staff.
I’ve came here 3 times now cause I’m staying nearby. So after different experiences and trying different items on the menu I can say that food and coffee are great. Great quality taste presentation and also a good variety.
The place is beautiful, nice music always.
The thing is, most of the staff are on their phones or don’t really wanna help (it happened twice with different people that they text first, work later. Me standing there waiting for them to finish texting so they can give me a look to ask what do I wanted… cause also, they almost don’t speak either).
They don’t greet you when you approach them.
Btw You are not supposed to know how things work there the first time you go but it seems it bothers them to explain where are the pick ups, what to do if your order is not ready etc. They just signal, give you looks and that’s it.
I had one exception on the first day that was the lady at the register. She was super sweet and knowledgeable.
Overall a good place with bad service. It’s a shame

I had an amazing experience at Pura Vida! The atmosphere is bright, clean, and super welcoming!!
One of the girls named Sarah who helped me was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely made me feel welcome. They took the time to answer my questions about the menu and gave great recommendations. It’s rare to find service that feels that warm and authentic, and it really made the whole experience stand out.
My order came out quickly, was beautifully prepared, and tasted amazing. Between the great food, positive vibe, and outstanding customer service, Pura Vida definitely lives up to the hype. I’ll absolutely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for delicious, fresh food and a great overall experience.

I love Pura Vida <3 Food, coffee and service was always great here, when I lived in Bay Harbour Islands - this was my favourite spot. My only problem with this particular location (which wasn't a thing with other branches like in South Beach for example) - was that - why is there such a strong overpowering bleach smell inside? As you walk in - it literally hits your nose so much - you sit there and feel like you are in airport public bathroom after it was cleaned. It can get hot and noisy outside so people who prefer to sit indoor - have to smell this. Out of this reason, many people I knew - avoided sitting there and opted to go across the road to a competitor's cafe. It is pretty logical - the clientele that prefers 'healthy eating' - usually dislikes toxic harsh smells. For somebody with kids or allergies - it would be a major irritation. I thought it was super obvious, but it never changed and I was coming regardless, but it was a joke between friends. I believe when you sit somewhere with nice food and coffee - you want to smell bakery/coffee, vanilla, maybe some tropical/beach notes, but here it is concentrated Clorox. If I was the manager - I would just change the bleach with alcohol solution or hospital cleaner without smell or bleach the premises at the end of the shift so it can be ventilated before morning.

I absolutely love ordering from Pura Vida Miami in Bay Harbor Islands when I’m in between presentations. Their Summer Chicken Bowl with jasmine rice is the perfect go-to — fresh, flavorful, and just the right portion for a quick yet satisfying lunch when you’re on the run.

The Spicy Tuna Bowl was super fresh and perfectly balanced. The tuna had just the right kick of spice — flavorful .Everything tasted fresh and the portion size was great.
The Welcome to Miami drink was the perfect complement, makes you feel like you’re truly in Miami. not overly sweet — just right.
Special thanks to João for the attention. He made the experience even better with his friendly attitude and recommendations.
