WOW. I never feel compelled to write bad reviews about places I visit but my last visit to Pura Vida left a horrible taste in my mouth (quite literally). I am a Miami Beach native and have been coming to Pura Vida for many years. Over the past few years or so, I have noticed a steady decline in the quality of their food and overall service- as well as a steep increase in their prices.

Today I went in to get a matcha latte before going in to work. Their staff is pretty unimpressive which is consistent with my experience at other Pura Vida locations, but this is something I typically overlook. After spending a whopping $12.50 on a latte, (this included honey as sweetener, tax, and a service charge that was tacked on despite me asking for my latte to go) I was expecting this to be the best matcha latte I’ve ever had.

After taking the first sip of my latte, I was enraged. I am no stranger to what a matcha latte tastes like- I drink them every single morning. My latte tasted (no lie) like creamed spinach. It was hands down the worst matcha latte I’ve ever tasted in my life. Why was the latte (that I paid extra to be sweetened) taste savory? It was grainy, had a really foul aftertaste, and honestly not on par with my past experiences at the establishment.

I left the restaurant feeling beyond scammed and forced myself to drink every last sip because it was so unreasonably expensive. And for a restaurant that has built its brand on being health-centric with fresh ingredients, they could really use some better quality matcha powder and real syrups for their lattes instead of the pre-packaged Monin pumps that are full of preservatives.

Ordered a veggie wrap. Took a big bite and swallowed and it was a tuna wrap!!! I am a strict vegan and not not not cool. Get it together. I also bought a vegan cookie and threw it away. TRUST GONE! You lost a customer tonight. Have photos with receipt.

Lovely Spot for a Relaxed Meal!

I recently took my friend to Pura Vida to share a place I really enjoy. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, especially for such a late hour, with the cafe nearly empty. We had a wonderful time catching up, talking for hours, and enjoying our salmon bowls with herbal tea.

We’ll definitely be back! However, the salmon was a bit overcooked, and there were too many marinated onions for our taste.

Overall, though, a lovely experience and a great place!
