"I absolutely love this Pura Vida! The energy is always joyful, the team is genuinely caring, and the space itself is beautiful and uplifting. Grateful for the delicious, healthy food and the love that goes into everything they do. I stop by there after my sauna sessions and it’s already my ritual, adds up to my happy life! Highly recommend!"

"My friend and I really enjoyed our lunch there. I had the spicy tuna bowl it was so tasty and fresh I’ll definitely get it again . The restaurant is very nicely decorated, very clean, it’s also a pretty large space and strollers friendly. Big plus: the staff were extremely nice, great vibe. They also have adorable macarons for dogs and cute merchandise."

"I've been hooked on Pura Vida since my first acai bowl in Miami Beach, and now that they've brought that same tropical magic to Williamsburg, Brooklyn, it's officially my cross-country happy place. Whether I'm grabbing a quick breakfast in the Florida heat or a post-yoga lunch by the East River, this spot never misses—always fresh, always feel-good, and always leaving me with that "why isn't every meal like this?" glow. Let's start with the food, because chef's kiss doesn't even cover it. Their acai bowls are legendary: thick, creamy bases piled high with granola, fresh fruit, and nut butters that actually taste like they were picked that morning (pro tip: add the bee pollen for that extra zing). In Miami, I devoured the Summer Bowl—mango, pineapple, and quinoa vibes that transported me straight to the beach. Over in Williamsburg, the Thai Salad stole the show: crisp greens, spicy basil rice, tender chicken, and a dressing that's equal parts tangy and addictive. Everything's clean, chef-driven, and packed with superfoods—no heavy regrets, just sustained energy that lasts all day. Oh, and the smoothies? The mango one is basically liquid sunshine—refreshing, not too sweet, and way better than anything from a juice bar chain. Service is another win: fast, friendly, and genuinely warm, like chatting with old friends who happen to make killer coffee. Miami spots (shoutout to the Coral Gables and Midtown locations) have that spacious, light-filled ambiance with outdoor tables perfect for people-watching, while Williamsburg's Kent Ave outpost nails the urban-oasis feel—cozy patio, high vibes, and a menu that screams "Miami transplant" without trying too hard. Staff like Sofi in Brooklyn go above and beyond, swapping out extras with a smile. Prices are fair for the quality—$15-20 for a hearty bowl or salad that doesn't skimp—and it's all gluten-free/vegan-friendly without feeling forced. If you're in either spot, skip the lines (they move quick) and treat yourself. Pura Vida isn't just a meal; it's a mood booster. I've recommended it to everyone from fitness buddies to brunch crews, and they all come back converts. Keep spreading that pure life—can't wait for the next location!"

"🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 An Absolute Gem in Greenpoint! Pura Vida Miami at 25 Kent Ave is hands down one of the most beautiful and inviting spots I’ve visited in NYC. The space is airy and full of natural light, with sunlight streaming in through large windows that give the whole place a warm, golden glow.

The food is absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. Whether you’re into healthy bowls, fresh juices, or something heartier, you’ll find something amazing on the menu. And the service? Fantastic. The staff is kind, attentive, and genuinely wants you to have a great experience. What really stands out is the overall vibe—it feels like a little tropical escape right in the heart of Greenpoint. The seating is super comfortable, and the décor is modern with just the right touch of beachy charm. I felt completely at ease here. I’m already looking forward to coming back.
