Wonderful place!

This place is absolutely delightful with such fantastic food! Had the Colombian empanadas and the Colombian bowl! Tried friends food which was also fantastic! Took the cheesecake to go: absolutely recommend that too!

Great

This place has become one of my go-tos on this trip. Vegan options are extensive on the menu with an enormous amount of variety. Everything delicious. And very close to the local gym I frequented on this trip.

Buen lugar

Es un lugar agradable, hace un año me encanto una hamburguesa con pan verde. las pizzas son grandes. Creo que pueden cambiar la url del menu no hay nececidad de un sitio con annuncios para un qr.

Pros: Bien ubicado , Buenas porciones

Cons: El queso de coco es muy fuerte y algo grasoso, El arroz con tofu también tiene demasiado aceite , Incluyan que puede traer la pizza armada porfa

Delicious food in an inviting beach themed restaurant

First, this restaurant has a pretty extensive menu. Everything can be made vegan. https://www.queresto.com/puravida

There are separate parts of the menu for cuisines from different areas in the world. I got a dish from the Colombian section. Tofu "eggs", protein "meat" crumbles, plantains, rice, corn, and sliced avocado. Delicious! I also had a strawberry and pineapple drink. Also yummy.

The interior design is kla relaxing surf/beach/water theme. Very inviting.

I would happily recommend this place to anyone.

Food was so good forgot to take photos

Amazing service, location, food, very comfortable setting. Rocking chairs (what more can a breastfeeding vegan mother ask for), macrame swing chairs.

The food was great. Our time spent in Bogota was at this beautiful restaurant. If it ain't broke don't fix it. Its hard to find to a restaurant that offer vegan options to also offer vegan desserts but every detail in this restaurant was well thought of.

We ordered every burger with lettuce buns instead of the traditional buns and it amazed us everytime. The juices gave us life and the sweet spiced latte was everything!

Pros: Great food and drinks, Great service, Comfortable and clean

Cons: We couldn't live there

Try it you - won't regret it

Had the ceviche for starter and burrito for main. Ceviche was to die for, burrito tasted nice and was pretty big. I like that the burrito was served with a generous serving of sauce so it did not get dry.

Food was still frozen inside

Great to have so many vegan options and the vegan pizza I had was good. But one starter, which was Australian meatballs, and one main, which was spinach and ricotta cannelloni were frozen on the inside still when it got to us.

We sent both back as we couldn't eat the meatballs, but were still expected to pay full price, and the spinach and ricotta cannelloni was overcooked with no sauce after being reheated 😭

Waiter was really nice but be careful about food coming to you cold

Pros: Good options , Nice waiter

Cons: Still frozen , Maybe change the menu too often

Lots of vegan options

I actually didn't realize this was a vegetarian and not fully vegan place until today when I came back to write this review.

I really enjoyed everything that I got from this place. My one complaint is that stuffed shells were a little too salty. The rest if my notes aren't too detailed. I also had a nori roll thing, a taco thing, and a juice that I really enjoyed. I also appreciated their packaging very much.

Venden buena comida vegana. Pero siguen vendiendo lácteos😔

El lugar es muy bonito y la comida es buena y variada.

Pros: Casi todos los platos de la carta son veganos , Tienen entradas, platos fuerte, pizzas, postres, Cocktails y variedad de bebidas.

Cons: Siguen vendiendo derivados animales, por lo cual , Siempre estará la posibilidad de que tu plato no , sea apto y hayan “confusiones”

Top vegan breakfast

The offer a really broad selection of vegan breakfast items and combos for sweet and savory taste and small and big appetite. ;)

I really liked the bacon and cheeze croissant. I feel that they served me another multi grain croissant instead of the almost croissant and put honey with it. It was nice and flaky and the outside, but a bit doughy/chewy on the inside. But one can't get too picky if they're giving you vegan croissants, I guess. It's nice that their baked goods are all vegan. I took a piece of alfajor and cake home.

I personally, do not enjoy the loud party music in the morning and also the interior is a bit much for my taste.

Good breakfast and pastries

So far we've tried their croissants and the breakfast for two which includes a wrap and pancakes with juice and coffee to drink. All was well tasting. Only thing I dislike is the party traveler music they seem to be playing often at a bit too loud volume for a comfortable morning, in my opinion.

Amazing decor

Amazing decor, authentic lush greeneries. I would take inspiration here for my home reno.

I really want to like the food and drink here. But the matcha latte tastes almost like water. The fried rice is just awful, rice too dry, coconut shred really can’t garnish fried rice, and onions taste terrible.

The gluten free rice flour cake isn’t bad though.

Pros: Amazing decor

Cons: Poor taste

Great atmosphere

I loved the bright and friendly atmosphere at Pura Vida. The first time, I went for brunch and had the American breakfast, which included scrambled tofu with mushrooms, fresh fruit orange juice and coffee (which I switched to fruit tea). Everything was super delicious and I really liked the scramble. The second time I had the Colombian empandas, the Mermaid burger and a green juice with turmeric. Again, everything was super tasty. Unfortunately, the empanadas were cold inside and the burger and potatoes could have been warmer as well, but still the taste was great. I love the fact that they have a big selection of juices and smoothies. Prices are high for Bogotá, but normal for the area around Parque 93.
All the vegetarian dishes can be made vegan, however I will give four stars for now since it would be awesome if the restaurant could switch to fully vegan in the future.

Pros: Lovely decor and atmosphere, Lots of juice & smoothie options

Cons: Prices on the higher side, Only vegetarian

Comida en mal estado

Fuimos porque había mucha variedad y la comida se veía muy bien, lo único que puedo rescatar es el servicio, los meseros son amables, lo demás muy mal. El lugar es pequeño pero tienen las mesas muy mal distribuidas, no hay ni cómo pasar, a pesar de que se hizo reserva quedamos arrinconados y todo estaba atiborrado, mi esposo pidió unos nachos, se veían bien pero estaban totalmente en mal estado y hasta olían mal, yo pedí un curry y me intoxicó casi inmediatamente, pedí un coctel de coco pero parecía que le habían vaciado la botella completa de licor y de coctel nada, los precios además no corresponden para nada a la comida y la experiencia, se esperaría algo mejor de ese valor.

Pros: Buen servicio

Cons: Ingredientes en mal estado, Ambiente estresante, Mala distribución
