Pura Vida Cocktail Bar Restaurant

Went there for a coworkers birthday gathering totalling 5 people. We all ordered and paid for our food separately. However towards the end of us calling it a night we decided to do the Plan flight shots, that's where they bring a toy plane and hype up everyone and we all do a shot this was a total of $60 that we all decided to divide between the five of us totaling $12 each. When he brought the bill to separate the $60 with everyone at the table he was trying to charge$20 each pay $20 then he tried to give it to me and I told him I wasn't paying the $20 because it was $12. Manju we already closed out our existing tabs so this was a fresh start tab. So when my birthday girl was trying to explain to him that we were being overcharged he wouldn't listen and walked off and still charged her $5

Lobster pasta was just ok. The empanadas were awesome! Drinks were good. The music and atmosphere was great. I will need to go back to try some new things. Good spot for a ladies brunch or dinner.

This was a party of two single ladies. First let me say the atmosphere here is awesome. The music selections were on point for Valentine’s Day. The food tasted amazing unfortunately, they messed up our stuffed red snapper order. They also brought out food for one of us. The red snapper order came out 15 minutes after they brought out the pasta order. We were not able to eat together. The staff was nice but some didn’t seem to know what they could and couldn’t do when it came to certain orders. My cousin ordered the stuffed red snapper which came with shrimp, claims, mussels, octopus, calamari etc. we asked if we could take out the claims and calamari and put the octopus on the side. Our waitress left the table to ask if this was possible, she came back and said yes. When the red snapper

This restaurant is nice inside. I didn't care for the food. I had the salmon and mashed potatoes with vegetables. The salmon was dry and the mashed potatoes were not real potatoes. They were too thin and lacked flavor. I think salmon pairs better with rice. The broccoli was good and seasoned well. My friend had the pasta and she wasn't impressed with her meal either. The lemon pepper chicken wings were fried good but it tasted like they was really heavy on the lemon pepper and it tasted salty. The service was great. We went there for her birthday but we didn't get the fun that's described in some of the other reviews. We saw a large group that looked like they were having a great time. It's nice inside. The drinks were good. The prices are reasonable. The parking sucks but it's downtown.

First time here for a lunch with co-workers. Menu had a lot of things to pick from. Everyone got different types of food, mainly the different tacos plates. Food was fantastic! There was someone in our party that had a food allergy and it was treated with upmost caution and that was very appreciated. The vibe was great, good music playing! I bet it can get really loud in the evenings. We were the only people there eating at 12:45 pm on a Thursday. Our amazing server was Sage, who was so helpful and friendly! Can't wait to come back to try something new. The only thing I can suggest to the owners is the outside is very unassuming and bland. I always thought y'all were closed and never would've considered seeing if it was open. This place is a gem and everyone deserves to know it's open for
