Best Acai Bowl around, and LOVE that they have allergy friendly options. Many acai Cafes have nuts in thier acai blend. Pura vida has something for everyone though.

I love this place! The bowls are super fresh, delicious, and packed with yummy toppings. I’m usually not big on coconut, but their toasted coconut is super good! The Pura Vida bowl is my usual go-to. Everything tastes great, the staff is super friendly, and the vibe is nice and relaxed. It’s a great spot for a quick and healthy treat. Highly recommend!

Wow! The Mango Cheesecake Bowl is deliciously refreshing!!! The best Acai I have ever had and big bonus, this one is topped with toasted coconut, mini cheesecakes, fresh strawberries, mango coulis, whipped cream, and a mint leaf. Not a mango lover? They have a wonderful variety of flavors to choose from. The portions are generous and I could have shared, but .... I didn’t . It is always a pleasure meeting the smiles of the people behind the business who are passionate and work hard every day to bring a bit of “Pura Vida” to us!!! Thanks so much, Liz and Ethan Find them at 6203 NW 63rd Terrace, Kansas City, MO Lisa Bootleg Bourbon Balls

The best acai in the city, hands down! Liz and Ethan brought some of the best flavor combo ideas back from Costa Rica. Solid flavors and awesome service. Always nice to check out the truck too when it’s out and about!

Hands down the best acai I’ve had in years! Pura Vida Acai Cafe brought me right back to my days living in Brazil—authentic taste, smooth texture, and just the right balance. The menu is stacked with amazing options, and the vibe of the place is unmatched. The service is excellent and super friendly—you feel welcomed the moment you walk in. If you’re looking for real-deal acai, this is the spot.
