text: Pura Vida is amazing and Chef Mayra is lovely. \n\nI called for take-out and got \"Tha Frenchie\" while my friend got the \"Pura Vida Empanadas\", it was so good (my food and what my friend ordered.. I ate about half of his haha); there was a ton of food so, unless you're feeling gluttonous or just can't help yourself, you'll have leftovers. In addition to delicious food, the customer service is fabulous and the lady who took my order, Sande, was great, she gave me the eta of my food and called when it was done early. \n\nIt's just a bit off the freeway and well worth going to, even if you have to drive some, the prices are reasonable, and it's 100% vegan! A few people have complained about the wait, but if you want to be in and out quicker, call ahead (the website recommends it), running a restaurant is hard, as is making fresh and delicious food, I say it's worth the wait, just come with friends and have a nice conversation.\n\nSo nice to have a truly vegan place, I wish they were closer and open more, but it's probably a good thing, I'd eat my weight in their yummy food every day given the chance.\n\nGive this place a shot, you'll love it. :)
