We went to two other Latin restaurants during our stay in Atlanta, but Pura Vida is the best. One spot was recommended by the concierge at the hotel we stayed at in Buckhead, but I found Pura Vida through Citysearch, and it was beyond worth it. The mojitos were great, and we fell in love with the Malanga Chips, the Duck-Maduros and the Coctel de Camarones, but I would almost have to list everything on the menu. Everything you could want is here, great food, great drinks, great atmosphere. Believe me, I have tried tapas in Vancouver, New York, Seattle, Chicago, Miami and more, and this restaurant ranks up there with the best. We told the concierge at the hotel that this was the place to recommend, and we have been singing there praises to everyone we know in Atlanta.
Pros: Great food, inexpensive, great drinks
