I have to agree with the previous reviewer?my most recent experience at Pura Vida was disappointing. Pura Vida was one of my favorite restaurants in Atlanta and definitely my favorite tapas bar. Well, I went last evening for a friend's birthday, and we were all saddened to see that our favorite dishes were gone. I have raved about Pura Vida to numerous people, citing specific delicious dishes (the calabaza rings were a definite favorite). I can understand swapping out items to keep things fresh, but I do not comprehend abandoning so many great items. Naturally, we tried the new dishes, but we were not impressed at all. Previously, we could order anything on the menu because we knew that every dish would be phenomenal. Sadly, this is not the case now. Also missing were the delicious specials! That was a big letdown, too. I know I'll give Pura Vida another shot-- simply because it WAS so good. I hope I am not disappointed again.
Pros: Sangria, deserts
Cons: Food quality has taken a nose dive
