Pure Energy Cafe Pacific Palisades

Perfect after a long hike! Food was delicious and service was great. All around awesome meal with the best views.

OPEN TO PUBLIC. Awesome menu of healthy and filling and tasty food. Don’t let the name and that it’s in a health club throw you off. I found it on Unilocal myself and I’ve been here four times in the last month and I’m so glad I figured out that I could come here. A huge bonus is they validate and you have a view of the ocean. Met the owner Rodrigo today and super nice guy.

My husband and I really enjoyed our meal here ! Not only is it delicious but very healthy. It’s harder to find because you can’t see it from the street, but just walk up two flights of stairs close to the bay club! The prices are reasonable for all the organic things they have. We will def be back

Fast and polite service. Deliciously tasty, healthy and well done food.
Stopped in after Getty Villa with no regret.
Free Parking available across W. Sunset by Vons grocery store behind Taco Bell.
Will be back!
Enjoy.

ATTENTION: this café is part of the onsite gym, but open to the public. While driving down PCH we decided to stop here based on the reviews, not realizing it was affiliated with the gym — but it was still a good find. WARNING: getting to the café for your first time can be a challenge, it’s in a large building which has an odd layout and no legend to guide you around. It took about 10 minutes to find the café once we parked. They have underground parking which you can validate — FYI.
The café is a casual atmosphere with sit down tall tables inside, and also has a nice outside area which has a an ocean view — bonus! You will likely be surrounded by people in workout clothes who just finished their exercise routine. The physical location is across the street from Gladstones restaurant, and across the street from the Vons grocery store.
The food was healthy and delicious. The average lunch item was just over $ 10. I had the Mexican garden burger which was filled with healthy ingredients, sprouts, onions, lettuce, etc. I could barely get my mouth around the burger it was so stuffed with goodness. I’d give it a solid ‘B’ grade, only because I wanted more flavor, versus healthy. My wife had the Chicken Chipotle Quesada which was EXCELLENT. It was spicy and plenty big with a side salad, earning a solid ‘A’ grade. We also had a strawberry energy drink to wash our nutritious meals down.
The café also has 2 televisions (ESPN & CNN) which will keep you looped into society. We had a good experience, and a healthy lunch.

Great place to grub after a hike. Good service and food is pretty good. Healthy and delicious.

This place is the healthiest in the area. They even have sea salt at all the tables. I love their food. The veggie burger, the veggie sandwich… Delicious smoothies.
However once I had a terrible experience waiting about 40 minutes for food because two guys, who both separately asked me what I was having, forgot to put my order in. Once they realized it they they apologized. But you’d think that they would have at least given me a discount on the food. But no. I wasted my entire lunch break waiting for a veggie burger there.
Despite that their food is great. But generally you can expect to wait a while for your food.

The people who run this place are so amazing. They really take it on themselves so make sure you enjoy your meal and make you feel incredibly well taken care of. Even if the view isn’t perfect or the ambiance is a gym club, it’s full of good vibes. I see why people keep on coming back, because it’s full of wonderful people and very healthy delicious food.

Stopped here for brunch last Monday, parked in a garage and couldn’t find the place for like 20 minutes:) it’s hidden upstairs inside some sports club.
On a brighter note, they have a patio overlooking the ocean, great smoothies and very fresh food. We ordered a tuna sandwich and an avocado tuna wrap, both were delicious, came in fast and were gone even faster.
Plus they validate!

Located inside the gym, but completely away from locker rooms and equipment, this is a great option for a quick, healthy and reasonably priced meal. I loved it, and thank my Unilocaly stars that I got steered here. Otherwise, I might never have come by.
I had a simple and delicious Chicken Breast with Egg Whites. (The Protein Plate). Comes with a bit of pico de gallo and flavorful guacamole. Plus a little fruit cup of, well, fresh fruit !
I see how some here think that this place is locationally challenged, being inside a health club. Well, get over it is my response. It’s clean, well-​lit, friendly staff and all very good. Only gripe I have is that parking isn’t so easy — but once you figure out a way, you’re set.
Not your typical place to consider, perhaps. But well worth a visit.

I had the Jalapeño Chicken Burger with a side salad. It was excellent! Juicy chicken with some sort of sauce that took this thing over the top, than the soft pieces of jalapeño inside was the perfect flavor combination. Not sure what was in that side salad but I’ve been craving it. They have a variety on their menu that sounded delicious like sirloin burger, ahi tuna burger, tuna salad sandwich so I’m definitely coming back here when hiking again in this area. Prices average from 7 – 9 bucks.
This place is located inside of the Spectrum club and just around the corner from the Parker Mesa Overlook hike. Parking is inside a parking garage and they validate. Out door seating area too.

I now work right next door to this wonderful café located in the beautiful spectrum gym. Beautiful outdoor seating by the ocean. A hidden gem.
They always make the best sandwiches and burgers, but today I decided to try one of their specials. I ordered the grilled chicken marsala, which came with brown rice and sautéed vegetables. Marsala sauce complimented the rice and vegetables nicely. Chicken was grilled well. It was a pretty decent meal that did not disappoint.
The Turkey chili soup was thick with various vegetables and turkey. Kidney beans, celery, white corn, red chili, diced tomatoes. Quite soothing.
Jungle lemonade consisted of spinach, lime juice, mint, parsley and lemonade. Tasted quite healthy. Despite the thick dark green color, the drink was refreshing and tangy. Worked well with the chicken marsala.
Staff was attentive.

1^st time here after a great 4hr hike. Ordered the Mango feast smoothie and it is delicious and very healthy goes great with the Grilled jalapeño chicken sandwich.
