Kiva - Portland

The trip across town to get to this place was worth it! And, I was thrilled that they open early than most places. It was the perfect spot to get an incredible acai bowl (large portion size), warm drink, and be able to work on my laptop. They have a nice laptop bar with plug-ins. I had my first macha tea here and totally loved it. It was made with lavender--wow! This is on my list of places to be sure to go on my next visit to Portland.

Good place for a quick vegan lunch. Pretty healthy depending on what you order. We got an asian bowl and a vegan banh mi. Both were tasty and pretty filling. The food took a bit long but was worth the wait.

Hi everyone! I was there because I bought a Groupon for a couples massage. They couldn't give me the full hour and 15 minutes, but gave us a complimentary lunch! Lunch was very delicious! After lunch, we had our massages. The massage room felt very welcoming, and relaxing. I loved all the oils they used on me and the hot stones. This should rate 10 Stars! I will be back for a very relaxing day. Thank you Kiva and staff!

I just had the BEST spa experience of my life this afternoon. I 've always loved the cafe at KIVA. It 's a favorite neighborhood spot when I want to treat myself to something yummy. This was the first time I 'd ever treated myself to a spa treatment there though. WOW. I have found 'my spot. ' I had purchased a Living Social deal earlier this year. My deal was for a 60 minute hot stone massage plus a 15 minute mini facial with tea and treats afterwards. Michelle was my masseuse. She was absolutely outstanding. The ambience of the room, the soothing music, the room temperature and the heated massage table were all very cozy. The massage couldn 't have been any better. Michelle has magical hands. I appreciated her gentle temperament too. The mini facial was wonderful and much to my surprise my deal included a hot oil scalp massage. I thought I had died and gone to heaven by the time my treatment was over. I was ready to fall asleep! Per my request Michelle kindly allowed me to spend an extra few minutes in the room resting before I got up. I had chosen a pumpkin currant muffin and blood orange herbal tea for my treat afterwards. The muffin was absolutely delicious as was the tea. I thoroughly enjoyed my spa experience and would highly recommend them to anyone!

We love KIVA! We are lucky enough to have this be our neighborhood spot, but would come here even if it wasn't! Great menu (food tea), great atmosphere, and the best deep tissue massage I've ever had- all in one place! Hard to beat that.
