My friends and I had a great first time here. The food was excellent and well-priced. Our server Greymar was adorable and very attentive. I enjoyed my spicy pineapple margarita, but it was a little weak for my tastes. Also, I will say that this place is definitely more of a party vibe. We were seated directly under the speaker and the music was blasting, making it hard to have a conversation with my friends. Greymar did turn it down because we asked. Overall, a good experience and would come back.

We were celebrating my sister’s birthday and had an absolute blast. The staff was attentive, the food was delicious and the party kept going until we shut the place down. Rodrigo, our waiter, did an excellent job in making sure we were very well taken care of. We tried several different drinks, but I’d say our favorite was the bathtime served in a mini bathtub with lights and a rubber ducky. If you’re celebrating Any event or just want a bite to eat …Stop in and tell him Harry sent you!

A group of friends came tonight for one of my friend’s 21st birthday dinner. Our server Greyber did such an incredible job taking care of all of us. He was super attentive and made sure the birthday girl had the best time. The food was also incredible. I ordered the Birria Rolls and they were presented beautifully and tasted even better. Overall we had an incredible experience and we will definitely be back again.

Such a cute spot! Music was great, ambiance was great. The fried beer battered Mahi-Mahi tacos, the Smokey asada tacos and the mango mojito mocktail were all amazing! Mojitos are half-off Sundays. All tacos are half-off during happy hour 11-5. The Hawaiian fajitas was also a sight to be seen, so much sizzling cheese topping fajitas served in a grilled half pineapple! Staff was very friendly. Decremented a star for some undercooked bacon wrapped shrimp we couldn’t eat, which they did comp which was appreciated. I’d go back again for the two tacos and mojito mocktail anytime!

Beautiful venue. I fell in love with the ambience. The food is deliciously authentic and the drinks look exactly as they do on the menu, and they were well made; not watered down. Friendly service, didnt take too long for order to arrive but we also went on a Wednesday night. The guac was better than Mi Cancun – can you believe that?! The steak tacos were perfect. I held onto 1 of 3 tacos just to savor it later bc it was so good. Bingo nights are on Fridays- I think I’m going to make this a regular spot for my Bingo nights simply bc the drinks were impressive and not crazy price considering the quality. Great for a date night or girls night!

My family and I tried La Buena Vida for this first time and we were very impressed and pleased. The food was great and the drink selection is really fun with an extensive menu with drawings of the drinks. Interesting names and glasses they serve them in makes it fun.

Cora was our waitress and she was really great. Attentive, friendly, and detail oriented, really enjoyed her helping us!

Very confident we will be back!

So I’m going to be as fair with this review as possible. The food is decent here and I will say management was extremely reasonable with the way things were handled, where I would come back. I got take out from this place a little bit ago and ordered a fair amount of food. I ordered the Chilaquiles. These were decent. Not the greatest presentation, and unfortunately they were soggy when I got to eat it (due to me doing take out) but again they were decent. I also got the Empanadas de Tinga, which were disappointing because of the amount of chicken you get with it, which was barely any. I could have imagined they would have been incredible had there been a normal amount of chicken in there. I also got the Enchiladas Verde, which also was an ok to good dish, it was a nice portion and the enchiladas were tasty. The best item that I ended up have by a mile was the Platano Rellano. This dish was outstanding, with the plantains which were cooked beautifully and the chicken and sauce on it was a dish I’ve never had before. I definitely would be ordering this again. Lastly, one dish I had to return was the steak tacos. Which all of this was ordered online and on toast, the photo of the steak tacos were completely different from the ones I received. All different ingredients and the amount of steak that came with it was again, barely any at all. Fortunately management rectified my refund for the steak tacos and even refunded the empanadas, which I didn’t say anything about because of the time it took to get the refund initiated.

This place offers fun drinks, great food and good ambience and we were impressed with the well trained staff and service too. We tried the chicken pasta poblano which was creamy and yum, tempura sushi was the best and the quesadilla was as good too. We loved the tres leches cake slice at the end! Such a hidden gem of a place! I will definitely visit again!

Cora was an excellent server, sweet & patient host.
The food was good too!
We had the Birria Quesadilla (4/5), Agave Chicken Tacos (3.5/4), Brussel Sprouts, and Churro Truck (expected more than caramel sauce and candy-cornflaked ice cream).
Drink:- Carajillo

The food was delicious. Particularly the chipotle crema with the brussel sprouts. Our waitress, Cora, was attentive and sweet. Our water glasses never ran empty.
