Visited the restaurant after the gym, wanted some quick healthy protein. As soon as I walked in was greeted with welcome in. The staff was very friendly and made good recommendations I got the salad was very delicious. TaJae the shift lead was smiling the whole time and Bailey was sweet. Definitely recommend eating here. And the place was nice and clean.

Costa Vida Fresh Mexican Grill on North Academy Blvd is a standout choice for high-quality, Baja-style Mexican food with a focus on fresh ingredients and bold flavors.
The Barbacoa: Perfectly shredded, tender beef with just the right amount of seasoning. It’s definitely the star of the show.
Fresh Ingredients: The mango salsa adds a bright, sweet-and-spicy kick that balances the savory beans and rice.
The Extras: The guacamole is chunky and fresh, and the grilled tortilla holds everything together perfectly without falling apart.
The portion was generous and the service was quick. It’s easily one of the best quick-casual Mexican options in the area

This is the 1st actual review of this place. The previous on was made the day before it opened.
For my first time coming here.
I came for the $5 burritos.
Specifically, the sweet pork burrito.
I went in to order and everyone was friendly.
I was surprised to see that they make their tortillas on site.
The other guys dont do this.
I asked for a sweet pork burrito.
They only had one option for rice but it was good. It tasted like Spanish rice.
The bean options are: pinto, black or refried.
The sauces are interesting: tomatillo, green or red enchilada (which they said was their hottest but its not spicy).
Then they ask if you want cheese or to have it smothered before putting it through a conveyor oven.
I opted not to do this because I wanted to taste the tortilla. Which beat the other guys).
After the conveyor they had a lot of other toppings before checkout.
I want to add that throughout they had someone on site taking the temperatures of the meats, beans and sauces.
Everyone wore gloves.
On our way out I say that they served fountain drink and horchada. They had hot sauces for in restaurant dining along with silverware.
On the way out, as it was their grand opening, some worked allowed us to spin a prize wheel where we won entrees, stickers and my son wore a hat.
The workers were kind.
At home tlwe ate our burritos and they were good. I would probably try a different. Eat and have it smothered but overall I liked it. It is comparable to the other guys but has so.e uniqueness to it.
I will return!
Friendly staff, clean restaurant and good food.
highly recommended!
I hope that they do some sponsoring of the high school across the street “the Village”.

I’m so excited for this new location! If you haven’t tried Costa Vida, you are seriously missing out. Think Chipotle but so much better…with fresher ingredients. Shout out to Izzy who assembled our food. She was so polite and took great care in preparing our food. She did a great job.

I have nothing but positive things to say about this location and the staff. Everything is modern, and it is clean. The food, most of all, is excellent, and the options are diverse. Maddie, the manager, does a great job to ensure that everything is stocked up and his staff has everything they need to do their job. I hope this chain expands in COS.
