Went in for Happy Hour. Got a $5 Classic Lime Margarita with a sugar rim and a $7 Quesadilla Sampler. One quesadilla was chicken with cheese and the other was steak with cheese. Came with lettuce, pico, and sour cream. Overall delicious for the price. I enjoyed the music they played and the bar staff was very friendly.

10.21.22 Our 1st visit and we loved it. Walking in we were greeted by friendly faces and seated right away. Our waitress was polite, cheerful, and checked in on us during our meal. I loved the salsa and asked if we could buy some for home. She remembered at the end of our meal and after checking with her manager sold us salsa. Yay. The margarita, flan dessert, and meal was flavorful and served quickly. We left before the music started but hope to visit again. Bar area looked like a nice spot too. Good vibe.

Stopped here after work for a quick bite and margarita. The food, atmosphere and drinks were amazing! I had the ceviche and a hibiscus margarita. The waitress was attentive and the owner stopped by to check in. If you want some great, local Mexican food, this is the place to go.

Paid $17 for a taco meal and received about a tablespoon of filling in each taco. Also each meal was cold and my enchiladas supreme was missing it’s bed of rice and beans.

I was greeted on a staurday night by a welcoming and friendly staff. Zero wait time for a table of 3. A basket of Tortilla chips were immediately brought out, hot and fresh. The salsa was delicious. I love the atmosphere of this place. Very clean and upbeat. I ordered carne asada tacos and a frozen margarita flight. The food was ready in under 10 minutes and tasted great. My lady ordered a chimichanga, she said it was good but the chicken could have been seasoned a little more. Overall, I enjoyed my visit.

Vida Mexicana is truly a gem. Currently, two locations which, in my mind, places them in non-corporate. We enjoyed a wonderful experience Saturday 8/26/23 at 7:15PM. It is fair to add this was not our first visit. As always, the staff is extremely friendly, sitting us immediately (I expected a wait as the restaurant was busy)

Hands down one of the best Mexican restaurants we’ve been to. All the food was delicious — the steak tacos were melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the guacamole was the best we’ve ever had! Our waitress was so attentive and personable, which added to our excellent experience. We will DEFINITELY he back!

Service and atmosphere are great! They have a mariachi band and the service is great. I gotta Gigante burrito, Chipotle makes them 100% better though. I still enjoyed the experience.
