“I had another amazing meal at Vita tonight. The chorizo potato’s special was incredible and for tacos I got the Carnitas, which is always phenomenal and the MASA fried shrimp tacos that were incredible..”
“A+ Tacos and A+ waitstaff as always!! We arrived last night on Cinco de mayo obviously expecting a wait. The staff were kind and courteous and kept us updated on the time frame. Once seated everyone was extremely attentive and didn't let our water or chips get low. We were extremely impressed by the amazing service and food we received on such a busy night. We tried a little bit of everything and highly recommend!”
“Some amazing new flavors. Mushroom tacos were a completely original take. Thank you. for the hot sauce and attention to details, including the ceiling decoration”
“I stopped in here for a quick bite and thought it was an alright spot to grab some food. The atmosphere is pretty nice and definitely has a fun vibe if you are looking for a place to hang out. The food itself was decent, but it felt a little bit overpriced for the portion sizes that came out. It is a solid choice if you are in the area and craving some Mexican-inspired dishes, but it did not leave a huge impression on me after I finished my meal.”
“My husband and I stopped here for dinner last night after checking the area for restaurants that were featured on DDD, expecting a unique dining experience. Vida was along our route, so we decided to stop in. We arrived at the restaurant around 7:15p and waited about 25 minutes for a table before being seated near the bar. The restaurant was a bit loud with patrons, but we were still able to talk with ease. I ordered the Apple Cider Margarita and my husband ordered the margarita flight. While the Apple Cider Margarita was a seasonal delight, the margarita flight was tasteless. The service was lacking, with quite a bit of waiting in between ordering drinks and ordering food. We ordered the salsa flight and really enjoyed each flavor! A gentleman came through to check on us with the long wait and brought us a refill of chips and salsa. We ordered an assortment of tacos including the Al Pastor, Carnitas, and Pork Belly. Each of the tacos were flavorful and we really enjoyed the spicy kick with the Pork Belly. The wait for the food was long, even when the restaurant quieted down, and it was barely warm when it arrived. It appears our experience was very similar to another recent review from JJ. Hopefully, it was just an off night, but we would pass on a second visit and try a new restaurant if we were in the area again.”
