Come on guys.. . . ..where is your reservation number...should be answered both days and nights. Also, where is your website. Best you do not leave things up to Yelp or Guru....I'll review again after dinner tomorrow night. Thanks
First time trying and the staff took forever cause they were attending a bday table that was loud and obnoxious but we stayed and glad we did cause the food was really good. Cafe de Olla was good. Iced coffees not so much.
Both mine & my husband's dinner was very good! I had shrimp and ribeye kebabs that were seasoned wonderfully. My husband had chile verde spaghetti with grilled shrimp... Also tried a signature drink, a Paloma that was delicious!
Go give them a try.

Buena Vida Tapas Lounge offers fantastic food, drinks, and atmosphere, making it a "go-to" spot for celebrations, happy hours, and friends or family gatherings. The friendly and welcoming staff provide excellent service in a nice, clean, and not-too-loud setting. Menu highlights include the delicious chicken taquitos, Aguachile de Ribeye, birria breakfast sopes, chorizo breakfast flautas, Pulpo/Octopus, and crispy empanadas. The Mexican espresso martini and fresh-squeezed lime margaritas are standout drinks, though some find the mimosa flight a little too sweet. Prices are on the higher side but worth the quality and experience, with portions good enough to enjoy alongside drinks. The ambiance is perfect for social photos or watching games on the TVs.
