Buena Vida Tapas Bar

I would go back just for the coco coffee!! My server was great and the drinks were soooo good!

Buena is a great brunch spot! Nice and colorful! Staff was friendly and the food was good!

Great food! We went on a Friday night and they had live music - this added extra charm. The food was spectacular, we enjoyed some tapas more than others but we loved the Brussel sprouts, Chimichurri steak, and goat cheese fritters! Unfortunately, I don’t have any pictures of the food, we were too busy eating haha

My first time dining experience at this restaurant was enough to make me want to return. The music was very inviting, the food was delicious and the service was outstanding. The atmosphere made me felt I was on a tropical island. I think my waiter was named Mario who was very informative and explain the menu very well. It was a good day!!

Server was great, food better than average, patio was nice but the flies - the flies ruined the dining experience. They need one or two fly fans on every outside table.

Great spot for a date night. Nice ambiance. Great location. Awesome customer service. The food was amazing!

I love coming here for brunch on the covered patio. We order one of everything in the tapas section and it's all absolutely delicious! Love their drinks and the service is excellent. Can't beat the location just off the beltline either.

We had such a great experience at Buena Vidas thanks to our server, Achilles! He was not only attentive and professional, but also genuinely hilarious — he kept our table laughing the whole time. His energy made the whole night so much more fun, and he had the perfect balance of humor and great service. The food was delicious, but Achilles really made the evening memorable. If you’re dining here, ask for him — he’ll make sure you have an amazing time!
