Great place, great food, and great live Salsa music from various Salsa Bands, Projecto7, Carpacho, Tato Suave, Joe Vallez, Papo Santiago's, and of course Their own AltaVida Rumba Night Club Djs Nelson, and Marroquin, also Jesus Enrique, and Jennzy solo singing
Is this place shut down for good now? It was closed last Thursday PM, and nobody answering tonight (Friday) at 5PM. Well they must have been paying an arm & leg for that space, and I've never seen it busy so... we'll guess "another one bites the dust?"

Heads up its closed! Made a reservation for Nov 9th on and they took my reservation. We get there and the doors are closed, lights off, and no one to be seen. Other couples were also there too looking to get in.

Made a reservation for Nov 8th on Nov 4th and they took my reservation. I get there and the doors are closed, lights off, and no one to be seen. Why was no one notified of the restaurant being closed? Why is no one reaching out to cancel these reservations if they’re closed?
Walked by today and saw multiple people showing up for their reservations. Way to waste our time.

Alta Vida is truly a gem in Naperville, offering an incredible fusion of Latin American culture, food, and music. From the moment you step in, the vibrant and welcoming atmosphere transports you to another world, filled with the rich colors, sounds, and flavors of Latin America. The food is absolutely delicious, with dishes representing the authentic tastes of various Latin American countries. Each bite reflects a dedication to quality and flavor, making the dining experience unforgettable.
A special shoutout to Martha T, who has done a fantastic job of bringing Latin American culture to life. Her commitment to representing many countries through live music every weekend adds such a unique element, filling Alta Vida with rhythms that make you want to dance! It’s a place that feels like a true celebration, and the live bands are an incredible highlight, adding to the energy and ambiance that sets Alta Vida apart.
Alta Vida has become our favorite spot, and we’re grateful to Martha and her team for bringing this

A rare gem! We just had an awesome lunch here.the guacamole is unlike the usual fair tgat we had to order two orders. The guacamolewas outstanding but the plantain, yuka and malanga chips put it over the top. The Arroz Con Pollo was wonderful and layered. The addition of the mole rub and mole side made it awesome. A special place with an excellent chief and staff.

A very lovely place with a beautiful atmosphere! All the food we tried was great! Recommend to try the tapas. The drinks were amazing! Recommend the mango margarita. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Lively music and a fun place for a date night or a night out with friends. Will be back for sure!

Food was decent, prices were normal for downtown Naperville, the server themselves was nice enough but the wait for drinks, food, refills, etc was a major issue. Normally I would give grace but when you only have 2 other tables with guests and you have staff sitting, drinking, and having a good time while members of our party are still waiting on their food for 30+ minutes, it can be a bit frustrating. The lack of urgency and care was enough to not feel the need to ever go back. There are too many great restaurants with amazing dining experiences and service downtown Naperville that I would rather revisit.

We had a 730p reservation and were not seated until 815p. We specified indoor seating and there were no seats available. It’s frustrating to have a reservation due to time constraints, and not have that reservation time slot honored. No comps offered for the delayed seating.
