The "authentic Mexican cuisine" features standout dishes like guacamole and fish tacos.

    Service was good, waiter helpful, food prompt, cooking fresh, environment clean and welcoming. Food Fairly hot/ spicy , but great variety, and creative. Only thing we found a bit “odd” was the flavour of the corn tortillas, but that was probably our lack of familiarity, since we are used to flour not corn.

    We had the family meal service. The food was plenty for the 4 of us and very tasty! The churros at the end was a perfect way to top off a delicious meal. The wait staff was very attentive and friendly. I will definitely return!

    We were running a bit late due to traffic. I called to keep them updated and their staff could not be more understanding and helpful. I highly recommend Mi Vida, the service was great and the food was too!

    Food and service excellent, and they responded to request for somewhat quiet table, a time constraint, and a food allergy. All on a very busy night. Took good care of us.

    Beautiful restaurant and good service. Friendly staff. The food was good, good enough to go back but not amazing. Atmosphere was great and they were ready for our reservation.
