    The staff and management here are refreshingly helpful, have excellent customer service and seem genuinely happy to work here. The food is extremely good. It is very fresh with a lot of flavor and authenticity. I would highly recommend this place to anyone!

    Nicest restaurant staff in Costa Mesa. Always greeting you with a smile, always doing more than they are asked, and the food is always 10/10.

    We love Que Vida. We go to the one of Huntington often, at least once a month. We’ve been to this location in Costa Mesa 3 times and each time it misses the mark. Steak and shrimp over cooked, sloppily wrapped burritos with a chunk of cheese at the bottom, missing items from our take out order. It’s disappointing because we love the food when it’s made right. A few weeks ago we got an el pastor burrito and there was almost no pineapple or meat…. Mostly just rice and beans. As I said before, we love Que Vida, just not this location. We’ll continue going to the location in Huntington Beach, just not here.

    The best Cantina in Costa Mesa. The staff was very friendly and attentive from start to finish. The food was beautiful and delicious. The menu has everything you could want and more. Portions were generous and vibes were perfect. Music and location also make this the perfect spot.
