Costa Vida

I’m addicted!
Drink the Horchata. Delicioso! Que rico! Ay ay ay! ;)
Enchiladas. Salsa verde. Chicken. Chesse.
Mexican heaven !! ;)

This place is SO amazing. It is my favourite Mexican based restaurant. Not only are their entrees fresh and super delicious, but the desserts are amazing too! Place is clean and staff are friendly and inviting. Would highly recommend to anyone (the sweet pork is unreal)

All I got was bad service and an even worse attitude from the «Manager». I put my «free» meal in the trash as he dictated how and what I would be eating. Tried it in January and have never been back!

For some reason I cannot update the name/​address of Costa Vida. The address is 1900 – 715 Main Street, phone 403−948−0345 and the name is Costa Vida. Like Marjie S, I found the staff to be friendly and helpful. Costa Vida is very close what a Café Rio is like, for those of you that get down to Arizona/​Utah/​SoCal. Last night I had two sweet pork tacos that were made with freshly made corn tortillas and very good ingredients for about $ 9.00, but the thing that makes me rave about on about this place is that my favorite drink, horchada, was priced at $ 2.29 for I all I could drink. I am thinking I can only find this at some very special places that I have ferreted out in SoCal at this price, and it was mighty tasty as well here. Costa Vida’s salsas were very fresh, but if you are into habanero burn your mouth out salsas, you are in for a bit of disappointment, as the spiciest salsa has just a nice smoky mild flavor to me, the other is the standard fresh tomato based salsa that we are all used to. My pinto beans also had a very good flavor. In my final rating must think about how the ingredients like beans/​cheese cost twice as much here in Canada, as in the States, not to mention the labor costs, and I must say that Costa Vida does a very good job at offering some nicely made Mexican food! By the way they are going to have a Costa Vida very soon here in Calgary located near Southland Drive and McLeod Trail!

I used to go to Costa Vida practically every week when I lived in Utah. I love it! So glad they’re in Canada now.
It’s very fresh and fast Mexican food. By far my favorite Mexican place. You walk through a line and tell them what you want on your food. The most popular menu item is their sweet pork salad with tomatillo ranch dressing. It’s highly addictive!!!
I was so impressed at how cute this new location is, and how attentive the staff was. The price is also very reasonable. They’re about $ 9 – 10 per entrée, and I can never finish the whole thing.
