"Fantastic food and caring staff"
"So I made an online order and arrived giving them a good amount of time"
"Lunch with the Family at Costa Vida! This Fantastic Fresh Mex has been a favorite for years, and their kid's meals are legit! I don't know about you but Our kids expect amazing flavor, just as much as We do and Costa Vida delivered! We had a Shredded Beef Enchilada Kid's Meal smothered in Tomatillo Cilantro Sauce, a Sweet Pork Salad with Tomatillo Ranch, a Shredded Beef Taco Kid's Meal and I switched out my typical sweet pork for Raspberry Chipotle Chicken on my Nachos and Holy smokes, I may never go back! Their Queso is one of my favorites!! Sooooo delish!

So I made an online order and arrived giving them a good amount of time. My food was not prepared. And what made it worse was the fact that I got my nachos withouth queso sauce which is the best part of the NACHOS! so I had dry nachos for dinner! So lovely.

I'm not sure if it's as worth it now that they just increased their prices but the food is still delicious and every time I've been the staff had been extremely friendly. The restaurant is very clean. It's a great place to eat if you're out and about. Great gluten free options. Nearly everything is gluten free. If you tell them about your allergies they have always been more than happy to change their gloves.

I asked for a fairly plain burrito, but holy cow where those some small portions. Honestly the smallest burrito I have ever seen made by Costa if I'm being nice I would say 1 oz of sweet pork. Also all the employees looked like they were being held against their will. I did not feel welcome.

Food was good and hot and fresh. I like this location because it is open and has good ambiance. However, the employees were more interested in getting out early than providing good customer service. They blocked us in with chairs while we were sitting down. We sat down an hour and a half before close. It made it look like we purposefully bypassed the chairs and we had to scoot through them every time we got a refill.
Food is great but pretty poor service turning people away because they ran out of tortillas 30 minutes before close and said they cannot make more. I tried to order 2 tacos and they said they only had items without tortillas. Worst experience at costa vida. 10/10 would not recommend this location to my worst enemy. Dirty store and worst customer service.

Great spot for a quick and easy bite! This is similar to a Chipotle, but with better and fresher ingredients. Staff where welcoming and helpful! Lots of tables to eat at both indoor and outdoor, with hightops, booths and regular tables. Everything was clean, and the manager came around and asked how everything was. 10/10! More
This has to be some of the speediest food preppers I’ve ever seen! The employees made the food so fast before our eyes and had such a great attitude. They were smiling and friendly and helpful. I ordered a small salad and all the ingredients are so flavorful and fresh. I would highly recommend it and go back again myself..
Tiny portions and everything from another sauce to sour cream costs extra. I haven't been in Utah in 2 years and I remembered Costa Vida being the best, I'm going to have to go try Cafe Rio.

I love Costa Vida! Their salads are always fresh and tasty. I usually get the grilled chicken or sweet pork salad. The size is great, I usually get to share with my kid because I can’t finish it . This location is very clean, and the service is fast. Love their fresh lemonades as well.
Super clean & super friendly! We appreciated being told there was no lettuce as we were deciding what to eat. Fresh & tasty food. The staff was friendly & worked quickly to handle the large line. Great to see management on the front lines working & not just standing around.
I really love Costa Vida. This is one of our go-to spots for non-cooking nights. There are a lot of vegetarian options as well as some really great omnivore options. This location has a nice ambiance and is really comfortable. The staff was nice and the food was fresh!
The line was SO long but the employees worked so quickly and were very accommodating of the guests. One worker pulled us out of the line and helped us order at the take out register. We couldn't believe it. These employees are amazing!! The food was yummy, too.
Good food and staff. They took time and explained their menu to newcomers very nicely.

This is a great location. I would warn you not to go during lunch on the weekdays because it's packed with all the employees from the local offices eating there. However, dinner time is usually quiet and quick to get your food. The staff is
This place has changed a lot in the past several months… I feel like the quality of food, the quality of service and the cleanliness of the place have all gone downhill. I went in today and they claimed they had ran out of tortillas so they
Great place, my favorite place to grab some good lunch. Fantastic people, always happy, polite and welcoming.

Aside from the food being just right, the people who work here make dining here an exceptionally positive experience. They are always very friendly and accommodating, which keeps me coming back for more. Thanks to such a great team!
I'm not a fan of quick serve...because it's never quick. This place has done it right. The line was long but very fast. Their local competitor could learn a lot from Costa Vida. Will definitely come back to this location.
Good food. Much better that regular fast food. Prices are a little high. $45 for 3 people. Drinks are extra. All areas are very clean. Can be very noise at times.

I love this location. Clean, friendly, and speedy. The food is fresh and I can be in and out on a lunch break, especially if you order through the app. I got the steak tacos today and they’re divine!
Not bad for fast Mexican food. I like the option of a small salad that Cafe Rio doesn't offer. They do the job adequately.

Great food. A little on the expensive side, in my opinion, but if you compare it to all the other food places that have jumped way up in price over the past few years, you could say it's reasonable.
Though it was busy the service was great. The tables were clean. As always the food was delicious. I would always recommend the grilled chicken burrito with hot sauce and extra cheese! Sooo good!
Very friendly staff and always welcoming. Great food and I will definitely recommend this place. Very fresh everytime.

Got some salad during my lunch break. This place is in the mall so during lunch break it’s pretty busy. However service is still quick and high quality despite the lunch rush hour
Very delicious meal. I ordered the pork salad and the ingredients worked so well together I felt like I was eating a salad from heaven. I would recommend this place.
I can say for the first time in my life, I ate an avocado and enjoyed it. The Costa Cado is a new keto option at Costa Vida This dish changed me. Literally!
I got the raspberry chicken chipotle burrito. The raspberry sauce was a bit to sweet for me, but overall it was a good meal. I was only able to finish half of it.
Food was very tasty. Prices reasonable. Service a little slow, but it was very busy.

Clean tables, clean serving area, friendly staff, consistently good food, and the manager walks around making sure everything is tip top. Great job, Costa Vida.
Food is kind of low quality for the price but they followed up to my issue quickly and did a great job resolving the issue for me. Awesome customer service
I ordered a Baja bowl and for $8 it was the smallest amount of food. Definitely not worth the price. It tasted good but I will not be getting this again.
Awesomeness is the only way to describe it. The food is fresh and filling and the help is courteous and clean. Thank you for your healthy options.
This costa vida is always the best! Great friendly service, fresh food, and they’re fast! I always feel like I get my money’s worth for the food.
Great food, great service! Although I feel like the portion size is a little smaller than other Costa Vida's (reasoning for 4 stars not 5).
Every time I come to this location the food is amazing and the employees are welcoming. You can tell they genuinely love what they do!

Awesome food and atmosphere. Always busy it seems, but if you order online you can skip the line. Highly recommend.
Service was awful with it not being busy at all. The whole lobby was dirty with full trashes and trays stacked tall
Very good service! Even though the place was packed they still provided great service and we got our food quickly!
Friendly and fast service. Portions of food were great. Left feeling satisfied not over stuffed feeling. Thanx...
I get the sweet pork salad every time! The horchata is delicious. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating.
Ordered regular nachos, got half as much as usual and no quaso?! A total disappointment.
