    Delicious food, but I expected more variety of Aussie beers. Dining room is an open space leading to higher noise level. Service was excellent.

    La Buena Vida food was amazing! We were a party of three, had appetizers, entrees and desserts. None of the courses disappointed. Our waitress, Anna, was adorable. She was personable and made us feel as if we were dining in her home. She patiently answered all our questions and request. The menu was pricey but worth the cost for a celebratory dinner. They do have a Sangria Sunday special but it is every other weekend. You may want to check which weekend if you want the sangria and save a few dollars. I highly recommend La Buena Vida for that special celebration.
