   GREAT food, but PLEASE turn the music down inside the restaurant. I could barely carry on a conversation with the rest of the people at my table.

   # A Taste of Modern Mexican Paradise at Mi Vida **★★★★★ (5/5 stars)** From the moment you step into Mi Vida, it's clear this isn't your average Mexican restaurant. The space strikes a perfect balance between contemporary elegance and authentic charm, with thoughtfully curated decorations that transport you straight to Mexico while maintaining a modern flair. ## Ambiance The interior design deserves special mention—beautifully decorated with attention to every detail, creating an atmosphere that's both sophisticated and welcoming. The lighting creates the perfect mood for any occasion, whether it's a romantic dinner or gathering with friends. What truly sets Mi Vida apart is that this attention to ambiance extends to their outdoor seating area as well, offering a picturesque setting that doesn't compromise on style or comfort. I was particularly impressed by how impeccably clean every aspect of the restaurant was, from the dining areas to the restrooms—a detail that speaks volumes about management's commitment to excellence. ## Service The staff at Mi Vida elevates the dining experience to another level. Everyone I encountered was not just friendly but genuinely attentive, striking that perfect balance of being available without hovering. Their knowledge of the menu was impressive, and recommendations were spot-on. This level of service makes you feel valued as a guest rather than just another customer. ## Food Now, onto the star of the show—the food! Mi Vida's modern take on Mexican cuisine is nothing short of amazing. Each dish showcases authentic flavors with contemporary presentation and occasional creative twists. The ingredients tasted fresh, the portions were generous, and the flavors were bold yet balanced. ## Value A wonderful surprise was discovering that Mi Vida participates in InKind, offering an additional discount that makes this premium dining experience even more accessible. It's refreshing to see a restaurant of this caliber participating in s

   The verde salsa is tangy & tasty. The chicken tacos are super tender, juicy and yummy. This was my first visit but I'd definitely return.

    I had fun. The happy hour offerings were tasty. I don't drink alcohol and would've liked more mocktail choices but the limeade was delicious. The biggest negative was the smell of burnt sage or a woody, smoky scent coming from upstairs. The smell would make me rethink visiting again.
