    This was the most amazing restaurant I have ever been to. Ryan was a fantastic server for us and made sure we felt right at home and confident each question was answered perfectly. I ventured to try a few things outside my typical comfort zone and Ryan assured me that I wouldn't regret anything. They were sure to reach out the day prior to confirm our menus and as we had mentioned we were celebrating our 2nd wedding anniversary they printed out special menus for us to congratulate us. If I could give more than 100% I would but it was perfect. Thank you Vida for making our night so special we will forever remember it.

    This was a great date night choice. We loved the 4 course meal everything was delicious and esthetically pleasing. We have already discussed a return visit in the future!

    We did the tasting menu and all of the food was delicious! Each dish was unique and very balanced. We really enjoyed the food! The cocktails were also very good! The experience took over 3 hours. The staff and manager realized this without us bringing it to their attention and they made it right on the bill. Would definitely recommend the food, but would plan for plenty of time if you’re doing the tasting menu.

    The service is impeccable and the food is delicious and inventive. Our server, Alexander, was friendly and attentive and also very knowledgeable. We enjoyed learning about the wine from him and their official somm, Jared. At the end of the evening we had to speed up the pace and they handled that very well.

    This was one of the best dining experiences I have ever encountered. The food was artistically plated and packed full of flavor. The sommelier was very knowledgeable and we also shared a connection to the Pacific Northwest, where I live. The service was excellent. The front of the house team moved like ninjas and were very attentive. This was a gem to find here in Indianapolis! I recommend that any foodie or gourmand please try this place. You will not be disappointed.

    Have always enjoyed Vida before and this time was no different. They were able to accommodate my dietary sensitivities. Every dish was beautifully presented and flavorful. We enjoyed the regular wine pairing and the reserve wine pairing. It was fun to compare their choices. Service was prompt and attentive. Halfway through our meal the pleasant atmosphere was disturbed when one of the staff raised all the blinds including the one by our table. It would have been nicer to have had the choice to raise it or keep it lowered but that was not offered. As for value, you definitely get high quality food well prepared and artistically presented. We think it’s a reasonable value.

    This was one of the best meals my wife and I have had in a long time. We had the four-course dinner. Everything was perfect. The food was amazing without being fru-fru: delicious and imaginative seasonings, raw fish presented elegantly and complemented with different tastes and textures, perfectly cooked meat and fish entrees, and wonderful desserts. Service was impeccable and our waiter was friendly without being obtrusive. We left full but not overstuffed. We were just passing through Indianapolis but we have already told some friends who live near Chicago that they should find their way to Vida.

    Jared and his team deliver a Master Class in dining every single time. Service by Gabriel and Isiah was spot on. Food was amazing and the wine pairings were incredible. Far and away the best restaurant in Indianapolis.
