The food was pretty good. Seems like a better menu than when it was Azteca. The menu can use more seafood aside from shrimp.The service was excellent! The waiter was attentive and responsive as well as courteous.They had Mariachi singers that were fun and very engaging. They sang our requested song and an additional song that fit very well with the moment.Kid-friendliness: A restaurant for the whole family.

5 stars for food! Delicious and affordable. 3 stars for service because- I ordered online - when I picked up my food, there was no one in sight, but there was a sign telling customers to wait for assistance before taking their order. I didn’t have time to wait. 3 stars for the atmosphere - looks like a great place to dine, but we ordered take out, so I can’t say for sure. Overall I definitely recommend this restaurant and will go there again

Food is good, generous servings. We both ate fajitas- chicken for me, beef for him. All was good, with a skinny margarita which was great. We have been here different times and keep coming back. The only real complaint is that we often have to ask for our silverware when we come.Parking: Front, side, back.

It's always a flavorful time at Vida Mexicana. Vida Mexicana is our go-to sit down Mexican restaurant in the Wallingford area for lunch and dinner. It's located in the Lowe's Plaza next to Chick-fil-a. The dishes are so full of flavor, saucy and fresh. I will crave for their enchiladas. Last time I dined in, I got the Enchiladas Vegetarians. Served with a bright, colorful, green spinach sauce, the enchiladas were stuffed with freshly roasted zucchini, squash, mushrooms and corn. It's so delicious. They have a vegetarian section on the menu too. My favorite dish is the Shrimp Chipotle. A medley of shrimp, mango, pineapple, zucchini, onions, peppers in a slightly spicy, cream chipotle sauce, served over rice. This is a must try. A couple other dishes people in my group have liked are the Carnitas Tapatias and Veggie Yucatan. I do like that Vida's menu isn't overly complicated like some other Mexican restaurants. Every time we dine in, the staff and our waiters have been so nice and attentive. Everyone we encounter throws friendly vibes, from when we are first greeted in and when we leave. The restaurant hardly gets busy, likely from the other food options near by. They all don't know what they are missing.
