    Michelada- Tecate Light
    Abigail R.

    Don't hate me Wiilowbrook, but I liked this location better! Here is why: [[HIGHLIGHT]]The entertainment was great and not unbearably loud. Just right and I enjoyed it while still being able to hear others.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very nicely designed snd the party rooms are w nice touch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Waitress was top notch and the Estrella Jalisco girls were here and we got free beer! No complaints about my chile con queso like what the others reviews stated. They have perfectly sweetened sweet tea and all our food was great.

    ughhh this sucks to make. i've had this location 3 times since its opened up. the first 2 times ive been defending it because its been super good. this time is different:/ we ordered this for lunch and got it delivered to the office. i ordered the seafood enchiladas. the crawfish is overly fishy and hard, the shrimp is overcooked and hard and doesn't have much flavor. they really threw this in the microwave. that sucks. the refried black beans are delicious but they're lukewarm. the rice is fried rice? i was expecting mexican rice but that's cool i guess. it still tastes good. yeah ill just have a chips and salsa. [[HIGHLIGHT]]vida mariscos please do better i love the ambiance and the food tastes good when its done right please dont make me not like yall anymore[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Previous experience was in the evening and it was extremely loud music that the waitress had to yell over. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This time (December 2nd) we went right when they opened at 11am and it was much more enjoyable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great service. Food was good. Will say that the steak was cooked beautifully, just had no seasoning at all. Now later in the week checking credit card statements we see that they added $8 on top of the tip that was already given. We closed out our bill on the portable kiosk that is brought to the table. I'm not sure who has the authority to do this , the waitress or someone in management but it's very shady. The credit card company gave us the $8 back. I don't know if I'll go back to a Vida Mariscos but if I do it certainly won't be this location.

    Mexican ambiance and seafood go together like Super Bowl Sunday and tailgating! This is the spot to catch a beer, watch the game on a bunch of tv sets, hold a party in their party room or listen to live music! It's not a quiet atmosphere- it's alive. I love it and the fresh quality seafood. When you visit central america, you get that fresh Caribbean meal with a Latin twist and when I come back home to Houston, it's a crave. The great news is our city is international and this is a foodie city so we are in abundance! 4 stars is the service...pack your patience because it's just a lot of people and lots of tables and lots of beer...worth the wait- I promise! Don't miss out on the agua frescas or the dessert. Seafood is also fried in clean grease- this is the game changer. Salud!

    This was my first time trying out one of the Vida Mariscos locations. The building itself is very large, capable of handling bigger group sizes and smaller groups as well. Where everything fell a bit short was with the live music they had this night -- perhaps it is part of their concept, but I found the music to be incredibly loud to the point of affecting the dining experience. It made it difficult to hear each other speak across our table and made service for our waitress difficult as she couldn't hear our orders well. The food itself was serviceable, I think that for its price point you can find better at other locations much closer to Houston. Of course, this is quite out of the way for me but even if I lived closer i'm not sure I would find myself returning here.

    This place is huge. We thought there'd be a long line when we visited here on Mother's Day weekend. The parking lot was packed but there was no wait. Even the wait for food once we ordered wasn't too long. The drinks were refreshing and not too strong. Everyone enjoyed their meals. I had a trio of enchiladas. My favorite was the cheese enchilada the shrimp and chicken were good too. The desserts were delish. We look forward to going back and trying more dishes.

    Food was always amazing! Very tasty and presentable. Service was excellent! Very accommodating. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is so humongous, clean, and nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Ordered fish tacos on hand made thick corn tortillas with black beans and rice. Came with green hot sauce on the side. Very good. Try it you will like it

    Blackberry margarita so good

    Service was good, this place was packed and loud. We came as a group of 3 girls and just wanted to get some small bites, drinks and catch up. We had to move to the patio so we could hear each other. The drinks were really good! The food was not bad, we got the pulp which I really enjoyed, chips and queso which was fine, a quesadilla and some empanadas. One friend liked her quesadillas and the other didn't like her empanadas. We also got the corn dish that was under appetizers and it was so so good! There was a fight that broke out while we were eating, police had to be called. Think the guys were drunk so I'm not sure if this is a regular thing or not. I also got a mango cheesecake to go, the flavor was ok, the mangoes were not ripe and really hard. I probably wouldn't order it again.

    Food is soooo good. Service is great and drinks are strong! I love that they give a tonnnn of onions when you order fajitas. Their octopus is tender and flavorful! The chicken fajitas are juicy and flavorful unlike the other places. I've always had dry chicken fajitas at other establishments. Portions are big. Def would recommend and will come back to try more dishes.

    Bien, estuve esperando a que abrieran este local , porque había estado mirando los anuncios en Instagram y bueno la vdd no me ha decepcionado, la atención es rápida y muy amables todos , servicio rápido y la comida está sabrosa, pedimos diferentes platillos y todos estaban deliciosos , hay aguas de fruta natural y sirven antes del platillo unos deliciosos panecillos con mantequilla calientitos , en fin si volveré a visitarlos .
