Steak Salad
Donn O.

Came to this location after a long day at lagoon. Plenty of parking and many food options nearby. Lines were short and everything came out fresh and delicious. Only critique is that they were out of Dr Pepper. Thank you for great food!

Sweet pork salad "Where's the MEAT"

I ordered a sweet pork salad. I would advise watching when they place your meat in the salad. I think I was lucky to have maybe a thimble full. I haven't had this issue before at other locations.

Never seen this at any costa vida, I LOVE THIS DRINK
Sophie M.

The wait was nothing, it was less than 30sec.The food was so good. The manager was so nice they were very good with Spanish. They had drinks no other costa Vida had. YOU NEED TO GO HERE. My grandma and me saw all the bad reviews but we were like "let's try it", so we went, and it was the best decision we made. I repeat YOU NEED TO EAT HERE.

a plate of food and a cup of coffee

This location is great, the staff is always very friendly; and the food is great! I love their queso! I always get a bean and cheese burrito with medium sauce and it's my favorite! Their tres leches is really good, and I love to add that on for desert! This is my favorite location out of all the ones I've been to! I HIGHLY recommend joining their rewards program! They give you 4$ to start, and every 50 points you get another 4$! Great program if you eat here frequently!

I've always loved this place but lately portions are getting smaller and smaller. Last couple times it was ridiculous.

I'm bumping up my rating to 5 stars. This has become a regular stop for us. We've been a handful of…read moretimes since my last review. Being from California I miss 2 types of Mexican restaurants. The first is super flavorful authentic Mexican. The second is really good, consistent, basic items (enchiladas, tacos, tamales) that you can order in combos. More streamlined. This hits the second need perfectly. The shredded beef (I like it in a taco) is AMAZING! So juicy and flavorful! The tortillas are lightly fried and just crispy enough. Chili verde is my favorite dish in general. The chili verde here is not what I think of when I'm craving that, but it's so good. I just consider it a different item and don't expect to get what I'd get at another type of restaurant. We need variety in life right? The chili rellano is so good! I order it most often. We love the salsa bar too! I love the relaxed fee of the place. We've met a lot of buffet workers and all seem to enjoy their job and are always easy to work with. They also seem to work together well. It's never super busy, so we never have to wait to be seated. But there are always people there. The best part for me is the price. We can eat here for the same price as somewhere like Chipotle (plus a tip of course) but get much better food and a better experience!

Salsa is really good, beans also good, but the rice...... So Good!!!! It pairs so well with the…read morebeans and quesadilla. This place is a great place to eat. Since I can't do higher than 5,I will do it on here. 10/5!!

I got the bowl, rice and quinoa mix without the slaw. I added the grilled chicken for my protein and ginger soy for the sauce. Oh my lordy this was delicious! The portion was perfect, it was hot and the flavors were mild and not sweet at all; perfect! There's a berry punch available to drink and it wasn't too sweet and nicely fruity. We do come here from time to time and always come back!! A great place to eat.

It's a little pricey for the area but good quality. Their menu seems small but there's actually a good variety on it - anything from build your own bowls/salads/burritos to poke bowls and lobster rolls! We tried the Lobster & Crab Melt, Poke Bowl, and some Clam Chowder Tots. My hubby loved his Poke Bowl - it was positively brimming with fresh ahi tuna and all sorts of veggies on top of a rice/quinoa mix. Very light and delicious. I ordered the Lobster and Crab Melt and oommgg was it so good!! It was absolutely packed with huge chunks of soft lobster meat and lumps of fresh crab - all surrounded by melty, gooey mozzarella- just delightful!! Their fries are great too and they have the fry sauce that is a must at any respectable Utah establishment lol. Their Clam Chowder Tots are what they sound like - a bowl of tater tots covered in clam chowder and bacon. This was our least fave thing. The chowder was excellent- but the tots were super over-fried - almost too hard to eat. Next time I'll just get plain clam chowder. The staff are all very friendly, helpful and surprisingly attentive given it's more of a fast food type place. You order at the counter, and if you're dining in they'll give you a number and bring your food out - they also checked on us numerous times to make sure we were happy - excellent service! They have a great location- right in the heart of Station Park. Plenty of parking, lots of shops and desserts nearby, and great mountain views. Bathrooms are clean. Plenty of seating and everything was very clean and well stocked. We'll definitely be back!

We came here for a late lunch with the kids before going to the park. I've got 3 sushi obsessed…read morekids and was worried about how much it would cost with a teenager and two kids but the lunch specials were really good and nobody left hungry. My youngest got the sashimi lunch and they accidentally made the nigiri lunch, so they remade it and he enjoyed both. He's 4 and made a serious dent in both of them. The rest of us got the 3 roll daily special and it was perfect. I need gluten free and they were very accommodating. He even let me know that there were changes they could make to the bento box if that's what I chose to make, but to simplify, I went with the sushi. I highly recommend the sweet vegetarian roll. I don't remember the name of it, but it was the best roll! We definitely got out for a great price for five people and will come back again if we're in the area. The service was phenomenal. Gavin was our server. He answered all our questions and had a smile even with all the difficult questions. It's a great location with lots of seating and a few neat art pieces on the wall. This location was very kid friendly and accommodating.

It had a coating all over it that i could scratch off with my fork. It smelt and tasted unlike any green tea i have had before. The rolls were improperly rolled, rice was crumbling off as soon as the chopsticks touched them. Some rolls hardly had enough rice on them to cover the seaweed. My aunt found a bone in her sunset roll, and it was big. In my 19 years of eating sushi, this has never happened to me. The owner tried to make it better by bringing another roll and mochi. But nothing was to be fixed, we were all already disgusted. We didnt even want to eat the rolls anymore. The sushi chefs and maybe their dish washer need better training. This was my aunts favorite sushi place for a long time, but it has gone downhill. It also seems as if theyre team was failing to clean off dirty tables, we sat there for an hour waiting for our food. And two tables near us were filthy, no one ever came to wipe them down. Very dissapointed.
