    If you're trying to find a great Mexican place to eat, this is the place! The service is amazing, they ask you kindly what you want, they provide you with whatever you need. The food here is so good, there are different types of authentic Mexican food; they also have a kids menu. The feeling here is alive, with the music while you're eating, it makes you feel like home, makes you feel like you're family. This is a perfect place to enjoy time with your family. If you having a big party over, it's better to call to reserve space, customer service here is also great.

    Amazing art work

    The best Mexican food hands down !!! I been coming here for 4 years already and I won't change it for the world. The food and drinks are always on point. The service always sweet and understanding! Love it ! The place gives you Mexico in every wall

    Wow! What a colorful and festive first impression. Vista Hermosa is lively with over-the-top color......everywhere. Seems like this spot is buzzing right in this part of Soundview- feet away from the 6. Service is pleasant all around. Our server even made sure to warn us about the Salsa 'being real spicy' (turned out it wasn't- thank you Jesus!). Music added another upbeat layer with Mexican Pop. My Mom loved her Mexican coffee with hints of Cinnamon but my Tamarind Juice, was bland. Menu has lots to choose from and decided on Shrimp Tacos. Unlike me, my Mom, can stomach any type of meat and settled on a Bistec (Steak) with a Sope and Grilled Cactus. My 3 tasty Shrimp Tacos, were packed real nice with queso, Cilantro and lettuce- and I was in flavor heaven when I added a squeeze of lime to them. Mumsy took notice that our Lunch came out too quick- including her Steak. Unfortunately, my Mom complained (in Spanish) that her Steak "felt like a piece of rubber". Hey, can't control what the lady says. Anyhow.....It was a nice Shrimp Taco bliss for me. Just kind of wished, my Mom had a similar experience like I did- with her Entree. They have several things going for them- they just need to put more priority on food quality. I'm going with a 3 and a 1/2 on this one. There aren't many Mexican restaurants in Soundview and I think Vista deserves some kind of a shout.

    I'm glad I ordered from this place the birria tacos . So delicious . I been ordering from Uber eats but now I want to try them in person because the amazing bulldog I see they do . I will be visiting soon.

    Really great food and music. Very authentic! The service is nice and cool! I have no problems with this place!

    Chicken Burrito

    The food is okay... I like that they added a salad with the burrito. However the burrito was poorly assembled & became one sloppy mess to eat. Presentation & assembly is important to food especially ones that will be eaten by hand.

    Birra Birria tacos con consome ..
    Deé K.

    Great service, great drinks .. however the food is overpriced and not worth it .. I got the Birra tacos , they were missing the flavor ! Tasted like nothing honestly..

    Sope, taco, and guacamole.
    M. K.

    3.5 Food was delivered quickly. Seemed a little pricey for the serving size. I ordered quacamole, 1 taco, 1 sope and 2 bottles of water. I did add avacodo on both, but with tip it was 30$. The food was pretty good I guess, the guacamole could have used a little more flavor.

    My favorite dish from the menu is the beef soup which cost $13 dollars. Usually they give you a good portion of beef, but today as another time this month they sent only 4 little pieces and a ton of carrots. And I even told the lady to be pay attention to my order. This soup should be renamed as carrot soup. I felt rob!! Unacceptable, I even sent a uber to picked it up. $30 to the garbage.

    Chicken flautas topped with lettuce and avocado
    Mora B.

    Lived in the neighborhood for over 10yrs and always overlooked this place boy am I mad I did!!! Went here with my mom last night and ordered take out I had the chicken flautas and my mom had the carne taco salad both meals were great I love the rice and beans and the green sauce. To my surprise I didn't know that had their Liqour license guess that's what I get for judging a book by its cover lol but will def be back to have more food and order drinks the selection was pretty decent overall enjoyed the food!!!

Our waitress was so friendly and have great recommendations. Both the linguine frutti di mare and gnocchi with pesto gorgonzola sauce were phenomenal.

Everything was a 10/10 and we had lots of leftovers because the portions are pretty much family size. Accessibility: there are 3 tables outdoors on the sidewalk, all are easy to access but square 4 tops are better.

The crispy octopus easily rivals anything I've had in Manhattan, super tender with just the right crisp. The cassava hash browns were so good I was almost annoyed by how simple they were. Paired with a rich, meaty sauce and a fresh fennel crunch, the whole dish was incredibly balanced. The wings were the most straightforward item on the menu (in the best way), lightly spiced, slightly sweet, and great for picky eaters. Someone needs to give the bartenders a raise. I ordered three drinks just to test consistency--every single one was balanced, spirit-forward, and not overly sweet. The presentation was different on each one and felt intentional without being gimmicky. I've seen some of the lower Yelp ratings and they mostly call out price, but this is very much a you get what you pay for situation. The quality of the food, the portion sizes (especially for this level of execution), and the overall intentionality behind the menu justify it in my opinion. Service was excellent. They squeezed me in last minute, and my waiter, Dionicio, handled my coconut allergy (not easy at a Dominican spot) with real care and ease. The space itself is worth mentioning - moody, mushroom/mossy interiors. Super cute, very well thought out, and definitely a place I'll be coming back to.

    This spot has become one of those places I genuinely look forward to returning to again and again…read more Every visit feels easy and welcoming the moment you step inside. The team here knows how to make you feel taken care of without ever being overbearing--just warm, attentive hospitality that sets the tone for a great meal. The menu is full of dishes that feel thoughtfully prepared, and everything I've tried has been consistently flavorful. The lamb entrées are outstanding--tender, perfectly seasoned, and incredibly satisfying. Their steaks are just as impressive, cooked beautifully and full of rich flavor. It's the kind of food that makes you slow down and enjoy every bite.What really stands out, though, is the atmosphere. It strikes that perfect balance between relaxed and elevated, making it ideal for a cozy dinner, a laid-back evening with friends, or even a casual drink at the end of the day. There's a lot of intention in the details--lighting, décor, textures--which creates a space that feels both comfortable and polished without trying too hard. Every time I leave, I'm reminded why this has become a favorite. Great food, genuinely kind service, and an environment that makes you want to stay a little longer. Absolutely a place worth recommending, and one I'm always happy to return to. 5/5.

They had the option to choose fresh fish sitting in the ice or cooked food from the kitchen. I opted for grilled branzino, shrimp and veggies. My family ordered the fried options. All cutlery and plating are plastic just fyi so it's a casual place. Also relatively loud Spanish music playing the entire time. not an issue but I did have to ask her to lower the volume because it was only 5 pple in the entire restaurant and I couldn't hear our convo at the table over the music. The timing of when the food came out was interesting so fried food first. I was waiting for my grilled food for another 10 mins and the rest of the dishes came out separately within 5-10 mins of each other. The fried food was not fresh but frozen. When questioned, the waitress said everything was fresh we can tell it was not. To preface we eat seafood often so we can absolutely tell. It would've been fine but the shrimp itself was tasteless, soggy/moist under the batter and the batter was falling off because of it. I would dare say the shrimp was pre cooked and frozen before it was fried. No flavor and chewy. My mom and grandma said the fish was okay it had a very fish stick look to it but no real complaints about the fried fish. (Whiting and catfish) My grilled food was just okay. The vegetables were solid I ate that with no issues, onions, peppers and eggplant. The branzino was a good texture asked for it to be butterflied but no real flavor. I had to add salt and pepper for taste. The shrimp was also okay but nothing to write home about. I wasn't super impressed but it was okay. Not sure if I would come back until I hear there's some growth culinary wise.
