Costa Vida - Ogden

Malek was very kind and made sure i was well taken care of

I really enjoy the food at Costa Vida. The Barbacoa Beef is my absolute favourite. My one and only complaint is that they make online orders at the same station they take in-person orders at. My family has legit stood there for 5+ minutes without a single hello, or without any eye contact with the employee who is taking the orders. It is really awkward to stand there without ever being acknowledged. This employee slapped together 4 online orders as we stood there silently. My entire family nearly left to go across the street to Cafe Rio. Honestly, Cage Rio has very similar menus options and they prepare online orders at a separate station and we are greeted right away. The only reason we chose Costa Vida first is because it's easier to make a right onto Riverdale Road rather than a left out from Cafe Rio ? I understand Costa Vida does not have the setup to make online orders at a separate station, but good lort at least acknowledge the customer standing right in front of you and maybe make them the priority over a customer who is not physical there. I want to add that myself and the other two members of my small family were the only ones in the store so there would have been plenty of time to get the online orders finished after we placed our order. Vegetarian options: Rice, beans, pico, lettuce, cheese, fresh jalapeño, tortillas, tortilla chips, tortilla strips, cinnamon sugar tortilla. Basically a salad and a few options for toppings and a sweet tortilla for dessert.

The food here was delicious as always! They keep the restaurant very clean and the service is fast. We enjoyed the outdoor seating! Plenty of parking spots in the area as well.

I’m really disappointed in their service tonight. The vibe was completely off and nobody working there seemed happy to be there.

Went in today ordered 2 burritos and a salad they made the burritos with little to no meat at all like i’m talking the skinniest burritos i have ever received from a costa vida restaurant. Then they moved on to the salad i ordered and then made a quesadilla instead could be an honest mistake on that but then again they put little to no meat on it at all. if i were to recommend a costa vida i would not list the riverdale location anywhere on the good side i recommend the south ogden on way more.
