Buena Vida was recommended by a friend and it did NOT disappoint (Thank you Sarah!). The aguachile was outstanding ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Probably one of the best that we have tried in a while. We also tried the tostada de pulpo , on point ! Our server was Benjamin , super funny ! The price was reasonable.

Visiting Loreto BCS with my church group, my friend Liz Ramirez suggested Buena Vida for dinner. She and 2 other friends enjoyed a great dinner. They have an extensive menu. I ordered the Molcajete Mar y Tierra, skirt steak and shrimp great taste. Friends ordered Tostadas de Ceviche and Empanaditas, also great. If visiting Loreto consider Buena Vida for dinner.

Loreto has a bunch of great restaurants, but this one is the best. We’ve eaten here many times and nothing on the menu has ever disappointed. The service is great (we always enjoy interacting with Benjamin) and it’s impressive how efficiently, quickly, and calmly everything runs, even when the restaurant is packed. And what Buena Vida review would be complete without comment on the delicious margaritas?! Cuidate! Prices are also very reasonable. Gracias.

The food was bomb.com the customer service was great. The drinks are tasty and prices are reasonable. If you’re in the Loreto area I recommend this restaurant!!! The octopus tacos🔥

Great food! Caution.. very strong drinks. Reasonable pricing. Phenomenal mixed seafood with octopus, and tended steak. Seafood tacos with cheese were large and filling. Typical Baja atmosphere and service. Not in the tourist center so a bit hard to find, but well worth the search. If I lived here I would be a regular customer.

On our first day in Loreto did ask a few people at the tour booking offices what is a good fish option and Buena Vida was mentioned. Wonderful relaxed atmosphere, cats, dogs, and chicken roamed around the area, and the yellowtail fish was fantastic! A good introduction to the seaside vibe of Loreto!

Our landlord recommended Buena Vida as having the best seafood in town. He did not lie. We ordered fish ceviche, which was delicious and was piled high. Both entrees (one grilled sea bass in garlic sauce, one grilled shrimp, both with rice and lots of crisp vegetables) were delicious. Pleasant open-air patio, with several cats who visited tables, but minded their manners.

This is the best meal I've eaten in all of Baja. My wife had the poblano stuffed with smoked fish. I had the pollo taco and fish taco. Fantastic. The salsa was great. Top that off with a mango margarita. Delicioso. Benjamin, Mauricio, Candi and Brian were the staff. Thank you so much.

I have to say that this place is... FENOMINAL! We were in Loreto for 3 days and ate here twice it would have been 3, but they are closed Mondays. Everything we had was delicious! Thanks to Chef Leonard for taking the time to stop by our table to chat with us and his staff for providing excellent service.

We love the yellowtail tiradito there! It was a pleasant surprise. We had whole fried fish with pulpo, pulpo tacos(abit dry), shrimp tacos were decent. We love the raw items better! Had a drink with passion fruit. Yum. There are cats and dog in the restaurant, feeding them may not be a good idea as they come really close to you. We are determined to be back again for the raw fish!!! As my kid says. I want good life!

Out riding bikes through Loreto and came across Buena Vida. A little off the beaten path, but well worth a stop. Food was really really good! Service was great and bonus to have a few animals roaming the outdoor patio. Very nice.

The clams au gratin was excellent and the fish ceviche was very good, though we couldn't figure out what kind of fish it was. Service was excellent and the atmosphere very nice with Mexican music playing softly.

I ordered a ceviche rojo, and the waiter suggested a combination. I went for it: Big Mistake, first of all the double charged for it, and there's no red in it. Is a fruit salad with fish in it, very disappointing 😞. You don't taste the ceviche flavor whatsoever. They fancy it plated, but not ceviche at all.

Was rushed to order, asked for a minute, the waiter stayed standing in front, till I gave in and just got what my acquaintance ordered. Chocolate clamp, would have been OK if not covered in cheese. Overwhelmed the clam speciality for the area. Idk might be a good restaurant, wish I had a minute to review the menu. Form entering literally had less the 5 minutes to look at menu and order, asked for time but was pressed to order. Idk
