Leave a ReviewWe all loved the food and environment outdoors
Nalu Vida could easily rest on the laurels of their location, but they do not- the food here is beyond excellent. Their menu is so good, in fact, that my wife and I had our rehearsal dinner here. Franceska and the staff went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. I genuinely can't recommend Nalu Vida enough. Highlights: the zesty orange marmalade shrimp, mini tostadas la tierra, and blackened salmon are all to die for.
